The Grove Podcast

In this episode, Shelley Giglio sits down with international speaker, best-selling author, and spoken-word artist Hosanna Wong for an honest conversation about faith that doesn’t feel like a spiritual show. Hosanna shares stories from her upbringing in San Francisco, her dad’s faithful street ministry, and the surprising ways God produces fruit across generations. Together, they explore why so many of us feel stuck — confusing our “God life” with a perfect quiet-time ideal while our real life is full of deadlines, laundry, and responsibility. Together they explore a powerful picture of flourishing through the lens of vineyard growers, and how to nurture your life with God in whatever season you’re in. We pray that this conversation will help you release comparison, repent of pace and pressures God never asked you to carry, and take one simple step toward a real relationship with Him — today.

In this rich and encouraging conversation, Shelley Giglio is joined by Christine Caine to talk about flourishing in a world that often feels heavy, chaotic, and hard. Inspired by Christine’s new book, The Faith to Flourish, Shelley and Christine explore the biblical imagery of the olive tree and what it teaches us about being rooted in Christ, bearing lasting fruit, and thriving even in difficult places. Christine shares why this message feels so urgent for women right now, especially after years of disappointment, distraction, and spiritual fatigue. Together, she and Shelley talk about abiding in Jesus, resisting the false definitions of flourishing that culture offers, and building a life that can withstand suffering when it comes. They also have an honest and thoughtful conversation about healing, therapy, prayer, the role of the local church, and why deep roots in Jesus and His people matter more than ever. Christine reflects on her own story of trauma, healing, cancer, friendship, and faith, reminding listeners that flourishing doesn’t mean life is easy — it means Jesus is enough in every season. This episode is a hopeful invitation to stop languishing, put down deeper roots in Christ, and become women who produce fruit, freedom, and shade for the people around us.
