Thanks for joining us today as we speak with Brenda Seefeldt about her thriving online church Larger Story Church. Brenda is a pastor, speaker, wife, and mom to four men with their own brave stories. Brenda has written a helpful book about the people who have helped her carry her pain, I Wish I Could Take Away Your Pain. This book includes a long list of what not to do as well as the many small things to do that matter. She shares other stories about the beauty of her pain at ⁠https://Bravester.com⁠. Learn more about her new Bible study at ⁠https://trustissueswithGod.com⁠. Also, join her for church on Friday night at https://largerstory.church/

In this thought-provoking episode, we will hear from Brenda who has worked with teens since 1981 to present. She has lived through the teen years in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, 2010s and now into the 2020s. Brenda is currently pastor of Larger Story Church, a church trying church differently. Brenda says, "Like we meet on Friday nights." Brenda is the mom to four now-grown men. This decision of all of her brave decisions has shaped her the most. Brenda did not birth her boys but she did raise her boys to help them break their own generational curses. Her story exemplifies the beauty that Jesus offers. Brenda says, "My brave decisions have led to some smashed-heart seasons of my life. Christians are not exempt from pain and pain is the beginning of growth. I wrote a unique small book about how to really help someone through a smashed-heart season. The book is called I Wish I Could Take Away Your Pain. Yes, it is autobiographical but it is more practical. It’s only 28 pages and has doodles."

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.
