#364: Can I Reclaim Quiet? With Sarah Clarkson
In a noisy, fast-paced world, quiet can feel out of reach—like it’s a luxury reserved only for the super-spiritual, the ultra-disciplined, or those with endless free time. But quiet is, and always has been, at the heart of every single person, and it’s essential to our spiritual life and growth. So today on the 4:13, author Sarah Clarkson is back with a powerful reminder: quiet is not about the absence of noise or distraction—it’s an orientation of the heart.

Plus, she’ll teach you how small, practical shifts in your daily habits and mindset can lead to a richer, more present way of living. I promise you are not too busy to embrace this.

#362: Can I Get Free and Stay Free? With Ian Morgan Cron
We’re all just trying to get through life in this messed-up world, and whether we realize it or not, we all go looking for a “fix” to help us cope with the pain, uncertainties, or difficulties we face. Sometimes those fixes seem harmless, and other times, they spiral into habits we can’t break. So, today on the 4:13, best-selling author, psychotherapist, and Enneagram expert Ian Morgan Cron will challenge the way you think about addiction. He’ll explain what addiction really is, how everyone is addicted to something, and why the 12 Steps aren’t just for alcoholics—they’re for all of us. Whether you’ve struggled with overeating, overworking, perfectionism, or just find yourself stuck in a bad habit or unhealthy cycle, you’ll discover that addiction isn’t just “their” problem. It’s all of ours. We’re all prone to self-destructive behaviors that ultimately create more problems than they solve. But here’s the good news: there’s a path to freedom. And it’s not about white-knuckling your way through change—it’s about a grace-powered transformation that leads to spiritual awakening.

#361: Can I Really Know the Holy Spirit? With Margaret Feinberg
Lots of believers have questions about the Holy Spirit—like who is He? And should I “feel” Him? Does the Holy Spirit show up today like He did in the Bible? And why do other believers seem to have a connection with the Holy Spirit, and I don't? Well, if you’ve ever wondered these things, you’re not alone—and you’re in the right place. Today on the 4:13, Margaret Feinberg will take you on a journey through Scripture—from the Old Testament to Pentecost—to uncover how the Spirit has been at work since the very beginning. She’ll answer your burning questions about the Spirit, including how to recognize His work in you and around you, whether or not He still speaks to His people through dreams, and how to discern between something that is Spirit-led and something that is self-led. And most importantly, she’ll help you realize that you don’t have to settle for just knowing about the Holy Spirit—you can truly know Him.
