You may know him best from his hit single "Reckless Love," but today, Cory Asbury reveals it all. 

Cory grew up in church and even started playing in the worship band at 14, but it wasn't until his parents pushed him to attend IHOP KC that he fully surrendered his life to the Lord. 

Today, Cory opens up about how his experience with IHOP KC shaped him. Reveals how being on a platform impacted his marriage. And how he hopes to respond to people who've fallen off the stage (even sharing an experience he had with Carl Lentz recently).

Have you followed the Lord's direction and felt alone?

Rita didn't expect to raise a child by herself. She thought the Lord would provide a partner to begin a family with. But that didn't happen, and when she stood in the hospital and looked down at her baby boy for the first time, she felt the weight of being a single mother.

How was she going to take care of this baby all alone? How would she teach him what it means to be a man without a father in their home?

In this episode of Worship Is My Weapon, Rita continues her adoption story and shares who she turned to for strength when she felt alone raising her child.

The interview ultimately seeks to answer the question: How should the church, comprised of both Jews and Gentiles, respond to the Israel-Hamas conflict? What attitude and disposition should they adopt?
Join Rita Springer and Scott Volk for an insightful and faith-based discussion on these pressing issues. Discover the biblical insights that can guide Christians in understanding and responding to the complex dynamics in the region.

Before I leave you, let me ask you one more time to find it in your heart to begin supporting a child through Compassion, today. It takes so little to change a child's future forever. Found out how by clicking here!

Josh Baldwin may lead worship, write incredible songs, and have the voice of an angel, but he’s also one of my favorite drummers I’ve ever had. Josh and I have a great deal of life and ministry history together. He’s a solid one I’ve watched and am incredibly proud to know and call, friend. He’s hilarious, a deep well, gifted, thoroughly kind and humble with an ease that’s contagious. 

If you’re a musician, singer, worship leader, creative, or merely someone left of center— you’re going to love this guy and our conversation. What happens when God asks you what you really want and you give him an unfiltered response? Well, I’ll tell you, some powerful and cool things. Listen in and find out for yourself. 

Also, we’re still partnering with Compassion to help end poverty for present and future generations, one commitment at a time. Would you find it in your heart to partner with what God’s doing what you can do, today? Click here.

What a privilege to have Daniella Mason for a second episode. I felt our conversation was important enough to carry on into a part two and I know you will too. The roar of death is mighty and shaking, especially when it comes from the mouth of someone who's walking out, "To God Be The Glory," regardless of the loss on many sides. This conversation is real, unbridled by posturing, and just full of Jesus and the peace He breathes.

Daniella's countenance is aware, determined, and unflinching as she pursues what God has put on her life. She's going to inspire you. She inspires me.

We're still partnering with Compassion to help end poverty in the lives of as many children as possible. It would mean the world to me if you would find a child to sponsor today-- let's be the hands and feet of Jesus together. Simply click HERE.

Talking to Daniella Mason is like opening a fire-hydrant of testimony. She doesn’t drown you in story or processing, but she does flood you with an undeniable perspective that has been touched by the miraculous hand of God. She loves the Lord fiercely and wields creative excellence in every sphere she touches. 

Her walk and the belief shaped in her through harsh environments, is something we can all learn and glean from. She’s seen enough and she can’t come back from the undeniable truth of who Jesus is. Listen to her music. Listen to her share. She’s a deep well of wisdom and I’m excited to share this conversation with you. 

I’m still so glad to be partnering with Compassion and I would be so honored if you’d join me. This is about ending cycles of poverty and being the hands and feet of Jesus. Please click here and see how you can be the change in someone else’s forever, today.

What a joy to have Patrick Mayberry on with me this week! I love this guy and his pastor’s heart. I so relate to his journey and I know you will too. What God has refined in his heart is an invitation for each of us. Will we let the Holy Spirit affirm and permission us to be fully alive in our calling, free from expectations and what we think it “should” look like? 

So much great ground covered here, but it’s all about believing the bigness of God and aligning our faith with who He is. Scarcity is not God’s option for us, it never has been. Regardless of the type of creativity in you, there’s encouragement and fresh oxygen in this conversation to breathe in.

