Sometimes it’s in our deepest pain that we hear God the loudest. He may seem quiet in our comfort, but in our heartbreak, confusion, and suffering — He’s not whispering… He’s screaming.
Not in anger, but in invitation.
An invitation to come closer. To surrender. To trust. To discover that even pain has purpose in His hands.

Die Empty: 3 Reminders Before You Leave This Earth
⸻
Opening Line:
Rashawn:
One of the greatest tragedies in life… is to live full and die full. But God’s desire is that we live full—and die empty.
⸻
Quote (Miles Munroe):
“The richest place on earth is the cemetery… because buried in it are dreams that were never fulfilled, books never written, music never played, ideas never shared, and people who never became who they were meant to be.” – Dr. Myles Munroe
⸻
3 Powerful Reminders to Die Empty:
- Discover Your Purpose
You were created on purpose for a purpose.
Don’t wait for someone to validate what God already put inside you.
Pray. Seek. Move.
Don’t die without knowing why you lived.
Bible Verse:
“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” – Ephesians 2:10
⸻
- Pour It Out
Don’t hold back your gifts. Speak. Serve. Write. Lead.
Someone else’s breakthrough is tied to your obedience.
You weren’t meant to be a reservoir. You’re a river. Let it flow.
Miles Munroe Quote:
“Success is not what you have done compared to what others have done. Success is what you have done compared to what you were supposed to do.”
⸻
- Finish Well
Don’t just start strong. Finish faithful.
Die empty by pouring out your calling day by day—until there’s nothing left to give.
Because when it’s all said and done, we want to say what Paul said:
Bible Verse:
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” – 2 Timothy 4:7
⸻
Closing Challenge:
Rashawn:
Don’t die with your song still inside you.
Let your life echo in eternity.
Live full.
Love hard.
And die empty.

I want to give this quote as well from Miles Munroe. He says, success is not what you have done compared to what others have done.

[Intro Hook – 0:00–0:15]
Rashawn (looking straight into camera):
If you feel called to lead your family better—but you’re overwhelmed, unsure, or even discouraged—I’ve got 3 words of advice that could change everything. Let’s talk.
⸻
[Word 1 – PRESENCE – 0:15–0:45]
Rashawn:
The first word is Presence.
Your family doesn’t need a perfect leader—they need a present one.
Put the phone down. Look them in the eyes.
Pray with your kids. Listen to your spouse.
Being there is more powerful than saying all the right things.
⸻
[Word 2 – CONSISTENCY – 0:45–1:15]
Rashawn:
The second word is Consistency.
Leadership isn’t about grand gestures—it’s about showing up every day.
Small habits, repeated in love, create big impact over time.
Lead devotions, speak life, say “I love you,” and do it again tomorrow.
Your consistency builds their confidence.
⸻
[Word 3 – GRACE – 1:15–1:45]
Rashawn:
The third word is Grace.
You’re going to mess up. We all do.
But grace says: “Keep going.”
Lead with humility. Apologize when needed.
And remember—God’s grace covers you as you lead your home.
⸻
[Outro – 1:45–2:00]
Rashawn:
So if you feel called to lead your family—start with presence, consistency, and grace.
You’ve got this.
And more importantly—God’s got you.
Drop a “I’m in” below if you’re ready to step up.

Have you ever felt like every door is closing… like nothing’s working out no matter how hard you try? That might not be failure—it might be God. In this episode, Rashawn unpacks the idea that God will exhaust our options—not to punish us, but to position us. When your plans fall apart, His purpose can finally take center stage. This is your reminder that God meets you at the end of yourself, and that’s where real transformation begins.
🔥 Let this word stir your faith—and invite you to trust again. 👉 Ready to walk in faith, identity, and purpose—while helping others do the same?

Can faith alone truly save us, or does our faith need to be put into action? In this episode, we explore the profound truth that faith without works is dead, as James 2:17 reminds us. We’ll dive deep into what it means to have a living, active faith that not only believes but also transforms lives through deeds of love and service. Discover how true faith is not just about professing belief but demonstrating it through our actions. We’ll look at examples from Scripture, discuss practical ways to live out our faith, and challenge ourselves to be not just hearers of the Word, but doers. Join us as we unpack why faith and works must go hand-in-hand for a vibrant, impactful Christian life.

"Breaking the Chains of Fear: Living Fully in God's Love"
What's your BIGGEST FEAR? Do you relate to being fearful at times...
Fear and love cannot coexist. As believers, we’re called to live out of love, not fear, as fear contradicts the perfect love that comes from God. In this episode, we’ll unpack 1 John 4:18, which reminds us that "perfect love drives out fear." Discover how fear can control our stories if we let it, and why it's vital to embrace God's love to walk in faith, courage, and freedom. Join us as we explore what it means to break free from fear's grip and live a life fully rooted in love, purpose, and trust in God's promises.This description focuses on the contrast between fear and love and emphasizes the believer’s call to live from a place of love.

