Raising Up Christians

We live in a world that hates the valley. We avoid it, numb it, medicate it, distract ourselves from it, and pray it away. But what if the very thing we’re trying to escape is the place God intends to reveal Himself the most? Come fellowship and grow with us! XO- Britt and Heather  #jesus #thevalley #redemption #miracles #testimonies 

Another week, another podcast! Join us this week as we explore what Jesus meant by, “hearts will turn cold”. As believers we must not allow our heart condition to blend in with the cold world that we live in. Come learn and fellowship with us! #cold #hearts #revelation #fallenworld #Jesus #Kingofkings 

Most Christians agree that we’re saved by faith. But if that’s true, why does the Bible place so much emphasis on obedience? Can a person claim to have faith while consistently refusing to obey God? Today we’re exploring what Scripture says about the relationship between faith and obedience. Come fellowship and grow with us! #obedience #faith #christianpodcast #Jesus #God #fallenworld 

In a world filled with noise, fear, and constant speculation about whats coming next, this podcast invites you to return to what matters most: a steady, grounded faith in the middle of it all. In this episode we explore what it means to follow Jesus when life feels uncertain. Instead of getting caught up in predicting the future, we focus on living faithfully today- diving into Scripture, asking h...

What does our faith look like when the church lights are off and no one in our small group is watching? In this reflective episode, we talk about the quiet gap that can exist between the worship we sing and the way we treat people in everyday moments. From social media posts filled with anger to the way service workers are spoken to in restaurants, cruise ships, and stores, we explore a hard but h...

We have an influx of new listeners, so we only thought it right to run another Q and A so everyone can get to know us, or better yet, get reacquainted! Tune in as we tackle some person questions, spiritual questions and maybe one that some would consider "controversial"! Come Fellowship and Grow With Us! #ICE #borders #UnitedStates #Texas #Christian #church #scandal #motherdaughter 

Gratitude is not something that a child is inherently born with. We live in a world where the cultural norms is always shouting, "strive for more". New Year Resolutions shout the concept of, "accomplish more than last year". Vision boards are decorated with extravagant photos of the next big house, the next grandest vehicle, the newest trends in clothing. The same clothing that...

Another week, another podcast. This week we explore what it means to be asked of your opinion, or to insinuate that your opinion is wanted/ needed. What does God say about our opinions? When do we actually have merit to speak our minds, or do we really ever have that merit? Our flesh always wants to be heard while are spirit should always be quick to listen, and slow to speak...that is, if the sit...

On December 7, 2025 at 9:32 p.m., our cherished fan and number one listener, also my Mom and Brittany's Nana passed from this world to Heaven.  It was such a hard time for our family but in the midst of horrible grief, we found God never stood at a distance, that lamenting is a biblical form of prayer, that God does not delight in our suffering.  Join us as we talk about grief and losing our...

The much awaited Q&A with Taylor regarding the miraculous healing of Baby JJ is here! Cannot think of a better way to close out Season 7! It can be very easy to worship and praise God when everything is going well, but what happens when you truly have to put your trust in God... when your child's life is the hands of man, when the term "God's will shall be done" and you are...

Wow, what do you think this all means?  You covet what you celebrate?  Do we understand the full meaning of this?  Do we understand that Jesus should be at the center of everything we do and everything we teach our children?  Halloween is coming around again and more than ever, we need to sit down and talk to our children about the dangers of celebrating pure evil.  Light does not mix with darknes...

Is it just me or is life feeling heavier and heavier? Has the world become more evil or is it merely the fact that we all know about "Breaking News' within the hour due to our smart phone devices and social media? It is easy to become a slave to knowledge, but what happens when even the knowledge is questionable....Now that social media is readily available, and literally any one, at any...

The highly requested and sought after, bone rattling testimony of God's goodness is now Live. Listen to the amazing testimony of Taylor's baby boy JJ, born without a heart rate, parents challenged with the unthinkable decision to either prepare to say goodbye to their baby in this life, or to fight for the life of their child that experts and doctors had warned was already lost, looking...

