Not very many people think of Deborah in the Old Testament in a complementation way, but Mindi is convinced she embodies the complementation perspective oh so beautifully. Join her for a deep dive into the narrative of Judges 4 as we behold God’s faithfulness to His Word and how He so powerfully honors women in it!Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

God calls us to testify about His goodness, faithfulness, and frankly, AMAZINGNESS in order to encourage one another and spur each other onto godliness in Jesus. That’s what this episode is about - shining a radiant light on what God has done in our lives the past few months so you can prayerfully stand more in awe of Him because of it!Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

Jacivideon is the name Mindi has given herself during this particularly challenging season of life because she resonates very closely with three men of Scripture - Jacob, David, and Gideon. We all go through seasons that are HARD - like riding a roller coaster blindfolded, leaving us no idea what's coming next. But God is just as faithful today as He was for these three men in Scripture, and we see ample evidence of it if we are diligent in looking. Listen to see if you're also a Jacivideon, or perhaps another mashup comes to mind!Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

Sometimes it seems as though God sets us up for failure. We’re living for Him, doing the right things, and then BAM. Our backs are up against a wall and we have nowhere to turn. Israel experienced this after the Exodus, except instead of a wall, their backs were against a sea with their enemies running after them. In this episode, Mindi shares a little of how God is working in her life right now - and in some ways, it seems as though God is doing things that just don’t make sense. Listen to learn how we can always trust God and lean into Him even when our circumstances are unexpected, unwelcome, and unsatisfactory. Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

Are we supposed to ask Jesus into our hearts? Is that even a biblical concept? If it isn’t, where did it come from? Does our salvation “count” if we did (or didn’t)?

Ethics are far more than just a list of do’s and don’t’s and rights and wrongs. They are a way we can worship God and bring Him glory in every aspect of our lives. In their book, Ethics as Worship, Dr. Mark Liederbach and Dr. Evan Lenow discuss not only what ethics are, but how, as Christians, we are to use them to the glory of God. In this episode, Dr. Liederbach and Dr. Lenow answer some fundamental questions about Christian ethics, previewing their book and inspiring us to think critically about what we believe and how are beliefs influence our perspectives and actions as followers of Christ. Email Dr. Liederbach: [email protected] Dr. Lenow: [email protected] Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

While the thought of going back to school makes some of us cringe, our education will never be complete. Why? Because we worship an inexhaustible God! We could spend a million lifetimes exploring the depths of His character, truth, and aspects of His creation, yet only barely scratch the surface. This conversation with Dr. Leslie Umstattd will flood your soul with those “first day of school” butterflies, and will inspire you to rethink your perspective of education in light of who God is and who He created us to be.

In many ways, IVF is the modern day “Wild West” - without ethical regulation or oversight. This has led to a host of issues, the most dire of which is the fact that over a million babies sit frozen this very minute with little to no hope of ever being born. Ezekiel and his wife stepped into the murky waters of embryo adoption to be a part of God’s redemptive work in the “Wild West” of IVF. It was an emotional and theological swamp - dredging through the muck, mire, and turmoil one step at a time. But God wrote a beautiful story in and through their experience, and in his book, Once Frozen Now Family, Ezekiel also shares the stories of others who have gone through the process. This conversation is raw, honest, and hopefully an inspiring preview into the redemptive work God is doing in this industry!Email Ezekiel: [email protected] Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

Why would anyone want to do a deep dive into the book of Obadiah? Isn’t it just an obscure little book buried within the prophets that doesn’t really have significance for today? In this episode, Sean and Mindi answer these questions and more as they begin a new Bible study together on this short, but profound book in Scripture. While this episode only covers the first handful of words (not even the entirety of verse 1!), our prayer is that God will open your eyes to the weightiness of His glory and reveal a glimpse into the glorious depths of His truth. While it may not be as popular, Obadiah is just as important as every other book in Scripture, and we can learn much about the gospel through it.

Dr. Dale Ralph Davis has mastered that skill, and has blessed the church with numerous commentaries and sermons that we not only can glean from, but use as a diving board to launch us deeper into our relationships with God. In this episode, Mindi chats with Dr. Davis about his story, how God sparked his interest in Scripture, and then provides listeners a glimpse into a passage from 1 Kings that Dr. Davis has written about extensively.

If God is good and all-powerful, then why does evil exist? Why doesn’t He just make it go away, restrain it, or prevent it?These are huge questions that almost all followers of Jesus wrestle with at some point, and it’s tough.

What is the Canon of Scripture, and why does it matter? How could knowing about how the Bible was put together possibly make any difference in my life?In this episode, Mindi answers all these questions and more as she explains our need to not only know what is in the Bible, but also about the Bible itself. After all, if we are basing our identities, worldviews, and eternal destinies on a book, shouldn't we know basic facts about it? Shouldn't we want to understand it as fully as possible to we can stand as confidently and firmly as possible upon it? Listen to learn and be encouraged in exactly that pursuit.

