Outside the Pulpit
Outside the Pulpit is a podcast for Christians who love God but feel spiritually stuck — and are ready for real, lasting transformation.
Hosted by Spiritual Growth Mentor & Christian Transformation Coach Lisa Meador, each episode helps you align your thoughts, emotions, and daily actions with God so you can live the life He created you to live.
This isn’t another “try harder” spiritual show. It’s where Scripture meets mindset renewal, emotional clarity, and Spirit-led growth. Lisa teaches practical tools — including her signature Journal With Jesus approach — to help you uncover hidden beliefs, overcome internal roadblocks, and walk confidently in your God-designed purpose.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the “right things” but not seeing change… you’re in the right place. Here, transformation happens outside the pulpit — in real life, with real people, through honest conversations and practical, faith-filled steps.
Subscribe and start your journey toward clarity, confidence, and lasting transformation.
