Booking Overview

This is a weekly faith-and-family interview show centered on Christian living, parenting, marriage, and everyday life, typically featuring authors, speakers, family experts, and occasional Christian entertainment personalities. Agencies could credibly pitch Christian authors, parenting and relationship specialists, educators, inspirational speakers, and relevant public figures; booking difficulty is medium because accessible expert guests are a strong fit, while higher-profile guests may require more substantial credentials or publicity value.

Episode 161: Max Lucado on Unbreakable Courage and Staying Steadfast in Hard Times

October 07, 2026

Tell me I’m not alone. Have you ever prayed for something so long that you’ve started wondering, “Are You there, God? It’s me, Cynthia.”Today we’re talking about Habakkuk and what prayer looks like when God feels silent, His answer makes no sense, or nothing seems to be changing.Habakkuk gives us three things to hold onto:Honesty.
