Ever feel like you've gone too far or that God might be distant? In this episode, Ash and Jacquie talk about what can’t separate you from God’s love—and the list is powerfully long. From the darkest valleys to the highest mountains, nothing in creation can break the bond we have with Jesus. Together, they unpack this comforting and unshakeable truth found in Romans 8:38–39. “For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Whether you’re in a season of doubt, fear, or celebration, this conversation reminds us that God's love is both constant and relentless.

In today’s episode, Ash and Jacquie dive deep into the story behind Mark 12:10 and talk about how easy it can be to reject God’s invitation when it doesn’t look the way we expected.

In a culture where words are thrown around casually—online, at home, even in church—how can we make sure our words reflect God’s heart?

In this episode, Ash Couchman and guest Mahala unpack Ephesians 4:29:

“Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.”

Inspired by a powerful podcast clip featuring DawnCheré Wilkerson (VOUS Church) and Holly Furtick (Elevation Church), Ash and Mahala discuss how easy it is to let cynicism, criticism, or careless words slip through—especially when we’re frustrated, tired, or trying to prove a point.

Whether it’s with your friends, family, co-workers, or online audience, your words carry weight. This conversation is both a challenge and an encouragement: to speak less like the world, and more like Jesus.

✨ Let this be a reminder—your words can either build up or break down. Let’s choose life.
