About this episode

Shelley Giglio and Brooke Ligertwood discuss anointing, obedience, and the importance of remaining rooted in Jesus.

In episode one of our Summer Recap Series, Shelley Giglio welcomes returning guest Brooke Ligertwood for a rich conversation centered on anointing, obedience, and remaining rooted in Jesus. Brooke shares her perspective on anointing as both a sacred invitation and a stewardship, explaining how being marked by God changes the way we live, think, and respond to Him. Together, they discuss the imagery of “good trees” from Scripture and reflect on how fruitfulness comes not through striving, but through remaining planted and nourished by God. Brooke opens up about discovering songwriting as a child, how creativity became a pathway that ultimately led her to Jesus, and how she has navigated both worship ministry and mainstream music with a heart fixed on redemptive purpose. The conversation explores the tension between comfort and obedience, the daily choice to stay surrendered, and the courage required to continue following Jesus wholeheartedly in every season.
