To the Table

Welcome  To the Table. Join me and my newest friend, Sarah White, as we talk about motherhood, chasing dreams, unexpected brokenness, and so much more. In this episode, you'll hear how God moved in the White family to bring them exactly where they needed to be for the season they were walking through – the right place, the right community, the right people – every intricate detail aligned to m...

Welcome  To the Table.  Today, my good friends Kayla Cain and Amy Johnston are joining me to talk about a season of unexpected suffering. In this episode, you'll hear how the Lord carries them through a terribly difficult season as a family, which in the end became a miracle of God’s healing that they were able to share with so many people. As always, my prayer is that you are encouraged in so...

Welcome  To the Table.  Today, my good friends Kayla Cain and Amy Johnston are joining me to talk about seasons of unexpected suffering. In this episode, we’re diving into the value of being in the Word together, finding fellowship in unexpected places, and needing forgiveness for believing lies – specifically the lies that the enemy plants in our minds. We’re going in a lot of different, unplanne...

Welcome  To the Table.  Today, my friend Christy Holt is joining me to talk about a season of heartbreak in her life. In my experience, people don’t always share the difficulty in their relationships as quickly as they share loss or grief. As you listen today, I hope you feel encouraged in your own relationships and see the value of surrounding yourself with a community of people who truly want Go...

Welcome To the Table. Today, we’re sitting down together to talk about what’s been going on in the Johnson household. I’m truly grateful for Jenna’s honesty and how she's thoughtfully considering what she (and her family) needs during this time. While the podcast may look a little different, I have no doubt that she will continue to champion this ministry, just from a different seat.   Show No...

Welcome  To the Table.  Join me as we welcome my friend, Morgan Ring, to the podcast. This is one of those conversations that stays with you long after it’s over—at least, that was my experience sitting across from her.   Morgan is our very first guest in our summer series, where we are choosing to look straight at the hard things and the heavy seasons. As she says in the episode, we are truly her...

Welcome  To the Table.   This summer, we are entering into a special series where we’re getting incredibly honest about the hard seasons of life. We’re sitting down with friends who have walked through the deepest valleys and seen the undeniable faithfulness of God—not just through his presence, but through the hands and feet of the community that refused to let them walk alone. I am more than del...

Welcome  To the Table.  Our guest today, Dana Dorris, joins us to talk about something we don’t always stop to consider: what it means to truly feel part of a community when communication barriers exist. Dana shares her experiences with the deaf community and reflects on how those barriers can make connection and belonging more challenging.  In our conversation, she tells us how she became involve...

Welcome  To the Table.  As you’ll soon hear, “church hurt” is a pretty weighty topic, especially now. In this episode, we’re talking about how you can come back to community when you’ve experienced hurt in the past. What is the purpose of the church? How do you enter a new space open to being known and loved by a new community? Our guest, Chelsea Reed, shares her story and perspective on this topi...

Welcome  To the Table.  Are you ever in a space or community that isn’t faith-centered? Maybe you work in a place where faith isn’t mentioned often? Or you sit in the bleachers surrounded by people who may or may not believe in Jesus? In this episode, we’re talking about what it looks like to show up authentically, in all spaces, and love the people around you. This feels like a common theme, but ...

Welcome  To the Table.  Anyone find themselves in a new community lately? Maybe you’ve started a new job, moved to a new school, or joined a new team. Maybe you’ve just started going to a new Bible study, joined toddler time at the library, or reconnecting with a group of friends from a past season. There’s a lot of opportunities to foster new community. My guest this week, Jess Clemons, is here t...

Welcome  To the Table.   Just based on the title, you probably already feel that familiar uncomfortable feeling of stepping outside of your comfort zone.   I’m so grateful that my friend, Katie Racki, agreed to sit down and talk about how hard it can be to seek out new community when your personality tends to be a little more reserved. Regardless of your personality, it can be hard to step out of...

Welcome  To the Table.  We are heading into a new series today – we're talking about why we need community. I know, we talk about this ALL the time here, but we’re going somewhere, I promise. I am sitting down with my sister to talk about what community looks like for us, how they support us (and we show up for them), and why it’s important to live life with others. Grab a seat and join us as...

Welcome  To the Table.  We’re jumping back into relationships today, specifically chatting about the season of engagement. As you’ll soon see, there’s so much of this conversation that is for me and hopefully you too. There are several themes that keep coming up in this episode, but the one that really stands out to me is this idea of obedience – which we often think of when we’re parenting childr...

Welcome  To the Table.  Happy Spring 🌷We’re taking a quick pause to check in with each other and catch up a little bit. Whether you are in a season of crazy busy or blissfully enjoying the new spring season, we hope that you feel encouraged to focus on Jesus and lean into your relationships and community.   Show Notes 🗒️  James Series @ Bethlehem MBC -  https://youtube.com/@bethlehemmbc?si=_pP_-q...

Welcome  To the Table.  Today we’re diving right into singleness and what that looks like for young adults in 2026. One thing you’ll find here, regardless of your current relationship status, is encouragement. If you’re single, our guest today shares so much advice for walking through singleness well. If you’re engaged or married, there’s some good advice on how to love on and care for your single...

Welcome  To the Table.  Life is full of waiting seasons. We are talking about singleness today – we know that we were all made to live in community. Some people are truly called to singleness, and even though we breeze past it, there is such a freedom/blessing in that calling. Other people, though, especially young adults, find themselves single and waiting for “the one”. We’re talking about chang...

Welcome  To the Table.  We’re back with our first episode answering a listener question! Last episode, we talked about what it looks like to live in the world but not of it. This week we’re taking it a step further and talking about what it practically looks like to live life as a believer, especially as a young adult, just getting out into the world on your own.  While some of the answers might s...

Welcome back  To the Table.  When you hear Romans 12:2 – do not be conformed to this world – what does that really mean in your everyday life? What about when you end up choosing a certain path when other people around you don’t see the point? How do we honor the Lord in our everyday life, pointing people back to Jesus? These are some big questions. Join us as we tackle them together. We’ve got a...

Welcome back  To the Table.  Consider this episode a little message from us. There are a few things we want you to know about us and we took this opportunity to talk about it. I hope even in our ramblings, you’ll be encouraged to keep on keeping on. Most importantly, thanks for being here with us. It’s such an honor to have you 🤍  Show Notes 🗒️  Want to find the resources shared here and help sup...

Welcome back  To the Table.  There’s a little hesitation here (and you’ll soon see why) but, we’re talking about our goals for this year. Jenna and I sat down to talk about why we’re doing the podcast still, what we hope happens because of it, and plenty of other things in between. If you are here with us, listening for the first time OR every time, thank you for your support. We’re so glad to hav...

Welcome back  To the Table.  It is such a treat to share this conversation with you today. If you are in need of encouragement, I hope and pray you find it here. What started as a conversation about mentoring quickly turned into a chance to lean in and hear some encouragement and wisdom from a well-seasoned mentor. We all have women in our life that set an example for us, whose walk we’re watching...

Welcome back  To the Table.  We just spent several weeks talking about all kinds of things that you can do to grow your relationship with the Lord. But why? Why does it matter? Why is it worth our time? Today’s guest has plenty of proof to show why it’s worth it. After walking through so many seasons of joy and deep sorrow, you can believe her when she says it matters. It all matters. It all count...

Welcome back  To the Table.  The title gives this one away – which, I guess most titles do. Anyways, we are sitting down together to talk about some of our biggest takeaways from these last several weeks and some new things we’re putting into practice on a more regular basis. Key theme: every bit counts. The Lord knows your heart and he’ll use whatever you commit to him – for his glory and for you...
