  • Summary

  • The Commons is a podcast from The Salvation Army's Caring Magazine for women who want to talk about relevant and relatable topics—from mental health to marriage, and even what the Bible says about equity. Co-hosted by Meagan Ruff and Cassandra Amezquita, two women who are both officers (or pastors) in The Salvation Army, moms and Jesus followers with full hands and full hearts. Like the Commons was the go-to hangout at the officer training college, join in this Commons community to find a safe space to get into what matters, grow in your faith, and—from time to time—laugh about something ridiculous. Whatever stage of life you're in, welcome to the Commons.

    17: Grieving the ‘what ifs’ through miscarriage with Chelcee Humphrey
    Oct 27 2021

    “The doctor told me that I was the only thing keeping the baby alive,” Chelcee said. “It was very, very sad.” 

    And it was just the first of three miscarriages Lt. Chelcee Humphrey and her husband would endure over two years. 

    It’s not an easy topic, but Chelcee joins the show to talk about grief, how important it is to normalize grief and why she still has hope. 

    This episode is in honor of all of the women who have lost a pregnancy or infant—our hearts are with you always.

    16: How to raise your voice even when it’s tough
    Oct 20 2021

    Recorded live at The Salvation Army California South Women's Rally, "Raise A Hallelujah," hosts Cassandra and Meagan look back on the past year and reflect on their inspiration for starting The Commons Podcast.

    They call on more Christian men and women to gather the courage to tell the “hard” stories in order to inspire others by their example.

    In sharing our toughest moments, they say, we praise God: We surrender to him, allowing him to speak through us; and he gives us the wisdom and grace to tell the stories that matter.
