EP 127 Tom Stonecipher: Healing for Your Hearing - When Prophetic Voices Get it Wrong
Lean in and take some notes because today's episode with Pastor Tom Stonecipher is full of wisdom and healing for anyone who has been harmed by prophetic voices that got it wrong. What should we do with them? Are they still trustworthy? How does God speak to us? If you hear a prophetic word, what should you do with it?
Tom lays the groundwork of a beautiful message for all who have been hurt by the recent events and finding our true identity -- in who we are, not what we do.

Ep 125: Tanks & Transitions
"We are going about our everyday lives doing our everyday things and in the background, God is setting up everything we need."
Transitions in life are TOUGH! But God showed me something fascinating about the way He is working in the background even in hard transitions.

Ep 123 Whose privilege is it?
The tales of the last missing chocolate chip cookie caper and thoughts about misplaced privilege. This one word in the story of Luke 10 caught me off guard and reminded me of something super important that shifted my quiet meditation times this week! Also, I share how trying to stay undistracted in your quiet time just makes you more distracted! Here's a simple tip to deal with distractions.

"God's picture of your life is greater, bigger, and more impactful than you could ever think."
Today's chat with Will G of the "Free Will Talkin" podcast is all about exceeding expectations -whether it's looking back at our lives & what we expected to accomplish, how surrendering his family brought the desires of his heart back to him or even how we often underestimate the potential and value of others surrounding us. Will G shares how to stay on track to see the best days of our lives....better than we would ever expect!
Ep 121 From Death to Life
Like the tree in my neighborhood, things around us can look so dead, and yet there remains a little bit of life that makes its way to the surface. Taking things from appearances and situations of death to life is just what Jesus does over and over. There is hope!
Ep 120 Amie Stockstill: Helping others grow in calling & grieving

We were never meant to walk this road alone.
Also, you get to hear Amie laugh while I choke on an almond and we learn all about Embrace Grace!

Ep 118 John Lynch - When We Get Blindsided
Wow, when I hit record two months ago while John Lynch and I were having a conversation about being blindsided, we hadn't heard a thing about COVID19 or the economy collapsing or American grinding to a halt. But, the words and the prayer spoken at that time have never been more timely for today. As you listen to this podcast, may you be reminded that God is ever-present in the midst of the beauty and the rubble.
"The best life, the greatest life, is not the pristine life, the fully satiated life, the fixed life, the neatly ordered life. The best life is the real one with God receiving glory as you trust him, enjoy him and others amidst the beauty and the rubble." - John Lynch
Romans 8:28 God refashions all of the evil on this planet that hits all of us and employs it to give us an even better life than if it had never happened.
Ep 117 Which Part of the Crowd Are You?
In Mark 10, we see a crowd that has two distinct parts? Which part would you be in -- future-oriented or fear-oriented? We have a choice. Also, I share 3 ways that we can keep our hearts towards the hope of the future, based on "Man's Search for Meaning" by Viktor Frankl.
Ep 116 Never Alone
During this time of social distancing and shelter at home, many who already live alone are feeling the burden in an especially heavy way. You can be literally alone or be in a crowd of hundreds and feel alone. Here's the most important thing to remember.
Ep 115: Highs and Lows
"We ride the highs and lows," - Andy Grammar "Smoke Clears" These days are full of highs and lows seemingly out of nowhere! But if we look at scripture, we notice a pattern--Jesus also goes from highest highs to lowest lows one after the other! Here are a few examples and how we recognize that we are in a typical cycle of life. Hang in there...highs will return again.
Ep 114: Prayer for Business Owners & Loss of Job
What's been on my heart? Business owners like us who have lost all their income & jobs overnight due to COVID -19. Here are some simple ideas to reduce spending, but mostly just a prayer from my heart to yours. We are with you. God is with you.
Ep 113 Compelled: How moving in faith achieves things we may never understand
In this crazy time I know one thing, God is still speaking. Sometimes we just feel compelled to do certain things that might not make sense and we may never understand why. Let's take a look at 2 situations in the Bible where incredible gifts were on the other side of people's obedience. When those feelings come, the gut feelings, the urges, the Holy Spirit whispers, here's why it might be important to follow those feelings.

"God doesn’t write sad, boring stories. Oftentimes when we’re living out a sad, boring story it’s something that people have written for us. Our own decisions have written for us."
