49: Collaborate Sep 04, 2018

Show notes

Making the decision to move forward with an idea is hard enough, but one thing that can keep us feeling especially stuck is trying to move forward with a decision alone because we are afraid.

When it comes to collaboration it takes a certain amount of courage to say yes to an invitation. But for some of us it takes courage in even greater measure to extend the invitation in the first place.

45: Receive a New Beginning Jul 10, 2018

Show notes

We want see evidence of growth in our lives, but it can be discouraging when we can't figure out how to release old habits.

Perhaps true maturity and a growing faith show up not in our ability to stand up straight and blameless, but in our willingness to turn, again and again, back to the face of God.

43: Receive Silence Jun 26, 2018

Show notes

Psalm 139 is a familiar chapter, but what does it take to let your heart be searched by God and be led in the everlasting way?

It sounds lovely, maybe a little terrifying, but mostly out of reach. Maybe it isn't as hard as all that.

Maybe we just need a little bit of silence. I hope these few minutes will lead you right to it.

42: Receive Peace Jun 19, 2018

Show notes

Studies show our brains process spoken and written language differently.

We may often sit to read scripture, but how often do we allow scripture to read us?

It might be surprising how a small amount of intentional time can begin to smooth out the chaotic edges of your soul.

This continues our summer series of still moments.

41: Take A Breath Jun 12, 2018

Show notes

When we take a deep breath, it sends our body a message: You're going to be okay.

In the beginning, God breathed life into mankind -- breath was the beginning. So it makes sense this is the first step to decluttering the soul, especially in the midst of transitions as we learn what it means to begin again.

Today I'll share how I am working to maintain the integrity of my own offering to you by creating some space for my own soul to breathe.
