Charm'd Series #2: Eve Charm'd By Forbidden Fruit
As we take a deep dive into Genesis 3, we see how Satan charms us to give him access to our lives. And although our disobedience results in consequences far out of our control. God has made a way for us to be redeemed through His Son, Jesus.
If you'd like to participate in the Bible study that goes along with these episodes you can download this week's notes here:
Eve: Charm'd by Forbidden Fruit
Charm'd No More! Episode 1
During this 6 part series of podcasts, we are going to discover that the world has absolutely nothing that can even begin to compare with what God has for us. By studying the examples of women in the Bible we will learn to recognize the deceptive “charms” that the devil dangles in front of us and then develop spiritual disciplines that will enable us to hold out for God’s best.
My prayer is that we will take action steps that will trigger a change in our cravings. And rather than be driven by the desires of the flesh, we will learn to be satisfied with the wisdom, power, love and plans of God.
Then, as we exchange the counterfeit for what is real…we will add insult to injury as we battle against Satan’s attacks and take the very things that he charm’d us with—and allow God to redeem those things so that they become opportunities for our lives to SHINE for others.

Books mentioned are: A Visual Guide to the Bible: Seeing and Knowing God’s Word by Tim Challies and Josh Byers Bullies and Saints: An Honest Look at Good and Evil of Christian History by John Dickson
Just a reminder to tune in next week for the final episode where Kaleigh/Selah and I debrief regarding these 3 episodes. And be watching for the release of our new podcast, "Love works! (HARD)"
Why Is Deconstruction Such a "Thing" Today?
In this episode Leighann shares 5 cultural realities that impact deconstruction; then tells you the two reasons people choose to deconstruct their faith; and what we can do in response to them. This episode isn't for the person deconstructing their faith but rather for the person who loves them. This is part 1 of a 3 part series.
Reflections Series Part 4 of Born and Reared in Ministry
We wrap up our conversation with Mikel and Kaleigh in this episode. The girls give pastors and their wives some great advice and encouragement and then they share what they would tell their younger selves and what they want to say to other PKs. We had such a good time recording these episodes that we will probably have some more conversations in the future. ENJOY!
Reflections Series Born and Reared in the Ministry Part 3
In this episode Mikel and Kaleigh give ministry parents advice on how to create safe space for their children to process and develop their own faith in the messy middle of the ministry home.
Reflections Series Born and Reared in Ministry Part 2
In this episode Mikel and Kaleigh continue sharing their experiences of growing up in the ministry. Their honest reflections present a challenge to the church. Let's take Jesus' words to heart when He exhorted us to love each other well, don't forget that He said the world would know we are His disciples by how we love one another.
Reflections of a Ministry
On this podcast my mom talks about a lot of things—mostly prayer but also spiritual warfare, parenting us, her adult kids —even though we might not need it as much as she thinks we do, she also shares what it’s like be a “church lady” in an increasingly post-Christian world. And don’t get me started on church ladies!
This is the place where mom admits that she contemplates things that are too wonderful to comprehend and where she shares interviews with people whose lives have greatly influenced hers. Just wait til you hear the interviews she did with my sister and me!
Mostly she wants to remind us that no matter what we’re going through, “God’s Got This!”
I’m Mikel McCoy and this is my mom’s podcast.
Reflections Series Born and Reared in Ministry with my Daughters
As a pastor's wife and mother of PK's I have often wondered at the unique blessings and challenges the life of ministry creates for us and our children. In this season when the church is being challenged, it's good to hear from those whose lives have been most affected by it. Leighann has invited her daughters Mikel and Kaleigh to share their reflections of what it was like growing up PKs.
Love Came Down--Final Episode in our Advent series
In our final episode of the advent series Leighann shares her reflections on the love of God demonstrated in the perfect gift of Jesus. It's our prayer that you and your family take some time to worship Him as you celebrate the love you share this Christmas.
Joy to the World, the LORD Has Come!
This is week 3 of advent and we light the pink candle. In this podcast Leighann shares her thoughts on JOY and how its anchored in the steadfastness of God's power and love.
Are You Enjoying All the Peace You Get?
When Jesus died to save us, He gave us 2 kinds of peace. This week of the advent, as we focus on our Prince of peace, we will discuss both our peace with God, and the peace of God that are ours to experience.
Content in this podcast came from these places:
How Deconstruction Affects the People Deconstructing
I know we can't really even begin to get inside the mind and heart of another person, especially one that we disagree with--but, with enough research we can gain insight into what they might be thinking and feeling. In this episode Leighann shares what might be going on inside the people you love who are deconstructing their faith. This is part 2 of our 3 part series on deconstruction.
As a reminder, I postponed the publishing of this series until now (February rather than November). As it turns out, this series is a great segway into the exciting new podcast my daughter Kaleigh/Selah and I are doing together called "Love works. (HARD)" She and I are preparing to launch this new podcast together where we will share what we've learned throughout the tumultuous journey her deconstruction has taken us on. That's not all we're going to talk about, but it is going to be our starting point.
If you know people who are in the deconstruction process, and/or parents and other family members they are leaving in their wake please share these episodes with them and invite them to join us when we launch our new podcast, "Love works! (HARD)."
Put Your Hope in Jesus this Christmas Season

