Sacred Ordinary: God in the Messy and Mundane Feb 06, 2024

Show notes

Mountain-top experiences with God are wonderful and can be transformative, but for most of us, they are also rare. Thankfully, we don't need to create an incredible moment, travel to a gorgeous location, or be in a special place at a certain point in time to be with our God.

He has already traveled to us and continues to live in us even in the most mundane and messy moments of our daily lives.

Tune in today to encourage your heart and open your eyes to see and enjoy our God who is already here enjoying you.

💡Today's Big Idea: God has already traveled to you and travels with you.

⚡️Today's Small Step: Pause in the middle of one of your ordinary moments today and savor doing it with God.

QUOTES

"Transformation is actually carried out in our real life, where we dwell and God and our neighbors… First, we must accept the circumstances we constantly find ourselves in as the place of God's kingdom and blessing. God has yet to bless anyone except where they actually are." Dallas Willard

When God Writes Your Story Jan 30, 2024

Show notes

In an age where the world clamors for our attention, it's easy to get lost in the chaos, wondering where to invest our precious time, focus our scattered thoughts, and anchor our restless hearts.

Yet, above all the noise, God is the ultimate author of our stories and as we learn to tune into His whisper, He's eager to help us stay on His path.

In this episode, I'll share four formational practices that can help us faithfully follow God in the ever-unfolding plot of our lives.

💡Today's Big Idea: God is writing a beautiful story with your life, He knows the plot line, and we know Him.

⚡️Today's Small Step: Choose one practice or rhythm to engage in this week that will help you step back, and check in with God about the bigger picture, so you can begin to realign everything around that main thing.

Living Well: Lessons From Dan Miller Jan 23, 2024

Show notes

Living well and dying well, that's the big-picture view of all our lives. But it's easy to get caught up in the busyness of our daily routines and forget to live with intention and reflection. When we do so, we might miss out on fulfilling the purpose that God intended for us.

Dan Miller is truly an inspiring example of someone who lived and died well. His wisdom and lessons have left a lasting impact on me, and today, it's a privilege to share some of his insights with you.

May you be inspired by Dan Miller's example to live a life of purpose and intention. And may God's blessings be upon you as you journey towards living and dying well.

Time-Enoughness Jan 16, 2024

Show notes

We're all busy. Overworked, overloaded, and overwhelmed because there's not enough time to do everything God has called us to do. Or is there?

Today we're exploring the powerful concept of "time-enoughness," the fact that there is always enough time to do what God created us to do. The question is, how can the beauty of "time-enoughness" permeate every minute of every day?

💡Today's Big Idea: There is enough time to do everything God has called us to do.

⚡️Today's Small Step: Choose one place in your life today to be fully present while releasing yourself from the false guilt that there are other places you should be.

Start With Who Jan 09, 2024

Show notes

Purpose-driven living is important, fulfilling, and at times, frustrating. After all, if we are actively partnering with God in living out our purpose on earth, why is progress so slow? Why do so many things go wrong?

In this episode, we'll look at what drives and motivates God and what we can learn from that. Is being purpose-driven at the center of all He does, or is the deeper reality that God starts with "who?" Who He is, who He loves, and who He is committed to helping us become.

💡Today's Big Idea: As you think about purpose, "Start with Who" God is calling you to be.

⚡️Today's Small Step: Download our Free "Start with Who" worksheets to discern "Who" God's calling you to become more of in this season of your life. www.paceofgracepodcast.com/free.

Small Moments Make a Big Life Jan 02, 2024

Show notes

God answers prayer. He really does, and I love sitting with friends and sharing all the miracles God has performed, the big ways He's shown up, and the powerful shifts that happened when God did what only He can do.

But I'm discovering that it's the small prayers and tiny moments that bring about the most transformational change.

Join me in today's episode, as we rediscover the simple ways we can cooperate with God in those small moments that make up a big life.

💡Today's Big Idea: Pray about everything, big and small.

⚡️Today's Small Step: Pull out a goal that God's laid on your heart, and find a way to break it down so that you can pray about every small step along the way.

Longing to Belong: You Are Welcome Here Dec 05, 2023

Show notes

We live in unusual and challenging times. Despite being surrounded by people, many feel overwhelmingly lonely. We're swimming in gigabytes of information, yet it seems like very few know us for who we truly are.

God created us with a longing to belong, so what do we do when we can't find people who support us, cheer us on, and celebrate us for who God made us to be?

In today's episode, you'll learn three practical ways to help you find your people and your place in this world.

Don't miss my personal invitation for you to join our new "Pace of Grace Patreon Community." It's a community of Christ-followers who are committed to cultivating sustainable and delightful rhythms for living and working at God's pace of grace.

💡Today's Big Idea: You already have a seat at God's Table of Belonging. Live from that confident place.

⚡️Today's Small Step: Check out our "Pace of Grace Patreon Community" at www.KimAveryCoaching.com/community.

Pace of Grace Patreon Community

Life is already too complex, so the goal of this community is to be delightfully simple and simply delightful. We offer two Grace Gatherings each month and a grace-filled online community to help us stay connected in between.

GRACE GATHERINGS:

Monthly Prayer and Planning Meeting with God: The first Tuesday of each month (11:00-11:50 am ET: Replays available), you can enjoy a spacious, interactive Monthly Prayer and Planning Meeting with God. It's a facilitated conversation that allows you to prayerfully chart a course for the upcoming month by fully partnering with God.
Growing Deeper in Grace: The third Tuesday of the month (11:00-11:50 am ET: Replays available), you'll discover the beauty of Growing Deeper in Grace, by engaging in interactive activities and having rich conversations that are both deeply spiritual and intensely practical.

ONLINE COMMUNITY:

If you like the online space, you will love our warm and spiritually thoughtful online community. I'm probably biased, but I consider these friends of mine some of the world's most fabulous people.

AFFORDABLE & ACCESSIBLE: Prayerfully become a supporter at the level (or tier) most comfortable for you ($75, $50, or even $25 a month,) and receive full access to all our benefits. We are committed to making this as affordable as possible and trusting God to bless your generosity in supernatural ways.

Come when you can, and participate as much or as little as you would like. There's never any guilt or obligation.

I Can't. He Can. I Think I'll Ask Him. Nov 28, 2023

Show notes

"I can't." These two words often slip from our lips when we're feeling stuck and frustrated, seemingly unable to move forward despite our best efforts.

But imagine if we could follow up those "I can't" moments with a resolute, "God can. I think I'll ask Him."

It changes everything because our God is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-connected, all-resourced, and always willing to extend Himself to help you and me.

In this episode, we'll delve into how we can transform our frustration into an open invitation for God to perform His most remarkable work in our lives.

💡Today's Big Idea: I can't. He can. I think I'll ask Him.
