The Fully Alive Podcast

In this episode, we slow down to talk about anxiety, prayer, gratitude, and the peace God gives even when our circumstances don't change.

In this episode, we're talking about the gift of Sabbath, not as another rule to get right, but as God's invitation to rest in a world that never seems to stop. We reflect on anxiety, productivity, family rhythms, and what it means to receive rest as something we don't have to earn. Our hope is that this conversation feels like an invitation to slow down, let go of control, and rediscover the kind...

In this episode of The Fully Alive Podcast, we talk about what it really means to hear the voice of God—and why that can feel confusing, intimidating, or deeply personal for so many of us.

If thi...

In this episode, we continue talking about one of the biggest lies we believed early in marriage: that healthy couples don't fight. We used to think conflict meant something was wrong. What we've learned is the opposite — conflict is normal. The real question isn't if you fight… it's how you fight. We share what nearly tripped us up, the moments we got it wrong, and the mindset shift that changed...

Join us as we talk about where the enemy most often targets people, how we "fight back" in the spiritual realm, and what we'd say to anyone who feels overwhelmed or attacked right now. We'll unpack what the Bible teaches about spiritual warfare, what it is not, and how to discern the difference between a spiritual attack and a natural struggle.  FIND US ON SOCIAL MEDIA Facebook: https://www.facebo...

In this episode, we share a part of our story we've never fully told—the moment our marriage nearly ended, and the unexpected way God met us right in the middle of our brokenness. We look back on those early years when everything looked perfect from the outside, yet inside we were falling apart. And then came one ordinary Tuesday night at church that changed everything. If you've ever felt like th...

We're talking all about adventure—but not just epic hikes or grand trips or thrill-seeking moments. We believe that real adventure is so much more. When you follow Jesus, your life becomes an adventure—sometimes unpredictable, sometimes challenging, but always worth it. 

We are back with one of our favorite episodes to record, "Ask Me Anything." Nothing planned ahead of time, just in the moment, on the spot, Q&A. Where will the conversation lead this time?
