It's been about a year since I met Nona Jones and I've loved getting to know her, learn from her, and laugh with her. We've been trying for months to get our calendars to sync for this conversation, ever since her incredible book Success from the Inside Out released in January, and everything aligned a few weeks ago. We talk about COVID19, her health journey, how her traveling schedule has changed and what she's learning about herself in that, and how Facebook is helping churches in these weeks ...

Y'all have heard Knox McCoy on the show, back in February 2018 when we had him and Jamie Golden on together (they are The Popcast , but you probably know that), but today the KNOX STANDS ALONE and we chat down a million rabbit trails.

Don't forget to head over to YouTube to see our conversation about Compassion Intl, ...

Friends. I thank you in advance for engaging in this conversation and facing what it causes you to feel and what it brings up in you.

I greatly admire Pastor Eugene Cho - for his preaching, his leadership, his writing, his obedience, his advocacy. Every time I've been under his teaching I've left changed, including this conversation today. It's important. I hope you will listen, take notes, and ask yourself the same question I'm asking myself- what does it look like for me to use the privilege I have to advocate for those who don't? Pastor Eugene's newest book, Thou Shall Not Be a Jerk , is available everywhere. We also hop ov...

Mother's Day shows matter so much to me- I love being able to feature moms that will bless us as we listen. Months and months ago I asked Jennie Lusko to be on this exact episode.

Her new book The Fight To Flourish is so incredibly important for all of us in this season. Mom or not, you need this one. Don't forget to head over to YouTube to s...