Anger is a powerful emotion that can either harm or heal, depending on how it's handled. In this episode, we dive into James 1:19-20, where we're reminded to be "quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry."

Whether you struggle with anger or want to help others, join us in seeking a calm, Christ-centered perspective on this vital topic.

How Family Members Help Each Other Grow
By Rick Warren
“Since I . . . have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you.” John 13:14-15 (NLT)
One of the marks of an awesome family—whether it’s your biological family, your adoptive family, or your church family—is that you help each other grow. But how do you do that?
Let me give you two methods that help people grow and two that don’t. These apply in every area of life, not just in families.
Listen in to this episode to learn more about what it takes to thrive as a family.

The goodness of God is overwhelmingly evident in our lives, rather we admit it or not. The Bible says His goodness leads us to repentance and a closer relationship with Him. His love is unconditional, and He desires us to draw near Him.
However, there are times when we may feel that it is best to stay far away from His love. We tend to pursue things that look good but at the end of the day, aren’t good in the long run for us!
Today who are you pursuing?
What are you pursuing?
How can you ask God for help?
The Bible tells us that God is good and His mercy endures forever. We are told to “draw near to God, and He will draw near to you” (James 4:8). His love is available to you today — & He longs to know You more. We can be sure that He will never leave or forsake us, no matter what we have done.
Sometimes, we may feel it is best to stay far away from God’s love. Due to our sin, shame, and struggles.
We may feel that we are too sinful or unworthy of His love. But the truth is that God’s love is unconditional, and He desires us to draw near Him.

Today’s episode will touch your heart, not because of anything we say, but because of what God promises!
Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.— Romans 5:3-5
Let’s ask God to help us to form our character and conform us to Christ!!!
God has forgiven us in Christ. Be tenderhearted and forgiving just as God in Christ forgave you (Ephesians 4:32). What God did in Christ is powerful. It makes change possible. The command to be tenderhearted has more to do with what God did for you than what your mother or your father did to you — and any other person on the face of the planet. This kind of command means you can change. Let’s dive in!

The holiday season can be a difficult time for many people. For those who have experienced a lack of peace, conflict, and messy family dynamics, this time of year can be especially hard. It can be difficult to find joy and peace during this season when so much of it seems to be focused on family and togetherness.
How can we feel so disconnected and lonely in a room full of family? When our job is unstable — and our future seems uncertain? Our lives can seem utterly hopeless.
However, there is hope. Isaiah 26:3 promises us, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast because they trust in you.” This reminder of God’s promise can be a source of comfort and peace even during the most challenging times. We can take comfort in knowing that God is with us and that He will bring us peace and joy, no matter our circumstances.
The holiday season can be a time of joy and peace, but it can also be a lonely and challenging season. However, we can find hope and comfort in God’s promises.
Join us today on today's episode let’s talk about God’s peace that’s available to YOU today!

Do you long to go to bed at night knowing you've done the best you could with what you have as a parent and made a difference in your family life--even if you can't see it yet? Your children depend on you —As Christians, the Bible says during uncertain times that we are children of God and we should depend on our Heavenly Father even when we don’t know what the future holds. Why? Because we know who holds the future— It's easy to compare yourself to other parents and set unrealistic expectations that make you doubt you’re doing what pleases God. You need hope and encouragement to help you find a new place to start on the days you're tempted to quit!
Sharing vulnerable stories of their own struggles and doubts, the Copeland’s will talk to you about Staying confident in God in a sea of fear and uncertainty — because it’s hard.
God is with us even in the uncertainty, the unknown, and the imperfect. God’s presence is with you — His power is in you, and His promises are true — even for you at your lowest.

What do we do when the unexpected happens? Have we pondered to brevity of life lately? As we head into year 2022 here's a reminder.... Living knowing that your life is a vapor is different than just living. Things here are passing away. You’ve got to hold on to what will stand. Savor what matters. Life Is Short. Eternity Is Long. Live Like It. This may sound harsh, but it's true as night follows the day. You will exist forever. You and God are both in the universe to stay—either as friends on His terms, or enemies on yours—which it will be is proven in this life. And this life is a vapor. Two seconds, and we will be gone.
In Today's short meditation, Rashawn Copeland will connect you to a fresh understanding of God and a renewed relationship with Him. You’ll find your faith stirred to make every day count for Christ when you consider life as a vapor.
Time is precious. We are fragile. Life is short. Eternity is long. Every minute counts. Oh, to be a faithful steward of the breath God has given me. Three texts resound in my ears: “Redeem the time” (Ephesians 5:16 ); “It is required of stewards that one be found trustworthy” (1 Corinthians 4:2); “His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored even more than all of them, yet not I, but the grace of God with me” (1 Corinthians 15:10).

