In Totality with Megan Ashley

What's up family? This week i'm back with a conversation on anxiety, surrender, and the peace of God.

I’ve been going through Philippians 4 and what it means to bring everything to God in prayer: every request, every worry, every need, and every anxious thought. So often, we say we trust God, but our minds are still racing and our hearts are still carrying what He invited us to surrender. 

I talk through making ...

This week, I’m humbled and honored to bring you a conversation with someone whose ministry has made a huge impact in my walk recently— Pastor and Author Francis Chan. If you’ve been with me this season of In Totality, you know I’ve been taking my Patreon community through his latest book, Beloved, and this conversation is one that I've been praying for— and I cannot wait for you to hear it.

Beloved has deeply shaped how...

So many of us are living with an identity shaped by the world, our feelings, our achievements, our past, our pain, our personality, or what other people have said about us. But scripture gives us a different foundation. Our identity is not something we discover inside ourselves; it is something declared by God.

In this episode, I'm here with the team talking through what it means to be created in the image of God, rebor...

This week I'm super excited for you guys to listen in on this episode! I'm joined by Trey Heflin, who you may be familiar with if you follow 2819 Church's worship team.

This season has been anchored in John 15, where Jesus reminds us to remain in His love. In this episode, that invitation continues through a conversation about worship, surrender, obedience, and what it truly means to give God your whole life.

This is...

Hey guys! This week, i'm back with the team for an unconventional episode where I answer some questions from my Patreon Village!

We discuss topics of marriage, trusting God in seasons of singleness, dating in Christ with wisdom and intention, and how to love others from a place of intimacy with the Lord. 

We also unpack healthy boundaries, how to rely on community when dating, the voice of the Holy Spirit, and so mu...

In this weeks episode, I’m reflecting on what it means to truly rest in the steadfast love of God.

So many of us are walking through seasons that feel uncertain, painful, and stretching. Maybe you’ve been trying to stay faithful, but if you’re honest, you’re tired. Tired of waiting. Tired of praying. Tired of not understanding what God is doing. In this conversation, I wanted to slow down and anchor us in the truth that...

This week, I share about the recent unexpected loss of one of my longest and dearest friends, and the ways this particular grief has reshaped my perspective.

I talk about the tension of suffering and faith, how trials expose why we truly follow Christ, and why grief for the believer is never without hope. I reflect on scriptures like 2 Corinthians 1, 1 Peter 1, Matthew 5, and 1 Thessalonians 4, and how they've anchored ...

Hey fam, we are back this week with a conversation that I think so many parents need.

A major part of my life is being a mom, and in this episode I wanted to slow down and talk about what it really means to raise children in a home where God is not just a topic we bring up when life goes wrong, but the theme of the home itself.

So often, parenting can become focused on behavior, structure, and getting through the day...

Hey guys! We are back this week with a conversation about something so many believers wrestle with: can you really follow Jesus without being deeply connected to His people?

In this episode, we talk about why Christianity was never meant to be lived alone. In a culture that celebrates independence, self-protection, and doing faith on your own terms, it can be easy to believe that prayer, worship, and Bible reading are e...

This week, I’m back with the team to talk about the importance of pausing to pray and seek God's direction as Christians, before we publicly respond to things online, or create content for public consumption that dishonors others.

We’re living in a time where everyone feels pressure to react quickly, share every opinion, and defend every point of view. But as believers, we are not called to move at the speed of society....

This week, I'm reflecting with the team on my experience witnessing Jackie and Jordan practice obedience during the Blameless concert weekend that took place in February. We're talking about what it means to fix our gaze on Jesus when fear, doubt, and uncertainty can cause a hesitation to obey. 

In Matthew 14, we see Peter walk on water only while his eyes are fixed on Jesus, but the moment he focuses on the wind a...

In Totality Podcast is back for a season 3 return this week! 

This season is anchored in John 15, where Jesus says, “Remain in My love.” And so I want to slow down with you and allow scripture to call us back to something we forget so easily: joyful obedience doesn’t come from striving, it comes from abiding.

So many of us are trying to follow God from a place of pressure, like we have to earn closeness, approval, or pr...

This week, I’m sharing another special moment from the live podcast back in October, where I’m reading through 1 Thessalonians 5, and letting Scripture bring us back to what we forget most easily: who we are in Christ.

This passage is such a steady reminder that we are children of light. We’re not called to live in fear, anxiety, or spiritual numbness, but to stay awake, anchored, and strengthened in the Lord. 

As I...

It’s been a full year of deep conversations, quiet revelations, and holy tension.

In this special “Best of Season 2” episode of In Totality, we revisit the most powerful moments from 2025, the raw confessions, and Spirit-led wisdom that shaped us. From surrendering plans to embracing stillness, this recap walks through what God revealed in the waiting, the stretching, and the refining.

Whether you’ve been with u...

In this week’s episode of In Totality, I’m back with my girl Dinorah Peña for Part 2 of our conversation.

We talk through the moments after the “yes”, when obedience is heavy, sanctification feels slow, and trusting God isn’t as simple as it sounds. We share about the struggle of delighting in the Lord, turning away from pride, and depending on the Holy Spirit during times of anxiousness.

This conversation is fu...

In this week’s episode of In Totality, I’m joined once again by my girl Dinorah Peña, and we had a really great conversation about all the things!

What started as a casual conversation turned to a Spirit-led dialogue on what it looks like to meditate on God's word and truly lean on the Holy Spirit, the weight of saying “yes” to God, and obedience.

We talk through what it looks like to follow God even when you feel unqualifie...

In this week's episode we are LIVE for our 100th episode of In Totality! I honestly can't believe we've reached this far in our podcast journey, but it's a true testament of God's faithfulness when we obey and give Him a serious yes. I'm joined by my best friend, Jackie Hill Perry, and we have an open conversation about sanctification, and the very real struggle of becoming more like Christ.

We talk through the frustration ...

In this week’s episode, I’m joined on the couch by Gloria Umanah for the very first time on In Totality, to share her story of survival, identity, and the war for her life.

We unpack the seeds of trauma planted in childhood, the quiet despair masked by performance, and the miracle of choosing hope. Gloria opens up about her lifeversary, and how one whisper from God changed everything.

If you’ve ever wondered if your pai...

In this week’s episode, I’m unpacking a powerful, dual-story moment in Scripture that has been ministering deeply to my heart—Jairus’ daughter and the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5.

We explore what it means to pursue Jesus in desperation, to press through discouragement, and to discover that He often gives us more than we were even asking for. I share how this passage has encouraged me in a season of spiritual fat...
