Regina Swarn Audio Series Presents - I Built This Show To Lift Up The Lord

Episode Date: August 11, 2026

Fan MailA big platform can tempt you to chase headlines, arguments, and the loudest topics of the day. We go the other direction and explain why: this show is built for faith, positivity, and real lif...e stories that lift people up, not political coverage or nonstop news commentary. Coming off my sister Lora’s memorial, I share gratitude for the support and the unexpected reach across radio and online spaces, while also being honest about grief and what it takes to keep showing up with a sincere heart.You will hear how I think about protecting my peace, filtering negativity, and keeping my circle focused on what is life-giving. I also lay out the heart of Regina Swarn  Audio Series: guests come on and tell their story in their own voice, and I ask questions along the way so the conversation stays natural and true. Season 10 is around the corner, with a steady rhythm of new guest episodes each month and a clear expectation that guests share their own episode so their story can reach more people.We also get practical about everyday routines that support health and consistency, from not eating late for better digestion to living vegan and choosing home-prepared meals after a bad restaurant experience. To round it out, I share what listeners have been asking for: a refreshed podcast website and the return of blogging so you can keep up beyond the audio.If you want a Christian podcast centered on testimony, gratitude, and protecting your peace, press play.

Hello everyone.
Starting point is 00:01:13 Welcome back to another episode of Regina Sworn Audio Series presents. Oh, let me take this little cap off. Oh, my God. Let me talk with a camp on. Welcome back. Thank you all so much for your love, for your patience, for your support, I mean, for absolutely everything. This is way overdue.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Welcome, August. August. Hello. Welcome, baby. I'm sorry. Welcome, August. I have so many things this month. coming off of my sister's memorial from last month, and oh my God, it was so successful.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Hurt by thousands and thousands, several million people around worldwide radio online and announced by amazing YouTubers. You know, I'm just really thankful to God how good he's been to me. There is, I can't say enough how much. much that I thank the Lord for being the head of my life. He's the head of my life, you know. And even though I've met with a lot of love, I receive a lot of love. I've also met with jealousy, envy. But I don't let that into my circle. You know, I keep my podcast positive. I don't let the negative people in, I just don't. It makes it better when you just keep a circle around
Starting point is 00:03:02 yourself. God got that fence around me. And only positivity is let inside of this fence. Only people who got a positive mind real and sincere. You know, I am a work in progress. I am totally not perfect. I'm a work in progress, but God knows my heart is sincere, and he is definitely working on me, and I know that he is going to make things the way he wants them to be. I know he is. But in the meantime, I'm going to proceed and move forward with this podcast. Yes, I have a huge platform. I do. And a lot of people say, you've got a huge platform. you should be covering the news and covering this and that listen. And I need to take that off of one of my ads.
Starting point is 00:03:57 I'm going to stop covering politics. There's enough people covering all these other things. My podcast was made to lift up the Lord or tell people's story about their lives. That's what my podcast was about from the beginning to let you tell the story of your life. If you're a musician, what's going on in your life? That's what my podcast is about. And when I speak, speaking of the goodness in my life, and what the Lord has done for me or what he did for me or did for me or do for me,
Starting point is 00:04:33 that's what my podcast is about. It is not CNN or Fox or any of the YouTube channels. It is not that guys. So if you come in here and you're looking for some news or the other, you're not going to find it. because my podcast again is tailored around positivity and I don't want all that other stuff I don't want to talk about all the other depressing stuff I just don't you got people out there that you got enough people out there covering that so please be content with that so if
Starting point is 00:05:12 you want to hear more about the Lord you want to come here and hear about people people tell their life stories, then my podcast is for you. If that's not what you're looking for, then it's best to go elsewhere. And it's not going to hurt my feelings at all, I promise you. Season 10 is about to start. I have a lot of people that's on the guest list. Oh, my God. I'll be doing three podcasts a month for audio.
Starting point is 00:05:47 series. I think I've expressed that before, but I'm saying it again, three podcasts a month for audio series, where the guests come on tell their own story. I like when they tell their story. You know, I
Starting point is 00:06:03 I'm the kind of person that like to listen to you tell me your story. Yeah, I know people say, but I want you to ask me this and ask me that. Nobody can tell your story like you can. And amongst you telling your story is when I ask my questions.
Starting point is 00:06:22 That's the way I do it. That's the way I did it from this story, guys. And that's the way I'll continue to do it, you know, letting you come on and tell your story. And then I ask you questions. That's how I do it. So if you don't like the way I do that, then you probably need to go. There's a lot of people out here. They promise you, if you go elsewhere, it's not going to, in other words, it's not going to hurt my feelings.
Starting point is 00:06:46 because I do have a lot of people that follow me that want to listen to whomever comes on my show. You know, they listen to it. So there you go. And when you come on, now don't just come on and be a guest. Once you're a guest, make sure you share your podcast. Be happy, be proud. I mean, a lot of you may not like the word proud.
Starting point is 00:07:08 But can I say be happy? And share the podcast because you are telling your story. you are letting people know about you. And so therefore, you need to share it. I do share the podcast. I share them a lot. My memorial services were so huge. They were so amazing.
Starting point is 00:07:34 So many people tuned in, and they're still tuning in. A couple of the radio stations are still rebroadcasting those memorial services, Oh my God, just totally unheard of. So I'm so thankful to God for all of the support that I received in July. Typically a very sad month for me because my beautiful sister, Laura passed July 29th, 2020. And so that's normally a very sad month for me, but guess what? It was a lifting up Jesus month, the Holy Ghost month.