How would you describe your walk with God? Fresh and passionate? Vibrant and full of life? Stagnant? Nonexistent? No matter where you are on your walk, that’s exactly where God promises to meet you–even if it’s messy.
Sharing his own story of spiritual drifting, popular online pastor Rashawn Copeland encourages you to accept yourself as a glorious work in progress, a beloved child in whom God delights, a person on the brink of revival. Anchoring everything in Scripture, he shows you how to start your walk with God now, even amid your mess. Even in addiction, doubt, depression, fear, and years spent running from God; he shows it is possible to:
find God’s love and acceptance
develop strong character
choose to rejoice
move out of your mess
see life through God’s eyes
be a loving person in a hateful world
never settle for less than God’s best
The change you long to see in the world starts in your own heart. Thankfully, that’s exactly where God is waiting for you.
Starting at a young age, kids are being fed damaging misinformation about sexuality, gender identity, and human biology. As a parent, it’s up to you to help your children understand God’s truth about these integral concepts in the face of the candy-coated lies that saturate today’s world.
In the footsteps of the bestselling Mama Bear Apologetics comes this invaluable guide to training your kids to know and respect God’s design in a world that has rejected it. This book will equip you to…
understand God’s design for gender, sex, marriage, and family as a beautiful portrait that reveals the nature of God Himself
identify the tactics being used to trick children into adopting an unbiblical view of sexuality under the guise of Christian-sounding words like love, identity, tolerance, and justice
teach your kids to treat those who hold different beliefs with gentle, Christlike compassion without compromising biblical values
As society continues to blur the lines of what is good, true, and acceptable, God’s standards remain clear and unchanging. This book will give you the wisdom to confidently raise your children to understand sex and gender through a biblical lens.

We are at war. Not with a foreign government or domestic terrorists or a creepy new artificial intelligence hell-bent on taking over the world. No, it’s a war we feel deep inside our own chests: We are at war with lies.
The problem isn’t so much that we tell lies but that we live them. We let them into our bodies, and they sabotage our peace. All around us in the culture and deep within our own body memories are lies: deceptive ideas that wreak havoc on our emotional health and spiritual well-being, and deceptive ideas about who God is, who we are, and what the good life truly is.
The choice is not whether to fight or not fight, but whether we win or surrender.

What do we do when tragedy strikes? Where do we run.... When a loved one dies suddenly, young, or by suicide, families and friends are often left in shock-riddled grief. Shock and stigmas often isolate and stall healing. Even as grievers are yearning to connect with others. Today we will talk to my friend Heidi Paulec about her new book, Abiding Light is a four-generation testimony-rich resource for those grieving this kind of loss and for the community who supports them. It can be read alone or in a group as it serves as a companion to foster compassionate care and conversation through deep grief.

Our stories are riddled with the sting of rejection. It's feeling like a failure or being heartbroken. It's being left out or misunderstood.

Dissatisfied with your life? Yeah, most of us have been there. There’s no shame in wanting to be happy, but real satisfaction often eludes us. At best, what fleeting happiness we find tends to dribble away in never-ending debts, stressful deadlines, and mindless scrolling. At worst, it’s chased away by anxiety, depression, or fallout from our selfishness. Here’s the truth: whether we hunt for happiness in parties, bars, the workplace hustle, or even in church pews, we’ll wind up shortchanged. Why? Because we don’t see our lives as beautiful. But God wants something better for you—happiness so real this world might think it’s too good to be true.

Have you ever struggled with demons? What is Our Fascination with the Other Side? On today's episode we are joined by investigative reporter Billy Hallowell as he delves into the strange phenomena of supernatural activity. Themes of demonic possession, exorcism, and ghosts have overtaken Hollywood, with countless films and TV shows delving into the age-old struggle against evil. But the question is why? Even with so much focus on the topic, there seems to be very little public knowledge and discussion about the theology and real-life claims surrounding demons. Quite often, many people remain silent about their experiences or resort to quietly whispering about what they’ve seen, heard, or felt for fear of being labeled as crazy.

Today were gonna talk about all things Depression and the joy we may be missing out on... Mental illness loves to tell lies. One of those lies is that you really should be able to manage what you're struggling with. Pastor and psychotherapist Ryan Casey Waller says no.

And yet, as Waller has experienced personally, the battle can be lonely and discouraging. But it doesn't have to be.
Combining practical theology, clinical insights, and deep empathy, Waller offers a rare mix of companionship and truth, inviting us to experience joy and freedom in Christ on this episode of the show: Snag his book here:https://www.amazon.com/Depression-Anxiety-Other-Things-About/dp/1400221323/

We're told that the key to happiness is self-love. Instagram influencers, mommy bloggers, self-help gurus, and even Christian teachers promise that if we learn to love ourselves, we'll be successful, secure, and complete. But the promise doesn't deliver. Instead of feeling fulfilled, our pursuit of self-love traps us in an exhausting cycle: as we strive for self-acceptance, we become addicted to self-improvement. The truth is we can't find satisfaction inside ourselves because we are the problem.
