Investing Without Fear: How We Make Decisions When the Market Gets Shaky 22.06.2026

The loudest voices during uncertain times are often the ones creating the most fear. While many investors react to headlines, market swings, and speculation, the people who build lasting wealth tend to think differently. Today, we're sharing one of our monthly investor calls because we wanted more people to have access to these conversations around investing, economics, and stewardship from a King...

Healing Your Hormones God's Way: What Every Woman in Perimenopause Needs to Hear 18.06.2026

I turned 40 and genuinely did not recognize the woman staring back at me in the mirror. I knew something was wrong, but I had no idea what it was. I was on a mission to get to the root cause of my symptoms. So, when I finally got to sit down with Dr. Tabatha Barber, a triple board-certified physician in OB/GYN, menopause, and functional medicine, and founder of Fast to Faith®, I had a lot of quest...

From Driving Off a Cliff to Living Her God-Given Vision: A True Story of Surrender & Transformation 04.05.2026

A touring musician playing 20+ shows a month, drove her car off a cliff, done with life, until God met her there with a vision that changed everything. In this conversation with Rae Taggett, transformational business strategist and co-founder of Evolved Podcasting, we follow her journey from that near-death moment to living out what God showed her: marriage, family, thriving businesses, and Kingdo...

Breaking the Spirit of Mammon: A Biblical Blueprint for Stewarding Money Wisely 20.04.2026

A lot of people think multiplication starts when more money shows up, but Danielle McAllister's story shows it actually begins in the small, everyday decisions we make with what we already have. I sat down with her to talk about stewardship, money, and what it really looks like to build wealth without losing alignment. We also get practical: budgeting, avoiding lifestyle creep, and learning to man...

When Following God Gets Costly: Surrendering, Pruning Seasons, & Healing from Cancer 13.04.2026

She finally surrendered everything to God on a hilltop, and two weeks later, she was facing a cancer diagnosis with a peace that didn't make sense. I sat down with Dayna Brooks to talk about what really changes when you move from knowing about God to actually surrendering to Him. We get into how that shift shows up in your health, identity, relationships, and leadership. If you've ever felt like s...

One Obedient Yes: Adoption, Redemption, & Multiplying What's in Your Hand 06.04.2026

Life with six kids is full of surprises, and sometimes it feels like you're just figuring it out one day at a time. I sat down with Lynsey Cantlon, a wife, mom, and real estate advisor who has adopted five kids and built a thriving business, to hear how she navigates the chaos with faith and grit. We talk about what it really looks like to say yes to the hard things - adoption, foster care, divorc...

How to Grieve Friendship Loss, Have Hard Conversations, & Stop Parenting from Fear 30.03.2026

You lost a friend, not to a fight, not to a falling out, but to silence, and nobody prepared you for how disorienting that would feel. In this conversation with Joanne Johnson, speaker, coach, and founder of Give4, we get into the real and often unspoken terrain of adult friendships: the seasons that shift, the relationships that fade without closure, and what it actually looks like to navigate al...

Raising Kids And Scaling A Business: Faith-Fueled Strategies To Build With The Right Heart Posture 23.03.2026

Martha Mazor didn't set out to build a childcare empire; she was just a mom trying to figure it out. But somewhere between raising three boys, flipping appliances out of a tiny apartment, and trusting God through some really hard seasons, something remarkable happened. In this episode, Martha pulls back the curtain on how she went from survival mode to scaling thriving childcare centers. We get in...

Doing the Heart Work: Faith, Friendship, & Root Cause Healing with Marissa McCrory 16.03.2026

Some conversations stay with you because they put words to things you've been carrying for a long time. Sitting down with my dear friend Marissa McCrory, we talked honestly about faith, friendship, healing, hard seasons, and what it looks like to bring your real thoughts and feelings to God instead of trying to hold it all together. We also get into comparison, community, betrayal, boundaries, and...

What Is An Investment Fund? Ways to Multiply Your Money and Steward God-Given Resources 09.03.2026

You can work hard for decades, save consistently, and still miss the opportunity to truly multiply what you've been given. In this episode, I break down what an investment fund is, how private investing works, and why understanding your options is such an important part of stewarding your finances. I walk you through the roles of general partners and limited partners and show how money actually gr...

In this episode, I'm talking about what it really looks like to trust again after you've been betrayed and hurt, and not the polished version, but the honest one. The one where you're still replaying conversations and wondering how it all went s...

Before Multiplication, God Must Rebuild the Foundation 12.01.2026

As we stepped into a new year, we found ourselves looking back at 2025 and realizing how much it shaped us, often in ways we didn't fully understand at the time. It was a year that asked a lot of us. A year where things didn't always move fast or feel productive, but where something important was quietly happening beneath the surface. In this conversation, we talk honestly about those moments when...

