How to fuss fair in the family 1

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2369804/fan_mail/new] Are you damaging your marriage or family every time you argue — and don’t even realize it? Have you ever said “nothing’s wrong” when something was very wrong… and it only made things worse? Do your arguments end with understanding… or with hurt feelings that never really go away? Could one simple change in the way you argue completely change the atmosphere in your home?

Sowing and reaping cuss words

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2369804/fan_mail/new] What if the greatest damage in your relationships isn’t caused by what happens—but by what’s said?  In this episode, we take a look at the words we use in marriage, politics, and even in faith conversations—and how those words follow an unchanging law: you reap what you sow.  If you’ve ever wondered why conflict escalates instead of heals, this discussion may challenge you to rethink not just what you say—but what you’re planting.

A porch, a podcast, and 100 mustard seeds

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2369804/fan_mail/new] Ninety-nine episodes ago, Gleaning Mustard Seeds began with a simple idea suggested by members of our family.  In this special milestone episode, I'm joined by our daughter, Christi, and our grandson, Braden, who first encouraged me to start the podcast.  They reflect on how it began, the joy it's brought, and the impact these conversations are having on listeners.  If you’ve ever wished you could sit in a rocking chair on a porch in the Smoky Mountains and listen to stories that make you think, grow, and smile, this episode invites you to pull up a chair.

Is my picture printed here?

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2369804/fan_mail/new] * If a faithful member of your congregation quietly disappeared for three weeks, would we even notice — or would we only notice when it was time to print a new directory? * If you went missing from your church today, how many weeks would pass before someone filed a "spiritual missing persons report”? * Are we functioning more like a gym or Walmart — serving those who show up — or like the body of Christ that searches for its missing members? * What’s more tragic: the member who stops attending, or the congregation that waits until someone’s "deleted" from the directory to notice they’re gone?

A dose of humility

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2369804/fan_mail/new] In this episode, I tell the story of a moment that’s stayed with me for more than forty-five years—a simple comment from a friend that exposed a blind spot I didn’t know I had.  I thought I understood humility. I preached about it. Quoted it. Admired it.  But one honest sentence from a friend made me see myself more clearly than any compliment I ever had. If you’ve ever needed a gentle correction—or been grateful for a friend brave enough to give one—this episode is for you…. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
