Hospitality. Forgiveness. Inner peace. Revival at home. The words we speak. The cost of the dream. It all came up this quarter. This is our Q3 recap, a collection of highlights from the guests who joined us over the last few months. Whether you caught every episode or missed a few, this is a great way to revisit what stuck and decide what to go back and hear in full. Kay Hiromine challenges us to ...

Freedom isn’t just the absence of sin. It’s knowing God — and that changes everything about how you live. In part two with Savannah Carlson, the conversation moves from understanding the gospel to actually experiencing it. Savannah is a speaker, content creator, and freedom coach, and in this episode she brings the kind of warmth and honesty that makes hard truths feel like good news. We talk abou...

What if the reason you keep returning to the same sin cycles isn’t a willpower problem — but a belief problem? Today we sit down with Savannah Carlson — speaker, content creator, and freedom coach from Minnesota — for a conversation that is honest, refreshing, and full of the kind of insight that makes you want to open your Bible and look at familiar verses with completely new eyes. Savannah grew ...

What if the power of prayer has nothing to do with finding the perfect words? Sometimes we approach prayer like there's a formula we need to figure out. Say the right thing. Use the right language. Follow the right steps. And maybe then something will happen. But in Part Two of the Everyday Faith Podcast, Mark Halstensgard challenges that way of thinking. Prayer isn't about arranging words in a sp...

What does it actually mean to live differently because you follow Jesus? It's easy to say our faith matters. But what happens when following Jesus challenges something our culture considers normal? In Part Two of the Everyday Faith Podcast, Mark Halstensgard raises some thought-provoking questions about conviction, compromise, and what it means to stand apart. He even brings up Halloween—an area w...

What if everything you've accomplished still isn't enough to make you righteous? The good things you've done. The goals you've reached. The ways you've served others. Those things can be meaningful, but none of them can earn us a right relationship with God. In this conversation with Mark Halstensgard, Jess reminds us of something important: Our identity in Christ isn't built on our accomplishment...

You can know what Scripture says about you—and still struggle to believe it's true. Maybe you've read that you're forgiven. That you're loved. That you've been made righteous through Jesus. But then you make a mistake. You fall short. And suddenly, all you can see is everything you've done wrong. In Part Two of the Everyday Faith Podcast, Mark Halstensgard challenges us to consider the difference ...

Not every thought that crosses your mind deserves to become something you believe. Some thoughts leave us questioning God's goodness. Others challenge our identity, our worth, or what Scripture says is true. And sometimes, the things we repeatedly tell ourselves can begin shaping the way we live. In Part Two of the Everyday Faith Podcast, Mark Halstensgard explores a perspective on spiritual warfa...

When you hear "spiritual warfare," what comes to mind? Something dramatic? Something frightening? Something that feels far removed from your everyday life? In Part Two of the Everyday Faith Podcast, Mark Halstensgard helps unpack what he understands spiritual warfare to mean—and why it may be more connected to everyday life than we realize. Drawing from Scripture, Mark describes spiritual warfare ...

Spiritual warfare is real. But it probably doesn’t look the way you think it does. That line lands hard in part two of our conversation with Mark Halstensgard, and it sets the tone for everything that follows. Mark serves in prayer and deliverance ministry at his church, and in this episode he brings both spiritual depth and practical clarity to topics that a lot of Christians avoid – spiritual wa...
