My Grandparents Gave Me Coffee… Look What Happened
This week, we’re talking grandparents, family traits, Southern coffee, talking WAY too fast, faith, funny memories, and the legacy we leave behind. From coffee-milk and homemade biscuits to trees planted decades ago, Heather reminds us that some of the most important things we inherit aren’t genetic at all…they’re faith, love, wisdom, perseverance, and the example of those who came before us. And yes… there may also be a fully caffeinated conversation that proves she should probably stay on decaf. Come laugh, remember the people who helped shape us, and be encouraged to think about what you’re passing on to the next generation. Because some things run in the family…and some things are planted in the heart. StrengthInTheJourney.com

Wait… Did You Hear That?
Sometimes the things we hear are worth paying attention to…including the things coming from the next room while you're LIVE on Facebook! This week, Heather shares a few hilarious moments from raising boys before turning to a much more important question from Hebrews 2:1: Are we really listening to God, or are we slowly drifting? Life gets loud. We get busy. We get distracted. But God's Word hasn't changed, Jesus hasn't moved, and sometimes we simply need to stop and pay attention. Come laugh with us, dig into God's Word, and be encouraged to listen closely for what God may be saying to you today. Real Life • Real Faith • Real Encouragement StrengthInTheJourney.com

Give Without Keeping Score
What happens when you give without keeping score? ❤️ This week on Strength In The Journey, we’re talking about kindness, generosity, gratitude and the surprising ways God sometimes brings yesterday’s kindness back around years later. There are funny stories, a few tears, a child who once wrapped up everybody’s LOST belongings as Christmas presents 😂, and one drive-through moment that proves Heather apparently cares so much about feeding everybody else that she almost forgot herself!🥤 But underneath all the laughter is a reminder desperately needed: Don’t let somebody else’s ingratitude stop you from being generous. Come laugh, maybe cry a little, and let’s remember why we give in the first place. Oh and watch out for bugs! 🎙️ Strength In The JourneyReal Life • Real Faith • Real Encouragement StrengthInTheJourney.com

The God Who Never Misses an Appointment

If you're waiting on an answer, walking through a hard season, or wondering why God hasn't moved yet, this episode is for you.
