One of the greatest privileges we have as spouses is coming before the Father and lifting up our marriage—leaning on Him for protection, provision, and strength. Today, special guests Brad and Heidi Mitchell join Dr. Kim to talk about how foundational prayer is for intimacy and the overall climate of your marriage. Many couples struggle to develop this rhythm—not because they don't want to, but because they simply don't know where to start. Be encouraged today as Brad and Heidi share from their newest book, Build Your Marriage With Prayer, and talk about how guided prayers, daily readings, and reflection questions can help couples grow a consistent and meaningful prayer life together.   Episode Highlights: Husbands don't have to know it all to lead- they can be simply willing to initiate. Wives can come alongside and encourage their husbands to step into the role God created them for.  Don't weaponize prayer against your spouse. Quotes from this Episode: Kim Kimberling Quotes: "The first time Nancy and I really started praying for something together and saw God show up, it was like, 'This is awesome.'" "Prayer bonds us together in a way nothing else really can." "Most guys feel inadequate spiritually, but prayer was never about performing." "You don't have to know more than your spouse to lead spiritually—you just have to initiate." "When couples begin praying together, they stop fighting against each other and start fighting for each other." "Inviting God into conflict changes conflict from something destructive into something that can grow your marriage." "The more we pray, the more prayer becomes part of the fabric of who we are." "God wants to be involved in the middle of our everyday lives—not just the big emergencies." "When you pray over your spouse, it creates empathy, connection, and unity." "Prayer gives God a chance to show up in your marriage over and over again." Brad Mitchell Quotes: "A lot of men don't pray with their wives because they're afraid of looking inadequate." "Men don't need to be spiritual experts—they just need to become spiritual initiators." "The things you most want to lean away from are often the very places God wants you to lean in." "When you pray about the issue instead of against each other, nobody wins or loses—God wins." "The enemy whispers, 'You're not good at this,' because he knows how powerful prayer is in marriage." "Every wife would love for her husband to stop and pray over her before the day begins." "Surrendering your schedule to God changes interruptions from frustrations into opportunities." "Prayer protects your marriage because it keeps both of you surrendered to God instead of fighting each other." Heidi Mitchell Quotes: "Make prayer a positive experience for your spouse, not a performance." "There's really no wrong way to come before God together." "Encouragement from a wife can completely change a husband's confidence in leading spiritually." "If prayer becomes weaponized, couples will stop wanting to pray together." "Not every thought deserves a place to stay in your mind." "Ask yourself: Does this thought line up with who God says my spouse is?" "Praying together helped us move from surface-level faith into authentic dependence on God." "When my husband prays for me, I feel protected, cared for, and truly seen." "The spiritual connection we share through prayer has become one of the greatest strengths in our marriage." Time to Talk About it: What would it look like for us to make prayer feel more natural and encouraging in our relationship instead of pressured or performative? Is there an area of our marriage right now where we've been "fighting each other" instead of "fighting for each other," and how could prayer help shift that?

What if the most loving thing isn't the comment everyone else is leaving? Before you hit "proud of you," "you look beautiful," or "live your truth," ask yourself: are you encouraging someone toward life, or cheering them further into the very thing that's destroying them—and what does God think about it?#ChristianTikTok#ChristianReels#JesusChrist#BibleTruth#BiblicalTruth#ChristianPodcast#FaithOverFeelings#KingdomMindset#FollowJesus#DiscipleOfChrist#LoveAndTruth#SpeakTheTruth#TruthInLove#RealLove#BiblicalLove#ChristianLiving#ChristianEncouragement#FearGod#RepentAndBelieve#Watchman#CultureAndChrist#CounterCulture#ChristianPerspective#WorldVsWord#ModernChristianity#HardTruth#DeepFaith#ThinkAboutIt#TruthMatters#WakeUpChurch#LikingTheirPostsWontSaveThem#YoureNotHelpingThem#LoveDoesntCheerForSelfDestruction#IdentityInChrist#CreatedByGod#SpiritualDiscernment#ChristianContent#BibleTeaching

Before ascending into heaven, Jesus gave His followers a clear mission: “You will be My witnesses… to the ends of the earth” — a calling they boldly began to live out on the day of Pentecost and that we are called to continue today.But witnessing isn't one-size-fits-all.In this series, we'll explore the lives of different evangelists and missionaries throughout history and discover that while the methods may vary, the mission remains the same: to help disconnected people become connected to Christ.

John 4:19–24If you attended church for 50 years, you would spend thousands of hours gathered with God's people in worship. Worship is not only a central part of the Christian life—it is the very purpose for which we were created. In this sermon from John 4:19–24, Jesus answers two foundational questions about worship: Where should we worship? and How should we worship? As Jesus speaks with the Samaritan woman at the well, he reveals that true worship is no longer tied to a sacred place but is centered on a Savior. Through his life, death, and resurrection, Christ becomes the true temple, gathering worshipers from every nation who worship the Father in spirit and in truth.OutlineWhere Should We Worship? (John 4:19–22)Mt. Gerizim or Jerusalem?Salvation is from the Jews.Christ, the true Temple.How Should We Worship? (John 4:23–24)Worship in TruthWorship in SpiritTrue worship: fire and wood together.Warning, Encouragement, and ChallengeA warning about false worship.An encouragement that the Father is seeking worshipers.A challenge to join God's mission of gathering worshipers.Questions for ReflectionWhy was the debate between Mt. Gerizim and Jerusalem so important to the Samaritan woman?What does Jesus mean when he says that "salvation is from the Jews"?How does Jesus fulfill and replace the Old Testament temple?What does it mean to worship God "in truth"?What does it mean to worship God "in spirit"?Which danger are you more prone to: truth without spirit or spirit without truth?How can you better prepare your heart for worship each Lord's Day?In what ways can your family life and private devotional life become more centered on worship?How does evangelism relate to God's purpose of gathering worshipers for himself?What is one practical way you can prioritize worship this week?Key Verse"God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."— John 4:24 (ESV)

