Ep 311: Three Strikes? You're Forgiven! Understanding the Gospel of Restoration with Micah Davis
 In this episode, Shanda sits down with Micah E. Davis, author of Three Strikes, You're Forgiven: Encounter a God Who Wants to Redeem Your Past, Restore Your Present, and Transform Your Future, to explore the life-changing power of forgiveness when failure seems all you know.  Micah shares how our culture's "three strikes and you're out" mentality doesn't align with the gospel. Instead, he shows that Christ offers a radical alternative: four acts of forgiveness—giving, receiving, self-forgiveness, and even forgiving God—and invites us into a journey of healing beyond shame. We dive into questions like: How do we stop trying to earn God's favor and simply rest in what He's done? What does it look like to forgive ourselves or the people who hurt us? And how does the gospel invite us into freedom when our past makes us feel disqualified? Whether you're feeling stuck in your mistakes, tired of perfectionism, or longing for a fresh start, this conversation will encourage you to embrace forgiveness, claim your identity in Christ, and live the restored life He intended.

They discuss the biggest misconceptions Christians have about spirituality, how Scripture defines spiritual depth, and why simplicity doesn't have to mean shallowness.

Ep 306: Charlie Kirk, Christian Grit, and Where We Go From Here
 In this episode, I reflect on the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk and what his example means for us as Christians moving forward. Charlie was a man of discipline, conviction, and grit—a reminder that Christianity is not for the faint of heart. We are called to run the race with endurance, to stand firm in the truth, and to live with courage even when it costs us. I'll walk through what it means to have GRIT as followers of Christ—Grounded in God's Word, Resilient in trials, Intentional in faith, and Tenacious for the truth. This is not about applause or comfort but about finishing the race well, as Paul says in 1 Corinthians 9. As we grieve, we don't grieve as those without hope. We remember that our God is unchanging, sovereign, and victorious over death itself. The best way to honor Charlie's legacy is to live with the same grit and conviction, keeping our eyes fixed on Christ, the author and finisher of our faith.

Ep 305: The Four Faces of Christ with George Shamblin
 In this episode, Shanda sits down with George Shamblin, author of The Four Faces of Christ, for a fascinating look at the gospels and the unique portraits of Jesus revealed by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Each gospel writer highlights a different facet of Christ—together giving us a fuller, richer understanding of who He is. Shanda and George unpack why the gospels complement rather than contradict one another, how their distinct emphases point us to the same Savior, and why seeing Christ through these four "faces" deepens our worship and strengthens our faith. If you've ever wondered why we need four gospels, what each writer reveals about Jesus, and how these perspectives shape our view of Him today, you won't want to miss this conversation.
