Doors don’t open themselves—you turn the handle. We close the year with a candid, energizing review of what it took to publish weekly, scale our storytelling, and keep the heart of the show intact while life was loud. From recording between two full-time jobs to partnering with Holy Culture, we break down the systems, sacrifices, and small wins that made a big year possible.
We revisit the moments that changed us: a shot-on-Threads invitation that brought Kev On Stage to our set and affirmed that bold asks can rewrite your map; a legacy-building sit-down with Dr. Bobby Jones that married excellence with longevity; and a heartfelt conversation with Jordan G. Welch that turned a hard moving day into a reminder of why presence matters. You’ll hear how we hosted authors launching new books, welcomed artists like Portia Love and Anike to share raw faith and resilience, and shaped a studio culture guests trust for fair questions and real value.
We also share what the data told us—why solo episodes deepen the bond with this community—and how that insight guides our 2026 plan: more direct talks, elevated production, smarter travel for in-person interviews, and guests who bring both story and substance. The four episodes with our immediate family anchor everything, offering a living archive of love, humor, and truth we want future generations to keep. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to step through your own God-given door, consider this your push.
Listen, share with someone who needs courage, and tell us the door you’ll walk through next. Subscribe, leave a review, and bring a friend along for the journey—we’re just getting started.
