The 10.10 Podcast with Sandy Smith

What a fun conversation with these amazing godly women. Proverbs 31:30 says that Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. We talk about what godly women and men should be pursuing and things that really matter in life. 2 Corinthians 4:18 says "while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things wh...

Happy 2024! It is good to look back and reflect on what God HAS done as well as looking ahead and praying about what God WILL do. Living in America, we are so blessed even on our worst days.

Are you making COMFORT an idol in your...

I loved hearing Megan’s story because I see the faithfulness of God who never lets go of His children. Evil people try to tell us that raising a child as a single mom is impossible and worse but we know that God has told us all things are possible with Him and that if He is for us, who can be against us. I also saw the power of community through Megan’s story because in her darkest times, her chur...

As Christians our desire is to follow Jesus and His word in every aspect of our lives. Of course, we all fall short on a regular basis but that should not keep us from continuing to work towards the perfection that Christ calls us to. Jesus says that what we do unto the least of these, we do unto me. Orphans and widows come to mind as well as all children, single parents, the abused and neglected...

It's been a year since the overturning of Roe V Wade and while we celebrate this victory, there is still so much work to be done.  As believers we want to pray effective prayers, right?  The bible tells us that Jesus intercedes for us to the Father.   I believe what God is calling us as believers to do in this season is to PRAY.  He wants us to pray for each other and especially those who are...

I met Tracey and her family in 2020 and you will hear all about that in her story.  Many people will go on and on about how terrible 2020 was and for sure there were difficult and hard parts of that season but there were also moments of glory that might never have happened if our world didn’t go through the shut down.  The bible says that in ALL THINGS, God works for the good of those who love him...

Dive into the ups and downs of Debbie’s search for meaning and truth.  When we are young we can be so caught up in the fruitless vanities of life and can have such a skewed picture of the things that are important. It's almost like we stick our fingers in our ears and scream lalalalala and we put our hands over our eyes and run headlong into deception and false living trying to see if we can d...