A Brief Word about Prodigals and 3 Things You Can Do to Survive Them
Well, my friends...here's what's happening. I'm up to my ear lobes in creating content for a class Tom and I are teaching on Wednesday nights at our church. I thought it would be fun to video our daily lessons and post them for our class via email. It was in the process of posting these emails that I discovered that I've lost "day 3" so in an attempt to complete my task quickly, I decided to share "day 3" on my podcast platform. You are getting a brief peek into the work I'm doing for the class we're calling "Perfecting the Art of Parenting Our Prodigal(s)." I hope that you are encouraged by what I'm sharing here. If you'd like to continue the "deep dive" into the story of the prodigal--the one Jesus told in Luke 15--then go over to my website at www.leighannmccoy.com and check out the blog post series.
An Article Worth Sharing: Deconversion is Not As Countercultural as You Think
In this episode, Leighann is sharing an article she found online that offers interesting insight into the popularity of deconstruction in our culture today. The essence of the article is found in this statement: "So before you file divorce papers from the Christianity of your youth, know that doing so is in no way countercultural. Like marital divorce, it’s thoroughly acceptable and common. I want to suggest that the far more radical—and truly countercultural—choice isn’t to abandon Christian faith because it is maddening, difficult, and out of step with the contemporary zeitgeist.
The radical choice is to keep the faith."
The article is written by Brett McKraken and is available on the Gospel Coalition website: Deconversion is Not as Countercultural as You Think.

Why It's Important to Take Responsibility for the Choices We Make
In this episode, Leighann shares how shirking personal responsibility seemingly shrinks free will. The devil wants people to consider themselves at the mercy of powers beyond their control so that he can keep them in bondage. Listen to how he subtly deceives people into thinking they don't have the power God's given them to make their own decisions. As always share this podcast with anyone who might benefit from hearing it.

Binding and Loosing: A Powerful Privilege and Responsibility for Us
Have you ever tried to bind the devil in Jesus' Name and nothing happened? Have you wondered what it means to exercise spiritual authority when you pray? In this episode Leighann launches from a message by Tony Evans that explains what Jesus meant in Matthew 16 and 18 when He challenged us by saying that "whatever" we bind and loose on earth will be bound and loosed in heaven. After you listen to this podcast, share it with a friend and then go listen to Tony Evan's sermon.

God doesn't always deliver what we ask for in prayer but He does always answer us when we pray. In this episode Leighann discusses how to embrace a right perspective in prayer. Using Job as an example, Leighann challenges you to let God take you on the adventure of intimacy with Him, not in spite of the hard times, but rather especially through the hard times.

