The Glass House
Ministry Leaders and their families live in a “glass house”—an environment where they are left vulnerable to the stress of ministry, the criticism of others, and feel the spotlight on their personal weaknesses. Lifeway's "The Glass House" is a space where ministry leaders will shed light on the challenges they often don't feel permission to talk about. Listeners who work in the trenches of church life will feel seen and gain tools to navigate ministry and life. Those who live outside this "glass house" will better understand what it's like to dwell there. Join Ben and Lynley Mandrell for these shockingly confessional—yet redemptive—conversations.

Merry Christmas, everyone!
In today’s episode of The Glass House, Ben and Lynley share their heartfelt reflections on this Christmas season. From the joy of having all their kids home to the blessings of serving their community, Lynley opens up about how the meaning of this season deepens as life brings new changes.
Ben reflects on a year filled with significant milestones, embracing both the joy and the bittersweet moments that come with Christmas. They acknowledge that while this season is a time of celebration, it can also be a time of sorrow for many. Together, they point us back to the ultimate hope we have in Jesus—the Savior whose birth we celebrate and whose return we eagerly await.
Stay tuned for some exciting plans we have in store for the next season of The Glass House!