What does the Bible actually say about divorce? In what situations is divorce permissible? Does permissible always mean desirable? What about remarriage? In this episode, Mindi does a deep dive into the topic of divorce from a biblical perspective, answering all these questions and more.

Culture is waging war against the church on the subject of identity, and the church has been struggling to fight back because so many Christians don’t really understand it. What is identity? How does Scripture define it? What does it mean to be made in God's image? How much of a role does gender play in it? How does our identity change once we accept Christ? What is our purpose and mission in this life because of how God has made us? These are huge questions that Monica and Mindi discuss in detail. They tackle hard questions and culturally dicey topics as women who are committed to the authority of Scripture. Listen and be encouraged as you learn more about who God made you and what that means for your life and your relationship with Him!

Can God redeem anyone? Any situation? Any horrible circumstance? Any atrocious hurt? Even something outright evil? If you glean anything from Gene’s story, it will be that the answer to those questions is undeniably YES. God can and does redeem anyone and every circumstance. He can take the darkest of hurts and turn them into the brightest of rays of His glory. And has. In Christ. Gene was a career police officer and detective who saw first hand the evils of this world, beginning with his own broken family. But God kept pursuing him, and eventually burst through the door of his heart to save him and breathe new life into him. Gene’s story is wrought with pain, trials, sin, and regret, yet more powerful than all of that is the grace, mercy, and redemption he experienced in Christ. Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

Church hurt and burnout is a reality in our broken world that has gripped nearly everyone at some point in their lives. They can be disorienting, exhausting, and traumatizing, and often leave us gasping for the air of God’s comfort and constancy (if we don’t run away from Him altogether). Emily has experienced her fair share of church hurt and burnout. Yet through God’s faithfulness, has walked with Him through healing and restoration. Hers is a story of God’s grace and relentless pursuit as He first pulled her out of the domain of darkness into His glorious light, and then molded and shaped her heart more into the image of Jesus amidst intense trials in the refiner’s fire. Listen to hear an inspiring story of how God has weaved His glory in and through a life surrendered to Him.

Katie Turner is one of the most humble, genuine, kind, tenderhearted, and honest people you will ever meet. She is a talented artist, a homeschool mama of 6, a devoted wife, and a committed disciple of Christ. To be around her is to feel like you’re home, and she has touched the lives of so many people with the love of Christ (Mindi included!).Yet her life did not always look like it does today. Her journey to Christ was marked by many intense and difficult trials - childhood family drama, trauma, and secrets, paired with some really unfortunate relationship and extracurricular choices as she grew up. She tried to figure out life and purpose on her own, and failed over and over again.But God never let her go even when she wanted Him to. He kept a hold of her heart, and slowly and deliberately drew her closer to Him. Katie’s is a testimony of a life radically changed by the gospel of Jesus and the glory only He can bring to devastating and difficult circumstances. She embodies joy, and even in trials radiates the love, hope, and peace of Christ.

The church and culture are waging war on the issue of justice, especially when it comes to fairness, equity, and equality. So many opinions shaped by heightened emotions are being spewed from all sides, and it seems impossible not to get harmed in the crosshairs. What are we, as Christians, supposed to do about it? First, we're supposed to define justice as God does in Scripture, then we are to have a proper expectation and pursuit of justice in this world, and finally, are to understand Jesus--how He is justice, how He exacted justice, and then how He didn't. At least, how He hasn't...yet.  In this episode, Mindi addresses all these issues and more as she seeks to provide listeners with a biblically-based understanding of justice in order to equip them to pursue it as Christians in this life and world.

Have you ever found yourself confused by all the opinions and viewpoints floating around out there? All of them claim to know truth, the best way to live, and the secret to happiness.As Christians, we expect this from the world, but that’s not where it’s stopping…we’re seeing it in the church. Instead of standing united on the firm foundation of Scripture, we’re fractioning into countless belief systems that put US in authority- that assert OUR power in determining truth.In this episode, Mindi talks about how this has been so disastrous, and why it, frankly, defies logic. Turns out, logic and authority go hand-in-hand in Scripture. We, as Christians, need a wake up to the Bible - what it is and how we’re supposed to relate to it.

Judgment is nearly a curse word in a society bent on acceptance, affirmation, and personal truth. But do claims like, “You should never judge others” hold up in light of Scripture?

Is it good, bad, right, wrong, or somewhere in between? Listen as Mindi tackles this intense subject using Scripture as her guide.

Temptation. We all face it every day. It looks different for each of us, but it rears its ugly head more times than we’d like to admit. How can we stand against it? Is it even possible to do resist when every ounce of our flesh yearns for something so intensely? Why is it so hard? In this episode, Mindi answers these questions and more as she walks through two examples of temptation in Scripture: the temptation of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, and the temptation of Jesus by Satan in the wilderness. These examples provide us with wealth beyond measure in understanding temptation and how to resist it.

