Hello and welcome back! Join us for our final extra long installment of Summer Shorts in which Hailey reminisces, Kevin writes that down, and chaos ensues as a pair of gurks joins the fold to weigh in on a very quirky story. In early 1960's Detroit, a young family moved into an unassuming rental home only to discover an unwelcome tenant: a horrible, hissing hag that terrorized them in their sleeping and waking hours. A presence verified by the family and multiple visitors to the home, the hag seemed to have a special fixation on the back room of the home, haunting and hissing in the night much to the horror of anyone who slept there. Buckle up, y'all. This one's a doozy! Thanks so much to Crysta and Shelby for joining us for today's episode!

Have you ever wondered how to infuse your work with your faith, especially in environments where talking about Jesus isn't always welcomed or “appropriate?” This is one of the most common questions Christian women in business and leadership ask — and this Summer Shorts episode answers it in a way that might surprise you. Because the truth is, you may already be doing it without even realizing it. In this episode, you'll explore: Why you don't have to say a word to infuse your work with your faith What it means to be indwelled by the Holy Spirit — and why every room you enter becomes a place of worship the moment you walk in Why being the calm in someone's chaos and the value in someone's valley is faith in action How your humility, solutions-focused, and servant-hearted leadership is one of the most powerful expressions of faith in the workplace Scriptures referenced: Matthew 10:19 Luke 12:12 This episode is part of the Summer Shorts series. Catch Episodes 358-360 for more bite-sized, practical conversations on faith and work. Key Takeaway Infusing your work with faith isn't about quoting scripture. By walking into the room, you have already infused it! The Holy Spirit goes with you everywhere — into every meeting, every difficult conversation, every valley a client is walking through. Your job is simply to stay surrendered, stay present, and trust him to direct you. Reflection Question In what specific area of your work has the Lord said, “Infuse this with your love of Jesus.”?

Send us Fan MailScarcity is loud. It tells us there's not enough money, not enough compassion, not enough hope, and not enough time to help. In our final Summer Shorts episode, The Rev. Kenya Thompson, Vicar of Church of the Common Ground, offers a different narrative rooted in the miracle of Matthew 14:13–21, where Jesus feeds the 5,000. Miracles, she reminds us, are signs of God's presence breaking into ordinary life, revealing abundance where we assume there's only emptiness.In this episode, Melissa has a conversation with Kenya about everyday miracles, Jesus' creativity, and what "enough" really looks like. Together, they explore practical ways to show up for our neighbors—especially the most vulnerable—even when we feel our own resources are limited. Listen in for the full conversation. Born in Washington, D.C., and raised in Indianapolis, Kenya attended Howard University, graduating in 1992. She later earned a master's in education from American University in 1996. For over 20 years, she worked in education, including as a high school guidance and college counselor for 15 years. Kenya joined St. George's Episcopal Church in 1995 and was confirmed that year. After discerning a call to ministry, she earned her M.Div. from Candler School of Theology – Emory University and was ordained in 2018. Her time working in China deeply impacted her spiritually, as she witnessed God's love through the kindness of strangers, even those not Christian. Since ordination, Kenya has served in various roles, including Vicar at Church of the Common Ground, Associate Rector at Holy Innocents' Episcopal Church, and Director of Leadership Development at Emmaus House. She is passionate about caring for the forgotten and the unwelcome. She considers being a priest an honor and a blessing and looks forward to future opportunities to love and serve God.Support the showFollow us on IG and FB at Bishop Rob Wright.
What does it mean when your body keeps saying no? In this Summer Shorts episode, Mechelle sits with four questions she wishes she could ask Dr. Gabor Maté — one of the most important voices in trauma and mind-body medicine alive today. From the trauma that lives in people who "don't feel anything," to the childhood wound of choosing attachment over authenticity, to what it takes to look at yourself honestly — this episode draws on Maté's landmark work in When the Body Says No and The Myth of Normal to offer some of the most important concepts in healing. Thoughtful, personal, and genuinely life-changing. Books to Reference / Link in Show Notes: When the Body Says No — Gabor Maté The Myth of Normal — Gabor Maté In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts — Gabor Maté Scattered Minds — Gabor Maté Content Note: This episode touches on childhood trauma, emotional suppression, and chronic illness.

