We are hosting our FIRST in-person live podcast recording and we’d love for you to be there! This event will be open to the public and free tickets will be given away first come, first served, at the door. We will also be giving away free pizza and soda while supplies last. The format of the evening will include a brief intro to the podcast, an introduction to our guest speakers and some members of the current FSR cohort, a panel discussion about identity, purpose, and faith, followed by an audience Q & A time.

Each podcast season features a cohort of young women from diverse backgrounds who serve as co-hosts, bringing real and unfiltered questions about identity, doubt, cultural pressures, relationships, church hurt, and faith. Rather than scripted teaching, episodes center on authentic dialogue. Young women voice their honest questions and seasoned Christian guests join us to offer thoughtful, faith-rooted responses.
-
Each podcast season’s content is curated entirely by young women and their questions or objections. However, the audience of Finding Something REAL (FSR) is diverse and spans generations of those navigating faith, identity, and cultural pressures. FSR also serves as a resource for parents, mentors, and ministry leaders seeking insight into real questions people are asking. Some of our favorite guests and listeners are men!

Finding Something REAL Ministries, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, exists to share the truth and love of Jesus Christ with young women (and beyond). We believe lives are changed when young women are welcomed into compassionate spaces where the gospel is central, hospitality is generous, and conversations are real.
Our ministry is focused on 1) building and investing in intentional cohorts of young women from various backgrounds. 2) creating online space and a weekly podcast where we explore spiritual questions and answers from a historical Christian perspective, and 3) hosting in-person gatherings including small retreats and larger outreach events.
-
It’s our desire to host future live podcast recordings in other locations, including college campuses.
We also have a garden party fundraiser planned for June 19th. For ticket information, please contact us.
