The Practical Faith Academy Podcast from Cecil Taylor Ministries presents guests who have important things to say about putting your faith into practice. Cecil interviews each guest to understand their life stories and their ideas for living a seven-day practical faith.
Christine Trimpe underwent a dramatic change in her life at age 48. Raised in the church but a self-identified “casual Christian” as an adult, Trimpe reached a point in her life when she was ready to give everything to God, from her obesity to her spiritual heart. In the ten years since, Trimpe has transformed into a passionate Christian who has lost 100 pounds and now helps others with both their faith and weight loss goals. Trimpe describes herself as a joy seeker, looking for joy daily in all circumstances, buoyed by scripture study that guides her life.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
