The Holy Chit-Chat

In this episode of The Holy Chit-Chat, we’re getting personal and talking about seasons of transition, obedience, and stepping into the unknown with God. As Brooke's family prepares to move to North Carolina for a new ministry season, she shares honestly about the emotions that come with leaving behind comfort, familiarity, friends, routines, and the life built over the last 14 years. At the same...

The book of Jonah doesn't exactly kinda leaves us on a cliff hanger... And Jonah isn't exactly playing up to what you would think a prophet should. Even after everything he's gone through and watched God do, instead of giving Him praise... he's mad... We've got a little beef with this guy. But also, we're still kinda like him more than we think we are. Join the chat and let's dive into the last ch...

This week we're chatting about Jonah chapter 3 and getting down to what it looks like when obeying God turns out to look a lot different than you thought it would. And maybe we shouldn't be so hasty to judge the guy. We look a little more like him than we would like to be more often than not. Plus... we've got the cutest special guest on this week's episode! 🤗 So join the chat! Connect with us: p...

Dive into chapter 2 of Jonah with Brooke and Tori and they talk about Jonah's response while he's in the belly of the fish. Was his prayer sincere? Was he praying out of awe to God? Or was he praying as a last ditch effort to save his life? Sometimes hitting rock bottom (or in this instance, the bottom of the belly...) makes us realize that maybe we weren't doing what was right and we REALLY need...

Join Brooke and Tori as the DIVE (😅) into chapter 1 of Jonah! We're taking a few weeks with some "minor" prophets in the Old Testament and this guy... we've got some feelings about. Some justified... some maybe not so much. Chapter 1 opens with immediate disobedience to a direct call from the Lord. And instead of obeying, Jonah quickly says "nope!" and goes the complete opposite direction! ... cr...

Episode 55 is a heavy chat. Brooke unpacks her testimony. This is one episode you don't want to skip. We won't go into details... but it's worth the listen. Connect with us: paa.ge/theholychitchat

We’re back this week diving into John 21, and wow… this chapter hits in a quiet but convicting way. (I mean... WE'RE not quiet...) It’s not the big, dramatic moments of the resurrection—it’s the after. The everyday. The going-back-to-what’s-familiar kind of moments. We talk about the disciples returning to fishing and how relatable that is. When life feels uncertain or we don’t know what’s next, h...

This week on The Holy Chit-Chat, we’re walking through some of the most powerful and emotional chapters in the Gospel of John. Chapters 19 and 20. Yep… we’re talking about the cross and the empty tomb. We sit in the weight of Jesus’ crucifixion—what it meant, what He endured, and the love that held Him there. It’s heavy, it’s humbling, and it’s something we probably don’t pause to fully take in en...

This week, we’re diving into John 17–18… and let’s just say, we tried to stay on track 😅 (spoiler: we didn’t always succeed). But honestly? The rabbit trails made this conversation even richer. In John 17, we get a front-row seat to one of the most powerful prayers ever prayed—Jesus praying not just for His disciples, but for us. Yes, YOU. We unpack what it means that Jesus prayed for our unity,...

In this episode of The Holy Chit-Chat, we walk through John chapters 13–17—some of the most intimate and powerful moments of Jesus’ ministry before the cross. (We also hop on a bit of a soap box towards the end of the episode 😅) We start in the upper room, where Jesus flips expectations by washing His disciples’ feet, modeling radical humility and servant-hearted love. From there, we unpack His c...

In this milestone 50th episode of The Holy Chit-Chat, we dive into John 11 & 12—two powerful chapters that remind us who Jesus is and what He came to do. We talk through the story of Lazarus and how Jesus meets us in our grief, our waiting, and even in what feels impossible. There’s so much to unpack about faith, timing, and trusting God when it doesn’t make sense. Then in John 12, we see beau...

