Episode 4: Sharon Hodde Miller

This week, we're talking to Sharon Hodde Miller, 2-time author and church planter. She's got some wisdom for us around what it means to love God with our intellect and we get into some theology talk, so get excited. 

If you’re looking for a woman who is fun and full of joy and means business, it’s Sharon. She loves Jesus, women in the local church and telling the dang truth. In this episode we talked about how to think theologically, how mentors challenge us and how we can disagree with some people and still be united.

Episode 2: Ellie Holcomb

Singer/Songwriter Ellie Holcomb joins us this week to talk about the women who influenced her, how to place your identity in what matters and how Christ is an anchor in times of grief. 

Ellie Holcomb lights up the room while somehow being able to also go deep into challenging and heavy truths. She relies on the Word of God and doesn’t hesitate to speak out what needs to be said. In this conversation, you’ll learn about the teachers who invested in her and called out gifts she didn’t realize she had, how to place your identity in who Jesus says you are and how to cling to Hope in seasons of darkness.

Episode 1: Cheryl Luke

Intentionality is the key to cheering for others. Melissa talks to Cheryl Luke about caring for one another, mothering (even if you don't have kids of your own!) and how we can bring Christ into everything from mentoring to grocery shopping. 

I can’t imagine starting off this show with anyone other than Cheryl Luke. She is wise and kind and slows you down in all the best ways. Cheryl and I met a few years back through Camp Well and became fast friends. A phrase she likes to use is, “Lord, we’ll be careful to give you the glory,” and it makes me stop and give thanks regularly. In this episode, we talk about what it means to live with intention and humility, how to challenge others to live in freedom and, in what is probably my favorite feature of the show, she cheers for some other gals.
