What Nobody Sees Behind the Stage: Strength In Weakness' 20-Year Journey
Twenty years ago, Guy Hammond started a website in his basement with no plan, no template, and one goal: help a few Christians feel less alone. This month, Strength in Weakness turns 20.
Guy Hammond and Ellen Radcliff, LMFT, sit down together for look behind the scenes at two decades of ministry in one of the most controversial spaces in the church today. They talk about the loneliness, the misunderstandings, and the criticism that comes from both sides when you stand in the “messy middle.”
In this episode:
Why Guy named the ministry Strength in Weakness, drawn from Paul’s thorn in the flesh in 2 Corinthians 12:9–10, and why the name has stayed despite pushback
What it’s really like after the lights go down: 400+ workshops and over a thousand classes worldwide, and still terrified every time he takes the stage
“Why have you changed your stance?” The answer: it hasn’t. Culture has.
Why some former supporters have turned away, from soundbite culture to a church slowly drifting from Luke 9:23’s call to take up your cross daily
Whether you’ve followed this ministry from the beginning or you’re just finding us, thank you for being part of the story. To God be the glory.

Does Same-Sex Attraction Need to Be Confessed?
A Christian parent asked: does my teenager need to confess their same-sex attraction to the people they're studying the Bible with? Ellen and Morgan tackle this question with honesty and grace — making the key distinction between temptation and sin, why sharing our struggles with safe people brings relief instead of shame, and how isolation makes temptation feel stronger while bringing it into the light sets us free.
Our goal is to offer a framework for these difficult moments. You will learn how to listen well, keep lines of communication open, and trust God with your child's long-term faith journey. Whether you are currently walking this path or want to be prepared to support someone else, this episode provides a compassionate space to process the reality of family dynamics.

How to Keep Going When You're Running on Empty
In this episode of The Strength In Weakness Podcast, Ellen and Morgan both showed up to record this episode depleted. Instead of scrapping it, they decided to do something more valuable: be honest about it. What came out of that conversation is one of the most raw and relatable episodes they've ever recorded.
They're talking about the valley seasons of life — those stretches where you're not grieving something specific, you're just exhausted by the accumulation of it all. The unexpected ER visit. The job stress. The ministry criticism. The slow drift away from what once felt exciting and meaningful. The unmet expectations that quietly hollow you out.
Ellen brings her clinical lens as an LMFT and Morgan brings her lived experience as a mom, wife, and ministry co-host — and together they unpack how we actually get into valleys, why we stay stuck in them longer than we need to, and what it looks like to stop fighting the valley and start letting God meet you in it.
They cover the "of course" technique for building self-compassion, the difference between self-soothing and actual emotional validation, what Isaiah 26:3 has to do with your racing heart, and the powerful image of a shepherd carrying a wandering sheep — and what that means for you in your hardest season.
This one is honest, warm, and genuinely helpful whether you're in a deep valley right now or just starting to feel the descent.
