Unpolished Faith

  • サマリー

  • Welcome, friend! Unpolished Faith is a space of belonging for Christian women who feel out of place. The REAL you belongs here. We are carving out a space on the internet that’s raw and real—free from all the "isms" that hold you back from a whole life with God. This isn’t the perfect, polished podcast you often find in Christian women's circles. Join international speaker and writer @madifranquiz as she fearlessly navigates the raw and unfiltered aspects of the Christian faith. From singleness to mental health, politics, and everyday Christian life, we have authentic conversations, diving into topics that matter deeply but aren't always discussed openly. Yeah, it’s unpolished. But that’s kind of the point. The last four years in Madi’s life have been wild, filled with crazy twists and turns. The Lord showed up for her somewhere between obedience, hard knocks, and hard work. She has learned one lesson through her journey: God is not looking for perfect; He wants all of us just as we are. It's been a journey of surrender and discovery, realizing she is no longer about being perfect, polished, and performing for her worth. The liberating truth is that it's in our messiness where we encounter God's grace the most. From holding back due to the fear of imperfection to finally surrendering to God's plan, Madi's story exemplifies the transformative power of embracing our flaws and allowing God to work through them. And, now, she wants to share in this freedom with you. Get ready for candid conversations, inspiring narratives, and practical insights that will challenge and transform your faith journey and encourage you to live authentically. Each episode delves into the stories and experiences Christians sometimes shy away from—the struggles, doubts, and questions integral to living out our faith. This won’t be a stuffy, “churchy,” one-sided conversation. Throughout the podcast, Madi invites friends, family, pastors, academics, theologians, authors, and everyone in between to join the conversation because, just like you, they are unpolished, too. This podcast reminds you that it's okay not to have it all together. We have someone who is perfect, so we don't have to be. So, if you're seeking hope, growth, meaning, and a deeper understanding of how the gospel can transform your life, 'Unpolished Faith' is for you. The invitation to live free is open! So, pull up a chair or turn up the radio in your car. Let’s uncover the woman you were created to be. Together, we'll discover that amid life's messiness, the real stuff is indeed the good stuff.

  • Is There Hope for Gen Z? | Patricia Engler
    2024/11/21

    Hey friend! Welcome back to another episode of Unpolished Faith! Today, we’re bringing back my friend, Patricia Engler to discuss the rise of Marxism in the West, her new book, and if there is hope for Gen Z.

    Patricia is a Christian apologetics speaker, author, and podcast host for Answers in Genesis. She joined AiG–Canada as a speaker, writer, and youth outreach coordinator in 2019 before transferring to AiG–US in 2022. She also serves as an Answers News panelist and cohosts Zero Compromise, AiG’s podcast for young adults.

    After graduating from homeschooling and earning a BSc degree, Patricia backpacked 360 degrees around the world in 180 days documenting how Christian students keep their faith at university. The top takeaways from this research are available in Patricia’s book, Prepare to Thrive: A Survival Guide for Christian Students. In 2022, she embarked on a second backpacking journey to research Marxism’s history and consequences in Europe. Both backpacking trips formed the basis for separate teaching series available on Patricia’s blog. Patricia is now pursuing an MA in bioethics to help Christians think biblically about sanctity of life issues and emerging technologies.

    Thanks for listening and sharing with a friend!

  • Where Are All the Christian Men!? | Jaco Booyens
    2024/11/14

    "If you want to break a culture, you'll weaken men by sexualizing and objectifying women. A weak man will not defend a woman; he will not understand that a woman has influence. Why did Satan approach Eve in the garden? Why did Mordecai approach Esther? Because women have influence, but you will not have strong women if you do not have strong men ." -Jaco Booyens

    Y'all.

    I am STOKED for today's episode. This is one you will want to download and share with 3 friends! On the show today have Jaco Booyens. Today we are talking about men in the American church, pornography, sex trafficking, and taking up moral leadership. You may think those don't go together, but trust me- they do. Whether you're a man or a woman, be prepared to be on FIRE for what the Lord has called you to do, in such a time as this.

    Jaco Booyens is a native of South Africa and an American citizen. Fighting sex trafficking is personal to Jaco. After witnessing the horrors of trafficking through his younger sister, who is now a survivor, Jaco turned abolitionist in 2001. He is a well-recognized speaker on human trafficking, Christian faith, and motivation.
