Hey there friends! Thanks so much for stopping by, I’m Michelle Castro, the host of the Consider Jesus Podcast. I’ve gone back and forth on what to share here and how to prepare you for what’s to come. I’m a bottom line kinda girl and the nuts and bolts of it is…I want to encourage you to CONSIDER JESUS in all you do, but I also want to do that while having REAL, RAW, and HONEST conversations about those things we, as Christians, just don’t seem to talk about. Things like grief, sex, loss, marriage, parenting, mental health, friendships, and so much more! Through the ups and downs of my own personal story I’ve kinda become the one who tends to rip the bandaid off and say the hard things. Not because it comes naturally…nope, I’d really prefer to keep my dirt hidden, but because, the Lord has so kindly shown me that I am NOT THE ONLY ONE walking these different roads! I know you have a lot on your plate…whether it’s being a wife, mama, working, all of these, some of these, or completely different things…I want this place to be a space of comfort and encouragement! hebrews 3:1 says “Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession, Webster’s dictionary defines “consider” like this: “to gaze on steadily or reflectively” I LOVE that! I want to gaze steadily upon Jesus. I want to REFLECT Him in all I do…and I’m guessing…you do too! It’s my desire through this podcast to point you to Jesus while sharing real life stuff with you! You’ll hear from me and some pretty incredible guests. I’m not your typical 51 year old…I have fuschia hair, like my free people barrels, I’m just as happy reading a book on the couch as I am with my miter saw in the garage working on some hair-brained DIY project. I love a little coffee with my creamer, sitting around the kitchen table catching up with my family, and I’ll drive just about anywhere if tacos are involved! Thanks for taking a listen…I’ll see ya inside the pod! :)

I don't know about you, but there are times when it seems like everyone else seems to be living an idyllic life...everyone but me! Social media tends to paint a picture of these beautiful, easy lives void of suffering and disappointments. Part of my brain knows that's a lie and not reality, but then there's this part of me that can fall into the trap that it's real. Today, I'm talking with my friend (and my kids' high school pastor) about SUFFERING! Sadly, I think it's something we shy away from - I mean...who wants to sit around and talk about the disappointments and pain of life!? Well, as believers we need to understand what the Lord says about suffering, how to suffer, and how to honor Him in the process. There is HOPE! A lot of HOPE! And as discouraging as this topic may sound...I pray you walk away encouraged!
xx, michelle

- Leave a REVIEW - this helps in a BIG way. Just like with IG or FB or TT…podcasts run on an algorithm that I won’t even begin to understand…but reviews not only help the show to be seen, but it helps me when I want to reach out to those BIG names on other podcasts. So…LEAVE A 5 STAR REVIEW…please
