Holy Walking

Sabbath

Our age is busy, rushed, overworked and dealing with recurring burn out. Rest is a welcomed antidote but very difficult to create. In this episode Jen talks with Stephanie Snow and Caitlin Carpenter about God’s provision for our rest in commanding the Sabbath. They explore how Sabbath rest is more than an invitation to do nothing for 24 hours but rather a chance to experience satisfaction and enjoyment with Jesus. If you feel like you’re stuck on the hamster wheel of life, this will be a refreshing episode to encourage you to chose rest.

Creativity

Being creative can sometimes be relegated only to those with artistic talents but creativity applies to anyone made in the image of God, the ultimate Creator. In this episode Lindsay sits with Stephanie Snow and Jessica Attaway to talk about the ways we can meet with God in an unexpected and life giving way through creativity. They discuss how the creative process mimics faith, and how at it’s heart all creativity is a use of imagination. So whether you’re a painter or finding creative ways to cook meals on a budget - this episode invites everyone to enjoy Jesus while engaging our God-given imagination and following the image of our Creator.

Fast Food

For many of us, our relationship with food can be complicated and so fasting food to pursue Jesus can get difficult. Some of us have a painful history of restriction or a recurring wrestle with idolization. In addition, fasting has become the subject of popular heath advances which can make our motives for fasting muddy. In this episode Jen and Lindsay talk with friend Lindsay Tucker about their own complicated experiences with food and learning to feast on Jesus while fasting from food. This is a great episode if you’ve never fasted before and want to learn how to start or if you’ve fasted before and need fresh encouragement to engage this powerful practice.

Proactive Repentance

Sometimes repentance seems like a medication - use as needed. We engage with repentance, rarely, usually in reaction to an occasional failure. For many, repentance can feel like nothing more than spiritual negative self-talk. But is there more to it? Lindsay and Kelly Needham sit down and talk about repentance as a sign of spiritual health. They encourage proactively seeking repentance as a catalyst for spiritual vitality. Both share the ways they’ve learned to practice proactive repentance and discuss how others can benefit from regular rhythms of repentance.

Holy Walking

We use the term “walking with Jesus” as a metaphor, but have you ever actually walked, with Jesus? In this episode of Let’s Talk, Jen chats with good friend Stephanie Snow about her experience of meeting Jesus in surprising ways while walking her neighborhood. She shares the value of meeting with Jesus in “out of the box” places and the grace of finding Him in subtle, everyday ways.
