    Revivals, Prayer Meetings, and Making Disciples with Jon Tyson- Episode 973
    Apr 7 2025
    Today on the show, we’re answering the question, “How do we identify when spring is here?” with Pastor Jon Tyson. Jon is the pastor of Church of the City in New York and a best selling author. We’re going to talk about identifying spring, revival and resurrection, and what role we play in all of it. This is also our last episode before Holy Week and Easter, since we don’t release episodes during Holy Week, so we also talk about ways to enter into this next week as we finish Lent and celebrate the resurrection. And if you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 45. As always, if you still want to get a Guidebook and join us, you can find it at anniefdowns.com/seasons. As you know, we don’t release shows during Holy Week, but we do have an entire Holy Week playlist that you can go back and listen to where I read the Scripture from each day of that week leading up to Easter. . . . . .

  • Navigating Transitions, Laying Aside Every Weight, and Finding Peace in the Present with Levi Lusko- Episode 972

    Navigating Transitions, Laying Aside Every Weight, and Finding Peace in the Present with Levi Lusko- Episode 972
    Mar 31 2025
    Today we’re answering the question, “How do I transition seasons?” with Pastor Levi Lusko. Spring is here, and with the changing of seasons can come all sorts of transitions—whether it’s physically happening around us, or in our hearts, our work, or our relationships. Levi is such a wise voice in this and, especially, can speak to the realities of the big impact of it all with the release of his new book, Blessed Are the Spiraling, which comes out tomorrow. If you’re following along and taking notes in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 43, and if you don’t have a copy but would like one, you can find that at anniefdowns.com/seasons . . . . .

  • Healing from Generational Trauma and Mean Girls with Melanie Shankle- Episode 971

    Healing from Generational Trauma and Mean Girls with Melanie Shankle- Episode 971
    Mar 27 2025
    Today Melanie Shankle is here to help us answer the question, “What do I do when spring still feels like winter?” Melanie’s always making us laugh on The Big Boo Cast, telling us which jeans to wear on the internet, and writing brilliant books and her latest is just incredible. It’s called Here Be Dragons: Treading the Deep Waters of Motherhood, Mean Girls, and Generational Trauma and it’s Melanie’s honest and deeply personal story of trusting God to heal generational wounds so she can be a strong presence for her daughter. I know she’s not the only one with this kind of story and like many of us has found herself at times in a winter season when everyone else is in spring and we’re going to talk about how to navigate that. I think you’re really going to love this conversation. If you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we're on page 42. If you don’t have a guidebook yet, head to anniefdowns.com/seasons to purchase yours so you can hop in with us for the spring. You’ll get emailed the winter and spring pages as soon as you buy. . . . . . Find the show notes here Want to watch this episode on YouTube?

The BEST

AFD is, hands down, without a doubt or reservation, the BEST podcast host. She is excellent at her craft. I judge all other podcasts by hers. It is so well thought out, performed, and produced. She is honest, down to earth, and relatable. Some of the content is informative and educational and some is fun and often hysterical! I’ve read more books because of the guests she has on. I have grown as a person and am a better person because of this podcast. No exaggeration!
