Welcome back to another episode of Stay True Podcast! This week, Madi sits down with bestselling author, speaker, Bible teacher, and podcast host Lisa Harper to talk about some of the most misunderstood—and often unspoken—realities of the Christian walk: church hurt, spiritual manipulation, and how to hear God’s true voice in the middle of noise, confusion, and pain. In this episode, Madi and Lisa unpack how to discern the difference between God’s leading and the enemy’s lies, how to identify unhealthy patterns in ourselves and others, and how to move from a mindset rooted in self-protection to a posture of surrender and trust in God. This is an invitation to heal, to grow, and to listen again—to the only voice that matters.

As always, make sure to stay you and stay true!

Questions/topics discussed and answered:
-How to tell the difference between conviction and manipulation
-What spiritual manipulation can look like even from trusted leaders
-What would you say to someone who is deeply wounded from church hurt?
-Rebuilding your trust in God after church hurt
-What wise, Spirit-led community actually looks like—and how to find it

Welcome back to Stay True Podcast! This week, Madi is joined by bestselling author, speaker, and missionary Katie Davis Majors for a powerful conversation about living a life of radical obedience and true significance. Katie’s story– from moving to Uganda at 18 to adopting 13 daughters and founding a ministry– has inspired millions. But in this episode, we go deeper. Madi and Katie talk about what it really looks like to say “yes” to God—even when it’s uncomfortable, inconvenient, or completely unexpected. They unpack the cost of surrender, how missions isn’t just overseas but wherever your feet are, and why trusting God with everything is worth it—every single time. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to live fully surrendered, this conversation will ignite your faith and remind you: small obedience can lead to Kingdom-sized impact.
