    Episode 6: How to Take a Family Vacation Jul 04, 2016
    Show notes

    Send me a Text Message! (I can't directly respond, but I can answer questions and share comments in upcoming episodes!

    Vacations are an incredible reprieve from the daily grind, until you have to take them with kids. Then the daily grind just seems to happen in another location you had to shell out money for. Today’s episode we will learn 5 tips on how to take a family vacation so that no matter the age of the kids, you too can recreate and re-create on your vacation.


    Tip No 1. Vacation always starts by PREPARing YOUR HEART

    • Prayer - bring it all to God; often. Offer thanksgiving, ask for your time to be blessed.
    • Search the Scriptures - search keywords in the Bible like "rest" "refuge" "peace" and ask God for wisdom on how to apply truth to your life.
    • Be in communication with your spouse - (and/or other adults who are taking the trip); talk about expectations and ask where each person needs help in preparing for the trip; discuss times and ways each parent can lighten the load so the other can take a real breather.

    Tip No 2. BUILD ANTICIPATION

    • Vacation Money Jar - growing up my brother and I painted old glass spaghetti sauce jars and glued shells and other things on them, punched a hole in the top and started filling it with all the change we could find and money we earned. Decorating the jars gave us a physical reminder that vacation was coming and that we could work hard to earn spending money for souvenirs, ice cream, floaties- you name it!
    • Prayer Countdown Chain - make a paper chain with not only a countdown to vacation, but on each paper link, write down something to pray for that day as a family. This is a great way to build anticipation through prayer and go before the Lord with your trip. It teaches us to lay our requests before the Lord and eagerly wait for His answers.
    • Family Planning Night - dedicate a night (or two) to dream up the adventures everyone wants to have while on vacation. Talk about what you want to bring, where you want to go, and list some activities you can do together. This is a great opportunity for parents to set some expectations for the trip.
    • Plan a Surprise - it doesn't have to be anything big, but try and keep something a secret about the trip. For older kids you can have them guess at dinner one night while you give clues. For little ones, get them excited about a surprise activity or tasty treat. I know as a kid Dippin' Dots would have sent me off the thrilled deep-end; or space ice-cream?! So fun!
    • Prepare Together - getting reading for a vacation can be a big task for dad and mom. Dividing up responsibilities can encourage the family to work together so they can play together. Preparing might look like a big laundry day, or preparing road trip snacks, or getting the yard ready.


    Tip No. 3 Make a PLAN BUT BE FLEXIBLE

    • Create a calendar of days that you will be gone and where you will be.
    • Jot down some ideas of activities you could do for each of those days.
    • Think through museums, water parks, zoo's, and other places that may charge admission.
    • Research area attractions, restaurants, and activities.
    • Plan down time and be sure to think through the personalities of each family member and what they would enjoy doing.
    • Going in with a plan is a type of preparedness that can alleviate the stress of planning and deciding while on vacation. But be sure to hold plans with an open hand. If Tuesday is beach day and it's raining outside, it's a great exercise is adjusting expectations for the kids (and ourselves).

    God calls us to live wisely with our time, making the most of your time. Today we will discuss three of the biggest time wasters and how we can trade them for the will of God.

    Top Three Time Wasters:

    1. social media
      • tip: turn off push notifications
    2. indecisiveness
      • tip: grow in your identity in Christ to avoid people pleasing and pressure to perform
    3. worry
      • tip: learn to cast all your cares on the Lord

    Life Hack: Breakfast Sausage

    Cut down on time in the kitchen at breakfast. Pre-cook sausage links by cooking them in the oven at 350 for about 20 minute or until cooked through. Remove pan from oven and cool for 5-10 minutes and then place in freezer on pan. Once frozen, remove links and put them in a ziplock freezer bag and store in freezer until you are ready for sausage. Take a link out and microwave it for 30 seconds.

    I highly recommend Kodiak Cakes pancake mix. It has protein in the mix and more protein can be added with the addition of eggs and/or milk. We get ours at Costco, but here is a link on amazon for the same product.

    Being intentional about praying can be difficult. There are a million distractions and our prayers can sometimes feel flat and dry. If prayer is about communicating with the God of the universe can’t they be more real and deep? Today you’ll learn a creative way to be intentional about prayer so you may know God and engage with Him in a deeper way.

    Top Five Reasons to Pray through a Psalm

    1. Because as my husband says, “Psalms are already prayers.” So that’s nice.
    2. Teaching someone to pray can feel awkward - praying through a Psalm gives a template to pray though.
    3. Psalms address every life issue - from joy, to sadness, to hope, to affiliation, to shame, to people chasing after you with swords. There are 150 scenarios for you to pray from.
    4. Psalms always teach us to give God glory no matter what the circumstances
    5. Praying through a Psalm is such a simple way to get people reading the Word of God and praying at the same time.

    Psalm Suggestions

    • Psalm 1
    • Psalm 16
    • Psalm 23
    • Psalm 84
    • Psalm 95
    • Psalm 103
    • Psalm 145

    Episode 3: Sharing Your Story: How and Why to Share Your Testimony Jun 06, 2016

    You have a story to tell. One of God’s redemptive work in your life. How do you share and five reasons why you should share it on this podcast! Plus Life Hack: How to maximize space in bathrooms by adding an inexpensive way to store towels.

    Simple Method to Sharing Your Story:

    Start with the BEFORE

    • What was your life like before Jesus transformed you (before you were a Christian, or before you were free from a struggle or from guilt or shame)
    • What was the biggest struggle?
    • What are some things you tried to do to be free of your struggle? Why did they not work?

    Next, explain the HOW

    • How did Jesus transform your life?
    • What did He use to get your attention?
    • What was a key moment, experience, verse, person in this story?

    Finally, explain the NOW

    • How is your life different now?
    • Explain a bit of the transformation?
    • How does your new way of living, your new freedom, your new etc, impact your day to day living?

    Write it out!

    There's nothing like practicing to help our stories of transformation be communicated with passion, intention, conviction, and also with clarity. Then practice your story over and over so you become so comfortable with it, that your stories of Jesus's work in your life are a part of your conversations.

    Life Hack - Keeping Herbs Fresh

    Looking for a money-saving life hack that keeps your cooking game on point?

    Try keeping your tender herbs fresh in the fridge with this method for up to two weeks!on how to keep fresh herbs fresh for up to two weeks!

    To keep herbs fresh, make a herb bouquet in the fridge using a glass of water and a plastic bag.

    Directions:

    1. Take your fresh herbs, leave them unwashed, and cut off the bottom inch of the stems. I just lay the whole bunch on a cutting board and in one slice with a chef’s knife, the ends are off.
    2. Then fill a sturdy tall cup with water - enough water for your herbs stems to rest in
    3. Place your trimmed herbs inside the glass container
    4. Take a gallon plastic zip lock bag, or even the produce plastic bag from the grocery store and cover the top of the herbs
    5. Place on a shelf in the fridge where it won’t get knocked over easily
    6. When you are ready to use some herbs, remove the plastic bag, and snip off what you need, and give them a wash. Return the plastic bag and keep the rest of you rherbs fresh at your disposal.
    7. If the water starts to discolor, just dump the water and add fresh water.

    This technique works with tender herbs like cilantro, parsley, dill, mint, and tarragon.
