You know what it's like to face difficulty. You have before and you will again. You may be, right now, facing a challenge so great that a solution feels impossible. If that sounds familiar, I encourage you to follow the example of Joshua - before you go into battle, call on your Commander.
Today's episode brings us to a familiar story in the Bible. Maybe you've sung the old song about Joshua fighting the battle of Jericho. But this story is about more than the Hebrews defeating the Canaanites. This is a story about fighting from a place of victory to defeat the strongholds in your life.
What if the only thing standing between you and God's promises is your perspective? In this episode, Christine Caine explores Numbers 13 and the story of the twelve spies, revealing why only two entered the Promised Land and how you can cultivate the same courageous faith. You'll be strengthened to silence doubt, see through the eyes of faith, and step boldly into everything God has already said is yours.
✨ You'll learn:
* Why 12 people can experience the same journey but live with completely different perspectives.
* How fear, comparison, and negative voices keep us from God's promises.
* What it looks like to develop a Caleb-spirit and live like the 16.6%.

Hello, friend. I hope you're doing well. This week we celebrate Thanksgiving, so I think today's episode is especially fitting.
In Joshua 4, just as many of us will do this week with family and friends, Joshua and the Hebrew people were instructed to pause and remember all God had done for them. And that act of gratitude prepared them for what came next.
You were created for influence-not by grasping for power, but by walking in the authority God already placed inside you. In this episode, host Christine Caine sits down with Anglican pastor and leader Rachel Hughes for a profound conversation on calling, spiritual warfare, women's leadership, and learning to partner with the Holy Spirit in everyday life. Rachel shares her journey from BBC television to pastoring a thriving church, the unseen battle that keeps women small, and why embracing the supernatural is essential for spiritual formation. If you're longing for clarity, courage, or fresh fire-this episode is for you.
SHOW NOTES:
From TV Sets to Church Leadership
Rachel shares her surprising journey from studying film, working at the BBC, and walking away from faith-to rediscovering Jesus, marrying into ministry, and discerning a call she never expected.
Calling, Marriage, and Co-Leadership
How Rachel and her husband Tim learned to lead side-by-side, honor one another's gifts, and build a church rooted in authenticity, unity, and mutual calling.
Leading in the Anglican Church in 2025
A candid look at liturgy, tradition, structure, and accountability-and how Gas Street Church embraces both spiritual depth and contemporary expression.
The Battle for Women's Voices
Rachel speaks directly to the internal and spiritual barriers women face, why misogyny is a spiritual strategy of the enemy, and how Scripture dismantles limiting theology.
Intercession, Wailing Women & Spiritual Awakening
A deeper dive into Jeremiah's "skillful wailing women," the prophetic moment at Empower21, and why God is calling women to a new level of intercession and authority.

Today on the Back Porch, we're trading ham for turkey, dressing for stuffing debates, and canned jelly for fresh cranberries as we talk all things Thanksgiving ~ and the deeper gratitude that outlasts the leftovers. We'll name some hard seasons and the surprising ways God's goodness has met us there, reminding us that gratitude isn't denial ~ it's defiant hope. Take a breather from the Thanksgiving prep, pull up a chair, and join us as we count kernels of kindness from a faithful God.