I’m still so thankful to be partnering with Compassion. They’re truly being the hands and feet of Jesus and meeting poverty head on. If you’d like to change a child’s life forever, starting today, simply click here!

I thought we would do something a little different today. I'd like to just invite you into where I am right now. I'm in the middle of sending my son to college, navigating some life changes, and in a new writing season altogether. So let's think of this as a catch up. This is really an episode for every creative who has felt led to produce or create something God has asked them to  ... and for those same ones who know that it doesn't always look like we think it will. 

Pioneering doesn't always look like financial or commercial success. Obedience doesn't always mean arriving to the destination we think. So today we're talking about what life looks now as a songwriter, as a worshiper and artist, and what I've got in my heart to do. I hope this meets you where you are and breathes some more courage into your sails. 

If you haven't had the opportunity to choose a child whose life you could make a difference in today, I urge you to click here. 

As always, catch up with me on Instagram here!

Today, join me as we chat with a Jesus-loving producer who beautifully talks about process and how pastoring can look in a different seat. I’m so grateful to have Michael Howell on as we delve into the unlimited nature of God and how we can see it in our creativity. When surrendered talent, humility, and truth come together amazing things can happen.

“If it’s authentic and it’s truth, it can be revolutionary.”

With graduation season upon us and summer in full swing, change is inevitable ... and it feels particularly personal this year. So I wanted to take this episode as an opportunity to talk about letting go. Why? Because that's what the Lord and I have been talking about and I wanted to invite you to our conversation.

Change itself is an invitation and one the Lord extends to us often. So what do we do with it? Currently, I find myself in a place where I'm unwinding and recapturing my identity as it sits with the present, as opposed to what's been or what could be. God's meeting me with unflinching kindness and giving me understanding to navigate waters I've not tread before. So care to hop in with me?

It’s so easy to let the weightiness of life affect what should be second nature to us. Having a great day and someone asks you for a dollar? That’s easy enough. Having a bad day on the heels of a bad week and someone asks you for the same dollar? You might not find yourself at the same answer as easily. But the truth?

Generosity, and the compassion that empowers it, are at the center point of who we’re called to be as believers, who God is, and what He’s called us to extend of ourselves. Each opportunity to be generous, especially when it costs us, is invitation straight from Heaven to know more of Him and His heart. I’m going deep today and I invite you to join me!

I am so honored to partner with Compassion and the great work they’re doing. I would love for you to join me. Simply click here to start being the change in someone else’s life, today.

How do we choose forgiveness when all we’re craving is vindication? How do we extend mercy to those we’ve been crushed by, those we’ve trusted most in leadership? If ever there was a time for this conversation, friends, it’s now. 

Now, get excited. You’re in for more tidbits, wisdom, stories, and laughs than normal because I have some true worship-leading, people-loving, powerhouses on with me today. I’m so excited to have Anna Golden, Hannah Hobbs, and Abbie Gamboa here. The Holy Spirit showed up in such a cool way throughout this conversation, like He loves to, and I’m excited to hear how He ministers to you through it.

I’m so excited to introduce you to my new friend, Jey. He’s from Kenya, a DJ, a true creative, a father. Our conversation today is one I don’t want you to miss.  

So many of us have never known true hunger … have never been made to beg or steal as a child in order to survive and been arrested and jailed as a result— But Jey has. God met him many years ago out of His goodness and through an integral organization, Compassion.

Listen to his story, but more so, listen to how God can radically meet us through each other. 

I’m so honored to partner with Compassion and their efforts. I’m truly expectant for how God is going to use each of us. Please, I urge you, to visit this page and see how you can be the difference in someone else’s forever, TODAY.

The Lord's quite wonderful at restoring what was once taken, and doing so in a way only He can. This week, my sister Roxanne is finishing her story and I don't want to give anything away. I just want you to know that regardless of what you're facing now, despite how life and the enemy may be coming against you and your peace right now, God is willing to meet you at every point in every step along the way.

Roxanne has clung to Jesus where so many would easily walk away in heartache. What He's shown her and our family, the peace He's led her with and to, the faith He's honored in her miraculously ... it's awe-inspiring. HE is awe-inspiring, faithful, and truly everything we need and everything we could ever hope to lean on.

