  • Trusting Jesus When Life Feels Uncertain | John 8:12 with Ash Couchman
    Oh hey! It’s just me this week — voice a little croaky after a big weekend at a church conference, but still so excited to be diving into God’s Word with you! Today we’re unpacking one of Jesus’ boldest “I Am” statements in John 8:12:"I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." This verse is more than just poetic — it’s a powerful reminder that no matter how dark life feels, we’re not alone. Jesus doesn’t just shine light, He is the light. And when we follow Him, we get to walk in clarity, truth, and hope — even when life is messy or confusing. We’ll explore the context of this verse, what it meant to the people Jesus was speaking to, and what it means for us today. If you've ever felt like you were stumbling through a dark season, I pray this conversation encourages you to hold tight to the Light that never fades.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • It’s either I trust God or I’m not going to make it | Danny Gokey on Loss, Hope & Psalm 55:22
    OH HEY! We’ve got a very special guest on the podcast today — Danny Gokey! Danny joins me for a powerful and personal conversation around Psalm 55:22 “Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.” In this episode, Danny opens up about navigating heartbreak, including the loss of his first wife, and how in the most emotionally overwhelming moments, he had to make a life-changing decision:“It’s either I trust You, or I’m not going to make it.” From grief and confusion to faith and calling, Danny shares how casting his cares on God brought healing, purpose, and a ministry he never planned for. We also chat about emotions, distraction, victimhood, and why real trust is more than a feeling — it’s a decision. If you’re walking through something heavy or need a reminder that God still has you — this one’s for you. Let’s jump in!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • The Sacred Side of Serving | Finding Meaning Beyond the Applause with Steph Blair
    Oh hey! Today, Ash wraps up a beautiful week of conversation with Steph Blair by diving into Matthew 20:28: "The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." This verse becomes the heartbeat of a rich chat about what real servanthood looks like. Ash and Steph unpack how serving isn’t always glamorous - but it is holy, transformational, and deeply satisfying. They talk about why we’re invited to be the hands and feet of Jesus, why serving is often messy (and why that’s okay!), and how small acts - like paying for someone’s Macca’s, can spark a ripple of God’s love. 🎧 Tune in if you’ve ever wondered, “Is this really making a difference?” or if you're craving a reminder that God doesn’t need us to serve — He invites us into the miracle of it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Choosing Thanks Over Fear | Psalm 33:5 with Steph Blair
    Today, Steph Blair joins Ash to unpack Psalm 33:5, which says: "The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love" This episode is a joyful deep dive into what it means to see God’s character reflected in creation and how thankfulness is more than a feel-good practice — it’s a godly, transformative act. Steph vulnerably shares how gratitude helped reframe her identity and how science even backs God’s design: the same part of our brain responsible for anxiety is activated by thankfulness — and they can’t operate at the same time! Mind. Blown. If you’re in a tough season or just need a reminder that God’s steadfast love surrounds you, this episode will lift your heart and fix your eyes on Him. Worship, neuroscience, poetry, and praise — it’s all here. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Your Identity Isn’t What You Do | 1 Samuel 2:2 with Steph Blair
    Oh hey! Today, Steph Blair joins Ash to unpack 1 Samuel 2:2, which says: “There is no one holy like the Lord; there is no one besides you; there is no rock like our God.” In this episode, Steph shares the powerful backstory of Hannah, whose praise declared God as her rock even when her life didn’t look how she imagined. Ash and Steph chat about why this matters for us today, how our identity can easily become wrapped up in what we achieve or what we long for, and why declaring God’s holiness realigns our hearts with what’s true. Plus, Steph vulnerably shares her journey with dyslexia, shifting her identity from what she couldn’t do to who God is – and how that changed everything. 🎧 Don’t miss this one if you’ve ever asked, “Who am I, really?” – it’s an episode full of hope, challenge, and God’s unshakeable truth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
