Many of you might have heard about the new IPhone social media app, Clubhouse. The Guardian wrote this about Clubhouse last month: “Part talkback radio, part conference call, part Houseparty, Clubhouse is a social networking app based on audio-chat.

Well, I was blessed with a Clubhouse invite about a month ago, and I can honestly say that it is a marvelously fun time! My experience has […]
Lori Crock and I first crossed paths in the midst of the recent Say Yes to Holiness Winter Summit. I was really excited to hear about all the work she was doing, so I reached out to see if she could come on to the Say Yes to Holiness podcast, and Lori graciously said yes!

If you are unaware, SoulCore incorporates the praying of […]

Happy Second Sunday of Lent! This Sunday’s Gospel shares the story of Jesus’ Transfiguration, and it totally complements the conversation that I had recently with Anne Kertz Kernion, founder of the inspirational greeting card company Cards by Anne.

Greetings! Since we are in the midst of Lent, it’s probably appropriate to confess that I am WAY behind on getting out my latest 1 on 1 podcast interviews, but today begins my seeking to rectify that by sharing each of these wonderful interviews with you.

Brian began The Behold Project as a way to help reduce the stigma of mental health issues and to raise awareness for Christians about those issues while seeking to create a space for those struggling with […]