In this episode, I sat down with Camille Joy, founder of the Moments of Joy Podcast and author of Moments of Joy: 90 Days of Encouragement, published by Penguin Random House. Camille is a trafficking survivor who escaped an abusive situation at 21, became a high school dropout turned executive chef, and fought her way into a six-figure salary by going directly to the CEO. When her youngest son Mason was diagnosed with autism, everything shifted again, and a raw, tear-filled video she recorded in her car after a difficult doctor visit went viral with over six million views in 2022.Today Camille runs two businesses: Moments of Joy, her for-profit media brand built on brand deals, speaking, and her book, and Awesomely Different, her nonprofit that provides swimming lesson grants for children with autism. She also shares how she and her filmmaker husband manage it all without a village, and what it really took to land Holly Robinson Peete as a podcast guest after five attempts over several years.Main TakeawaysYour test is your testimony: Camille's openness about trafficking, autism, and grief is what built her audience and her business.Tackle the shame first: Before you can turn your story into impact, you have to get comfortable sharing what you have been through.Serve before you ask: Camille landed Holly Robinson Peete as a guest by consistently showing up in her community, buying her book, attending her events, and reaching out five times before getting a yes.Caregiving and entrepreneurship can coexist: Camille and her husband run two businesses while raising Mason by communicating constantly, sharing schedules, and giving each other permission to pursue their goals.Highlights Include00:46 - Camille shares what life looked like before the Moments of Joy Podcast existed01:45 - Mason's birth story and three heart surgeries in 18 months02:42 - Receiving Mason's autism diagnosis and how it changed everything04:40 - Camille reveals she is a trafficking survivor and how she escaped at 2106:06 - How a stranger saying her name out loud was the sign she needed to go to culinary school09:14 - Fighting for the executive chef title at ConAir Corporation by CC'ing the CEO11:13 - Going to the CEO directly to demand her six-figure salary and getting it on the spot23:22 - The viral reel that changed everything: 6 to 7 million views after a tearful moment in the car27:06 - Launching Awesomely Different, her nonprofit that teaches children with autism to swim31:52 - Signing with Penguin Random House and the reality of first-round edits38:45 - How Camille and her husband manage two businesses and Mason's care without a traditional village46:01 - Why tackling shame is the first step to turning your test into a testimony52:03 - The strategy behind landing Holly Robinson Peete and why she reached out five times56:17 - Lightning round: resources, role models, daily non-negotiables, and parting adviceLinks Mentioned in This EpisodePodcorn (early podcast sponsorship platform): https://podcorn.comMoments of Joy Podcast: https://www.mojpodcast.com/ Watch & ListenSide Hustle Pro Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/13qDj08lBR4ymzGhXIKy8tSide Hustle Pro Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/side-hustle-pro/id1126021323Social MediaInstagram: @momentsofjoypodcastTikTok: @momentsofjoypodcast Hosted on Acast.

TODAY'S TREASUREWe put no stumbling block in anyone's path, so that our ministry will not be discredited. Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships, and distresses.2 Corinthians 6:3-4Send us a comment!Support the show

Amazing Grace: The Blind Man Who Finally Saw – John 9 In Episode 138 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane dive into John 9, the powerful story of a man born blind who encounters Jesus and receives his sight. But this miracle is about more than physical healing—it's about spiritual awakening, identity, and what it truly means to see. As the healed man grows in boldness and the religious leaders grow in resistance, this chapter reveals the difference between outward religion and genuine transformation. Together, Jamie and Jane unpack how Jesus meets us in brokenness, how suffering is not wasted, and why sometimes the people who think they see clearly can still miss the heart of God. This conversation is an invitation to let Jesus open your eyes—not just to healing, but to who He truly is. Where might Jesus be inviting me to see differently—about Him, myself, or others? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

TODAY'S TREASUREThe righteous flourish like the palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon. They are planted in the house of the Lord; they flourish in the courts of our God. They still bear fruit in old age; they are ever full of sap and green, to declare that the Lord is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him. Psalm 92:12-15 ESVSend us a comment!Support the show

Patrick begins with mariachi banter and Taco Tuesday antics, blending playful music with humorous listener feedback, before shifting into heartfelt stories of catchphrases and daily faith. He reads messages about noisy Mass-goers, extraordinary parish fees, oddball breakaway churches, and field calls where listeners recount walking out of services or grappling with moral confusion in their congregations. Encouragement and wit spill out as Patrick fields everything from parenting to parish politics, always keeping laughter and a sense of holy purpose at the center. Patrick shares some of the MANY emails coming in from folks who love the Nasty Gram songs Mark (email) - I had an upsetting experience at mass today and I was hoping for your perspective (06:32) Ed - I went to a mass where they said John Paul II was the antichrist and I walked out too. Is it okay to talk politics and faith? (16:04) Nathan – Is the Palmarian Catholic Church in Spain a valid church? (19:25) Jesus – Do you have any tips on how to stay focused with distractions during mass? (25:04) Phyllis - Priest at mass said he hoped that cops will stop killing black people. Many people left after that. (30:59) Tom - I'm not Catholic and I’m disturbed by the sexualization of children. What can we do when it seems like clergy are on board with this in certain Christian sects? (39:27) Gabriela – Do you have advice for keeping my kids catholic when they grow up. Where do I start? (48:28) (Originally Aired on 04-28-2026)