What if the business you built for freedom is the very thing consuming all of your time, energy, and space? In this final episode of the Summer Shorts Series, I'm talking about one of the most important realizations I've had after more than 250 episodes, hundreds of client conversations, and years of working with successful business owners: Success is not the same as freedom. So many entrepreneurs start their businesses because they want more freedom. Freedom of time. Freedom of choice. Freedom of income. Freedom to build a life on their own terms. But somewhere along the way, many business owners create a business that looks successful on paper - the revenue is growing, the team is expanding, the offers are selling - but the life they thought they were building feels farther away than ever. They have more success, but less space. More revenue, but less peace. More opportunity, but less freedom. In this episode, I'm unpacking why growth itself is not the ultimate goal, why success on paper can hide exhaustion and over-dependence, and why the real measure of a thriving business is whether it supports the life you actually want. Because the best businesses are not just profitable. They are built for the person who owns them.

Hello and welcome back! On the first installment of Summer Shorts for the year, we're bringing you the infamous story of the Pascagoula Abduction. On an unassuming October night in 1973, two men, Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker Jr were fishing on a quiet pier on the Pascagoula River when their lives were changed forever. The pair claimed to have been abducted by aliens and brought aboard their ship where they underwent unknown testing before being dropped back off at the banks of the river. What ensued in the following days was a media onslaught of epic proportions and the two become globally recognized names in the world of UFOs. But did it really happen? Could this story possibly be true? Let's talk about it. Buckle up, friends. This one's a doozy!SOURCES:https://pastebin.com/5jZizdSbAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We close out our Summer Shorts series with two of the Bible's shortest books, Second John and Third John, and they share one surprising theme: hospitality. John writes to a church navigating a world full of false teachers, people who denied that Jesus came in the flesh, and his message is both urgent and practical. Christians are called to be unreasonably inhospitable to lies and unreasonably hospitable to the truth. We dig into what that looks like today, when the front door knocking at our hearts is less often a traveling preacher and more often a screen, a feed, or a worldview quietly asking to move in. The call is not to fear or to build a Christian bubble, but to stand guard, pay attention, and be intentional about what we welcome into our homes and hearts. And at the center of it all is the greatest irony: Jesus himself endured the ultimate inhospitality from the world so that we could be fully and completely welcomed into his home.
Send us Fan MailPain has a way of making everything feel personal, like the universe is singling you out. Holle Tubbs, diocesan youth missioner for the Diocese of Atlanta, joins us for our Summer Shorts series to talk about a different path: reaching for God without turning faith into a bargain for control.In this episode, Melissa and Holle explore the relationship between faith, humility, and a kind of grit that isn't defined by winning, but by refusing to give up. They also discuss vulnerability as intimacy, the hard work of depersonalizing pain, and the relief that comes when we can finally say, “This hurts,” without assuming it is punishment. Listen in for the full conversation.Holle Tubbs has served in formation ministry leadership since 2003, working in both nondenominational and Episcopal contexts. After spending several years in ministry in the Pacific Northwest, she returned to the South and began serving her hometown parish (St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Columbus, GA) as the Director of Youth Ministry & Media. She joined the Bishop's Staff of the Diocese of Atlanta in 2021.In her diocesan role, Holle develops EYCDIOATL programs, supports and mobilizes youth ministers and young people, and partners with the Mikell Board of Governors to oversee the ministry of Mikell Camp & Conference Center in Toccoa, GA. She also leads The Keep/Watch Project, an Atlanta-based suicide prevention ministry offering curriculum and training for individuals, congregations, and faith-based organizations.Beyond the Diocese, Holle collaborates with ministry leaders across the Church to equip students, strengthen intergenerational ministry, and explore fresh ways to engage Gen Z/Gen Alpha. She is a partner with the Forma Network and serves on the Youth Ministry Council of Advice for The Episcopal Church. A passionate advocate for mental health and leadership development, Holle is committed to helping young people and their leaders thrive. Support the showFollow us on IG and FB at Bishop Rob Wright.

