Receiving grace starts by being in community, by belonging, and connecting. How does grace show up when producing a podcast? Take a listen for this behind-the-scenes look.

Before I launched the podcast, I knew I needed a team around me—people to pray for me and the podcast, give insight and ideas, offer suggestions for guests and questions to ask those guests, help me write a title that would appeal most to my listeners, and come alongside me to determine if a guest was in theological and doctrinal alignment with the podcast’s statement of faith. 

And the women you are about to meet rose to that challenge to love Jesus, love me, love Grace In Real Life, and love you, my sweet listener. This team has helped me with branding and graphic design decisions along with editing scripts and voting on series ideas. If you’ve loved this podcast, it’s because Amy, Angi, Eileen, Kira, Lauren, and Nina made it so good.

Together, we break down:

• What the podcast team did and how I curated this team,
• What God taught me through the podcast,
• Podcasting surprises,
• How I select guests and how I ask them to be on the show,
• How I planned content and how I handled unexpected global events, like the pandemic and social unrest,
• AND SO MUCH MORE.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like behind the scenes here and how community has shaped what the podcast is today, listen in.
