Sow in Faith, Reap in His Time

Every life has its seasons—times of planting, waiting, pruning, and harvest. In this episode, we explore how God uses every season, even the quiet and hidden ones, to cultivate something beautiful in us.
So often, we long to see fruit before it’s time, forgetting that growth happens beneath the surface. Winter, though barren on the outside, is never wasted. It’s where roots deepen, character forms, and unseen transformation takes place. In this season of Thanksgiving, and soon Advent, we are invited to slow down, celebrate the harvest, and make space for that unseen work of God.
Through candid conversation, and personal stories, we’ll talk about:
The importance of seasons
The beauty of the harvest
Sowing seeds today to reap tomorrow
Trusting through the waiting
Unseen growth in winter
The gift of Advent
Whether you’re in a season of abundance or barrenness, this episode is an invitation to trust the One who ordains both. Your season has purpose. 
Listen in and be reminded: God is faithfully working in every season of your life.

Fighting for Family

Family is one of the greatest gifts God gives us — but it also requires intentional effort, grace, and courage to protect it. In this episode, we explore what it means to fight for your family through a biblical lens, the necessity to create healthy boundaries while still pursuing relationships, and when it’s necessary to disrupt comfort to preserve what matters most.
We talk about:
God’s intention for family
The choice to fight for not with family
How to become unoffendable
The power of prayer over family
The importance of truth and confrontation in healing brokenness
Realigning priorities to protect unity and purpose
Family is worth fighting for — not through control or fear, but through love, truth, and commitment. Sometimes fighting for family means setting boundaries, seeking reconciliation, and trusting God’s plan through the discomfort.

Jeannette’s Story: Overcoming a Brain Tumor

In this heartfelt episode, we share Jeannette’s powerful story of walking through the unexpected challenge of a brain tumor. Through the ups and downs of diagnosis, surgery, and recovery, Jeannette leaned into the strength of her faith, the love of her family, and the support of her community.
She also opens up about her current project, writing a book that not only chronicles her journey but also weaves in original reflections, comments, and quotes from those who walked alongside her. In addition, Jeannette shares how songwriting became a lifeline, with songs written before, during, and after her experience that continue to speak hope and healing.
This is more than a medical story, it’s a testimony of perseverance, creativity, and the kind of faith that carries us through life’s hardest battles.

2025 Sister Weekend: Leading the Legacy We live

Join us as our oldest and youngest sisters join the conversation at the close of our 2025 sister weekend. We dive into the details, lessons, and special moments we shared. The recording was done at our Airbnb, so it’s a bit raw and unpolished, but it was such a treat having all six of us together, even if our quieter eldest sister mostly just listened. We also did a fun activity at “The House of Colour,” where we learned which season best suits our undertones for clothing and makeup. You’ll have to listen to find out which season we all are!

Prayer: Don’t Miss the Miracle

Prayer is both universal and deeply personal. It’s the thread that connects us to God’s heart, no matter what season we’re in. In this episode, we talk about prayer in the big moments and the small, in times of joy and in times of struggle. We share our own experiences, how it has strengthened our faith, guided our decisions, and deepened our sisterhood. Whether prayer is already a daily rhythm for you or something you’re still learning to embrace, we hope this conversation encourages you to draw closer to the One who hears. Don’t miss the miracle in the hard.

Grief: Holding Both Joy and Sorrow

Grief is not a season we schedule, and it doesn’t always look like tears. Sometimes it shows up in silence, fatigue, or unexpected anger. Other times, it weaves itself into moments of joy, laughter, and memory.
In this honest and tender episode, we open up about what it really means to walk through grief, how it lingers, surprises, reshapes us, and lives alongside joy. We talk about the grief that comes with death, but also the subtler griefs we don’t always name, like the loss of relationships, unexpected diagnoses, or letting go of what once was.
You’ll hear how we’ve learned (and are still learning) to hold space for both sorrow and joy, how our faith anchors us in the middle of it, and why sisterhood makes all the difference. We also share what to do, and what not to do, when someone you love is grieving. Sometimes the best gift is not the perfect words, but your quiet presence, steady love, and the willingness to simply sit beside their pain.
Listen now and be reminded: You don’t have to choose between grief and joy. God can hold both, and so can we.
