God's "Still Small Voice"

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1916060/open_sms] I talked to a student last year who believes the only way God communicates with believers is through the Bible. And while I agree that God DOES communicate with us through His Word, He also gives us His Holy Spirit so we can be in constant communion with Him, even beyond reading our Bible. On this point, however, she and I did not agree. Here are my takeaways from that conversation! Check out the Life at Peace Podcast channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2WTUbi4LWVYcwB0mlqbeWA

Cultivating Intentional Time With Jesus

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1916060/open_sms] For the month of January, I have been waking up at 4:30am to hang out with Jesus! And after I fight off my urge to roll over and skip a day, I actually manage to learn some things! Tune in to hear firsthand how that is going, and hopefully, you will come away with some practices to integrate into your quiet time with Him as well!

The Beauty and Pain of Work

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1916060/open_sms] "There's no such thing as a happy career. To work is to lose in life." - Principal Ava Coleman of Abbott Elementary Once upon a time, I felt similarly about work. I even thought it was punishment that we are subject to until we die. But in recent years, my perspective has been transformed. The institution of work originated with God. When we work with integrity, faithfulness, and hearts eager to please God, we are worshipping Him! And we are fulfilling His command to "fill the earth and subdue it" while being good stewards of His creation. Yet, as believers, we also wrestle with the fact that there are many frustrations in our work (overzealous bosses, office politics, gossip, bureaucratic hurdles) that can thwart our attempts to serve God.  Tune in as I discuss the beauty and pain of this thing called work!

Laziness

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1916060/open_sms] Lazy days are gifts from the Lord and are much-needed sometimes. A lazy LIFE, however, is a different story. The Bible speaks out frequently against laziness, and perhaps this is why: When we habitually give in to laziness, we become unproductive and ineffective instruments in advancing God's kingdom on earth. Join me as I dive into Scriptures, pop culture, and my own lived experience to navigate the implications of this particular sin.  Check out the Life at Peace Podcast channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2WTUbi4LWVYcwB0mlqbeWA

Procrastination

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1916060/open_sms] It's happened to you and it's happened to me! Some of us are repeat offenders and others do it every now and then. I'm talking about procrastination: A seemingly harmless habit that, if unchecked, can lead to undesirable consequences.  Check out the Life at Peace Podcast channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2WTUbi4LWVYcwB0mlqbeWA
