Whatever Is Excellent with Leanne Tuggle

Culture is loud about what “success” should look like, but the heart knows when something doesn’t fit. I sit down with my friend Sarah, a military spouse and mom of three boys, to talk about homemaking, motherhood, and...

The culture has a lot to say about women and the home, but most of it leaves us either defensive, exhausted, or quietly ashamed. I want to start somewhere steadier: what Scripture actually says home is for, and why our...

September flips a switch for a lot of us. The pace changes, the cozy months show up, and we start craving a clean slate that’s more than new school supplies and a fresh calendar. We’re kicking off season seven with a...

Church can feel like something we attend or something we build. That difference matters more than we think, especially for our kids. I share a personal story that starts with a 13-year-old begging to join a mission trip...

A new school year can feel like a fresh start, but it can also bring a fresh wave of chaos if we try to wing it. We want something better than frantic mornings and frazzled afternoons, so we’re sharing the practical...

Middle school hallways can feel like a daily referendum on who your kid is and where they belong. As a parent, that pressure hits me too, especially when the loudest cultural messages say truth is whatever you feel in...

Summer boredom has a way of sneaking up on us. One minute we’re optimistic with big plans, and the next we’re staring down sibling squabbles, restless kids, and the temptation to hand over a screen just to get a quiet...

The internet didn’t just change childhood, it changed what childhood gets exposed to. Many of us grew up thinking pornography was something you had to intentionally seek out, yet today kids can stumble onto explicit...

Your to-do list can look holy and still be powered by anxiety. We talk through one of the most misunderstood Gospel moments, Jesus in the home of Martha and Mary, and why the real issue is not service but worry. Martha...

Raise your hand if you have a “big feeler” in your house or if you are one yourself. Strong emotions can be beautiful and God-given, but when feelings take the driver’s seat they start making decisions they were never...

A swollen lump. Years of fatigue and infections. Two biopsies that said “benign.” Then the diagnosis flips everything: thyroid cancer, a fast second surgery, and the question so many of us whisper when fear is loud what...

You can love your home and still be called to leave it. We talk about what it looks like to move every few years as a military family and refuse to let constant change turn you cynical, rushed, or numb. Instead, we...

The phrase “you only have 18 summers with your kids” can hit like a warning, and if you already feel stretched thin, it can trigger instant guilt. I wrestle with that tension and share a better way to hold the idea: not...

Summer can feel like the best kind of slow and the most exhausting kind of loud at the exact same time. Longer days, bored kids, extra meals, constant interruptions, and the quiet pressure to “make it magical” can leave...

Plans change fast, but God’s faithfulness doesn’t. I sit down with Denise, a pastor’s wife of five decades, to talk about what it really looks like to walk with Jesus daily when life refuses to fit a neat timeline. From...
