In this episode, Haley and Dustin talk with Dove Award–winning songwriter and founder of Music for the Soul, Steve Siler.
Steve shares his hope story of how he and his wife processed the difficult news that their son would be born with spina bifida – and how God provided comfort, hope, and supportive friends. He also opens up about the healing power of music and how it can help people express pain, process emotions, and experience God’s comfort. Steve offers encouragement to ministry leaders on using music as a tool for care and shares resources that speak to anxiety, mental health, and real-life struggles with honesty and hope.
Subscribe to the podcast and tune in each week as Haley and Dustin share with you what the Bible says about real-life issues with compassion, warmth, and wit.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
