  • Revisiting and being encouraged

    This podcast is one I come back to hoping to see how I will be challenged and encouraged. I just listened to a 2020 episode with Dr. Esau McCaulley and Sheila Wise Rowe. This helped me to think about how to support my brothers and sisters in ministry with paying attention and beginning healing of their own racial trauma.

  • Loved seeing Christmas in Color!

    Sharing thanks for the “Dreaming of a Not-White Christmas” series! We have gained meaningful new perspective on how we in America typically celebrate Christmas and how we can do it better from this collaboration between Nancy Wang Yuen & Jemar Tisby. Hoping for more from this beautiful team!

  • Great conversations

    I’ve been listening to this podcast nearly from the start, but finally felt moved to actually leave a review after listening to the excellent conversation with Min Jin Lee. Highly recommend this podcast (both with past and present host). Thanks for bringing these conversations together.

  • Interesting Guests and Thoughtful Hosts

    I loved Esau McCauley as host and was sorry he had to move on to new projects, but I’m loving Nancy Yuen now too.

    I was so thrilled that Nancy had Gene Yang, author of American Born Chinese, on the show. Great discussion!

Crucifying Expectations to Faithfully Live and Lead with Joanna Meyer
Q: How do we reconcile God's ability to exceed what we expect, while also dealing with a life reality that is sometimes below what we expect?
God exceeds our expectations according to His vision, not necessarily in terms of prosperity. We need to align our expectations with God's kingdom narrative.
Crucifying Expectations to Faithfully Live and Lead with Joanna Meyer
Q: What are some of the most common expectations that you see leaders bring into leadership that may need to be shifted?

Q: What needs to die before the cross to live a life fully surrendered to Christ as it relates to our finances?