"Be in Agreement with Me" A Raw and Real Conversation with Rhonda Kemp
Rhonda has been my friend for many years, and we've reconnected through her frequent visits to Tennessee. In this conversation, Rhonda shares the story of her firstborn, daughter, Lacy who died at 30 years old after a struggle with opioid addiction. Through the tragic loss of her daughter, Rhonda has learned what it means to really trust God. She challenges us to give up the control we think we have to the One and Only who truly knows what is best and how to accomplish it. Share this episode with anyone you know who's lost a child; and with friends and family members who may be dealing with the disease of addiction.

Finding Sobriety on a Mountaintop The Phoenix
The Phoenix is another ministry Rhonda mentioned was where the only cost to participants is 48 hours sober. Their mission to help people stay sober in community with each other. "If you’re in recovery from substance use disorder and have the desire to live sober, we will help you find strength and a new community of friends to support your journey."
I took notes because Rhonda was saying so many great things; here are some of them:
"Get up, dress up, show up!" Advice given by another grieving parent.
"Satan wants to keep you in bed."
"Be in agreement with Me." What Rhonda heard God say to her while standing in the yard outside her daughter's apartment the morning she discovered she had died.
"People need to go to heaven and we need to help them get there." That's all the really matters here.
"People are so full of nonsense! Stop worrying about all the other stuff."
Don't Waste the Wait and Other Great Advice from Tammy Murphy
One of God's best ways of blessing us is by connecting our hearts with kindred spirits. That's exactly what God did for Leighann the week after Mother's Day when she and Tom spent a few days with their friends John and Tammy Murphy. It was after several good long walks that we decided that we had some good things to share with you! This podcast is filled with great advice related to caring for aging parents, loving our husbands well and learning to be good parents of our adult "children." If you have a friend you'd love to take a walk with, share this podcast with her. :)

5 Things We've Learned About Parenting Adult Children with Tom McCoy
In this episode, Leighann and her husband Tom share what they have learned in their first decade of parenting adult children. While parenting adults can be challenging, you have everything you need to succeed. Listen and learn 5 of the most valuable things Tom and Leighann have learned in their journey.
5 Things We’ve Learned in This World of Parenting Adults
It’s okay to be okay that they didn’t turn out the way you thought they would.
- Affirm who they are
- Be wide open to what God is doing in their lives (Isaiah 55:8-9)
- Enjoy the surprises (if you can).
2. Don’t blame yourself for their challenges and failures.
- What good does that do?
- When did you ever set out to mess them up?
- Part of them being their own person…and might be God’s way of revealing Himself to them.
3. Hold on for the ride (and sit some of it out).
- Not your job to rescue, protect, or intercede anymore
- Offer advice but ask first
- Sometimes you might want to look the other way
4. Resign from being their teacher.
- They’ve graduated.
- Nothing you can tell them now that you haven’t already told them before.
- They might resent your pounding them with the truth.
5. Love them (and their significant others) with no strings attached
- Remember when they were babies? Expect nothing more than what they gave you then.
- Don’t wait until—- to love them
- Express your love in ways that let them know there are no strings attached

Bottom line, pray! And don't give up!
Scriptures referenced are:
1. Is God big enough to answer this prayer? Isaiah 40:28, Job 26:14, Psalms 147:5, 8:3-4 and 93:4
2. Does God love me enough to answer this prayer? Romans 8:28-39, Ephesians 2:4-5, Zephaniah 3:17, Psalm 86:15 and John 3:16

Reflections on the SBC and It's View of Women
I don't often address issues that might be divisive but decided to give my reflections on what the Southern Baptist Convention's executive committee did a few weeks ago. Their actions directly impact women in ministry; more specifically, women who are serving in pastoral roles. In this episode I discuss how the SBC functions, what the "office of the pastor" is understood to be, and why the current leadership of the SBC decided to "oust" Saddleback Church.

Lyrics to the hymn, My Hope is Built on Nothing Less
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus' name
On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
When darkness veils his lovely face
I rest on His unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil
His oath, his covenant, his blood
Supports me in the 'whelming flood
When all around my soul gives way
He then is all my hope and stay
On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
When He shall come with trumpet sound
Oh may I then in Him be found
Dressed in his righteousness alone
Faultless to stand before the throne
On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
