| 2/10/26 | ![]() When Life Slams on the Brakes | This week didn’t go according to plan.A foot of snow.Roads shut down.Driveway blocked.Guest canceled.Momentum paused.And it got us thinking…What happens when life slams on the brakes and you don’t get a vote?In this episode, we talk about forced pauses, the ones we didn’t schedule and wouldn’t have chosen. The moments when plans stall, control slips, and we’re left sitting still whether we like it or not.We unpack:Why we resist slowing downWhat stillness reveals that busyness hidesHow pauses can recalibrate what actually mattersAnd how to re-enter life differently when the road opens back upSometimes the delay isn’t a punishment.Sometimes it’s protection.Sometimes it’s preparation.If you’re feeling stuck, snowed in, delayed, or just tired of pushing, this conversation is for you.Pull up a chair.If this episode encouraged you:• Subscribe• Leave a review• Share it with someone who might need permission to slow downWe’ll see you next week, right here onThe Pulpit & Porch.#FaithInRealLife #Leadership #PersonalGrowth #ChristianPodcast #SlowingDown #PurposeInThePause | — | ||||||
| 2/3/26 | ![]() Why Not Start (w/ Dylan Shelton) | Most people don’t fail because they’re unqualified.They fail because they never start.In this episode of The Pulpit & Porch Podcast, we sit down with Dylan Shelton to talk about the courage it takes to take the first step, especially when you don’t feel ready, equipped, or certain about the outcome.We talk about:Why waiting for “perfect timing” is usually just fear in disguiseWhat actually happens when you take the first step before you feel readyThe quiet momentum that comes from obedience over confidenceWhy starting small can still change everythingThis is a front-porch conversation for anyone who’s been stuck in the almost, the someday, or the what-if. If you’ve been waiting for permission, clarity, or a sign, this might be it.So… why not start?Connect with Dylan Shelton & Mobile MinistriesInstagram: @Mobileministries1TikTok: @mobile.ministriesYouTube: @mobileministries1Connect with The Pulpit & Porch PodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/pulpitandporchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulpitandporch/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePulpitandPorchIf this conversation encouraged you, challenged you, or gave you the nudge you needed, share it with a friend and join us back on the porch next week. | — | ||||||
| 1/27/26 | ![]() So… That Wasn’t the Plan (with Brett Catrett) | This week on The Pulpit & Porch, we sit down with Brett Catrett, a business owner, husband, and dad who lives his life on mission, even when the road takes unexpected turns.What started as an RV adventure and homeschooling journey turned into a surprising calling to East Tennessee. Then came business struggles, a difficult move back to Florida, and eventually… a return to the very place God first stirred their hearts.In this conversation, Brett shares what it looks like to walk in faith when obedience doesn’t lead to easy answers, how purpose is shaped through setbacks, and why God often uses detours to deepen our trust.If you’ve ever wondered:• Did I hear God right?• What if obedience costs more than I expected?• Can purpose survive disappointment?This episode is for you.Pull up a chair, grab some sweet tea, and join us for a real, honest conversation about faith, calling, and trusting God with every chapter of your story.#ThePulpitAndPorch#FaithJourney#CallingAndPurpose#ChristianPodcast#LivingOnMission#RealFaith#FrontPorchConversations | — | ||||||
| 1/20/26 | ![]() From Event to Encounter | In Part 1, we talked about how not every moment becomes a story, but in Part 2, we go deeper.This episode is all about the truth beneath the event. The part we usually skip. The part that makes us uncomfortable. The part that actually changes us.Tony unpacks how real stories aren’t built on what happened, but on what was revealed about ourselves, our faith, and the way God shapes us through everyday moments. We talk about why some stories fall flat, how reflection gives our experiences meaning, and why Jesus taught with stories instead of explanations.If you’ve ever wondered whether your story matters…If you’ve ever rushed past the hard part to get to the lesson…If you’ve ever felt like your story wasn’t “big enough”…This conversation is for you.Pull up a chair, grab some sweet tea, and let’s talk about the story beneath the story.#ThePulpitAndPorch#FindingTheKernelOfTruth#FaithAndStories#ChristianPodcast#Storytelling#FrontPorchFaith#RealConversations#FaithInRealLife | — | ||||||
| 1/13/26 | ![]() What Happened Isn’t the Story | Most of us think the story is the event.The trip. The moment. The experience.But what if the real story isn’t what happened…It’s what it revealed?In Part One of this conversation, Robert puts Tony in the hot seat to talk about why some stories stick with us, and others fade fast. They unpack the difference between an account and a story, explore what Tony calls the “colonel of truth,” and wrestle with why meaning isn’t found in the moment itself, but in what it changes inside us.Along the way, they hit on vulnerability, reflection, faith, and why the most powerful stories usually cost the teller something. Plus, they bring back the fan-favorite Porch Picks segment with a mix of laugh-out-loud takes and “wait… that actually hit” moments.Pull up a chair.The porch is open.#ThePulpitAndPorch #FrontPorchFaith #StorytellingMatters #FaithAndLife #ChristianPodcast #TruthOrTrash #RealTalk #FaithConversations #MeaningOverMoments #PorchTalk | — | ||||||
| 1/6/26 | ![]() Before What’s Next: Looking Back with Gratitude | As the new year begins and the noise quiets, we do something that feels both rare and necessary: we pause.In this episode of The Pulpit & Porch, we take a look back with gratitude. Not a highlight reel. Not a victory lap. Just an honest reflection on what this year gave us, what it took from us, and what it taught us along the way.We talk about the moments worth celebrating, the lessons we didn’t ask for, and why gratitude isn’t about pretending everything was good, but recognizing that God was present in all of it. We also share how this season of reflection is shaping the direction of the show, the conversations ahead, and why we believe these front-porch conversations matter now more than ever.Grab a cup of coffee.Take a seat on the porch. Let’s look back with gratitude, and forward with hope.#ThePulpitAndPorch,#LookingBackWithGratitude,#EndOfYearReflection,#FaithAndLife,#ChristianPodcast,#GratitudePractice,#ReflectAndReset,#FrontPorchConversations,#FaithInEverydayLife,#HopeForTheNewYear | — | ||||||
