Show notes

Don't panic, but the holiday season is fast approaching! The tradition of giving gifts at Christmas stretches back centuries, finding its roots in the gifts the wise men gave to Jesus. But, somehow, Christian gift giving has gotten muddled in the consumer-driven, frenzied culture in which we live. This week we attempt to define Christian gift giving and Rebecca Cochran throws down some of her gift giving expertise. We hope this episode not only inspires you to be intentional in your gift giving, but also gives you some practical ideas as you seek the best gifts for family and friends this Christmas.

Practicing Contentment: Relationships Oct 09, 2018

Show notes

Relationships are tricky, yet God calls us into relationship as He is in relationship as the Trinity. We were designed for community, to be in relationship with other humans. That's one of the ways we are made in His image. But, we are also so human that relationships can get murky and we can often feel discontent in them. How do we fight back against that discontentment so as to live in beautiful community with those God has given to us? In this episode, we will explore these ideas more in depth.

Scripture References:

Psalm 16:6

Acts 17:26

Practicing Contentment: Aging Oct 02, 2018

Show notes

Coming off a break, we are so excited to get back to it and start Season 2 of Woven. This season kicks off with a series on Practicing Contentment. In this episode, we discuss a basic overview of contentedness and what is means to practice contentment as we age. We try to answer the question, "What does it mean to age gracefully and biblically?" Remember, contentment is an internal satisfaction which does not demand changes in external circumstances.

Scripture References:

Philippians 4:11-13

Hebrews 13:5

2 Corinthians 4:16

Proverbs 20:29

Job 12:12
