  Better Than a Diamond: Finding the Treasure You've Been Missing

  Oct 6, 202644 min

  Months after losing her husband, Shannon sat alone on a Florida beach, surrounded by happy couples and feeling the full weight of her grief. Then the Lord told her to ask Him for anything. So she did. She asked Him to help her find a diamond in the sand. What happened next still gives her chills. In this episode, Shannon and Joy talk about the treasure hiding in plain sight that so many of us walk right past. They explore what it really means to seek God with your whole heart (Jeremiah 29:13), why the Bible was meant to be a mirror and not a pair of binoculars, and how a crowd standing at the Water Gate in Nehemiah 8 discovered that the joy of the Lord is our strength. You'll also hear what God whispered to Shannon on a tiny island in St. Lucia, and why so many believers know just enough about God to feel guilty but not enough to feel free. If you've been settling for the world's dollar-store substitutes, this conversation will make you thirsty for the real thing.

  What if Jesus Texted You Today?

  Sep 29, 202648 min

  It's Throwback Tuesday! We're going to look back at an earlier episode where Joy and Shannon look at "heart posture," the quiet stance of the heart that shows in our words, our calendars, and our bank statements. From David's cry in Psalm 51, "Create in me a pure heart, O God," to Jesus' warning that no one can serve two masters, they ask some honest questions. Where is your treasure? Are you standing on the outside while sitting down on the inside? And what would you say if Jesus texted you today asking to spend time with you? It's a gentle but convicting conversation about distraction, grief, perspective, and the sweetness of simply sitting in His presence. Pull up a chair. It's time for a heart check.

  The Catapult Principle: Why Your Pain Has a Purpose

  Sep 22, 202639 min

  Some seasons stretch us in ways we never asked for — and Shannon and Joy know that feeling firsthand. In this heart-to-heart, they open up about the hard, hidden work God does in us when life feels tight and uncertain, drawing from Joseph's own journey from pit to palace and a sweet picture from Psalm 4: "Thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress." Grab your coffee and settle in for a conversation that feels like sitting with a good friend, one that will remind you that whatever you're walking through right now, God is making room in you for more.

  Protect the Anointing: How to Guard the Presence of God in a Power-Hungry World

  Sep 15, 202643 min

  What if the thing robbing your joy isn't a big dramatic attack — but a quiet, sweet invitation to just... stay in bed, skip the Word, or avoid that person who gets on your nerves? Shannon and Joy unpack Isaiah 61 and the anointing God places on every believer. You'll hear Joy's personal story of choosing to trust God through deep grief, and why the church can leave you feeling emptier than when you walked in if you're only showing up to consume. This episode will challenge how you guard your time, your peace, and God's presence in your daily life. Because the anointing can't be bought or sold — it can only be received.

  Don't Find It Strange: Why Rest Is Warfare (and the Anointing Costs Everything)

  Sep 8, 202643 min

  After the biggest spiritual win of your year, why does everything suddenly fall apart? Shannon and Joy sit with Elijah under the broom tree. Exhausted, afraid, and ready to quit, they uncover something the church rarely says out loud: sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is take a nap. From Elijah's angel-delivered meal to the pressing of the olive that produces anointing oil, this conversation walks through why painful trials often follow our greatest victories, why the enemy targets us hardest right after a breakthrough, and why rest isn't weakness — it's a weapon. If you've ever prayed "Lord, I've had enough," this episode is your reminder: don't find it strange, and don't fight the press.
