Have you ever watched someone approach the end of their life and thought, I want that? Not the dying part, but the confidence. The peace. The sense that they lived life well and they knew it. In this final episode of the season, Candace and Francis Chan get honest about what it takes to make it to the end — and what it costs to walk away. Francis opens with something he does not say lightly. He tells Candace he is proud of her. Not in a way that comes from someone distant, but from someone who has watched her life up close for decades and seen a woman who kept choosing the same thing over and over again. She kept choosing God. And he encourages her — with the warmth of someone who has buried friends and sat with people on their deathbeds — to keep going. The enemy is crafty. The people who fall away are not strangers. They are people who were there. And yet there is a reason Peter said, "Where else would we go?" They talk about heaven, about what the fullness of God actually feels like, and about a man named Alan who is dying as they record the episode. Francis asked if he could FaceTime Alan into a chapel of 1,000 students — and Alan said yes. Watch the episode to catch the whole conversation!

This week we're discussing What's Holding You Back and How It's Affecting Your Kids. Growth doesn't always announce itself as something you're missing. Sometimes you're functioning, even thriving in some areas, and still carrying patterns that are quietly working against you. Denial, shame spiraling, overcompensating, running to busyness or numbing out. You don't have to be falling apart to need this. You just have to be human. And the way you're handling the hard things right now is already shaping the way your kids will learn to handle theirs. Robert Beeson, Founder and CEO of Solo Parent, and Elizabeth Cole, single parent and co-host, sit down with Amber Fuller, a counselor with a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy and a single parent herself, to name the patterns that quietly keep solo parents from growing. Amber brings both clinical insight and lived experience, speaking not just as a therapist but as someone who has navigated the same hard terrain. Together they get honest about the traps, and the part nobody talks about enough: how those patterns find their way into our kids. Key Insights from This Episode Naming the trap is the most courageous first step. Whether it shows up as denial, shame spiraling, or overcompensating, you cannot grow through something you are not willing to honestly look at. Staying in the river is a learnable skill. Sitting with hard emotions rather than escaping to busyness or apathy is not something you either have or don't; it is something you practice, and it gets easier. Your growth is already teaching your kids something. More is caught than taught, and when you do the work of facing your own struggles honestly, that becomes one of the most powerful things you can model.

Jase, Al, and Zach tackle the growing tension around global conflict by walking through current events and the questions many are asking about Israel, Iran, and biblical prophecy. The guys draw an important distinction between letting faith inform your worldview and using ancient scripture to justify modern warfare without proper context. They explore what the Bible actually says about God’s promises, the identity of Israel, and how those promises are fulfilled. The guys remind listeners that no political leader is the Messiah and that the real power of God is found in the Gospel.  In this episode: Deuteronomy 6, verse 4; Genesis 25, verse 23; Matthew 24, verses 6–7; Luke 23, verse 43; John 21, verse 12; Romans 1, verses 1–5; Romans 9, verses 1–8; Romans 9, verses 30–33; Romans 11, verses 25–29; Romans 15, verses 4–12; 1 Corinthians 3, verses 16–17; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 35–44; 2 Corinthians 1, verse 20; Hebrews 7, verses 11–12 “Unashamed” Episode 1323 is sponsored by: Get 15% off OneSkin with the code UNASHAMED at https://www.oneskin.co/unashamed #oneskinpod https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

Allie sits down with Camille Varone, senior counsel at the Department of Justice, to discuss the explosive new revelations from a report by the DOJ Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias. The report exposes how the Biden administration systematically targeted Christians through an overbroad reading of Bostock, weaponization of the FACE Act against pro-lifers, FBI scrutiny of traditional Catholics, and pressure on schools, medical professionals, and faith-based organizations to conform to progressive gender ideology or lose funding. From career bureaucrats pushing “gender-affirming care” with minimal religious exemptions to coordination with abortion NGOs to prosecute pro-life advocates, this conversation reveals deep ideological capture within the federal bureaucracy — and what it means for religious liberty moving forward. Allie and Camille also address the report’s rare acknowledgment of Christian thought’s foundational role in American history, including a direct citation of Allie’s book “You Are Not Enough (and That’s Okay).” Task Force Report on Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias and Restoring Religious Liberty: https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/task-force-publishes-report-eradicating-anti-christian-bias-and-restoring-religious-liberty Share the Arrows 2026 is on October 10 in Dallas, Texas!

Have you ever felt such overwhelming joy that it surprised you? This week, Candace and Francis Chan talk about what it really looks and feels like to give from overflow, not obligation, and why the difference between those two starting places changes everything. Francis brings personal stories from Uganda, Ethiopia, and a village in Burma. He talks about watching women who had lived in the worst conditions imaginable graduate in caps and gowns, jumping for joy, and what it did to him to be a small part of that. He is honest about the tension too: about the times he has served from insecurity rather than fullness, and about what it means to feel pain deeply while also knowing genuine joy. Listener Cammie asks a real question: what do you do when you want to pursue God but can't find the motivation? Francis and Candace answer with something honest and practical, and a little convicting. What else is here? Some thoughts on fasting from Candace….and yes, Francis wants a role in a Christmas movie!

This week we're discussing From Panic to Plan: Thriving as a Solo Parent on a Budget. For a lot of solo parents, the finances were never really theirs to begin with. Someone else handled it, and then one day that changed completely. No transition, no training, no runway. Just a pile of bills, a household to run, and children depending on every decision you make. Robert Beeson, Founder and CEO of Solo Parent, and Elizabeth Cole, single parent, sit down with Shirley Baldiris, a single mom, Solo Parent community member, and emerging financial coach trained through Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University. Shirley woke up one morning facing four months of back rent, a home in foreclosure, and debt she didn't know existed. What she built from that starting point, and how she built it, is what this conversation is about. Most financial advice was not designed for the single income, single parent reality. Shirley's approach was. And the practical steps she shares are ones solo parents can actually use. Key Insights from This Episode: Start with your four walls, not your full financial picture. When everything feels urgent, protecting your roof, food, transportation, and utilities first gives you a foundation to build from. Budgeting in small, honest increments builds more than a plan. Starting week by week instead of month by month creates the consistency and self-trust that makes financial stability possible over time. Negotiating with lenders is a skill, and it works more often than you think. Being honest about your situation with landlords, credit card companies, and mortgage lenders can open doors that most solo parents never think to knock on. Shirley closed by saying what every solo parent in a financial crisis needs to hear: you have the intelligence, you have the stamina, and you are absolutely qualified to take hold of this. The panic is not the whole story.