We have entered into a world of lukewarm Christians and Revelation 3:15-16 talks about the fact that lukewarm is not a Christian at all.  We discuss the many ways we can combat the lukewarm moments.  We discuss scripture that can help us be "on fire" for God.  If someone were to follow you throughout the day, would they see the light of Jesus or would they see the sin of the world?  How...

This week we get an insiders look to what it's like to embark on out-of-country missions. Candice enlightens us on her journey to Costa Rica; what they first thought would be defying moments turned into only the building block for the real testimonial change... oh, to be humbled on a bathroom floor...tune in to find out how God can inspire a seven year old little girl to feel empathy for thos...

We continue today's podcast with a quick nod to last podcast and Shannon's amazing testimony.  The hard testimony is one that will build and feed our faith.  Faith is what we need right now in Central Texas as we discuss the devastating impact of the Guadalupe River flood in the Hill Country.  We discuss the age old question of Where Is God when tragedy is striking His people.  We are be...

Today we have a very special guest, Shannon Church, who will share a powerful testimony of what happens when you finally forgive the most unforgivable actions.  We walk through a childhood of pain and suffering, of silently losing a soul for life.  But what God can do in your life is absolutely amazing.  We see how forgiveness and suffering turn into love and understanding.  Please come fellowship...

What does being "Heaven Homesick" really mean?  Today, we discuss all the things happening in the world that points to end times and the fact that we are all very tired.  This world is not our home and so our souls can feel depleted.  We feel like there is too much worry and pain, suffering and endless stress.  Heaven is our real home and we talk about what that means to us.  We dive int...

Wow what a life we are living where every moment of everyday we are distracted and keeping our minds idle instead of reaching for God.  Our alone time is difficult because society says to scroll or watch t.v., compare yourself to who you see on social media.  The list goes on and so no wonder society is full of anxiety and depression.  We talk about the debilitating way society has kept us all bus...

In today's podcast, we entertain awesome questions in our highly requested Q&A segment.  We dive into questions about discipleship in the home, how to survive periods of spiritual dryness/doubts and questions about how to lead your children in a world full of violence, sexuality and injustice.  We will always point directly to the Bible for actual direction.  Don't be afraid to go fo...

Another week and a new episode! Even a new season!  Welcome to Season 7 as we fellowship and grow together.  Today we really chat is up about servitude, our relationship with God who is the creator of heaven and earth, we talk about Proverbs 31 and how we honor God when we are honorable wives.  How do you approach the throne?  Do you understand the magnitude of sitting with God where you are?  The...

Ministry is such an important part of what a Christian is called to do.  But where should ministry start?  We discuss what ministry looks like for family.  You see, there are biblical verses talking about the importance of beginning your ministry at home with your family.  How can you serve at church when your home is in shambles?  Is God in the center of your family or is God someone we pray to o...

This week we are digging deep into what it means to be in the valley. When life gets hard, where do you find comfort? Do you spend the majority of the struggle talking it over with friends and family, or do you spend your time with Jesus? The valley is a place of spiritual growth, dependence on God, Refining our character, preparation for the mountaintop and a deeper compassion and testimony to sh...

In a society where the world seems to speak louder than God sometimes, what do we do with the thoughts that can take our minds captive?  How can we defeat the enemy when he is waging war against our minds?  Today, we dive into characters from the Bible and scripture that will tell you straight up how to quiet the voices of the world and Satan.  No one is immune from the attacks, but how we defeat...

What happens when someone comes to you and wants your counsel and you need to be honest and tell biblical truth?  Do you shy away from the conversation? Do you give an honest answer?  Are you fearful of offending someone?  We are called to listen and not judge.  We are called to counsel utilizing The Word of God as our instruction manual.  Today we talk about how we approach the truth in a way whi...