My sister is a beautiful woman through and through and I love her very much. I want to be upfront and tell you, you might need a tissue or two for this episode. It's not because it's sad, it's because you can feel the Lord's kindness so tangibly when she tells her story. My sister has known the Lord to be Father, Husband, Provider, and Friend and the way she talks about their relationship? It's simply quite stunning to hear.

I know this conversation is going to build your spirit and faith in some way and I look forward to hearing the stories that come from this powerful testimony. This is part one and we'll be back next week for part two.

Heartbreak and cynicism can be an easy invitation for anyone battling their relationship with the Church. This isn’t new, but it seems to be where the enemy is focusing as of late. That’s why God’s been preparing trustworthy hearts, like Anna Golden, to speak to the purity and power of what God’s given us in serving His bride, the Church. 

This convo has the Holy Spirit coursing throughout and it will leave you challenged to love the one, the ones, and the Church altogether … I love what Anna says toward the end. With a glisten, some hope, and sureness in her eyes— “I see rolling hills for the Church.” I do too, Anna.

Mentoring gets a bad rep and honestly? That’s fair. Depending on your experience, that term might feel like control to you. If you’ve had wonderful mentors you might think it the most integral part of your growth. So today, we’re having a conversation about mentoring, the mercy of God, and how to walk well with others.

My guest today is the wonderfully gifted, Dara Maclean. I love her anointing and ability as a worship leader and artist, but I love her passion for mentoring even more. It matters who we’re led by and who, we ourselves, lead. But the bottom line? We need to be poured into and we need to pour into others — in health.

The beauty of being planted and remaining is not lost on Hannah Hobbs. This is just one of the many things I adore about this worshipper. Although Hannah’s anointing, gifting, and call are stunning to see; they pale in comparison to her faithfulness. 

Hannah has served as a worship pastor at Hillsong Church for years and remains one of the purest hearted writers and leaders I know. I’m honored to have this heart-to-heart with her and to see Jesus’ shine in her. She’s a breeze of authenticity and genuineness we could all use.

I love the local church and those who serve in and steward their call to it. Andrew Holt is that beautifully surrendered sort of leader I love to see come along. He worships stunningly, writes wonderfully, and pastors with his whole heart. He allows his relationship with Jesus to genuinely lead every other area of his life, creative gifts included; a rare thing indeed.

If you serve in the Church, this is for you. If you’re a songwriter or creative, this is definitely for you. If you’re someone who simply needs to be inspired by the purity of another’s walk, you’re going to love this chat with Andrew.

An intimate relationship with the Lord doesn't happen on the other side of a seminary degree or working in ministry for a decade. That sort of beautiful relationship develops and deepens as we continually surrender and exchange our plans, hopes, dreams, and talents for the ones He's asked us to use that day. Although that invitation from the Lord isn't often the easiest to accept, its envelope comes gold-dusted. 

Anna Asbury is one of the most beautifully creative, talented, anointed, and surrendered people you'll meet. I'm so excited to have her on with me today. What the Lord has shown and given her through her own refining, story, and creative journey is nothing short of powerful. I know this episode and conversation are going to bless and challenge you. We often talk about what God asks from us in surrender. Today, we're talking about what He GIVES. 

If you have a second, pop up top and leave our show a review and five of those stars! ;)

I hope this series has been encouraging to you, whether you’re a songwriter, burgeoning creative, or simply someone hungry for more of God. As we round the corner of this specific conversation, I’m sharing a bit about about my experience writing for film. Why? Because God often calls us to steward new lanes of creativity and when we refuse to bring compromise along with us, He moves powerfully.

God wants to do new things and He wants to partner with us and our creativity. How incredible is that? When we burn for the Lord and operate from that burn in our creativity, we can do so brightly wherever He’s called us to put our pen or abilities.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled Songwriting Series for a powerful and timely conversation. Let’s talk revival. God clearly wants to, so I do too.

I had to call Lindy Cofer in for this one. I’ve seen what God can do when He moves, but how do we quantify His move when it comes to revival? Where do we look for it? How do we see revival right where we are? 

