The Saltworks

Send us Fan Mail We finally got him! Pastor Bill Dye, aka Andrew's Dad, aka my father-in-law, aka "Pop" is on the podcast today! It was one of those episodes where sick kids, thunderstorm warnings, sore throats, and overall oppression couldn't stop us. And although I don't think he was a big fan of the attention or public praise, he was a good sport and has such a good sto...

Send us Fan Mail She is fierce, loyal, kind, scrappy, and vulnerable all in one. Erica Johnson is one of my very best friends who calls me daily and has my back. Today she shares her story and let me tell you something, friends. If you have struggled with body image, perfectionism, striving, performing, or struggling to embrace weakness in any way-- this episode is for you. Plus we talk about choo...

Send us Fan Mail Are you a Mary or a Martha? Maybe this question or thought is familiar to you— but is it perhaps more complicated than that? What do we really know about these women? Most often here on the Saltworks, you will hear stories and perspectives from guests who have allowed their lives to display the goodness of God. Whether in hardships, successes, and even in failings. And the guest-b...

Send us Fan Mail Starting this year off with a bang, y'all! Laura Katzenmeyer shares her story, dissects scripture, and overall shares such truth and wisdom. Honestly, she does this every day, but today she shares it with us on the Saltworks. I met Laura this past fall through a women's retreat, and let me tell you, she is a gifted teacher and speaker. And YES! I am trying to get her to...

Send us Fan Mail It's hard to write a description when you're honestly just speechless. This story and this episode... you just don't want to miss it. Aly's spirit just shines wherever she goes, and her story alone has been such a blessing to so many for the last 11 years. However, today she approached the microphone from a place of celebrating miracles, but also from the middl...

Send us Fan Mail Sometimes the last thing we're known for is our story. More often we're known for what we make it and the legacy we lead. This is definitely true of Jayme Stokes, and yet our stories make our legacies that much more powerful. She's been a mom, wife, librarian, teacher, grandparent, principal, and boss. She practices what she preaches, and she brings laughter into ev...

Send us Fan Mail Five years ago we gained the sweetest neighbors, and I cannot wait for you to meet Jim! He is a retired golf pro, a servant, he’s kind, and he’s always moving. But what you might not know are the things he’s had to overcome in his story, and the truth that he’s clung to in his endurance. We talk retirement, overcoming, endurance, weaknesses, and where we ultimately find our identi...

Send us Fan Mail She is a master at events, details, and organization, but I bet you don't know this part of her story. I learned from her today, and I learn from her every day because she's my mom! I've gotten to see her be so many things, wearing many hats and filling many roles, but today I saw her be brave and courageous to share. Come join us at the table as we reflect back on...

Send us Fan Mail The man. The legend. Andrew Dye is on the podcast this week, and you don't want to miss it! While it's not his life story, it is sort of our story in marriage. Let's be honest, he will be a regular here NOT just because it's convenient, but because he's truly one of the wisest people I know, and the person I process things with the most. Today we talk over...

Send us Fan Mail That’s Dr. Emily Jones to you. Today on the Saltworks we're talking all things relationships. Proper attachment, vulnerability, honest confessions, and most importantly, how to make repairs in those relationships.  But truly, is it any wonder that this episode is my longest, because Emily is one of my very best friends AND she has her doctorate in marriage and family counseli...

Send us Fan Mail Things are a little different around here today! This week, instead of a special guest, we’re diving into a text to talk about what to do when we’re struggling with a passage and also to talk about waiting. I know, I know, it isn’t our favorite topic! But maybe that’s why we need today’s takeaways from the Canaanite Woman. She may not be someone I know personally, but her story is...

Send us Fan Mail Attention parents in all seasons!! I cannot wait for you to hear from my wise friend and mentor Cheryl White! She is a wife, mother of four, and an industrious woman. In the words of Andrew Dye, "Cheryl White could have been CEO of any company." And while this is entirely true, her faithfulness and dedication to all the small and behind-the-scenes tasks in her life is wh...

Send us Fan Mail Oh, where to start on Blake Davis? I will not lie and say it wasn't a little scary to have my husband Andrew co-hosting AND Blake as a guest at the same time. I really thought I had my editing cut out for me, but don't worry, they were both on their best behavior. Blake is our Worship Pastor at our local church, he wrote the incredible music for this podcast, and he&apos...

Send us Fan Mail I am SO excited for you to hear from one of my favorite people on the planet! She is a gift everywhere she goes, and she’s the reason I’ve achieved my dream of having an English accent— but only when I speak French. She’s a teacher, a leader, a mom, a wife, a grandmother, a friend, and an overcomer. Pull up a chair, grab a warm drink, come for the English accent and stay for the w...

Send us Fan Mail We laughed. We cried. (Although you can’t see). We talked all things faith. Join us as Bethany shares the story that pushed me to change my idea for a podcast into a reality. In this episode, we talk ministry, God’s faithfulness, what God requires from us, and how to battle spiritual warfare as we go. It is our prayer that this episode reaches you right where you are and encourage...