Moving through the book of John in chapters 7, 8, 9, and 10. In these chapters are some of Jesus' greatest comebacks 😂 We may say it every episode through John, but man... we really love this book! Take a listen! Connect with us: paa.ge/theholychitchat

John is such a great book to study and we are LOVING going through the book together! This week we're chatting about the healing at the pool on the Sabbath, a little confrontation with some Jewish leaders, Jesus feeding the 5,000, Jesus walking on water, and so much more! Join the conversation! Connect with us: paa.ge/theholychitchat

We're diving back into the book of John with chapter 4! And it holds SUCH an amazing story with the woman at the well, living water and food that satisfies like nothing else, and the officer whose son was sick. And best of all... Jesus in every bit of it. How many times do we think, that person is too far gone, or, I'm just not good enough for Jesus right now. Welp... you're wrong 🤷🏼‍♀️ And this...

Join us in continuing the conversation in John with chapters 2 and 3! Weddings, flipping tables, being "born again", and a few rabbit trails make this episode well worth the listen. Connect with us! paa.ge/theholychitchat

We're jumping into the book of John and we are PUMPED! And we're not one to play favorites but... this is one of our favorite books. lol At the beginning of the book, John doesn’t begin with the birth of Jesus. He begins with eternity: “In the beginning was the Word…” As we head towards Easter, join in the conversation and read the book of John along with us. Connect with us: paa.ge/theholychitcha...

Episode 044 starts a little series of "Our Stories for His Glory" and we're diving into Tori's testimony! It's heavy and real. From growing up Jewish, to walking the world's way, to jumping into a ministry with both feet that evolved into a "cult" (😳), to getting out, and how Jesus was right there through it all. It's a wild ride. But it's one of faith through the toughest time. Join the conversa...

What should it look like to share your testimony? Especially when you're sharing the Gospel? Let's chat about what that looks like. It's actually way easier than you think. And regardless of how "good" you think your story is, your story is yours and brings glory to God. It's not about us, it's about Jesus and what he's done in our lives. And ultimately, our purpose of our testimony is to share Je...

We're back!!! After our break, we start back with episode 42 talking about how on earth we share the gospel. If you're a new christian or a long time christian, our call is the same... share the gospel. But how? Josh joins us in chatting about what sharing the gospel looks like and how it can look a little different for each person. Have some thoughts? Connect with us on any of our socials or shoo...

🎄 It's Christmas time!!!!!! Read and unpack Luke 2 with us and let's talk about a little different of a perspective on Christmas... Maybe... just MAYBE... we've taken this holiday a little too far 😬 because it's definitely not all those cliché Christmas words we throw around like "peace" and "joy" and "calm". It's become more like "chaos" and "stress" and "obligation" 🫠 Join in the conversation...

This is it! The last few chapters in Genesis! In this episode, we finish up Genesis with chapters 48, 49, and 50. We've spent a lot of time in the first book of the Bible and it's been a great ride. We've learned a LOT (and have gotten real distracted 😅) along the way but it has been awesome diving into the Word in greater depth than we have before. Don't miss this chat about the last bit of the...

In this episode, we really try to lock down that "even if" mindset. Which... isn't easy. In fact... it's one of the most difficult things we wrestle with as christians. We think our plans are better and when they don't work out how WE want them to, we not exactly happy campers. But hear us out... what if we changed our thinking to "even if it doesn't happen the way I think it should, God will stil...

Let's dive into Genesis 46 and 47!!! We are at the end of Genesis and... the end of Jacob's life 😬 During this episode we talk about Jacob's big 'ol family traveling to Egypt, the wild emotional reunion with his son he thought was dead for 20+ year 😳, where they settled, and how God provided ALL the things plus some! But what's crazy is that even though Jacob and his family (the Hebrews) were an...

The girls are back together in this one!!!! 🥳 And you can tell it's been a few minutes 😂 It may seem there are rabbit trails abundant, but we've got a lot on our minds and a lot to unpack. In this episode we dive into allowing the Lord to work in His timing. He always knows what's ahead and has a plan for us even if we don't see it. Sometimes he lays it out in front of us and it can be a little...

In this episode of The Holy Chit-Chat, Josh from "Good Morning Josh" podcast is with us again to dive into Genesis 45. Joseph finally reveals his true identity to his brothers. After years of separation, heartache, and testing, this moment is filled with emotion, grace, and the unmistakable hand of God. We talk about: The power of forgiveness even after deep betrayal How Joseph’s faith shaped his...
