Friendships that last aren’t built on life staying the same—they grow when we give one another the grace and space to change. In this week’s episode, Pastor Julie sits down with her longtime friend Lisa to reflect on more than 30 years of friendship through motherhood, ministry, celebration, loss, and everything in between. Together, they share the guiding principles that have helped their relationship go the distance, from staying “close but not closed” to creating a safe place for vulnerability. Whether you’re longing for deeper friendships, navigating a changing season, or wondering how to maintain the relationships you already have, this conversation offers practical wisdom and heartfelt encouragement.

In this week’s episode, Pastor Julie sits down with author, speaker, A21 founder–and one of our favorites in the So Good Sisterhood family–Christine Caine for a powerful conversation about making every day count, remaining all in with God, and flourishing in every season. As Christine reflects on turning 60, she shares why her confidence in the goodness of God has only grown stronger—and why she believes her most fruitful years may still be ahead. Whether you feel like life has passed you by, your circumstances have left you stuck, or painful years have been wasted, this conversation will remind you that God is still writing your story. Through the biblical picture of the olive tree, Christine unpacks what it means to stay rooted, resilient, and fruitful even in barren places. You’ll be encouraged to stop measuring your life by your age, platform, past, or present circumstances and trust that while there is still breath, there is always hope.

Pressure is unavoidable, but being crushed by it doesn't have to be. In Part 2 of this conversation, Pastor Julie shares a practical, biblical plan for navigating life's most stressful seasons with faith instead of fear. Looking at Jesus' example in the Garden of Gethsemane, she unpacks how positioning yourself in God's presence, praying honest prayers, and leaning on godly community can transform the way you walk through pressure. Whether you're carrying the weight of work, family, finances, relationships, or an uncertain future, this conversation will remind you that God never wastes your pressure. As you position yourself in His presence and trust Him with your purpose, you'll discover that the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead is greater than any pressure surrounding you Subscribe to Shownotes Plus (https://rock.gocf.org/page/2849) Learn More About Sisterhood (https://www.christfellowship.church/ministries/women) Keep Up with Pastor Julie (https://www.instagram.com/juliedmullins/) © 2022 Be Essential Songs (BMI) / Jord A Lil Music (BMI) / Doejones20 (BMI) (admin at EssentialMusicPublishing.com).

Pressure is something we all experience, but what if it isn’t something to fear? In this week’s episode, Pastor Julie explores how God can use the very pressures we’re asking Him to remove to prepare us for His purpose. Through personal stories, biblical encouragement, and practical wisdom, she reminds us that pressure doesn’t have to paralyze us. Instead, it can become the very thing God uses to strengthen our faith, deepen our relationship with God, and shape us into who He’s called us to be.  Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by work, family, finances, or simply the weight of everyday life, this conversation will encourage a new perspective and remind you that God never wastes a season of pressure. As you learn to see pressure through the lens of God’s purpose, you’ll discover that what feels like it’s pressing against you may actually be preparing you for what’s ahead.  Subscribe to Shownotes Plus (https://rock.gocf.org/page/2849) Learn More About Sisterhood (https://www.christfellowship.church/ministries/women) Keep Up with Pastor Julie (https://www.instagram.com/juliedmullins/) © 2022 Be Essential Songs (BMI) / Jord A Lil Music (BMI) / Doejones20 (BMI) (admin at EssentialMusicPublishing.com).

In this week’s episode, Pastor Julie sits down with Christ Fellowship Student Pastors Caroline Samuelson and Joy Lopez for an honest conversation about the pressures we all face, and how God can use them to shape us rather than break us.

Whether you're a student navigating comparison, a parent wondering if you're doing enough, or someone carrying more than you feel equipped to handle, this episode will encourage you to fix your eyes on Jesus, embrace the purpose He's given you, and remember that you are pressed, but not crushed.

In this week’s episode, Pastor Julie continues her conversation with counselor, author, and people skills expert Debra Fileta for a practical yet powerful conversation about what it really takes to build healthy relationships in today’s disconnected world.
