How do you build a Bible reading habit that actually lasts? Alexis sits down with Eva Kubasiak, who grew up in a pastor's home and gave her life to Christ at nine, but spent years wrestling with depression after she decided she would not follow God unless she could feel Him. Eva shares how she realized she had made her feelings an idol, what changed when she finally read the whole Bible for the first time, and how reading through it in 90 days turned into a consistent habit she now does multiple times a year. They talk about the difference between reading and studying the Bible, what to do when you fall behind on your reading plan, and why God's first questions to Adam and Eve, "Where are you?" and "Who told you that?", are an invitation back instead of condemnation. Alexis also opens up about giving up social media after her husband told her she never listened, and they get honest about how phones compete with time in God's Word. This conversation is a reminder that Bible reading is about meeting with God, not checking a box.
Alexis and Abby are back in the studio for a real conversation about prayer, what it actually looks like, and why it is so easy to let it become an afterthought instead of the foundation of your walk with God. They talk through what it means to have a secret place, a specific spot where you go to be fully honest and surrendered before God, and why kneeling in prayer can be a posture worth trying even if it feels uncomfortable at first. They get into confession, journaling, praying out loud with strangers, and what it looks like to shift from praying only for yourself to praying for your family, your community, and the people around you. Rooted in Matthew 6:6, this episode is a reminder that the secret place is where real intimacy with God is built, long before it ever shows up in public.
Alexis catches up with an old friend Peyton Horton for a conversation about the winding road that brought her back to Jesus. Peyton opens up about a near fatal car accident in college, becoming a single mom in Atlanta, and the moment she felt God clearly tell her to move back to Warner Robins in the middle of an engagement that was not built the way it should have been. She talks honestly about the pruning process that followed, learning to read scripture for herself instead of just hearing about God secondhand, and the season where she finally started shedding things she used to hold onto. Peyton also shares a wild, Spirit led moment of praying for a total stranger at the gym, and what it taught her about being available to God in the smallest moments. This episode is a reminder that you never know who is watching your story, and that hope is always still on the table no matter how messy the middle looks.
What does God actually call you? This episode is Alexis's message from Born Two Praise, the live event celebrating two years of Praises in the Pod. She shares a teaching on identity in Christ and how easily we accept the names the enemy gives us over the names God has already spoken. Alexis walks through her own story of being called fat, hard to deal with, and unqualified, and how a conversation with her mentor Eva led her to actually sit down and ask God what He calls her instead. She breaks down what Scripture says about who you are in Christ, why knowing God has to come before knowing your identity, and how your specific, God given identity can anchor you through any season. Recorded live in front of the women who gathered to celebrate this milestone with PITP.
Alexis sits down with Catherine, a salon owner whose life has taken more unexpected turns than most. Catherine opens up about childhood sexual abuse, running from a painful past into an early marriage that ended in divorce, and a wild season that took her from nursing school to cosmetology to becoming the first female firefighter in her county. She shares how she met her husband, the fear she carried into that relationship, and how the two of them ended up healing together instead of one waiting on the other. Catherine gets honest about celebrate recovery, working through the 12 steps multiple times, and learning how to parent her daughter Lacey without passing down her own trauma. This conversation is raw, hopeful, and full of reminders that God can use every unexpected turn in your story, even the ones that do not make sense until later.
Alexis sits down with Cherrie Burdeshaw, founder of The Potter's House and author of Lord, Change Him or Kill Him, for a deep dive into fasting as a spiritual discipline. Cherrie breaks down what actually happens in your body day by day during a fast, from glycogen depletion to ketosis, and explains why Jesus fasted and why we should too. They talk through the different types of fasts, how long you can safely fast, and the long list of physical and spiritual benefits that come with it. This episode is a practical, no fluff guide for anyone who has wanted to try fasting but did not know where to start, paired with real testimony of what fasting has done in both of their lives. If you have ever said I could never go a day without food, this conversation might change your mind.
Diana wrote in her journal on April 8th, 2003 that God had given her another child and it would not come from her belly. Nine years later, her plane ticket to Uganda to bring home her daughter Esther was dated April 8th, 2012. In this episode Diana and her daughter Laney sit down to share the full story of a faith legacy passed down through generations, a hair loss journey that became a ministry, a business God grew from a ten by ten shop to three states, and a nonprofit called Warrior Wigs that gives free wigs to women and children with cancer and alopecia. This one is for every woman who has been holding onto a promise and wondering if God forgot. He did not forget. He was just writing a better story.
There are seasons where you do not want to open your Bible, you do not want to pray, and the fire that used to burn so bright is barely embers. Alexis and Abby are talking about it because somebody needs to. In this episode they get honest about what it looks like to stay committed to God when your feelings are not following, why your emotions cannot be the foundation of your faith, and the difference between feeling distant from God and actually being distant. They also talk about what God produced in them through the hardest seasons of their lives and why the crushing is never wasted. If you are in a dry season right now and wondering if something is wrong with you, this one is for you.
