Do you ever wonder how mindful content consumption can transform your spiritual journey? Join me, Megan Ashley, as we sit down with our much-anticipated guest this week, Pastor Jerry Flowers Jr. lead pastors of Time of Celebration Ministries Church in Houston, TX. Together, we unravel this profound topic, cautioning against the alluring but potentially shallow practice of "buffet style" sermon listening. Pastor Jerry highlights the importance of engaging deeply with spiritual teachings. Drawing from his rich experience as a student pastor, Pastor Jerry shares how he crafts relatable illustrations to help bridge the gap between complex theological concepts and everyday understanding, ensuring the core message of the Word remains intact and impactful.


In this enlightening episode, we delve into the intricate dynamics of generational discipleship and the unique upbringing of a pastor's child. Pastor Jerry offers a heartfelt glimpse into his life, emphasizing the significance of witnessing genuine faith in one's parents and the delicate balance of discipline and grace in a spiritual household. As we explore the lives and emotional challenges faced by pastors, Pastor Jerry underscores the necessity of authenticity and empathy in leadership.

Are You A Charlotte?

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.
