Cultivate Connection Podcast

We’re back for Season 2! In this episode, we dive into what it means to step into a new season; both in life and in faith. Drawing from a recent sermon about the threshing floor and the image of separating wheat from chaff, we explore how God invites us to let go of distractions, unhealthy habits, and burdens that weigh us down.  Our hope and prayer is that as you listen, the Holy Spirit high...

Welcome to the season finale of the Cultivate Connection podcast. We thought it’d be fun to end with this “Sacred and Silly” episode, where we pull questions from a random generator and answers on the spot. You’ll hear stories about finding God in the ordinary of everyday things, embarrassing ministry moments, comfort food confessions, and what we’d cook if Jesus came over for dinner. This was a f...

What does it mean to walk in the power and authority of God? In this episode, we explore how Jesus modeled both, and how we, as believers, are called to partner with the Holy Spirit to do the same.

In this episode, we explore the power of our words and the deeper heart transformation behind lasting change. Inspired by a simple but profound quote; “If you can change your words, you can change your lifestyle. But to change your lifestyle, you have to change your heart.” This conversation unpacks how our words reveal what’s really going on beneath the surface.  Whether you’re stuck in a cy...

We’re not meant to do life—or faith—alone. But showing up real in community? That takes courage. In this episode we talk about what it means to live authentically with others, especially in community. From past wounds to people-pleasing, there are real reasons we hide. But there’s also real freedom when we take the risk to be known. This conversation isn’t about pretending to have it all together;...

Who is the Holy Spirit—and why does it matter? In Episode 9 of the Cultivate Connection Podcast, we explore the often-misunderstood third person of the Trinity. Not as a vague force or distant power, but as a personal guide, comforter, and empowering presence in our everyday lives. Whether you’ve been cautious, curious, or confused about the Holy Spirit, this episode is an invitation to deeper con...

Your thoughts shape your life. But what if the thoughts you’re believing aren’t true? In this episode we’re talking about the process of renewing the mind; what it actually looks like to identify lies, replace them with God’s truth, and create lasting transformation from the inside out. This isn’t a one-time fix. It’s a daily process. But it’s how you move from stuck to free, from anxious to...

Who is Jesus—really? In this episode of the Cultivate Connection Podcast, we take a raw, honest look at Jesus beyond Sunday school answers and religious performance.

Feeling stuck? You’re not alone. In Episode 5 of the Cultivate Connection Podcast, we explore the real reasons we get stuck—spiritually, emotionally, even relationally—and how to break free.

In this episode, we tackle one of the most foundational, and often misunderstood questions of the Christian life: Who am I? Through honest conversation, personal stories, and spiritual insights, we explore how our identity is shaped by two key truths: 1. Who God says we are in His Word (our shared identity as children of God) 2. How He has uniquely wired each of us with gifts, desires, and purpose...

We’re diving deep into one of the biggest questions of all: Who is God?
