  • Living out a Radical Love for Jesus In Mexico and the NFL | Natalie Firkser

    Living out a Radical Love for Jesus In Mexico and the NFL | Natalie Firkser
    May 20 2025
    In this episode, we catch up with our longtime friend Natalie Firsker, and wow—you’re going to be so inspired by her story. Natalie shares how a mission trip at age 12 sparked a lifelong passion for serving in Mexico, and how that radical “yes” turned into leading a nonprofit, The Aloe Family, that now spans across multiple countries. We chat about what it looks like to live a faith that’s costly, full of sacrifice, and beautifully spirit-led—even when it’s wildly different from the people around you. Plus, Natalie spills a little about life with her NFL husband and how they’re figuring out marriage, ministry, and mission all at once. It’s honest, fun, and full of practical encouragement for anyone asking: “What does it look like to radically follow Jesus right where I am?” Topics Discussed The Start of a Calling: Natalie shares how her heart for Mexico began with a mission trip and one little girl who changed everything. From Trips to Transformation: What began as a yearly visit became a lifelong mission to build bridges between cultures and create sustainable change. Life on the Move: We talk day-in-the-life in Mexico, Columbia, Nashville, and airports everywhere—and how the Spirit leads when you live out of a suitcase. The Aloe Family: Natalie breaks down what her nonprofit actually does, the programs they run, and how they stay rooted in people-first ministry. Radical Faith Looks Different: We dive into the tension of living a life that doesn’t look like everyone else’s—and why that’s actually the beauty of following Jesus. Ministry + Marriage: Natalie opens up about life with her husband Anthony, an NFL player, and how they make two different worlds beautifully overlap. Boundaries & Burnout: How she protects her peace, prioritizes rest, and keeps her soul healthy in a demanding season. What Radical Faith Really Means: We close out with a powerful reflection on what it means to say “yes” to Jesus in the big and small, the easy and the scary. Thanks To Our Sponsors!

  • How Radical Faith Led to 200 High Schoolers in Her Living Room | Courtney Slovenski

    How Radical Faith Led to 200 High Schoolers in Her Living Room | Courtney Slovenski
    May 13 2025
    In this episode, we sit down with one of Kenz's oldest and dearest friends, Courtney Slavinski — the girl who literally led her to Jesus! From swing dancing to homeschooling four kids, Courtney shares how saying a simple yes to the Holy Spirit turned into hosting 200+ high school students in her living room every week. Yep, you read that right. She and her husband Steve started Waygo Youth — a grassroots movement that’s discipling teens in radical, Spirit-filled ways right from their home. We talk motherhood, ministry, marriage, and what it really looks like to live a life fully surrendered to Jesus. Prepare to be convicted, encouraged, and fired up to live on mission — wherever God has you! Topics Discussed Courtney’s Faith Journey From knowing about God to truly knowing Him Wago Youth Begins A few girls on a couch turns into a full-blown youth movement… in her living room! Ministry & Motherhood How Courtney juggles four kids, a husband, and a house full of teenagers Discipleship in the Everyday The heart behind Waygo Ministry with Her Husband Steve’s swing dancing, zipline-building, game-leading role in the Waygo family. Pushing Back on “I’m Too Busy” What Courtney would say to moms who feel like they don’t have anything to offer beyond their family. When Obedience Feels Too Costly Real-life frustrations, spiritual warfare, and trusting God when things get hard. What Radical Faith Actually Looks Like Not a side hustle. Not just for the bold. But the only way to follow Jesus. Thanks To Our Sponsors! Cozy Earth: Elevate your style and space with their luxuriously simple designs crafted from only the best materials.