What if the thing that makes your business grow faster isn't urgency, pressure, or pushing harder - but your calm energy? In this episode of It's Your Offer, I'm continuing the Summer Shorts Series with a conversation about one of the most powerful, and often overlooked, business growth tools: your emotional state as the founder. We live in a culture that rewards urgency. Move faster. Do more. Respond immediately. Stay ahead. Don't fall behind. Adopt the next thing. Chase the shiny object. Keep pushing. And somewhere along the way, many business owners started to believe that stress is a sign of commitment and overwhelm is simply the price of success. But what if that is not true? What if calm is not the opposite of ambition? What if calm is actually what allows you to lead more powerfully, make better decisions, create more spaciousness, and grow your business with more ease? In this episode, I'm sharing why calm has become one of my most powerful tools as a business owner, how your energy as the founder shapes the entire business, and why the strongest businesses are not led by frantic founders - they are led by intentional ones. Because your business absorbs your energy. Your team feels it. Your clients feel it. Your prospects feel it. Your content even carries it. And when you learn how to lead from a more grounded place, everything gets clearer. Your decisions improve. Your priorities sharpen. Your team settles. Your clients feel more deeply supported. And your business starts to feel like something you are intentionally leading instead of constantly reacting to.

Welcome to Summer Shorts, a special summer series featuring bite-sized encouragement from the Equip Collection at AriseSingleMoms.com. As single moms, we often carry so much and try to love everyone well. But without healthy boundaries, we end up drained, hurt, or overwhelmed. In this encouraging reflection, Lanita Colbert reminds us that walking in both grace and truth, like Jesus did, means loving others without losing yourself. Grace invites compassion, but truth protects your peace. Boundaries aren't selfish - they're sacred. They help you steward your time, heart, and energy while letting others grow too. Saying no doesn't make you unkind; it makes you wise. You are worthy of love, rest, and emotional safety. Protect what God has given you. You've got this!

What books does a Christian business coach actually keep on her shelf — and why? That's the question I'm often asked by listeners, clients, and in networking groups, and this Summer Shorts episode answers it with five go-to books that have shaped how faith, leadership, and money intersect in business for me.

This week in Summer Shorts, we dig into the book of Jude, one of the Bible's shortest letters and one of its most urgent. Jude had planned to write about salvation, but something came up: false teachers had quietly slipped into the church, twisting God's grace into permission to live however they wanted. His message to the church then is just as relevant now. Contend for the faith, hold fast to the truth, and don't let anyone reshape the word of God to fit a worldly mold. We also explore a fascinating question: was Jude actually the half-brother of Jesus? And if so, what does it mean that he introduces himself not as Jesus's brother, but as his servant? That single choice might be one of the strongest arguments we have for who Jesus really is. The same God who freed his people from slavery in Egypt came to free us from slavery to sin, and that truth, Jude says, is worth fighting for.

Send us Fan MailYou can ruin a garden by being too confident, and you can damage a church the same way. The Rev. Michael White joins us for our Summer Shorts series with a story that starts small, weeding a tidy plot, and lands right in the middle of Matthew 13: sometimes what we label a weed is actually the vine that is meant to grow. That simple mistake opens a bigger conversation about Christian community, belonging, and the temptation to do God's sorting for God.In this episode, Melissa has a conversation with Michael about why churches struggle with inclusion even when the sign says “all are welcome.” Michael names an uncomfortable truth: a lot of us don't like feeling awkward, so we drift toward people who look familiar, think like us, and fit our preferred style. But The Episcopal Church at its best is a community where whoever shows up gets to be part of the pilgrimage, and that wide embrace can shape us into richer, more grounded people with a deeper “tapestry” of relationships. Listen in for the full conversation. The Rev. Michael White currently serves as interim rector of St. Luke's Atlanta. Prior to serving at St. Luke's, Michael served as the 41st rector of Christ Church, Savannah. Founded in 1733, Christ Church is the oldest house of worship in the state of Georgia. Michael graduated from Virginia Theological Seminary in May of 1995 and was ordained that same month. He has a certificate in Non-profit Management from Duke University. He completed the two-year Clergy Leadership Project sponsored by Trinity Wall Street and spent one year as a religious outreach advisor in the U.S. Senate. Michael has also completed a multi-year training offered by the Interim Ministry Network. Michael is married to The Rev. Helen Slingluff White. They have two sons, Ethan and Jay. Ethan is beginning his third year of study at Virginia Theological Seminary after serving as a youth minister at St. Stephen's, Richmond and graduating from The University of the South: Sewanee. Jay is a recent graduate of Princeton University and now lives in Chicago pursuing an acting career.Support the showFollow us on IG and FB at Bishop Rob Wright.
Content Note:Ted's story involves a family member's suicide. We mention it gently and briefly in the setup. Spoiler Alert: story lines are discussed so if you haven't seen it, watch first. He's relentlessly optimistic, brings biscuits to his boss every morning, and somehow makes everyone around him better — but underneath all that warmth, Ted Lasso is a man still carrying a wound from his childhood.

