Abigail sits down with friends she grew up with in church for a conversation full of honesty, humor, and the kind of stories only lifelong church kids can tell. Together they unpack the pros and cons of growing up in the "pews", the pressure of feeling like you “don’t have a real testimony,” and the moment each of them realized their faith had to become personal — not inherited, not expected, but chosen. The episode ends with a fun “Would You Rather” game that brings out the best kind of chaos. It’s nostalgic, relatable, and full of encouragement for anyone learning to own their faith journey.

In this episode, Abigail and Matt dig into a truth we all need to hear again and again: God doesn’t wait for us to be perfect before He calls us — He meets us even with our rough edges and still chooses to work through us.

- We’re called to reflect Jesus, even when our humanity shows

- God’s love and forgiveness remain steady when we fall short

- The Holy Spirit empowers us to live out our calling

- God delights in using imperfect people to share His perfect love

It’s an encouraging reminder that grace isn’t just something God gives — it’s something He uses to shape us, send us, and strengthen us. If you’ve ever felt unqualified, inconsistent, or too messy to be used by God, this conversation will breathe fresh hope into your heart.

What worship song would be your walk‑in theme?

Which verse has carried you through a tough season?

What is God teaching you in this season?

…and plenty more thoughtful (and sometimes hilarious) prompts

In this episode of *Those Who Trust*, Abigail dives into a challenging but deeply important conversation about authority, obedience, and the posture of a Christ‑centered life. Drawing from **1 Peter 2:13–17** and **Romans 13:1–7**, she explores what it means to honor the leaders God has placed over us — even when we don’t agree with every decision they make.

This episode unpacks:

- Why **all authority comes from God**, not human systems

- How Christians are called to obey laws and leaders as an act of obedience to Christ

- The difference between blind loyalty and biblical submission

- How our honorable lives can silence accusations and point people to Jesus

- Why believers should be **actively involved** in the political process to influence change with wisdom and integrity

Abigail & Matt remind us that honoring authority isn’t about politics — it’s about discipleship. It’s about living in a way that reflects God’s character, respects others, and keeps our conscience clear before Him.

If you’re wrestling with how to navigate faith and government in a complicated world, this conversation will ground you, challenge you, and encourage you to walk in truth with humility and courage.

Abigail is back with David for a New Year episode that’s equal parts fun, reflective, and spiritually grounding.

Together, they explore:

- Where they saw God move most clearly last year

- The spiritual disciplines they want to grow in

- How to begin the journey of letting God lead your steps

- Practical ways to build healthy rhythms with Scripture, prayer, and community

- Why stewardship matters — from eating well and exercising to embracing rest and balance
