I'm borrowing this idea from my friend, Taylor Rester Keating, but somehow I don't think she will mind. While you're at it, pay her site a visit as well!

My church, Parkway Life Church, announced the 5 year vision of building a new worship center because we are at capacity on the one we are at now!

I believe in the gospel and Parkway Life so much that for the year 2024, every dollar spent on bread, cookies, confections, and more from my in-home bakery, Bunch 'o Bread, will
100% be given into the Grace and Truth fund to help build the building!

If you need bread, a sweet party tray, a pound cake, some confections, or my new charCookie board, please consider using me, as your dollar will go to furthering the Kingdom! Thank you all for the support thus far!

In this final episode of Brian and Jo's story, they admit the ROOT of the problem was that the marriage covenant was breached, and the FRUIT of the problem was hopelessness, unforgiveness, anger, and bitterness.

Anything in life that is precious must be guarded. Setting boundaries is for protection, not restriction.

If you are struggling with addiction of any kind, or love someone who is, reach out to Brian and Jo at Brian David Music and Josmery Music and they will point you in the right direction to start healing and getting free.

Listen to JJ Life On Purpose: Choosing joy in the story you're living on Spotify. As you listen to episode after episode, I hope you are leaving with a heart full of inspiration and a mind eager to embrace the purpose for your own life. Remember, it's not just about their stories; i's about the chan...

The culture we live in is (what Brian and Jo call) "a broken mindset" of "all guys do it" and "if you've got it, flaunt it." Desperate to be free, Brian tried everything he could think of. Jo, wanting to honor her husband, kept quiet and slowly suffocated in silence. Until they both discovered, keeping quiet was the way the enemy was winning and the first step to healing was to talk about it.
Addiction is real and needs to be addressed by the Church. Per James 5:16 "Confess your sins one to another and pray for each other so that you may be healed". There is healing in talking and shedding light on what the enemy wants to keep hidden.

Tomorrow's episode is "Parasite in Paradise (part 2), where we dissect and disinfect the dead yak. If you don't know what that means, you HAVE to listen to Parasite in Paradise (part 1).

If 50% of the population struggles with some sort of addiction, why aren't we talking about it more? Why is the Church silent for the most part about it. Sharing any struggle is hard, especially if you have kept it well hidden on the inside. You may feel, as Brian did, afraid of being rejected and judged. Baring your soul and shining the light of God into your heart is the exact opposite of what the enemy, Satan, wants. Satan wants you to keep those secrets because there is freedom in 1. acknowledging there is a problem and 2. sharing and having accountability partners to walk this valley with you. And Jo, wanting to protect her husband, kept silent about the addiction that caused her to question if God is real. And, if He was real, where was He in her hurting?
As Brian says..."addiction is straight from hell". Addiction recovery is not easy, but it IS possible. Brian is living proof. Please listen to this episode, especially if you or a loved one is bound by addiction and longs to be set free, or if you are watching a loved one fall off the wagon time and time again and you are asking why and what can you do to help.

Mentors, mentees, music, DTR, Hobbits, Sydney, and a lot of baggage. In this first episode of three, you get to meet Josmery (Jo) and Brian Mulvahill. You may remember her from Season 1. We teased that we would sit down with the both of them for a raw, inside look at their marriage. This episode touches the tip of the iceberg of what God has done in their lives. These multi-part episodes are what redemptive love looks like. Please don't miss a single word from these two. It's a story worth listening to! Follow them both across the social media platforms and don't forget to share and come back for the rest of their story...

It may not appear so, but I promise, Barbara is a sweet, close friend of mine and Jerry's. I say it may not appear so because her episode dropped TWO days ago, and I was so "busy" I forgot to promote it. I WAS busy, but that's no excuse! Barbara's episode, "Livin' life by music" was supposed to be about how she does life on purpose, but in true Barbara fashion, she forwards all the compliments off her own accomplishments and onto others. In retrospect...that IS how Barbara lives life on purpose. If you know her or if you dont, you will love her after this episode.

Listen to this episode from JJ Life On Purpose: Choosing joy in the story you're living on Spotify. When you try to talk about her accolades, she turns them around pins them on the people around her. Truly one of the sweetest, most humble person I know. Crazy funny as well. We will have to sit down....

Today's episode crossed the line....the state line that is! Join me as I sit down via Zoom with Joseph Caudill, the spectacular musician who scored the music for our film, The First Step. We talk very little about the movie, but a whole lot about worship music, his role as a pastor's kid (PK) and worship leader. Get to meet him and fall in love with his spirit the way I did.

Listen to this episode from JJ Life On Purpose: Choosing joy in the story you're living on Spotify. Even though I talked WAY too much in this episode, please listen and give me grace because what Joseph has to say is worth listening to.

We recorded 18 amazing stories from 15 different and outrageously intriguing people. The final episode of Season 1 is due to be released October 18.

Thank you to those that have been with me since the beginning and before! A great big thank you to those of you that have joined me along the way. Thank you for allowing me to grow up in your podcasting ears. Thank you for believing in me and the stories of my guests.

This may sound like a "goodbye", but far from it!! Season 2 is gearing up and we want to hit the ground running. JJLOP is looking for couples that are willing to be vulnerable and share their hearts with me and my ever-growing audience. Don't worry about if your story is "good enough". God has placed a story in all of us. It's called a testimony and it is intended to glorify Him and edify and uplift others - even if it's hard and ugly.

Message me and we will get together and make your story is told in a way that bring HIM glory and honor.

Buckle your seatbelts...we are just getting started LIVING LIFE ON PURPOSE!!!

YIKES!!!! Once again I forgot to advertise my latest podcast that aired today. I sat down with some of the women of The First Step - the movie our company produced, directed, and all the things...
I consider these women Framily - more than friends, but not blood family. Carly Laird, Josmery Mulvahill, Karina Carielo, and I sit around the table and "girl talk". Unfortunately, Krist Peveto (Just call me Kris) and Lakin Longoria were unable to join us (next time ladies!). We had so much fun, we completely lost track of time and it ends being 2 episodes of laughter, serious talk, and everything in between.
Click ⁠HERE⁠ and join us at the Jefferson Theater in Beaumont on August 26 for the Red Carpet Premiere of the long-awaited movie we were involved in. You will be so glad you did!

Today's podcast drop is one that is special to my heart. My mentor, Jenilee Samuel aka Java with Jen Podcast is my special guest. Normally her podcast centers around how to hear God's voice in your everyday life. We switched it up a little today and she is teaching us how to find OUR voice in life. I'm not gonna lie, I was a little nervous to sit down with her (she's a podcast ROCKSTAR) but we had such a good time. She is very passionate about women being heard in the Church and in ministry. I know you will be blessed to hear her story.

The episode drops at noon and I will update with the link when it airs. Until then, hop over and listen to some of the previous 7, I know you will be blessed!
