As we prepare to enter 2026, we take some moments to look back and to look forward.

The holiday rush can easily leave hurting hearts weary, tempted to isolate and wishing the season would end. In this episode, we talk through the promises of Isaiah 35 and encourage our own weary hearts, and yours, that Christmas is for the weary.

We share some of our Christmas favorites: memories, traditions, music and what God is speaking to our hearts this Christmas season.

As we enter the Christmas season, we recount some of the ways we've seen God's faithfulness this year.

In our 5th episode of the season centered on advent, we take some time to talk about the distinct advent themes of hope, love, joy and faith and how they are pronounced at Christmas.

Wayfarers, this brief episode is our prayer for you. May Jesus come close to you as you celebrate His first advent at Christmas and may His hope flood your heart as you look forward to the glorious day that He comes again! Oh, come Lord Jesus!

In this unique episode, Ben and Crystal center their conversation on John 1 as Ben shares thoughts from a sermon he preached a few years ago celebrating that the Light has come!

In episode 4, Ben & Crystal share how they see hope, love, joy and peace pronounced in the Christmas Story and how Jesus' first advent fuels our faith as we wait for His second advent!
