Between Dreams and Rest: Striking the Balance Between God's Calling and His Equipping

God's Full Circle Faithfulness

It has been a wild last couple of months over here and I can't want to update you on what's been going on! Join me as I sit down for my very FIRST solo podcast as we talk about our extensive home remodeling project, the business God brought us back to after a nearly ten-year hiatus, some pretty amazing personal reconciliation, and most of all, reflecting on God's faithfulness through it ALL. Listen in and be encouraged that those spaces in your own life where God is feeling quiet or silent, He's actually waiting to prove He is FAITHFUL.

Embracing a Life of Awe and Gratitude with Carolyn Lacey

Earlier this year my publisher let me know that my book "Grateful" wasn't going to be a stand-alone book, it was going to be the first in an entire series of 30-day devotionals! I was so thrilled to get to sit down this week with the author of that next book, Carolyn Lacey, and chat about her new book "Amazed: 30 Days of Growing in Awe of God." We talk about the surprising overlap between a life of gratitude and awe, how understanding God's character can deepen our own sense of awe, and the surprising ways awe leads us to an everyday life of peace and joy.

Between Dreams and Rest: Striking the Balance Between God's Calling and His Equipping

How do you find rest while also following your dreams? In this episode I sit down with my good friend April Fry, co-founder of Ten Minas Ministry, a retreat center and haven for pastors and their families to find rest, relaxation and renewal. Listen in as April shares how God used years of near-constant moves to connect her and her family to the church abroad and open their hearts with a deep desire to start a ministry to prevent pastoral burn-out. We talk about rest, the importance of self-care and how coming to the end of ourselves isn't the break-down of our dreams, but rather the very beginning of God showing up to do what only He can do.

My Praise Will Never End with Maria Segerholm

Join me as I sit down with my sweet friend Maria Segerholm who's joining us all the way from SWEDEN! She's a talented Christian singer/songwriter and her journey of writing and releasing music holds nuggets of truth for you, no matter your stage in life. We chat about hope for our own seasons of waiting, creativity based on a Creator God, and the powerful truths that held her during a difficult season recovering from a rare stroke. Listen in as we share about faith, resilience, and the powerful truths we can stake our lives on when life isn't looking like what we'd expected.

Returning to Jesus with Jen Thompson

She just released her new book "Return to Jesus" and today we're talking all about the power of the return: through prayer, surrender, and the open door of vulnerability that allows us to turn toward Jesus not only individually, but collectively. Listen in as we talk about everyday grace, holding on to Jesus as a family, and what it looks like to continually return to Jesus in your ordinary life.
