The day finally came for me to face my fears and make a dream come true by skydiving with the Army’s parachute team, The Golden Knights. Even after weeks of Wally threatening to throw me out of the plane, I was ready to go once I put the official jumpsuit on! From there, it was a smooth climb to 2.5 miles above the earth for the biggest rush I have ever experienced. Thankfully, there’s video evidence that my… … Continue reading
Brant is thankful for his autism diagnosis? He explains why in this audio clip. The answer may surprise you! Brant says, “My son is on the autism spectrum and so am I… I’m also a radio host and a writer.

The things that you enjoy are also your strengths! 2. What comes effortlessly to you? This area is easy to undervalue, because you may assume it’s easy for everyone, but it’s not! 3.

Week #3 of the “Bekah Try-It Diet” is in the books! Before I give a full report on the diet itself, I want to take a moment to be transparent about the true hardest part of this week.

For those who don’t know, this has been a large portion of our lives for the past year, and it doesn’t seem to be ending any time… … Continue reading
Mandisa has been quiet for the past few years. She’s breaking the silence and sharing questions she’s been wrestling with in her personal life. What happens when I pray for something so hard, but I end up heartbroken? When I struggle with the same mistakes over and over again, how do I get past the shame that comes with that? How God is answering those questions? Mandisa’s new song, “Unfinished,” says it all. Mandisa gets really… … Continue reading
When we heard there was an opportunity for one of us to go skydiving with the United States Parachute Team (The Golden Knights), Wally saw it as a chance to push Bekah out of an airplane. Lieutenant Colonel Kevin Polosky joined us on the show to get Bekah ready for the jump. He definitely didn’t go easy on us, but he kept us laughing the entire time! … Continue reading
