Can you imagine being 20 years old and already having been burned in a fire, as well as having a rare neurological issue? That is what happened to our friend, Addison Hudler. She has overcome so many difficult situations, and is still standing strong in her faith. Addison is currently a junior at Ouachita Baptist University. You may remember her mother, Amber Hudler, was on our first episode, and also our guest for Episode #126. In that first episode, Amber also discussed some of the topics we talk about with Addison, but now you will hear from the daughter's perspective. These episodes go well together. Addison was only 7 years old when there was an accident during a bonfire that caused 2nd degree burns on her face and hand. She was 12 when she started to develop strange symptoms that sent her to many doctors and hospitals, with no answers for a long while. They did finally get answers and treatment, but not without continued work. There is a quote from Jeremy Freeman which Addison likes to quote. It is this: "Sometimes God gets the most glory when someone is healed on earth. Sometimes God gets the most glory when someone is healed in heaven, and sometimes God gets the most glory when someone spends a lifetime enduring."

In today's episode, we're joined by Stephanie, the Executive Broker of Epic Real Estate in Little Rock, Arkansas. Stephanie shares her unique journey into real estate, which began with a personal challenge from her husband to sell their own home. Stephanie emphasizes the importance of building relationships with clients, focusing on the people behind the homes, and maintaining work-life balance. She shares how she integrates personal connections into her business by getting to know her clients' needs and preferences and even inviting out-of-town clients to her home for dinner. Stephanie also discusses the importance of aligning her schedule with her priorities, ensuring that her heart is at rest while balancing her professional responsibilities and family life.   Tune in to learn how Stephanie combines her passion for real estate with her dedication to her family and community, and discover how you can reach out to her for referrals or to connect with an agent who truly prioritizes people.   “I love real estate. I love the people I work with. I love the transactions. I love the ebb and flow of the business. You know, some people, I don't panic as much if there's, like, a little lull in sales, because I know that more is coming. And I just enjoy the lull and think this is extra time. I get time with my family, and then it gets real crazy again, and it's crazy.”- Stephanie   Key takeaways to delve into:   Career Transition and Philosophy: Stephanie transitioned from a career in elementary education to real estate after successfully selling her own home. She views real estate as more than just buying and selling houses, emphasizing the emotional value of homes and the importance of understanding clients' needs and desires. Balancing Family and Career: Stephanie values the flexibility of the real estate profession, allowing her to balance work and family life effectively. She uses time-blocking techniques and efficient scheduling to ensure she spends quality time with her husband and four children while also engaging with her community. Community Engagement and Client Relationships: Building strong relationships with clients and community engagement is central to Stephanie's approach. She focuses on getting to know clients personally, hosting them for dinners, and maintaining connections even after transactions. Her community involvement allows her to find opportunities for her clients beyond the traditional market. Adaptability and Professional Growth:Stephanie acknowledges the seasonal nature of the real estate business and adapts her schedule accordingly, using slower periods for personal and family time. She is open to future opportunities for professional growth, such as becoming a principal broker, as her priorities evolve over time.   About Stephanie Caldwell:   Stephanie is a Texas girl that found herself in Little Rock, Arkansas with her husband, Tim, and their 3 kids under the age of 6 back in 2008. Since then she and her husband have added a son to their family and found that they love the people and city of Little Rock. Arkansas wasn't new to Stephanie, as she received her Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Ouachita Baptist University located about an hour south of Little Rock. Subsequently she returned to Central Arkansas and joined the Real Estate profession as her children approached their middle school and high school years. Stephanie is well connected and actively involved in the community, foremost through the local and global ministries of Fellowship Bible Church where her husband is a pastor. These connections leverage her enthusiasm and expertise, enhancing her client dedication.​   Stephanie showcases her clients' homes with a personal, professional video as a promotional tool that has been very successful in reaching the targeted audience for each sale. It is her desire to be her clients' “Forever Realtor”, trusting her to be the best in selling their home and their guide when it comes to finding the next perfect home until they are in their “Forever Home.”​ Stephanie is the Executive Broker at Epic Real Estate. She is communicative and thorough. Her insight, honesty, knowledge of the market and genuine care for all people are strengths that her clients value the most. She thoroughly enjoys serving her clients through the big life changes that moving often represents.​   Connect with Stephanie:   Website: www.epicrealestateco.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/steph__caldwell/   Connect with Jennifer Staats:   Website: staatssolutions.com Staats Solution Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/staatssolutions/ Jennifer Staats Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jennifertherealtor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/staatssolutions/