We've always believed in high transparency, so think of this as us inviting you to sit in the call with us and jus...

When Life Feels Heavy: How To Walk Through Negative Thoughts, Hormones, & Spiritual Pressure 05.12.2025

Some days just feel heavier than they should, and I want to be honest about what that looks like instead of pretending it's all together. I talk about how easy it is to fall into comparison, isolation, or feeling like you have to hold it all together, even when life is overwhelming. I share the thoughts I wrestled with, the lies that crept in, and how it felt to hear someone say, "You're not crazy...

From Lost to Fully Alive: A Story of Faith, Courage, & Transformation 17.11.2025

Sometimes, the people around you can change your life in ways you never expect. I sit down with my amazing niece, Talia, to talk about her journey from chasing acceptance in college to finding real freedom and purpose through faith. We share how consistent love, prayer, and simply living your beliefs can have a lasting impact, even when you're not trying to force anything. It's a powerful story fu...

The Power of Saying Yes: Community, Flexibility, & the People Who Multiply Your Life 03.11.2025

In this episode, we're sharing what really went down behind the scenes, from fasting and big life transitions to a surprise invitation that turned out to be exactly what our family needed. It's a real and unfilter...

One Year Sober: Why I Quit Drinking & How It Transformed My Life 20.10.2025

Some nights, a glass of wine just feels like the easiest way to relax, have fun, or be the "fun version" of yourself.

I talk about the surprising freedom, clarity, and energy that came from saying no to alcohol, an...

Bitcoin Basics for Kingdom Living: A Faith-Based Perspective on Digital Currencies 06.10.2025

The first time we heard about Bitcoin, we thought it was a scam. The second time, we brushed it off as a fad. But the third time, we realized maybe God was nudging us to pay attention to something we'd been avoiding out of fear. In today's conversation, we're pulling back the curtain on what Bitcoin really is, why digital currencies are worth understanding, and how to approach them without fear or...

How Losing Everything in 2008 Led to a Multi-Asset Investment Fund 22.09.2025

Sometimes it takes losing everything to realize what you were actually building on. Back in 2008, Jonathan watched his entire real estate portfolio collapse, and what felt like the end turned into the start of a whole new chapter. That season taught us a lot about diversification, multiple streams of income, and most of all, what it really means to steward what God puts in your hands. Looking back...

Healing After Betrayal: How to Move from Hurt to Hope with God's Help 08.09.2025

Betrayal cuts deep, and if you've ever been through it, you know it leaves more than just hurt; it lingers with shame, grief, and trust that feels broken. When we shared our story last episode, so many of you reached out and said, "I've been there too." That broke our hearts, but it also reminded us we're not alone in this. And that's why we wanted to do this episode, because your stories, your me...

When Betrayal Hits Home: The Story We Never Thought We'd Share 25.08.2025

6 Months of Dating to 15 Years of Marriage And the Year We Almost Quit 11.08.2025

In this 15-Year Wedding Anniversary episode, we open up about the real stuff: how we dated differently, why we got engaged so fast, what helped us build a marriage that's still standing (and thriving) today, and why purity, prayer, and purpose shaped everything. Raw, real lessons we learned from doing things God's way, messing up plenty, and learning how to keep showing up for each other. If you'r...

What It Really Looks Like to Trust God When Nothing Makes Sense 28.07.2025

Saying yes before it all makes sense? Yeah, we've been there. When we felt God stirring our hearts to move to the beach, we had no plan, no promise it would work, and definitely no roadmap. What we did have was peace and a whole lot of unknowns. In this episode, we're letting you in on the honest, in-the-middle story of what it looked like to follow God when everything in us wanted to stay comfort...

Trading Comfort for Calling: Leaving the Life We Loved to Follow God's Lead 14.07.2025

We had a good life—a gym we had built from the ground up, a close-knit community, family nearby, and a church family. But then came this crazy curveball: God asked us to walk away from all of it and move to a place we never thought we'd live. This episode is the behind-the-scenes of that wild season—when nothing made sense, everything felt risky, and somehow it still became the setup for something...

From Desperation to Divine Redirection: When Your Dream Dies So Something Bigger Can Live 30.06.2025

Sometimes your dream has to die so something bigger can live. We were finally about to buy our first home together—Jonathan had a steady job, a $60,000 bonus was coming, and we had a newborn on the way. Then suddenly, the job was gone, the bonus disappeared, and we were left with no insurance and no clear plan. In this episode, we share what it looked like to keep trusting God when everything fell...
