Holy Grit Podcast- with Phaedra and Josh

Today we talk about New Years resolutions. Do they work or do they fail? Even if the resolution fails, God never does!

Today we read and discuss Luke 2:1–20 (The Birth of Jesus)

A continuation from last week!

This episode we talk about what joy looks like in the waiting season and how Christmas reminds us that joy can begin before the miracle arrives.

We have been thinking a lot about Hannah — but not the Hannah we celebrate. Not the mom of Samuel. Not the answered prayer we shout about. We are talking about the Hannah we overlook. The woman before the miracle. The woman in the middle of pain nobody preached about.

The Kingdom isn’t buildings, denominations, or traditions. It’s not fancy branding or perfect people. The Kingdom is God’s rule and reign inside us — working outward.

Sometimes life leaves you in ruins—emotionally, spiritually, mentally. But the book of Nehemiah reminds us that you can rebuild anything with God’s help.

The enemy doesn’t always knock on the front door — sometimes he sneaks in through Wi-Fi. This episode tackles how parents can protect their children’s hearts, minds, and innocence in a digital world filled with distractions, temptation, and spiritual danger.

The Church of Jesus Christ is holy — but not everyone inside a building is walking with Him. Abuse, hypocrisy, and corruption are not “the church.” They’re the sickness of man. God’s true Church still stands.

When the Devil Can’t Destroy You, He’ll Distract You

Living out faith in secular spaces with grace, wisdom, and courage. Joshua 1:9 – “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Today’s episode is for every person who’s juggling life and feeling like there’s no time left for God. But what if we’ve been looking at it backward? What if time with Him actually helps us manage the rest of it better?

Faith, Friendship, and Worship Across the Miles Ecclesiastes 4:9–10 – “Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up.”

Feels like every time we check the news, it’s worse than the day before. We’re not here to stay stuck in the mess. We’re here to remind each other that God’s still in control and He’s already won.

Last episode, we honored Charlie Kirk. Today, we’re not stopping there. If anything, his death pushes us to ask: What does it take to keep preaching the Gospel in a world that doesn’t want to hear it?

Today we honor Charlie Kirk and discuss Spiritual Warfare.

Today we talk about navigating Christian and non-Christian relationships.

This week, we’re keeping it light but still full of grit. Because joy is not fluff — it’s faith fuel.

Today we talk about how grit (perseverance), grace (God’s kindness), and mercy (His compassion) weave together in the Christian life. “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” — 2 Corinthians 12:9

Today we’re talking about what happens when you pray for things… and it turns out they weren’t in God’s plan at all. James 4:3 – “You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.”

Welcome to Holy Grit—the podcast where we believe you don’t need a pulpit or pearls to lead people to Jesus.

Bring the joy back into faith, explore church culture quirks, and laugh ’til you’re laid out in the Spirit.

Living grateful and wounded—led by the Spirit through it all.

We’ve got folks equating luxury with lifestyle, but let me tell you—being able to wake up, breathe, and tell the story? That’s the kind of wealth the world can’t define.
