A Merry Christmas Podcast Dec 16, 2022

Show notes

Have you ever thought about the origins of some of our most well-known Christmas songs? I know some might think, “Now why would I care about that?” But I have to tell you, it’s truly fascinating and on today’s episode we're digging into this reality: You just never know what God can do, how He can use you, how He can use a song … Yes, even one like Good King Wencelsas.
Beyond that, I’d like to end this year by singing you into a very Merry Christmas. Thank you for listening and thank you for leaning into the “more” of God. I have been truly honored by the testimonies I’ve heard, by those of you who’ve stopped me just to say this show has blessed you, but more than anything, that God would trust me to breathe any amount of courage into you. Bless you and your loved ones. May your days be merry and bright.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
With Love,
Rita and the You & Me Media crew

Finding Joy Dec 09, 2022

Show notes

If you’re someone who feels especially tender during the Christmas season I’d like you to know I fully understand. My mother’s birthday is the day before Christmas. This year marks another Christmas without her and each year I’m confronted with an invitation to that deep sadness. However, today I’d like to invite you to make a decision I have. I choose to force joy into my grief.
Join me in this episode as I tell the stories about how I’ve learned to push joy into the atmosphere and sorrow out-the-window.
Merry Almost Christmas!

Lisa Corley | Hearing God Nov 18, 2022

Show notes

It's one thing to know God loves us. It's another beautiful thing to know He wants to speak to us; not only to us for our lives, but to us for the sake of another's encouragement. When talking about the gift of prophecy, there can be a sense of overwhelm in knowing where to start. So that's why I've invited my wonderful friend, Lisa Corley, to talk about exercising this gift.
I've always loved the prophetic because a word from the Lord can change it all. Today, we're talking about the beauty and safety that comes from obedience-that obedience to speak what the Lord impresses on your heart. Simple obedience has exponential results and the simply obeying in the prophetic is no different. Join us for a conversation that will leave you even more undone by the kindness of God in how He chooses to meet us, even through the obedience of another.

Grateful Hearts Nov 11, 2022

Show notes

As we walk into the holiday season I know it can be tempting to reach for the melancholy that’s come with years before. Whether it’s been from loss, discord, heartache, or plain old stress… But I believe God has a different invitation for us. We often cling to fear because it’s what we’ve practiced most, but what if we practiced something different?
This year, let’s orientate ourselves in real gratefulness, practice the holy, and dig into thanksgiving like it’s your mom’s mashed potatoes or my grandmother’s ginger cakes. Man, nothing can touch those! I pray this episode sparks new hope and possibly a new lens with which to walk through the holidays. I am so grateful for each of you and thank God for this opportunity to pour a little courage back into your heart.

Tell Your Feet to Walk Again Oct 28, 2022

Show notes

I've never met anyone like my sister, Debbie. Today, I'm letting you in on my most recent season of grief and how God has met me in the middle of it. This is an incredibly vulnerable episode, but one I'm giving away like an offering. He's been merciful and loving in the midst of such pain, so today I'm showing you how God can meet a fractured heart; how He met mine.
He and His peace are always ready to meet me where I am with no fear of being overcome by the sadness seeming to overcome me. I'd like to invite you to an incredibly personal conversation and for you to bring your own bag of grief. I believe God's going to meet us in it beautifully. We're not alone in processing the heartbreak of loss and we have a God who cares about seeing us whole at the end of it.
As always, your RATINGS + REVIEWS are so helpful. Thank you to those who have already left a thoughtful review. We're just so incredibly grateful for all the courage God is pouring out through these convos.

Sacred Song Moments Oct 21, 2022

Show notes

Songs can unlock chains if God breathes on them. I mean, how cool is that? It's a beautiful reality and one of the many things I adore about songwriting. In the writing, in the mining for a right lyric/melody, I have been met with a true friend and partner in God. He met me at the piano bench as a teenager and He still does. If you like a story, you'll like this episode. If you just need some life thrown on you and to hear some testimonies of God being God? Wonderful. You're in the right place.
I'm so grateful for each song the Lord's given me. More than that, I'm grateful for what He's given me of Himself in each song. When I invite Him and all we're working through to the piano, beautiful things happen. Not only does He give me a song, He heals my heart in the process. He's the best that way.
As always, please RATE + REVIEW our show. It truly does help spread the encouragement!

Mia Fieldes | A Jesus Overload Oct 14, 2022

Show notes

There are few people I've encountered who have the amount of faith in the goodness, provision, sovereignty, and kindness of God. Mia Fielde's story is one she shares without a shudder and with eyes fully focused on the redemptive story God is telling through her life. Her craft as a songwriter, worship leader, and call as a spiritual leader wherever she is, is one that consistently leaves me challenged.
I'd encourage you to listen to this episode and soak up the Jesus-infused gems that pour out from the overflow of this life surrendered.
As always, we would be so grateful for your to RATE + REVIEW our show.
