Who's the "+ 1" in your marriage? YOUR NEW BABY! The next statement will SHOCK YOU! There's some scary parallels between your baby and infidelity! New parents, or parents to be, please listen to this episode, it may save your marriage and your family.

Grief and Loss isn't often associated with "parenting", unless its in relation to the death of a child. But just as much as there is to gain when becoming a first time parent, there is also lot of loss with the birth of a first child. But these conversations aren't always had among Christians. The dark clouds of parenting aren't always talked about and this leaves many new parents to weather the storms of change and the unknown on their own. I hope this episode gives you a sense of community in your suffering and in your loss. I hope that you realise that trying your best- is the best you can do.

They lost. But there's way more to sport than winning. A mistake that's often made in team sport is putting a lot of pressure on one or a handful of players to get the win. Experts, commentators and fans can fall into the trap of highlighting key players in a team. But this FIFA World Cup Australia learned that we to cheer on our entire team when we lost our star Striker, Sam Kerr to injury. Through the Matildas' journey this WC, I was reminded of similar mistakes we make in our churches. @pennyprojectsrs

Some things, we don't get to choose. In Timor, I didn't get to choose how I showered. Where we stayed- a bucket and scoop IS classified a shower. But when I knew I could shower in a river- I knew I'd much rather abundance over convenience. What would you choose?

"Thus would I go on missions of mercy, Following Christ from day unto day, Cheering the faint and raising the fallen, Pointing the lost to Jesus, the Way. Going afar (going afar) Upon the mountain (upon the mountain) Bringing the wanderer back again, back again, Into the fold (into the fold) Of my Redeemer (of my Redeemer) Jesus the Lamb for sinners slain, for sinners slain" Just being lazy....didn't have time of a proper episode summary :) but let me tell you all about my family's mission trip to Timor Leste!!

People often judge parents by the kids actions. I know, it shouldn't be like that but it's true in many cases. So what happens when people judge God by our choices? Sweet potatoes, it's a worry; or is it an honour?

IDK I still think BFF are like burger advertisements- big claims on flavour and satisfaction, marketing is impressive (and borderline deceitful) when in reality- their messy, half the size they're supposed to be and dry. But hey, convince me otherwise... No, I know some of you went to the right place to order your "BFF meal" and have lived a happy life with that trusty BFF from Kindergarten. Good for you, but I still believe the lesson we ALL have to learn- the "friendship scourges" AND the "let's have our babies at the same time" crew- is that our trust should never be on our friends more than on God.

Did you hear about the Asbury Revival?!?!?! If you didn't make sure to listen to this episode.

Ok, I've been thinking about death some more. This one cut a little too deep. This episode feels very close to home, I'm convinced I might be heartbroken in Heaven.
