All of us have a tendency to fall into a pattern of living from a false sense of control. But when the unexpected circumstances of life hit, we are reminded very quickly of our dependency on the Lord. Today's storyteller, Mary Bradley Anderson, from our Mountain Brook, Alabama community, talks candidly about her journey of surrendering her plans to the Lord. This is a story about God‘s sovereignty, His all-sufficient grace and ever-present Spirit, and His omnipotent power as the Creator and Sustainer of life. Get ready to be inspired to live with your eyes focused on Jesus. ____________________________________________ VERSE OF THE WEEK: Psalm 139:5, 16 “You hem me in, behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me… All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.” CHALLENGE: “Anytime resentment creeps in, it's a reminder to turn to Jesus.” Where are you harboring resentment or jealousy?

"There is a cure for addiciton, and His name is Jesus."- Storyteller, Candace Jones According to the 2023 United States National Survey on Drug Use and Health over 48 million Americans battled a substance use disorder over the past year, making it abundantly clear- addiction does not discriminate. Today on the podcast, Candace Jones, who spoke at our Mountain Brook community's live gathering, shares her story of struggling with drugs and alcohol and how she quickly spiraled into the evil and dark world of selling drugs. Through her candidness, Candace clearly reminds us of the importance of having a relationship with Jesus, relying on Him rather than yourself, and the imperative role community plays when you are battling the lies of the enemy. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: -Addiciton can affect anyone-it does not care where you are from or what type of family you grew up in- and it can quickly take over your life. -God is seeking after a relationship with you, not religion and rules. - When God restores, He can do immeasurably more than you can ask or imagine.

He also discussed the Epstein Island scandal and how Jesus' example shows us that we should not expect Kings or Princes to save us.

Sin followed by subsequent shame and guilt can send us into some of the darkest places of loneliness, isolation, and weariness… places where the Lord never intended for us to be. After all, Jesus came to bring abundant life (John 10:10) and rest for our souls (Matthew 11:28-29). Dawson Cooper, who spoke at our live gathering in Mountain Brook, Alabama, beautifully reminds us of these truths as she recounts her journey of walking through an unplanned pregnancy and subsequent marriage to becoming a parent and letting go of childhood dreams. In her story, Dawson sweetly shares the gospel message of redemption, as she encourages us to look to Jesus alone to fulfill our needs and see the moments of life where His Holy Spirit has shown up - reminding us His fingerprints are all over our stories. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: - Admitting your weaknesses to others can be powerful in the hands of God. - God never intended for you to carry shame and guilt - He longs for you to bring those heavy burdens to Him. - Your past doesn't define you - you are righteous through the blood of Jesus Christ.

Welcome to the New Year! Our kickoff story is all about new beginnings—but it's not what you think. This truth-filled tale will inspire you to get your heart right for 2025. Jane Menendez, of our Mountain Brook community, openly shares about a seed of bitterness that settled in her heart long ago. The seed grew into a grudge, which Jane watered and nursed for more than 15 years. Jane bears it all, covering a lawsuit, financial insecurity, and eventually confessing the repetitive ways she entertained resentment in her heart. For decades, Jane tried hard to love, and she tried hard to forgive. Ultimately, only a right view of her own sin could bring about change. As you listen to how Jane learned to face the truth of herself, we think you'll do some necessary soul-searching, too. In this episode, you will learn: –The Lord will show you your sin, but He will also show you His love and faithfulness. –Repentance is uncomfortable but freeing. –If you're feeling stuck in your situation, you can candidly ask the Lord to help you forgive.

Tara Davis, of our Mountain Brook, Alabama community, experienced a childhood with some emotional and physical abandonment. As a result, learning independence and self-reliance came easily. But unlearning them? Not easy at all. In the midst of relationship hurts, financial rock-bottoms, and even the murder of her mother, Tara finally found that surrendering in suffering is the true way to peace. Listen and learn that freedom comes when you trust God with your deepest despair and live with dependence on Him. In this episode, you will learn: – When you have the right view of your circumstances, peace and hope are possible. – Self-reliant roads lead to dead ends. Full trust in God leads to freedom. – The Lord is near you, and He hears your prayers.

Each of us has those first person friendships from back in the day. Bucky McMillan is one of those guys for me. If you know one thing about him, it's his love for basketball. While most of my friends ventured into corporate America, Bucky pursued his passion as an AAU basketball coach, earning $1,500 a year. He knew his path and excelled. But learn how he made it work.In 2013, Bucky led Mountain Brook Schools to national prominence, transforming them into one of the best high school teams in the country. Mountain Brook wasn't known for athletic prowess until he worked his magic.Fast forward to 2020, Samford University recognized Bucky's talent, hiring him to coach their men's basketball program. From just 9 wins initially, he guided them to their first NCAA tournament in 25 years within four years, in 2024.Whether he coaches a Final 4 team or makes it to the NBA remains to be seen, but I am confident in his success.Recently, I caught up with Bucky and his staff over dinner, discussing college athletics, the transfer portal, NIL, his potential, and esteemed colleagues like Nate Oats and Bruce Pearl. He holds nothing back.As the dog days of summer roll in, it's a perfect time to reconnect with individuals who achieve remarkable feats. Don't miss out on hearing Bucky's story and insights - he's an hour well spent for any sports enthusiast.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