When you're in the pit of despair, healing seems impossible and hope seems like a sick joke. But what if it's not? What if healing is possible and hope is real? What if your pain has a purpose and your mess is becoming a message? What if you're a part of someone else's story of healing...and hope? And what if God is orchestrating it all to draw out of darkness and into His light? Makaela walked through what seemed to be the depths of hell. But now she embodies hope and is experiencing true life for the first time in...perhaps ever.  Getting to the other side took a lot of hard work, grit, and endurance, but as we all discover at some point, our endurance will gain us life (Luke 21:19).

It’s increasingly difficult to stand firm for Christ amidst a culture that’s decidedly anti-Christian. But there’s something harder: standing for Christ while surrounded by people who claim His name. It’s easy to feel alone. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed and want to give up. Elijah did. In fact, he even asked God to end his life on earth. But Elijah wasn’t alone, and neither are we. As long as we have breath, God has a purpose for our lives. Sometimes, that means speaking truth into a culture openly hostile to Christ. Other times, it means raising biblically-based concerns to fellow believers. It’s easy to feel alone, but we never are.

We are all closer to the brink of disaster than we’d like to think about or believe. One decision (or one more bad decision) could send us over the edge where it may very well be impossible to resume the original trajectory of our lives. Fortunately, God gives us examples in Scripture - ones to aspire to and follow, and others to avoid like the plague. King Solomon is both. He experienced the highest of highs with Israel, but then died knowing that doom was on the horizon. And that it was his fault. Join Mindi in digging into Solomon’s life a bit.

The post-election dust is settling, and many are wondering, “What’s next?” For Christians, one answer is that we need to FIGHT. We need to keep fighting for truth and resisting evil in our culture and world. We don’t have the luxury of just floating along in some want-to-be Eden-like utopia where we coast down the river of naivety and apathy as we await our entrance to the Pearly Gates. We are soldiers in a battle, and we're fighting powers of evil. The the fight hasn’t (and never) changes because of elections. In this episode, Mindi walks through what the fight is, why we need to fight, and how we are to do so—all guided by Ephesians 6:10-17. She also previews (for the very first time!) a part of her latest children’s book.

Her husband had been in an accident, and her life would never be the same. Listening to Meredith’s story in this episode will leave you encouraged, challenged, inspired, and reminded that God is writing a story in our lives that’s so much more than we could ever dream possible. If we have Christ, we have hope, and that hope will forge an unstoppable faith for those who cling to their Savior. Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

"I have to be okay with dying."Those aren't words we like to think about, but they're words Matt has had to wrestle with intimately over the last several months as he's battled cancer. Matt Furby (Mindi's father-in-law) has walked with the Lord for decades, but this diagnosis has put feet to his faith and changed his perspective. Sean (Mindi's husband) also joins the conversation to give insight into a son's perspective in dealing with unexpected trials. If you know Matt, you love him, and you'll love him even more after listening to this conversation. Even in the midst of darkness, we have the Light, and so much be thankful for. Listen to find out how God has used cancer to radically shift Matt's perspective (and the whole family's) to walk in faith, trusting God day by day.

“To get freedom, I had to fight.”In this episode, Makaela shares more of her story, specifically how it relates to the topics of confidence and freedom. Sin’s destructive fingers reach so much further than we ever imagine, and processing their reach is a difficult. But it’s also a worthwhile journey, because from it comes healing. And the best part? No matter how much the enemy means everything for evil in our lives and wreaks havoc therein, God means it for our GOOD. He can (and will) heal, restore, and bring about our good and His glory from even the deepest valleys we crawl through in life. Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

In this episode, Mindi answers all these questions and more as she delves into the intense subject of politics, but with a unique twist.

It’s also only the beginning of the conversation, and how God is using it to heal and draw others to Him.*While I strive to make all episodes appropriate for young ears, parents, please use discernment for this one.*Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby

Women in ministry…What does that look like today? Or better yet, what should it look like in an American Christian culture struggling through a civil war of gender identities and roles? How should women serve? What obstacles do women face in serving? How do we keep our priorities straight amidst the chaos that is our lives already? How do we handle time management? How can we prioritize “doing” over “being” who God wants us to be?In this episode, Mindi chats with one of her favorite people, Monica Wilkinson, who offers so much wisdom answering all of these questions and more. As a disciple of Jesus, a wife and mother of 3, and the Director of Women’s Discipleship at Cross Community Church, Monica is well-qualified to contribute to this multi-layered topic, and helps us shape it all through the lens of God’s Word. Join us for an invigorating and encouraging conversation about ministry and service as women in the Body of Christ!For more information about Monica, visit: https://www.monicalwilkinson.com/Email Mindi: [email protected]  www.KingsWynd.org www.MindiJoFurby.org Instagram and Facebook: MindiJoFurby.Author X: MindiJoFurby
