What does it actually look like to wash someone’s feet today?In this episode, Callie shares a conversation from a walk with her friend Sarah from Chi Alpha that sparked a powerful question: What is the modern-day equivalent of Jesus washing His disciples’ feet in John 13? Is it cleaning up after someone? Paying for gas? Cooking a meal? Or is it something even deeper?Together, we unpack the cultural significance of foot washing, why no one in the room wanted the job, and what it means that Jesus — the Lord of all — willingly took the position of the lowest servant. Through John 13, we discover that serving is ministry, humility is the way of Jesus, and the call of every believer is not status… but servanthood.This episode is a reminder that the Kingdom of God often looks like doing the job nobody else wants to do.Because at the end of the day, the question is simple:“How can I serve you?”

I share nine ways I keep the 90/10 balance as a woman in ministry.If your ministry can’t survive the unseen, it is not ministry... it is performance.This is your invitation to the secret place, where God does His deepest work.

God and I have two goals for 2026:1. My word of the year, (which we will talk about in our last episode of the year).2. Becoming a Proverbs 31 woman.Proverbs 31 is a common chapter preached at women, and some women have grown to resent it. There are two reasons I am focusing on this chapter in 2026. The first is because I want to be a wise and wealthy woman. The wisest and wealthiest person in the Bible writes this chapter. I have learned to only take advice from those who are where you want to be. So I am listening to King Solomon on how a Noble, God fearing woman should be. The second reason is because I want to be a wife. Many Bibles label this chapter "the wife of noble character." I think it is hypocritical to say you want something and not work for it. Therefore, I am becoming a wife of noble character long before I am a wife. Thanks for listening, friend. Listen until the end to hear a sneak peak into our first series on the podcast.
