  • Trusting God After Losing Your Parents, Marriage, and Ministry with Lonnie Potts
    2025/05/06

    Lonnie Potts is my favorite preacher. He played an instrumental role in my life as a young father, husband, and professional.

    I'm thrilled to have him on the podcast today, to honor him, number one, but also to give you hope that when all seems lost...God gives a way forward.

    Lonnie shares what it's like to experience crushing failure as a Christian, and to turn to God for redemption and healing.

    Within a very short time, Lonnie lost both parents, his marriage, and the ministry he'd worked so hard to build.

    But God is good, and failure does NOT define you.

  • Ep 30: Hope For The Abandoned, Betrayed, and Forgotten
    2025/04/22

    Feeling abandoned, betrayed, or forgotten?

    I know the feeling.

    And so did Joseph in the Bible.

    But the story of Joseph, my story, and yes, your story, too, is NOT over no matter how bad things are.

    God RESTORES. He USES the hard parts of your life.

    Joseph kept going through all of it and ended up saving not only all of Egypt, but his own family. His household.

    Keep going, because God hasn't finished your story, yet.

    (This is a talk Curtis Christopher gave to the students of Ohio Christian University in April 2025.)

  • Ep 29: How to Grieve Your Health After 100 Surgeries
    2025/04/08

    100 surgeries.

    Her body is breaking down, making things like work, driving, even turning her head to the side impossible.

    Yet LeeAnnw is one of the most loving, caring, positive people I've ever met.

    She's literally my hero because of how much she's gone through...with a smile on her face!

    LeeAnne's story of grief is not about losing a person, but about losing a future she thought she'd have.

    Losing mobility, independence...even losing a pain-free life, which most of us just take for granted.

    Whether you just got bad health news, or you're a caregiver to someone who has, this is an episode where we hope you'll be inspired and come to lean ever more on the Lord.
