Unshaken
A community built on faith, strengthened by family, and grounded in resilience, created for people like you. Welcome to the Unshaken Podcast, where you don’t have to navigate life alone. Hosted by Tony and Kristy, this show is all about living out Faith, Family, and Resilience, not just as a motto, but as a way of life. Each week, we explore the real joys and challenges of marriage, family life, and disability through the lens of biblical truth. Whether you're an individual, a couple, or a caregiver, you’ll find encouragement, practical support, and unshakable hope in Christ. We’re here to build a Christ-centered community where real stories matter, struggles are honored, and no one has to feel alone. If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or unsure how to keep going, we want to hear your story, your questions, and your prayers. Because they matter. This is Faith. Family. Resilience. This is Unshaken.
