   The Practices

   Guests: Jackie Bell & Susan JunotWhat are spiritual practices really for? In this episode, we kick off Season 3 by exploring how practices like prayer, Sabbath, worship, and service can deepen our relationship with God. The goal isn't simply to do more for God, but to learn how to be with Him.

   S2, E8: "Season Wrap Up"

   🥳 Season 2 comes to a close with reflection, honesty, and hope. In this final episode, Mia Burke and Andrea Bufkin revisit key themes from the season—community, spiritual warfare, neuroscience, attachment, pop psychology, and discipleship—while sharing personal reflections on what God has been teaching them along the way. They also explore what they didn’t have time to fully unpack, how their faith practices are shaping their lives, and what’s coming next for the podcast and community. This episode is both a reflection and a reset—inviting listeners to consider how small, intentional spiritual practices can lead to lasting transformation. And give you a preview of what’s coming in Season 3, due out in fall 2026.

   S2, E7: "Spiritual Warfare Roundtable"

   ⚔ What is spiritual warfare—and why does it matter in everyday life? In this episode, Mia Burke and Andrea Bufkin are joined by Christine Walker, Dr. Latasha Davidson, and Bonnie Schultz for a rich, grounded conversation about the reality of spiritual warfare, biblical worldview, and what it means to live aware of both the physical and spiritual realms. Together they explore Scripture, identity in Christ, authority, discernment, and how unseen realities shape our everyday experiences. From theological foundations to practical faith, this episode invites listeners to consider how we engage with truth, temptation, and spiritual formation in real life. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to “fight the good fight” in a grounded, non-fear-based way—this conversation is for you.