What if the fastest way to grow your business this summer isn't doing more - but focusing on less? In this episode of It's Your Offer, I'm continuing the Summer Shorts Series with episode three: a short, punchy, straight-to-the-point conversation about one of the most overlooked profit levers in your business - focus. As entrepreneurs, we are often conditioned to believe that more creates more. More offers. More strategies. More platforms. More marketing channels. More ideas. More opportunities. More ways to grow. But the truth is, every time you split your attention, you dilute your power. And while distraction can feel productive, it is often one of the most expensive things happening inside your business. In this episode, I'm talking about why most business owners are not actually lacking opportunities - they are drowning in them. And why the next level of growth often comes from identifying the one growth lever that matters most, committing to it, and giving it your focused attention long enough for it to create real momentum. Because focus does not limit your growth. Focus accelerates it.

Speaking of Higher Ed: Conversations on Teaching and Learning
Good teaching is not just about content. It is about connection, purpose, and making sure students can actually access the learning. For this July Summer Short, we revisit three conversations about designing learning experiences students can connect with. Dr. Bonni Stachowiak discusses the role of presence and relationships in effective teaching. Monica Cornetti explains why meaningful gamification is not just about points, badges, or leaderboards, but about helping students see how learning connects to real life. Peter Berryman offers practical advice for making course materials more accessible, beginning with small steps faculty can take in familiar tools like Microsoft Word and the course syllabus.

What are the greatest feuds of all time? From the Hatfields and McCoys to Hamilton and Burr, history is full of rivalries, but none with longer-lasting consequences than the feud between two brothers: Jacob and Esau. This week in Summer Shorts, we dig into the book of Obadiah, the shortest book in the Old Testament, written at the moment when Edom stood back and watched, even celebrated, as their brother Israel was ransacked by Babylon. At the heart of their betrayal, God names one thing: pride. And through Obadiah, God makes clear that the same pride fueling that ancient feud is alive in all of us, in every relationship where hurt has curdled into superiority, and where someone else's suffering quietly satisfies us. But Obadiah doesn't end in judgment. He ends with a promise: a day is coming when all feuds cease, and a kingdom bound together by mercy reigns over the whole earth. We believe that day arrived in Jesus Christ, and the church is where that kingdom is already taking shape.
Most business owners say they want more revenue. And on the surface, that makes sense. More revenue feels like growth. It feels like success. It feels like freedom. But here's the truth: revenue and wealth are not the same thing. In this episode of It's Your Offer, I'm continuing the Summer Shorts Series — a collection of shorter, straight-to-the-point episodes designed to give you a quick shot of clarity, perspective, and momentum as you move through the summer season. And today, we're talking about one of the biggest misconceptions in business growth: the belief that more revenue automatically makes you wealthier. I have worked with hundreds of business owners making hundreds of thousands — even millions — of dollars who are stressed, overworked, underpaid, and completely chained to the business they built. They are generating revenue, but they are not creating wealth. They are making more money, but they are not necessarily keeping more money. And that distinction matters. In this episode, I'm breaking down why revenue alone can be misleading, where profit is often hiding inside your business, and why the fastest path to more wealth may not be adding something new — but uncovering the money already sitting inside what you've built. Because true wealth is not measured by how much money flows through your business. It is measured by what your business allows you to keep: your profit, your time, your energy, and ultimately, your life.

