This week’s episode looks a little different—and a little deeper.

Cali and Jessica sit down for a powerful teaching moment as they unpack the biblical story of Abraham and Isaac and what it truly means to worship. Recently, Cali shared this message with our youth students, and it was too important not to bring to the podcast.

Worship is so much more than a 15-minute moment on a Sunday morning. It’s a lifestyle. It’s obedience. It’s sacrifice. It’s surrender. It’s dying to your flesh daily and choosing to Say Yes to God—even when it costs you something.

In this recap episode, Cali dives into what Scripture actually says about worship, challenging the way we often define it and inviting us into a deeper, more surrendered walk with the Lord. Whether you’ve been in church your whole life or are still figuring out what worship really looks like, this episode will stretch, encourage, and refocus your heart.

In this special episode, host Cali Mosley sits down with her newlywed husband, Caden Mosley, to finally tell their love story—one clearly marked by God’s faithfulness from the very beginning.

Together, they walk through every season of their relationship: singleness, dating, engagement, and now marriage—sharing the highs, the hard moments, and the lessons God taught them along the way. They talk honestly about how God often answers prayers in unexpected ways, how saying yes to someone can be both beautiful and challenging, and what it looks like to follow Him as a couple when the road isn’t always easy.

This conversation is a reminder that while pursuing God together can bring new challenges, it is always worth it—and that His timing is always better than our own.

This week on Say Yes, Cali and Jessica sit down with Joel Trice, Middle School Pastor at Christ Chapel Zebulon, and Ben Richardson, Kids Ministry intern and resident comedic relief. Buckle up, because this episode might just give you emotional whiplash — in the best way.

We jump from deeply meaningful conversations about leading worship, what leadership looks like behind the scenes, and the unexpected ways God uses past careers to prepare us for ministry, straight into unbelievably unserious hypotheticals… including the very important question: If you could replace your hands with anything, what would you pick?

It’s heartfelt. It’s hilarious. And it’s a reminder that God’s plan is always greater, wiser, and way more creative than our own.

This week, Cali and Jessica sit down with two absolute powerhouses in kids ministry—Lainey Smith and Ashli Trice, Children’s Pastors from Christ Chapel in Zebulon, Georgia.

Together, they dive into the real, raw, and ridiculously funny parts of kids ministry—from the weird things we confiscate to the holy moments that make every late night, early morning, and glitter explosion totally worth it. They talk camp, worship, the behind-the-scenes highs and lows, and the deep relief that comes when you meet people who truly get what ministry life feels like.

But this conversation isn’t just for pastors or church staff. It’s for anyone walking through a season of serving—because ministry is everywhere. Whether you’re parenting, showing up for your friends, loving your family well, working your job with purpose, or pouring into the people around you… your faithfulness matters. Chaos doesn’t disqualify you. God is working in it.

This episode will leave you encouraged, laughing, and reminded that you’re not alone in what you’re carrying.

Grab your coffee, lean in, and join the conversation. You’re in good company. 💛

In this episode, Cali and Jessica sit down with the incredible Michaela Kilgore for a deep and honest conversation that dives into topics not often talked about in church culture—especially among women. Michaela shares about the chain reaction of yeses that led her to her calling and how one person’s obedience can impact far more lives than they ever realize. Together, they unpack the stigma surrounding pornography through Michaela’s powerful testimony, talk about what true submission really looks like versus how it’s often portrayed, and—because Michaela’s a total foodie—they end things with some fun (and weird) food-related questions. This episode is raw, real, and filled with grace, truth, and a reminder of how every “yes” has an impact.

This week, Cali and Jessica sit down with the one and only Julie Bowers! From saying yes to God’s call—even when it means saying no to good things—to stepping into ministry through moments of discomfort and growth, this conversation is packed with wisdom, laughter, and a whole lot of real talk.
Plus, stay tuned for some spontaneous youth and kids ministry brainstorming… and a few unexpected tangents about bugs and... farts (because, of course).

It’s funny, honest, and full of reminders that God’s “yes” often starts where we least expect it.

In this episode of Say Yes with Cali and Jess, things get a little too fun when we hand Youth Pastor Hunter Bowers the soundboard (spoiler: we may never recover). Between the chaos and the laughter, Hunter opens up about his journey into ministry — how God prepared his heart long before the calling was clear, how some prayers are answered instantly while others take time, and how the place you’re called to serve might not be what you expected.
It’s an episode full of unexpected wisdom, hilarious stories, and a few moments that’ll hit you right in the heart. You’ll laugh, maybe cry, and definitely be glad you pressed play.

From her Phil Robertson obsession to a wild kitten rescue story and a Burger King fry fiasco she’ll never live down, this episode is packed with laughter and lessons.

Sami shares how saying “yes” to volunteering in Kids Ministry and taking her role seriously completely changed her life — and reminds us that you get out of serving what you put into it. Whether you’re in a season of cheering others on, stepping out of your comfort zone, or just needing a good laugh, this one’s for you.
