Launching Pt. 4 Sep 01, 2024

Show notes

When I recorded the first "Launching" episode, I didn't know it would evolve into a four part series, but here we are.
In this week's episode, I share some raw emotions as to what it was like for me launching our last two children from the Broggi home. And as I did, my thoughts gathered around Psalm 100 as I closed out the podcast.
Who knows? I may return to this theme again because as I shared in the show notes last time, we are always launching our children. We never stop being mothers. We never stop loving them, praying for them, cheering for them, and holding them close our hearts.

This week on the podcast, I am joined by my daughter-in-law, Maureen and you'll hear from her about launching their first born son, Jack, to college and all the steps they made preparing for this time in their lives. You've heard from me in these last two podcasts dealing with this topic and as I shared on the show notes last time, I still have another podcast in my bones to share on launching next time ...

Launching Part 2 Aug 19, 2024

Show notes

I had a feeling I wanted to do a follow up after last week's podcast. And even after recording this week, I want to do more. Why? Because every single one of us begins launching our children as soon as we find out we're carrying them. We launch them from the womb into the world and then we launch them every time they say a word or they begin to take steps or they go to their first play date or to story time in a class whether at church or at school ...

Our lives as women are spent launching our children from one stage to the next, and it continues, even after we have launched them from our homes - because in our hearts, we're still launching them as we watch them grow in their adult years, have their own families, and sometimes God even allows us to witness their lives as they begin creeping into their senior years.

So this week on the podcast, I continued with the theme of launching as my thoughts gathered around Psalm 90. Many of you are in the years of walking through life changes I was walking through 20 years ago. I want to encourage you and I know that one day, you will be where I am now should the Lord tarry.

I have much more to say in future podcasts.

I pray this week's drop will be encouraging to you.

My girls are very busy right now with their families, but they are taking time in September to come to Beaufort individually to teach a study they co-authored titled Chosen in Love at our women's ministry, Woman's Life. Their messages will be aired on the podcast during the month of September.

Launching Aug 11, 2024

Show notes

As my son and his wife launch their first child from home, I have been thinking about so many things. Life is filled with bittersweet moments. This past week, in particular, I have been filled with so much nostalgia as I reflected on how quickly time goes by, how important it is that we invest the time God gives us well, live in the moment yet all the while look forward to the future.

It's interesting, but as I was searching for a document on my computer, I came across a response I had written to someone's question back in 2004.

It was a time in our lives when we were launching three of our children from home at the same time ... that was the year we had three graduations and a wedding. And though we had begun the process four years earlier when our first child went to college, it hit me. It was 20 years ago and now these 20 years later, our oldest grandson is launching from his home.

So, I had an epiphany - I needed to share what I wrote on the podcast. See, a lot of people wonder about launching their children – whether they should let them go to "secular" universities and what God may have for them. I took the time to answer the one who wrote to me, and in my response to her, I even said this, "I am taking some time to deal with the issues you raised – I do this not only for you, but also for other women who will face these decisions."

I hope this week's podcast is an encouragement to you. I plan to follow up, by God's grace, to further explore this topic. Let me hear from you!

Chosen in Love - introduction Aug 04, 2024

Show notes

GraceAnna joined me on this week's podcast to talk about our upcoming September season of Woman's Life at Community Bible Church. Three of my girls - GraceAnna, Maureen, and Chesed - will be coming to Beaufort individually to teach the sessions from a study they co-authored on a woman's identity in Christ titled "Chosen in Love."

I asked GraceAnna questions like "When did you first start thinking about writing the study? How did it come about? What was it like as you taught it with the girls at your church? How did you work it out with your sisters-in-law? How has God used it already in your own life and in your girls' lives?"

Women of Conviction Jul 28, 2024

Show notes

This week on the podcast I exhort us to be women of conviction from God's Word. We must be women who devote ourselves fully to the Lord no matter what our age or season of life.

We must not be women who are so pre-occupied with ourselves and things that don't matter that we miss the things that do. I pray this episode helps you see the difference.

I share a lot from my heart ...
