He's one of my favorite pastors, authors, and fellow Georgia Bulldogs (GOOO DAWWWGGS!!). David Platt is back on the podcast to talk about unreached people groups, being aware of the history around us and living in light of those things, and what it looks like to honor brothers and sisters who feel differently about experiences than we do. David's newest book Don't Hold Back is incredible. I highlighted, underlined, and cried all the way through it. I highly recommend grabbing a copy to read this weekend!Head over to Urgentneeds.org to see the Radical campaign to reach unreached people that David talked about.. . . . Go to hereforyoutour.com to get your tickets to our upcoming tour this June!Want to gift a ticket to a friend?

Oh it’s always such a treat to sit down with one of my favorite voices, worship leaders, and friends- Christy Nockels. Today we talk all about taking care of our voices, how to know when it's time to start mentoring versus building in relationships, and how sometimes God calls us to pioneer things like Jesus did. Go out and listen to Christy's new album This is the Hour this weekend! Y'all are going to love it!. . . . Go to hereforyoutour.com to get your tickets to our upcoming tour this June!Want to gift a ticket to a friend?

Oh friends. This is a special one. Beth Moore is a real faith hero of mine and I'm so grateful to Beth for her vulnerability and wisdom in this conversation. Her newest book, All My Knotted-Up Life: A Memoir is poignant and important. It's a beautiful and redemptive story and I am so excited to share it with you.(FYI we jump into some pretty deep and tough topics today such as sexual abuse. These topics may be tender to you, so I wanted you to know before you listened so you could care for yourself well. And, for our #miniBFFs, this show may be a bit much for their little ears.). . . . Go to hereforyoutour.com to get your tickets to our upcoming tour this June!Want to gift a ticket to a friend?

There's no better way to spend Presidents' Day than talking to Sharon McMahon! Sharon teaches us about the history of Presidents' Day and balancing disagreeing with someone's actions while honoring their contributions. And we FOR SURE had to talk about her recent experience at the State of the Union, certain things floating in the sky lately, classified documents...YOU GET IT... I just love Sharon and I love listening to her podcast Here's Where It Gets Interesting.
