In the same week, one woman poured out her costly oil, one friend sold Him out for thrity pieces of silver, and Jesus went to the cross for them both. That is the kind of love this episode is about.

This episode is about truth, love, the Church( with the big and little Cc) and what it costs to stay when leaving would just be easier.

Recorded during Holy Week, we are reminded of a woman who poured out her oil on Jesus while, in the very same week, Judas agreed to betray Him for silver-- and how Jesus went to the cross for both of them anyway.

In this conversation with Natalie Runion, founder of the Raised to Stay movement and author of four books including: Raised to Stay and I Don't Even Like Women, we talk about church hurt, healing, truth in love, humility, revival, and why the Church doesn't need more platforms- it needs more mothers, builders and people willing to pour out their lives in quiet obedience.

We also talk about why so many women are exhausted for competing for seats they were already given as daughters, and how revival will not built on competition, ego, or performance, but on humility, repentance, healing, and love.

This conversation is for the people who want to love the Church, even when she is messy. For the people who are tired but still faithful. For the people telling the truth in love. For the people who are staying when it would be easier to leave, or at least curious about it.

If this is you, come sit with us at the table. We're wildly hopeful.

Food is one of the most basic forms of sustenance we consume in our lives every day. It sustains us and nourishes our bodies in the way God designed us to live and thrive. We need it, yet for many women our relationship with what we eat becomes tangled in guilt, pressure and shame- so how do we begin healing our relationship with food through our faith?

In this episode of Wildly Hopeful, Brandy Dawson sits down with Christian registered dietitian and intuitive eating counselor Abbie Stasior to talk about healing our relationship with food through faith, compassion, and grace.

Together they explore how diet culture shows up, even in Christian spaces, why food can become a place of control, and what it looks like to move torward true "food freedom in Christ."

If food has ever felt complicated fo you, this conversation offers a gentle place to begin again.

*Note: This conversation includes discussion of food, body image, and eating habits. Please listen gently and take care of yourself if these topics feel tender.

How do you move forward when your dreams fall apart- do you still trust God? What do you do when you love Him deeply... but life doesn't unfold the way you planned (or how you prayed?

In this vulnerably honest conversation, Brandy sits down with Jennifer Lucy Tyler to talk about faith in seasons of disappointment, unaswered prayer, grief, and waiting.

If you have ever felt confused by God's timing, struggled with unmet expectations, or wondered where God is when your dreams fall apart- this episode is for you.

Jennifer shares her personal story of loss, and formation, and how Scripture became an anchor in the hardest times of her life.

If you are walking through delay or quietly just surviving, you belong here. You don't have to have perfect faith to experience God's nearness. You are deeply loved and have a seat at the table.
