    • S3E3: Surprised by Grace - Brad Brenneman on Work, Generosity, and Joy
      Jan 22 2026

      Raised in a deeply Mennonite home, Brad Brenneman grew up surrounded by faith, service, and spiritual discipline. But it wasn’t until adulthood—after success, ambition, and an unexpected sense of emptiness—that grace became personal.

      In this episode, Brad shares a story best described as “surprised by grace”:

      • Growing up with a strong spiritual heritage—and learning faith for himself

      • Leading businesses with humility, stewardship, and love for people

      • Saying yes to international adoption - and watching grace multiply

      • Learning generosity as a pathway to joy, not obligation

      If you’ve ever:

      • Wondered whether your career could truly be a calling

      • Struggled to reconcile ambition with faith

      • Felt God nudging you toward generosity, leadership, or adoption

      • Believed in grace, but wanted to experience it more deeply

      Brad’s journey offers a compelling reminder: God often does His deepest work quietly... through faithfulness, surrender, and everyday obedience.

      🎧 Listen now to hear how a life rooted in grace can shape work, family, generosity, and legacy.

    • S3E02: Naming My Parkinson’s... and Learning to Laugh with Tim Johnson
      Jan 15 2026

      Tim Johnson was serving as a senior pastor when he received a life-altering Parkinson’s diagnosis. Overnight, certainty disappeared, plans unraveled, and the future became fragile.

      In this second episode of This Is My Story, Tim shares the story after the diagnosis:

      • Hearing the word Parkinson’s and choosing not to waste it

      • Letting go of leadership, identity, and control

      • Learning to trust God without demanding answers

      • Finding peace, and even joy, while living with uncertainty

      • Discovering a new calling rooted in care, presence, and hope

      This isn’t a conversation about healing formulas. It’s about faith when the miracle doesn’t come the way you expect.

      If you’ve ever:

      • Faced a diagnosis you didn’t see coming

      • Wondered why God didn’t intervene

      • Struggled to trust when your future feels unsteady

      Tim’s journey offers a steady, honest reminder: God may not remove the suffering, but He never removes His presence.

      🎧 Listen now to hear how faith, surrender, and purpose can grow even in the shadow of Parkinson’s.

    • S3E01: Carly Patterson: Olympic Gold Didn’t Define Me... God Did
      Jan 8 2026

      Carly Patterson was just 16 when she won Olympic gold - then suddenly had to figure out who she was without gymnastics.

      In our first episode of Season 3: This Is My Story, Carly shares the rarely told story after the medals:

      • The identity crisis that followed peak success

      • The pressure to live up to “gold” for the rest of her life

      • Her unexpected faith journey when control slipped away

      • A painful season of infertility—and learning to release outcomes

      • How purpose looks different when the spotlight fades

      This isn’t a story about gymnastics. It’s a story about what we do when our biggest win doesn’t bring peace.

      If you’ve ever:

      • Reached a milestone and still felt unfulfilled

      • Struggled with identity after a major life transition

      • Tried to control an outcome that wouldn’t budge

      Carly’s journey will meet you right where you are—and remind you that your worth was never tied to your achievement.

      🎧 Listen now to hear how faith, surrender, and resilience reshaped life after Olympic gold.