You don’t want to miss this one. Back to songwriting next week!

Hooks, structure, patterns, and walls - so many components go into building out a great home, a wonderful song. Today, we're talking through some real technical parts of writing, I'll show you one of my favorite songs and talk through it. My hope is to encourage you to dig even deeper in your creative expressions. It's not just about songs though, don't you worry non-songwriters. 

Whatever we put into the world, whether in a song or even in the words we speak, is our point of view consistent? If you're writing worship songs, are you inspiring people or are you being too preachy? Subtlety in our communication, leaning on the Holy Spirit, clearing our agenda and making room for His, all of these things set us up to write, sing, and live out our best songs. 

We're asking some good questions and covering a lot of ground today!

This week, we’re continuing our series on songwriting and if you’re someone who writes or wants to write worship music, this is especially for you. I love writing for the Church, but I love the craft of writing period. So today we’re talking about the prayer and process involved in writing worship songs that feel like a safe house.

When we write without a foundation, without structure needed to support what we’re saying, we leak out all of what we think, without really ever having an understanding of the format of what it is we’re thinking … We create a faulty building.

Remember, you’re writing songs that move your people from the place that they are when they came into the building further to the lap of the Lord. So I’d like to spend some time today speaking frankly about foundation, finding lyrics, themes, and communicating what’s on God’s heart with artistic and structural integrity. 

If you haven’t subscribed + rated our show yet, would you mind taking a second to do that up top? It truly helps the show!

What do you want to put into the atmosphere? As songwriters, as sons and daughters, we have to steward what we impart. 

In today’s episode we’re talking everything from process, navigating writing rooms, the creative influences we take in, and in the middle of all that- what we are called to create.

Where has God gifted you to run, what strengths do you have creatively to flex and operate in consistently? God’s got a lane for each of us and there’s far more room in it than out of it.

Willing to join me on the journey?

Pastor Laura Lee is someone who knows the power of choice intimately. How we choose to live, serve, love, and faithful.- they matter. There’s nothing easy about giving God your full “yes,” but when you do He builds in you the strength you to walk your “yes” out even when the choice is hard. Laura is proof.

She’s been in ministry for decades, has walked with countless people beautifully, and has laid her life down for the cause of Christ … but that hasn’t kept the rain of heartbreak from falling. Her choice is ours, will we allow the lowest points in our life to leave us bitter or will we walk with God to better? 

Listen in on this tender and important conversation. I pray it encourages you!

God’s the one who has the best and better way. He just does, and it doesn’t matter what we’re in the middle of or trying to understand, He shows up to partner with us. He’s got the way for us to move through whatever we’re facing, especially parenting. Sometimes it can feel like madness; any bit of obedience. He’s the truest Father my son or I could ever have so it only makes sense that I would lean in to hear His thoughts about the one He gave me to parent alongside Him. 

That’s the challenge for all of us. Do we lean in to hear His thoughts on what we'd rather react to, shout at, or throw up our hands at? Single parenting aside, if you choose Jesus, the challenge is the same. How and where do we invite His contribution, his perspective to overtake our own?

Blissful and brutal- those are the two words I’d attach to my first years of being a single parent. But can I tell you what I’ve joyfully learned throughout 18 years of being a single parent? An act of obedience and a fulfilled desire of the heart don’t often look like we think they will. But goodness, the obedience is worth it and the fulfillment even more so. However, that doesn’t mean the process comes without questions, hurdles, and battles.

Join me for Part 1 of a conversation I feel we’re meant to have. I’ve got stories, some love to throw on you from Jesus, and hopefully an encouraging word.

Have you ever thought about the origins of some of our most well-known Christmas songs? I know some might think, “Now why would I care about that?” But I have to tell you, it’s truly fascinating and on today’s episode we're digging into  this reality: You just never know what God can do, how He can use you, how He can use a song … Yes, even one like Good King Wencelsas.

Beyond that, I’d like to end this year by singing you into a very Merry Christmas. Thank you for listening and thank you for leaning into the “more” of God. I have been truly honored by the testimonies I’ve heard, by those of you who’ve stopped me just to say this show has blessed you, but more than anything, that God would trust me to breathe any amount of courage into you. Bless you and your loved ones. May your days be merry and bright. 

