Tell Us Your Story

Neil and Carleigh are back for season 2 of Tell Us Your Story!! They sit down and talk about the future of the podcast and share what the Lord has been teaching them in this season.

James Myers, also known as "Jim" only to Neil and Stuart. He is the husband to Michelle Myers, a Dad, a Pastor, and a very dear friend. You will hear his story of football turned cheerleader and how God used all of it to teach James to trust the process, allowing God to work all things for our good and His glory. We hope you are encouraged by our friend and we are so grateful to know both James and Michelle.

On today’s podcast is our friend, Michelle Myers. She is a wife, a Mom to three littles and is in full-time ministry. If you have ever looked in the mirror and not liked what you saw, listen to Michelle share her journey on becoming healthy not only physically but mentally and spiritually.

This week, Neil and Carleigh interviewed their friend Mallory Messer. Mallory was in Neil's student ministry and was also instrumental in Carleigh's story. Mallory is going to be a senior at Samford University in the fall. She also serves as president of her sorority! She shares all about God's faithfulness and trusting in God's timing.

This week, the other 1/2 of our podcast gets to tell us his story. Neil shares a little about his childhood, his journey to ministry and the importance of taking a risk and surrounding yourself with people that make you better.

On this weeks podcast, Neil and Carleigh share some of their favorite reads of all time (FROAT if you will) and their current reads during this quarantine season. These books have not only impacted them but also their story. Below are the list of books mentioned in this episode!Carleigh's Picks:Everybody Always by Bob GoffHiding in the Light by Rifiqa BaryRow for Freedom by Julia ImmonenLoving Your Husband Before You Even Have One by Love that Lasts by Jefferson and Alyssa BethkeSwipe Right by Levi LuskoThe Sacred Search by Gary ThomasRedeeming Love by Francine RiversNeil's Picks:Know What You're For by Jeff HendersonDangerous Prayers by Craig GroeschelHow to Lead When You're Not In Charge by Clay ScrogginsThe Dream Manager by Matthew KellyThe Comeback Effect by Jason Young & Jonathan MalmThe Strenuous Life by Ryan Swanson

This week, we have our friend Adam Hatton on the podcast. Adam is the Central Ministries Pastor at Biltmore Church and Neil and Adam served together in North Carolina. Adam and Neil became instant friends over their love of Sundrop and doing student ministry together. Adam was also extremely instrumental in shaping Carleigh spiritually throughout her early middle school years. We are beyond grateful for the impact Adam made in both of our lives and can’t wait for y’all to hear this episode!!

This week on the podcast, Neil and Carleigh sit down with their friend, Brian Word. Neil had previously served on staff with Brian and because of those few years that they served on staff together, Brian has become someone for Neil to look to in ministry as a confidant and advice. In Brian's story, he shares what ministry looks like as a college student and speaks straight from the heart about when your calling is not fun anymore.

In this episode, Neil and Carleigh sit down in their kitchen with their dear friend Katie and hear all about her story. Katie’s friendship has been one of the greatest gifts to both Neil and Carleigh (and the whole White family) since their move to Mobile in 2017. One thing you will learn about Katie is that she is such a servant not only to her church but especially to the people around her. She lives with an intentionality that is almost contagious. Today you will for sure take some nuggets of knowledge away!

This week we are wrapping up our friends, Jeremy and Mary Lauren Samplaski's story. In this episode they share a little bit more about their marriage and kids and at the very end, they each give a piece of advice they wish their college self knew. We hope you have enjoyed getting to know our dear friends as much as we have getting to talk with them (over Zoom of course #socialdistancing).

For the second week of the Quarantine Sessions we have some of our greatest friends, Jeremy and Mary Lauren Samplaski. They are some of the coolest and best people we know. We wanted to take time this week to introduce them to Podcast Nation. This episode will be split up into two episodes so stay tuned next week for that! We hope you enjoy this week's episode and as always hope that it points you to Jesus.

This week, Neil and Carleigh walk through how to navigate this new season of life. While this season can hold many uncertainties, they encourage us through personal stories and Bible stories that include isolation and solitude. They hope that after you listen to this you feel challenged and encouraged during these next few months.
