I Thought I Was Fine Until I Faced My Grief w/ Melissa Khan
What happens when you've built your identity around a life that suddenly doesn't exist anymore? After losing her husband, Melissa Khan found herself raising two children, leaning on her church community, and trying to understand who she was without the marriage that had shaped so much of her life. In Part 1 of her conversation with Chrissy Cole, Melissa shares the unexpected ways grief surfaced, why she moved away from the people she loved, and how therapy, prayer, and time with Jesus helped her face emotions she didn't even realize she was carrying.

Burnout Isn’t Always About Work w/ Scott & Karen Hagan
In this Men of Faith and Project Sisterhood crossover, Caleb and Chrissy Cole sit down with Scott and Karen Hagan to talk about more than four decades of ministry, leadership, marriage, family, burnout, resentment, community, and learning to live with an eternal perspective.
Scott and Karen unpack why serving should come from spiritual overflow instead of anxiety, how resentment can lead to isolation, and why family and healthy relationships cannot become casualties of ministry. Karen also shares what her cancer journey taught her about suffering, healing, prayer, and trusting that God is with us even when He does not answer the way we expected.
They also discuss generational leadership, calling, encouragement, prophetic words, and becoming comfortable with both who God made you to be and who He did not.
