    Take the Pressure Off: 8 Simple Ways to Teach Your Littles About Jesus
    Jul 23 2024
    It's time to move from "intimidated" to "attainable" when it comes to teaching your littles about Jesus. Trust me - I'm no expert, but I have learned a thing or two about integrating gospel-moments and the Word of God into our daily routine that has been such a blessing for everyone. In this episode, I'm sharing eight ways that Michael and I practically include Jesus in Hunter's day, while teaching him about the gospel. Plus - they're FUN. Whether you're a mama, caregiver, babysitter, or hopeful mama one day, you'll walk away with at least one (IF NOT MORE) life-giving tool to use today.

  • Taking Care Of Your *Soul* When Life Feels Like A LOT

    Taking Care Of Your *Soul* When Life Feels Like A LOT
    Jul 17 2024
    Has anyone ever told you that you are a WHOLE person? In this season of big changes and busyness, I've come to an important realization: How I'm doing physically and mentally affects my relationship with God. In this episode, we're getting personal about how I've neglected my physical and mental health and how that has affected my intimacy with God. If you want to prioritize your whole body health (mind, body, and spirit), tune in for biblical practicals to get you started today without the overwhelm. This is the summer of *FINALLY* seeing "surrender" as beautiful.

    Unplug and Steward Your Phone Well with Joey Odom
    Jul 2 2024
    We may be "stepping on some toes" with this conversation, but with all of the love and grace and hope of the gospel. Let's face it: Our relationship with our phones is a complex one. Joey Odom is a breath of fresh air and wisdom here to explore how technology has shaped us, practical strategies to prioritize relationship with people and Jesus over our phones, parenting advice, biblical examples, and so much more. If you're longing for a life more present, intentional, and joyful, then it starts with this conversation on how to steward our phones. (This doesn't mean chuck your phone in the woods and live like a monk... we can live intentionally with our phones present, but our feet more present in our daily lives.)

  • Put These On Your Summer Bucket List!

    Put These On Your Summer Bucket List!
    Jun 25 2024
    Inspired by an old bucket list from 2017 I found, this episode is all about who we become in Christ this summer and less about what we do. Whether you're by the pool, at your cubicle, doing laundry, running kids around, or anything in between, I'm sending encouragement straight to your earbuds about six things and Scriptures I'm focusing on in this season. Let's be women more preoccupied with who God is growing us to be, rather than what we accomplish or if our summer looks "aesthetic." This is the summer of FREEDOM.