Starting point is 00:08:12 It really loves, and it went so great. I thank the Lord. I give the Lord all the praises for the things that he is doing in my life. I thank the Lord for it. I cannot express to the Lord more what he's doing in my life. Please don't let my pretty posters fool you. A lot of people will look at the posters and try to critique me or try to judge me off of something that they see, you know?
Starting point is 00:08:40 and I love that message by Pastor Tammy. I really loved it. You know, I am a person who I know I love DeLore. I know that God is, I'm not ashamed to say I'm a work in progress. But my heart is sincere. God is working on me even every minute of my life. The Lord is working. But at the same time, I shouldn't sit back and wait.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I should get out and try to, tell people about the love of the Lord. Talk about the Lord, how to get to the Lord. Bring on guests who can tell you how to get to the Lord. That's what I'm doing. I'm not just sitting back with my hands fold and saying, okay, God, God is going to work it out. No, I'm doing something.
Starting point is 00:09:32 My late great pastor used to always say that we're doing judgment work. And back at the time, I didn't know what she wasn't talking about. But as the year's progress, I understand. it means that the things that you do, you're going to be judged for them one day, you know? And so I just thank God for every single day of my life. I thank God for health. I thank God for strength. I think God for being able to do the things that He's allowed me to do
Starting point is 00:10:03 because a lot of people, you know, they can't. You know, when you get down in your body and things, you cannot do these things. things. So while God, give me the breath and the life and the strength, I'm going to lift up Jesus and lift up the Lord and give
Starting point is 00:10:24 the Lord my best. So I had to say that because God has been good to me, so good to me. Blessing me in every possible everything I touch. It seems like
Starting point is 00:10:40 the Lord blessed it. It's like it just touch it and it turns to goal. That's the way it seems. Everything I touch, the Lord bless. And I thank him for it. Because if I put God first in which I do, then God really loves that. He like when you put him first and honor him.
Starting point is 00:11:03 I honored the Lord. I honor him with my life, with my substance, with everything. I honor the Lord. and I honor his people. And I thank God. I thank God for everything. I thank you for my life, my health,
Starting point is 00:11:24 oh God, my strength, which is the strength of the Lord. The joy of the Lord is my strength. That's what gives me strength, the joy of the Lord. So I just thank God for the different podcasts that I am about to do, reading this for an audio series is just three times a month.
Starting point is 00:11:46 It has become so incredibly popular that I'm blown off. I just swept off my feet by that. But I would do children's stories. That would be like three times a month too. It would be different podcasts. You know, because a lot of kids like to hear me read stories and things like that. So I'll be doing that. I'm really happy about that.
Starting point is 00:12:10 And so, and yeah, I have a new podcast website. And pot page is going to do that for me. I need that because a lot of people say I miss you blogging. We visit your official website, but we miss checking out your blogs. We miss just having a website with just your podcast. So I'm going to bring that to you all that want that, which is everybody that follow me. I'm going to have that to you very soon.
Starting point is 00:12:44 I'm personally working on that myself. So I'm going to have that for you. And you start to see my blogs again and read my blogs. Yay. So I just want to thank God. Come over here and thank God. I had a late dinner today. I don't generally eat after 6 p.m.
Starting point is 00:13:01 That's me. Other people around me, they eat, you know, they eat sometimes pretty, you know, 7 o'clock. But I don't eat past 6 o'clock. I've been practicing that for years and years and years. And it's not because I'm trying to, well, I mean, pretty much the same size for all these years. I keep my weight and stuff down, but I'm not doing it for that. It's just that I like giving my food a chance to digest. So if I eat after six, that kind of work a little bit on the digestive system.
Starting point is 00:13:32 So I just try to eat before six. And that's the reason why. because my beautiful digestive system need to do his thing, you know. So that's the reason. And I'm so thankful for having a person to come over and cook because she cook anyone that's here. See if you are here at my place. And you want a cheeseburger or a steak.
Starting point is 00:14:00 Well, she can fix that for you. Isn't that cool? And on my end, I eat vegan. I don't eat meat. dairy products, so she make my food for me as well. Because I can't just go to a restaurant. I can say, well, can you not put this in there or that in there or that in there? And I got really violently sick one time eating out at a restaurant.
Starting point is 00:14:27 And I think I got zucchini, and they put everything in there. They had some stuff in there that didn't agree with my system and something that I don't eat as well. So it made me sick. So it's at that point that I said, I tell you what, I'm just going to start making my meals at home. Now, I do still go out with people to eat, but I know this sounds crazy, but I don't really order much. So it's not to offend anyone, you know. I go out with them for business reasons, but I really don't order.
Starting point is 00:15:03 I really don't. And if I do it, it's something very light, you know, something that I know. something that I know what I can see what they got in it, you know. But I'm not offended if someone is sitting across me eating a big juicy steak or a cheeseburger. I'm not offended by that. I can sit across from you and you eat what you eat and I have what I have, you know. So, yeah, I'm not offended by that at all. So don't ever be scared to go out with me because you think, oh, my God, she don't eat meat.
Starting point is 00:15:35 So what am I going to do? Don't worry about that, guys. I'm not here to judge you. I don't judge people. I really don't. You know, I live my life. God live my life through me. And so I don't judge other people.
Starting point is 00:15:50 I'm not here to judge nobody. You know, it's me through Lord's sending in the need of prayer. I thank God for my podcast. Yes, I've been met with a lot of jealousy. A lot of people would sit back, wish sometime wishing the worst and received a few letters when people were wishing the worst. but you know what?
Starting point is 00:16:09 They go right to spam. Most of that negative stuff go to spam. I just thank God for being good to me. I'm going to continue to lift up the name of Jesus, the Lord, and watch him bless me. And he's been doing that. And I thank the Lord for that. So I thank everyone who's a part of the last month's memorial.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Thank you. And I thank God for the guest who was signed on to be a part of my audio series. going forward. We are about to start season 10. I had to think we're a moment, guys. This is right. Season 10 is about to start. Thanks again.
