UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF CHRIST PODCAST
Under the Influence of Christ is a transparent, unfiltered podcast hosted by sisters Helen, Michelle, and Sharon Patterson—a trio of bold voices who aren’t afraid to get real about what it means to follow Jesus. As believers passionate about encouraging others, they speak life into anyone seeking to walk in obedience, love, faithfulness, worship, and reverence to Christ.
Each episode explores the gospel in a clear, relatable way, showing what it truly looks like to live a life that honors Jesus’ teachings—no matter where you are in your walk. They bring truth with determination, intensity, and power, reminding us that the time is now. It’s time to stay watchful, be ready, and get rooted in Christ before He returns.
"Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: if the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.
MATTHEW 24:42-44
