Debra Fileta

Shelene and Barbara share about their recent surprise visit to Hope Haven Rwanda. They share about the people they met and miracles they saw.

Step aside Carrie Underwood, you have a new gal on your heels. This week’s guest is not only a lover of the Lord, but also a guitar-toting, Dolly Parton-loving country singer here to share her current projects with us and how she found her career in country music.  

What happens when you’re cast as one of the actors in the film adaptation of one of your favorite childhood books? What happens when those books also just happen to be written by your mother? The pressure is on for this week’s guest, Austin Russell, as he discusses navigating a career shift from sports to entertainment, the responsibility of doing justice to a beloved character, and the life and sacrifices of following your faith and your passion.  

Can anything beautiful come from devastation? This week’s guest, Beth Shuey McGuire, says yes! As a matter of fact, she wrote a book on the subject and she’s here this week to share with us. Aptly titled Beautiful Ashes, Beth’s book chronicles her brave story of rising from the ashes of a very high-profile divorce and the restoration of her relationship with the Lord, who gave her the strength to move on better than ever.  

Join Shelene & Barbara this week in the Splash zone for some love, a lot of laughter and a little prison break. Shelene shares her experience of going to prison and the ladies talk about abiding in God from wherever you are. Episode 94 drops this Sunday. Come SPLASH with us.

Would you say “I Do,” again? This week’s guest, Cheryl Scruggs, did that and then some. Cheryl and her husband divorced years ago, only to be brought back together by God, who restored their union and led them back down the aisle. Today, Cheryl, along with her husband, Jeff, founded Hope Matters Marriage Ministries, an outreach dedicated to sharing God’s heart for marriage and relationships and travel the country as public speakers.

Jinger Vuolo (aka Duggar) grew up on television in front of all of us as one of 19 of the Duggar family members. She’s with us this week to discuss her new book, Becoming Free Indeed: My Story of Disentangling Faith from Fear, how she’s been healing and what she’s up to now. Join us to hear her harrowing story.

While December is typically regarded as “the most wonderful time of the year,” it can also be “the most difficult time of year” for many.

Step into the splash zone and listen to Dr. Blackmon as he shares some of his favorite tools, pieces of advice and words of encouragement for those who need a little extra this holiday season and beyond.