In the fall of 2008, Hannah was ready to get the new school year underway.  She would be a junior this year, and was anxious to get it behind her so she could start her senior year, graduate (as valedictorian, of course!) and go on to Ouachita Baptist University the next fall.  Brain cancer was just a blip on the screen of her life at this point. She had so much to look forward to!  As we are in the middle of back-to-school time in Arkansas and around the country, I want to share a word of encouragement to those parents whose children are marking milestones ... starting kindergarten, beginning junior high, entering their senior year of high school, or maybe going off to college for the first time.  Let me encourage you to rejoice and celebrate each of these milestones with your children.  Please don't waste precious time being sad that your children are growing up ... That is what children are supposed to do!  Those are things to celebrate, not to mourn.  Allow me to gently and lovingly encourage you to be thankful that your children are healthy with bright futures ahead of them. Take time to savor every moment and celebrate every milestone!Thank you for joining me for another bonus episode of the While We're Waiting podcast in this year-long series in which I share our family's experiences as our teenage daughter Hannah battled glioblastoma brain cancer from February 2008 through February 2009.  My desire is to process through the events of those twelve months with the perspective that 16 years has brought … and point listeners to hope in Jesus along the way.I would love to hear your thoughts on the show.

Episode 182 Conquerors Not Captives with Joey Dodson Dr. Joey Dodson is a good friend and a former student of mine. He was traveling through Houston and I grabbed him, forced him to each lunch, and asked him to be a part of this podcast. Who Is Joey Dodson? Joey Dodson is the Craig L. Blomberg Chair of New Testament at Denver Seminary.  He married his first-grade sweetheart . . . seriously.  They have five children, two grandchildren and one grandchild on the way. Dodson attended Ouachita Baptist University, and then came to Houston where he studied under David Capes at Houston Baptist University. He then moved overseas to do his PhD at the University of Aberdeen with Simon Gathercole and Francis Watson.  From there he studied at the University of Tubingen. After his PhD Dodson taught for a time at Houston Baptist University.  Later at Ouachita Baptist University.  For the last five years he and his family have made their home in Denver where Joey learned the secret to contentment: move to Colorado.  He loves hiking and the outdoors. Conquerors Not Captives Conquerors Not Captives: Reframing Romans 7 for the Christian Life (Lexham, 2024) is Joey Dodson's latest book. He co-wrote it with his daughter, Mattie Mae Motl.  It's part of a series by Lexham Press whose goal is to take what is standard in the academy to the church. His basic argument is that we must read Romans 7 in context, thus as part of Romans 6-8.  It must not be read in isolation. Nor should it be read over against our experience.  It's Exegesis not Narci-gesis.  Accordingly, the “I” of Romans 7 is not the normative Christian Life.

Guys are fascinated with growth. Starting as youngsters, we dream about growing up. When we get to our teenage years, we want to grow strong. As we move into our adult years, we want to grow wise. The process of growing up, growing strong, and growing wise all seem pretty straight-forward. What if a man wants to grow spiritually? How does that work? Well, today's guest will help us answer that question. Today, Dr. Nathan Wagnon joins Adam in the studio to talk about how men grow spiritually. Nathan is on staff at Watermark Community Church, where he serves as the director of Equipping and Apologetics. He's also the host of Watermark's Equipping Podcast. He's a graduate of Ouachita Baptist University and Dallas Seminary. He's also served in the Army and did two deployments in Afghanistan. You can connect with Nathan here. NOTE: During the intro to this episode, we mistakenly said that Nathan has a PhD from Biola University. That was incorrect. Nathan has a DMin, not a PhD. We apologize for the confusion!

Season 1, Episode 5: In Review - Ram by Paul McCartney   (Originally released on May 18, 2023 - This episode was shelved for audio quality reasons between June 2023 and January 2024.
