   Special Episode, Sermon from Christine Caine: Joy in the Impossible & Living Between the Advents

   You were created to carry the presence of God into your world—right where you are, just as you are. In this special episode, host Christine Caine delivers a powerful Miracle Sunday message on saying “yes” to God’s assignment, overcoming fear, and stepping boldly into impossible things through the power of the Holy Spirit. Through the story of Mary, Christine challenges listeners to embrace divine purpose, trust God beyond circumstances, and live with joy in a broken world.

Find the details at ChristineCaine.com/Podcast SHOW NOTES: Living Between the Two Advents We remember Christ’s first coming while longing for His return. This is why believers can face suffering, injustice, and global brokenness with unshakeable hope. Favor Is For Service, Not Status Mary is called “highly favored”—but that favor would cost her reputation, relationships, and comfort. True favor is an invitation to participate in God’s plan, not a promise of ease. Overcoming Fear With “Even If” Faith Mary confronts the fear of the unknown, the fear of loss, and the fear of others’ opinions. Christine teaches the shift from “What if?” to “Even if.” Even if people misunderstand. Even if it costs something. Even if it stretches you beyond yourself. God is faithful. When the Calling Is Impossible on Purpose God doesn’t call us to difficult things—He calls us to impossible things that only He can fulfill. Whether like Mary (young and capable) or Elizabeth (older and barren), both required the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. Why We Need Each Other: Mary & Elizabeth Mary runs to Elizabeth, highlighting how young leaders need spiritual mothers and mature believers need the fire of the younger. Mary’s Song of Joy: Prophesying Your Future Instead of complaining about cost or difficulty, Mary breaks into prophetic praise—declaring generational blessing over her life. Christine challenges listeners to align their confession with God’s promise.

   Ep 96 with Ann Voskamp: Waking Up Your Soul in a Distracted World

   Your life isn’t meant to stagnate—it’s meant to overflow with purpose, conviction, and the life of Christ. In this episode, host Christine Caine sits down with author and spiritual formation leader Ann Voskamp for a deeply moving conversation about living “given,” guarding against spiritual drift, cultivating a heart of compassion, and staying anchored in Scripture in a distracted world. Ann shares her journey from global activism to deep soul formation—and why believers must reclaim intentional, Scripture-shaped living. If you’re hungry to grow in spiritual depth and purpose, this episode will stir your heart. SHOW NOTES: A Friendship Formed in the Unexpected Christine and Ann revisit their years at Wheaton, how two women from opposite ends of the world became spiritual sisters, and the shared passion for Jesus that bonded them instantly. Seeing the Marginalized Through God’s Eyes Ann reflects on her first global trip to Guatemala City, experiencing the heartbreak of injustice, and discovering that gratitude must overflow into activism. Christine and Ann recall their shared work with A21 and the Roma community in Bulgaria. The Call to Live “Given” A powerful discussion on becoming a conduit, not a reservoir—why gifts from God are meant to flow through us, not be hoarded. They explore how generosity keeps the soul alive and how withholding can slowly deaden the heart. Fighting Drift: One-Degree At a Time Ann unpacks the danger of slow spiritual drift and why intentionality, Scripture saturation, and Christ-centered community are essential. Christine shares how many leaders fall not by sudden rebellion but by subtle neglect. Formation for the Battle Ann describes her doctoral work in spiritual formation and soul care, reframing spiritual disciplines as “means of the Spirit,” not self-powered effort. They discuss how formation fuels mission—and why activists burn out without deep roots in Jesus. Urgency, Eternity, and the Abundant Life Now Christine and Ann discuss numbering our days, rejecting distraction culture, and embracing the abundant life Jesus offers today—not someday.

   Ep 95 with Rachel Hughes: Beyond Permission: Living Boldly in Your God-Given Authority

   You were created for influence—not by grasping for power, but by walking in the authority God already placed inside you. In this episode, host Christine Caine sits down with Anglican pastor and leader Rachel Hughes for a profound conversation on calling, spiritual warfare, women’s leadership, and learning to partner with the Holy Spirit in everyday life. Rachel shares her journey from BBC television to pastoring a thriving church, the unseen battle that keeps women small, and why embracing the supernatural is essential for spiritual formation. If you’re longing for clarity, courage, or fresh fire—this episode is for you. SHOW NOTES: From TV Sets to Church Leadership Rachel shares her surprising journey from studying film, working at the BBC, and walking away from faith—to rediscovering Jesus, marrying into ministry, and discerning a call she never expected. Calling, Marriage, and Co-Leadership How Rachel and her husband Tim learned to lead side-by-side, honor one another’s gifts, and build a church rooted in authenticity, unity, and mutual calling. Leading in the Anglican Church in 2025 A candid look at liturgy, tradition, structure, and accountability—and how Gas Street Church embraces both spiritual depth and contemporary expression. The Battle for Women’s Voices Rachel speaks directly to the internal and spiritual barriers women face, why misogyny is a spiritual strategy of the enemy, and how Scripture dismantles limiting theology. Intercession, Wailing Women & Spiritual Awakening A deeper dive into Jeremiah’s “skillful wailing women,” the prophetic moment at Empower21, and why God is calling women to a new level of intercession and authority.

Published 18 Dec 2025 · Transcript excerpt

[…] And this is why today we're getting into joy and you go, how on earth can you give a testimony about trafficking and knowing all of the pain and suffering that's going on in the world today and understanding the grief and the loss and I am not diminishing or dismissing or denying any of that. But I know that my hope is not contingent and my joy is not contingent on the things that are happening around me but Jesus is this hope I have as an anchor for my soul, both firm and secure and it's the joy of the Lord that is my strength, not the joy of my circumstances that are my strength. We're going to go in and we're going to look at a chick in the Bible because I like chicks and that has an awesome story of joy. […]