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
 
With Love, 
Rita and the You & Me Media crew

If you’re someone who feels especially tender during the Christmas season I’d like you to know I fully understand. My mother’s birthday is the day before Christmas. This year marks another Christmas without her and each year I’m confronted with an invitation to that deep sadness. However, today I’d like to invite you to make a decision I have. I choose to force joy into my grief.

Join me in this episode as I tell the stories about how I’ve learned to push joy into the atmosphere and sorrow out-the-window. 

Merry Almost Christmas!

It's one thing to know God loves us. It's another beautiful thing to know He wants to speak to us; not only to us for our lives, but to us for the sake of another's encouragement. When talking about the gift of prophecy, there can be a sense of overwhelm in knowing where to start. So that's why I've invited my wonderful friend, Lisa Corley, to talk about exercising this gift. 

I've always loved the prophetic because a word from the Lord can change it all. Today, we're talking about the beauty and safety that comes from obedience-that obedience to speak what the Lord impresses on your heart. Simple obedience has exponential results and the simply obeying in the prophetic is no different. Join us for a conversation that will leave you even more undone by the kindness of God in how He chooses to meet us, even through the obedience of another.

As we walk into the holiday season I know it can be tempting to reach for the melancholy that’s come with years before. Whether it’s been from loss, discord, heartache, or plain old stress… But I believe God has a different invitation for us. We often cling to fear because it’s what we’ve practiced most, but what if we practiced something different?

This year, let’s orientate ourselves in real gratefulness, practice the holy, and dig into thanksgiving like it’s your mom’s mashed potatoes or my grandmother’s ginger cakes. Man, nothing can touch those! I pray this episode sparks new hope and possibly a new lens with which to walk through the holidays. I am so grateful for each of you and thank God for this opportunity to pour a little courage back into your heart.

I've never met anyone like my sister, Debbie. Today, I'm letting you in on my most recent season of grief and how God has met me in the middle of it. This is an incredibly vulnerable episode, but one I'm giving away like an offering. He's been merciful and loving in the midst of such pain, so today I'm showing you how God can meet a fractured heart; how He met mine. 
He and His peace are always ready to meet me where I am with no fear of being overcome by the sadness seeming to overcome me. I'd like to invite you to an incredibly personal conversation and for you to bring your own bag of grief. I believe God's going to meet us in it beautifully. We're not alone in processing the heartbreak of loss and we have a God who cares about seeing us whole at the end of it. 
As always, your RATINGS + REVIEWS are so helpful. Thank you to those who have already left a thoughtful review. We're just so incredibly grateful for all the courage God is pouring out through these convos.

Songs can unlock chains if God breathes on them. I mean, how cool is that? It's a beautiful reality and one of the many things I adore about songwriting. In the writing, in the mining for a right lyric/melody, I have been met with a true friend and partner in God. He met me at the piano bench as a teenager and He still does. If you like a story, you'll like this episode. If you just need some life thrown on you and to hear some testimonies of God being God? Wonderful. You're in the right place.
I'm so grateful for each song the Lord's given me. More than that, I'm grateful for what He's given me of Himself in each song. When I invite Him and all we're working through to the piano, beautiful things happen. Not only does He give me a song, He heals my heart in the process. He's the best that way. 
As always, please RATE + REVIEW our show. It truly does help spread the encouragement!

There are few people I've encountered who have the amount of faith in the goodness, provision, sovereignty, and kindness of God. Mia Fielde's story is one she shares without a shudder and with eyes fully focused on the redemptive story God is telling through her life. Her craft as a songwriter, worship leader, and call as a spiritual leader wherever she is, is one that consistently leaves me challenged. 
I'd encourage you to listen to this episode and soak up the Jesus-infused gems that pour out from the overflow of this life surrendered.

I love this episode and I know you will too! Today, I have two of my favorites at the table and we’re not holding back. I love talking with them about Jesus, leadership, what it’s like to be a woman in the music industry … But also I enjoy how much we laugh together, as you’ll see.

This episode is one you won’t want to skip or cut short, especially Kalley’s prayer for us all at the end- some great stuff. We’re not withholding any vulnerability, real talk, or jokes so hop along for the ride!

