My name is Mike Neelley.

After more than three years, we are back with Willow Weston, as she talks about her book, "Collide, Running Into Healing When Life Hands You Hurt." Willow shares about how Jesus met her when she was hiding in the closet with her pain and brought her out into healing. This book is a permission slip for people to name their pain and begin courageously saying Yes to letting God heal it. Join us and begin to experience the power and healing found in Jesus.

"The God of the Universe wants me alive!" This realization changed everything for my friend, Caleb Epps. Join us as he tells his amazing story of the powerful work Jesus did in him and is doing through him as he lives from a place of being desperate for God to show up.

In this episode, I share a family story of restoration. I'm not going to tell you more, so I don't give it away. But I believe God wants to restore what has been lost in families in this season. Get ready for a miracle!

The end of the year offers us the opportunity for a calendar-specific spiritual exercise of the year-end examen. The examen is a relatively simple practice, often done daily or weekly, to pause and take note of God's presence throughout the day, as well as where we missed Him. The year-end examen offers the opportunity to reflect with Jesus on 2025, and be in conversation with Him about the year to come. After we set it up, we will take time to go through the questions as they guide us in our reflection.If you would like to partner with me in making this podcast possible by giving a year-end donation, please go to www.church-withoutwalls.org and click on Donate.

It is Advent, when we celebrate the arrival of Jesus. John sees about him that "the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us." Today we explore how the tabernacle and the Temple were the place where heaven and earth met, how this is true of Jesus, and (spoiler alert) that it is true of each of us!If you'd like to support the work of Church Without Walls with a year-end donation, please go to www.church-withoutwalls.org and click on the donate link.
