How Do We...Study the Bible Nov 08, 2017

Show notes

For our second episode in our "How Do We" series, we're discussing Bible study. How should we approach the Bible? What does Bible study look like with small children? What are some of our favorite resources?

Lisa gives you three questions to consider when coming to the Bible and shares some encouragement if you've ever fallen asleep while reading the Bible.

Phylicia breaks down her process for stepping through a passage of Scripture and how she uses outside tools for historical and literary context.

A Biblical Approach to Birth Oct 25, 2017

Show notes

What does the Bible really say about birth? In this first solo episode, Phylicia tackles Genesis 3 and how Christians should approach birth and babies.

New Age ideology dominates the birth conversation largely because the church has been silent besides to terrify women with whispers of "their curse." But man was cursed too, right?

There is a promised Redeemer that comes through childbirth and that knowledge affects how we view birth today.

-God designed our bodies to work this way. It is largely complicated by the fall but still on the framework of God's beautiful design. -We live in a world unaccustomed to discomfort or suffering. But God never leaves us even when things are hard.

A Biblical attitude toward birth matters.

Meal Planning Q+A Oct 18, 2017

Show notes

In this week's listener Q+A, we tackle how we both handle meal planning. (Just for context, Lisa has a family of 6, Phylicia has a family of almost 4.) Our meal planning strategies have changed some over the years but it still saves the evening witching hour.

Here are some ideas for menu planning:

-make a list of easy to cook, easy to modify meals and cycle through those -repeat the same breakfast and lunches -keep a pinterest board of new recipes and try one a week -start food prep earlier in the day -pick a time to prep food for the week -pack your lunches if you're regularly gone at mealtime

There's not one right way to meal plan. Just find something that works!

Handling Trials Oct 04, 2017

Show notes

In this episode, we discuss where we've been the past two months (hi, again!) and go over some thoughts on dealing with trials in your life. It's mostly an unedited, off-the-cuff discussion of how God's been working in our hearts that we hope encourages you in your own hard moments.

Living Outside Your Comfort Zone Aug 04, 2017

Show notes

We're back!! While breaking for a few months (when Lisa had Luke and we both dealt with some personal issues), we have changed the format of the podcast to allow us to produce more content with less recording time. This week, however, you get a normal podcast episode. Thank you for listening!

This week we are tackling the topic of comfort zones: why people like them and why we should embrace opportunities to step outside them.

Discomfort is the only way to grow.
See discomfort as a challenge instead of a hindrance.
Discomfort shows God's grace and strength to others.
Discomfort shows us our need for God.

Where Conservatives Go Wrong May 17, 2017

Show notes

This week we are tackling an issue that plagues conservative circles: basing worldviews on a reaction to the world instead of on what the Bible says.

We provide a few examples of this, such as holding motherhood as the highest calling of women, viewing women as objects of sexual temptation instead of humans made in the image of God, and advancing courtship as the answer to hookup culture.

But not to worry, we also discuss the answer. We don't have a five-step program that fixes all the problem but we do remind you that your personal theology matters. Get in the Word, know what it says, and build your worldview on that.

How to Build a Life You Love as a SAHM May 03, 2017

Show notes

We're baaaaack! After a slightly unexpected break (we really did intend to record a few episodes while Phylicia was visiting Lisa but we talked too much and did Facebook lives), we are back with a new episode! We intentionally titled this episode "how to build a life" because a life you love doesn't magically appear. You don't luck into it and no one else does either. Here are a few ideas to make this happen.

Be a tourist in your hometown.
Structure your days with a weekly view in mind.
Get outside!
Nurture creativity and personal projects.