Today I’m chatting with a songwriter, worship leader, artist, and person I respect and love greatly. Cecily Hennigan is a force of nature, but more than that, she’s a force of God’s nature wherever she is. Although there may be a few decades between us, there’s a tenacity in her I recognize and love. You will too. Her backbone is Holy Spirit-given and her drive to hone her creative expression is inspiring. 

I’m so grateful for this conversation because we may start in artistry, but we’re also talking about the reality of racial tension we’re facing. A heart, perspective, and voice like Cecily’s is so crucial to the Body of Christ and I’m so excited for her to share it with you today. It’s moments like this that make me excited for the future. God’s doing beautiful things in the lives and callings of the next generation. Let’s not miss a moment!

I am so grateful to have another dear friend on this week, Anthony Skinner. You might know him as one of your favorite artists, as an incredible producer and writer, or as the creator of The Shamah Way devotional app. By the end of this conversation you'll know him to be that and so much more. What the Lord has revealed to him through simple daily meditation is game-changing for any believer and a big reason why he's with us today. Join us as we illuminate some ways to daily invite the Lord into our mind, heart, and soul. He wants to speak life into each part of us if we'll let Him. 

So what does that look like? That's what today's all about! 

If you have time, we'd be so grateful if you'd leave our show a review wherever you're listening!

Life is messy and the situations and seasons in it can sometimes bring us to our knees. It's in that very place God wants to meet us and lift our eyes to see Him and His plan as good. But when we run from the honesty and vulnerability needed to work through real pain we leave restoration on the table. God wants to meet us in our joy and in our sorrow, in our victories and in our lowest seasons, in our reality ... It's all fair game for Him when we live surrendered. 

My guest today, Jessica Latshaw, is truly a creative force of nature. From performing in Broadway shows to sharing beautifully written revelations, this Mama/Writer/Artist/Musician is one of a kind. Her story, her boldness and vulnerability, the way she articulates what she's walked through and who God is continually revealing Himself to be- Oh just buckle up. You're not ready for this one!

It's always a great time when Kalley Heiligenthal and I get together and after today, you'll surely know why. We speak the same kind of vulnerable, we're not afraid to laugh, and we have a deep respect + love for each other. She's walked with the Lord on a gracious journey and the way she expresses her joys, questions, aches, and the wisdom it's all produced will leave you lifted. 

We're talking about pastoring, calling others up, and stewarding the call of God period- not only on your life, but on the lives of those you lead. You'll leave today with some great things to mull over and rejuvenated by the tenderness of the Holy Spirit. Raising others up is a holy calling and a conversation worth our having.

There's a lot I could say about today's episode, but I think what's most important is to tell you I have one of my absolute favorite creatives on today: Amanda Cook. She's a one-of-a-kind songwriter, artist, worship leader, vocalist, and wordsmith. I love her, you will too, and I know God's going to use this conversation to encourage and inspire you. She's brilliant and full of God-breathed revelation.

We're continuing our "creative convo" this week and I'm so glad you're here for it. One thing was abundantly clear to me after releasing Part 1 ... People want to know what God has to say about the creativity He placed in them. More than that, people want to know what God has to say period. Us communing like this, hanging out, it's an open invitation for God to speak life to us. 

We're continuing to trace the lines of God's creative genius, especially found in His word. We're covering a lot of ground today, but it's good and I'm so glad you're here for the ride. Let's go!

Can I let you in on a secret? God is the most creative, wildly inventive, and brilliantly minded Artist there is or ever will be. If we miss that we miss so much of who He is and what He’s placed in each of us. 

Yes YOU, regardless of how you see yourself and understand creativity are a creative being made by the Creator himself. Welcome back to the table, I’m glad you could make it. Today, we’re digging into Creative Expression. This is honestly one of my favorite convos to have. I’m convinced He knit creativity into our being and I love helping set people afire with that truth. The more we know Him, the more we see Him as the beautiful Artist he is. 

Make sure to subscribe if you don’t want to miss new episodes!

Also, I have an Instagram if that’s your jam. I’m always up to something there so come hang out!