This week in our Summer Shorts series, we dig into the entire book of Philemon, one of the shortest letters in the New Testament and one of the most personal. Paul writes from prison to his friend Philemon on behalf of Onesimus, a runaway slave, asking Philemon to receive him back not as property but as a beloved brother in Christ. Along the way, Paul models something remarkable: rather than pulling rank, he appeals to relationship, to love, and to the kind of generosity that flows naturally from genuine faith. The story of Onesimus, slave turned free, debt paid by another, is a picture of the gospel itself, mirroring exactly what Jesus did for every one of us. And the story of Paul, once a persecutor of Christians and now their greatest champion, reminds us that no one is beyond the reach of God's transforming grace. Whatever you feel enslaved to today, the debt has already been paid.
What if the thing slowing down your business growth isn't what's missing — but everything you've already added? In this episode of It's Your Offer, I'm kicking off the first installment of my new Summer Shorts Series — a collection of shorter, straight-to-the-point episodes designed to give you a quick shot of clarity, perspective, and momentum as you move through the summer season. And we're starting with one of the biggest hidden growth killers inside established businesses: complexity. So many business owners assume that if they want more growth, more revenue, or more ease, they need to add something new — another offer, another marketing channel, another system, another hire, another strategy. But very often, the real issue isn't that something is missing. It's that the business has become too complicated to clearly see what's working, where money is leaking, where customers are getting lost, and what actually deserves your focus. In this episode, I'm talking about why successful businesses often start to feel hard, how complexity quietly steals time, energy, profit, and momentum, and why simplicity may be the growth strategy you've been overlooking. Because the businesses that grow with the most ease are rarely the busiest. They're the clearest.

This week in our Summer Shorts series, we're answering a listener question that took us back to one of the hardest seasons of our lives: What were some of the small things people did that made the biggest difference while we were walking through our marriage crisis? When everything around us felt cold and uncertain, God placed "redbirds" in our path—people who simply showed up. They didn't always have the perfect words. They didn't try to fix us. They listened, encouraged us, invited us to dinner, sat with us in church, and reminded us that we weren't alone. Looking back, those simple acts of kindness became some of the greatest gifts God used in our healing. In this episode, we share several of those stories and talk about why you don't have to have all the answers to make a lasting impact in someone's life. Sometimes the greatest ministry is simply being present. If you know someone walking through a difficult season, we hope this episode reminds you that a small act of love can become something they'll never forget.

Welcome to Summer Shorts, a special summer series featuring bite-sized encouragement from the Equip Collection at AriseSingleMoms.com. In this heartfelt message, Charlotte Rose-Gray, a former single mom and group leader, shares the profound impact that prayer—especially prayer in the moment—has had on her life and leadership. After 15 years of raising her daughter, she reflects on the support and encouragement she received from Arise Single Moms and the powerful example of praying immediately and intentionally for others. Whether in times of struggle or joy, she reminds us that prayer, especially when rooted in Scripture, brings peace, healing, and connection. Charlotte leaves us with a blessing from Philippians 4:6-7, encouraging single moms everywhere to lean into prayer and experience the peace only God can give.
This week we kick off our new summer series, Summer Shorts, big truths from some of the Bible's smallest books, starting with the book of Titus. Paul's letter to Titus covers a lot of ground fast: what it looks like to lead a church with integrity, why sound doctrine matters and must be defended, and how older believers are called to pour into younger generations in real, relational ways. We also dig into one of the most important distinctions in all of scripture: the difference between being saved by works and being saved for works. Because of Christ's death and resurrection, salvation is a gift we could never earn, and that's exactly the point. Freed from the burden of earning God's favor, we get to ask a different question: what good works has God already prepared for me to walk in? That's the life Paul is calling Titus, and all of us, into.
