Culture will say run as fast as possible away from suffering. Culture will give you a quick fix for relief. But Christ says that through suffering, we can form durable hope, an eternal perspective, and lasting community. Dr. Curt Thompson, Christian psychiatrist and author, joins Tara behind the mic to talk all things suffering. We all go through it - so why don't suffer well? Learn how to persevere, let God heal you, create a "confessional community" and so much more.

Make the Most of Your Summer: Growing and Planting with God

Honesty hour? I'm tired. Not just physically, but spiritually. And something that has been keeping me tired is the undue pressure and expectation I've been self-imposing. But I'm ready to live freer and lighter - and I can bet you want that life too. In today's episode, let's talk about four things I'm letting go in my day to day life and how I've experienced freedom in the laying down. We're getting honest about our limitations (and how that's a beautiful thing), practicals for putting off pressure, and resting in your identity as a child of God FIRST.

This is the summer of FREEDOM. If you're in, grab Tara's book here.

4 Things I'm Letting Go Of

Who's ready for some serious talk? I'm shedding some light on the past six months and how I've been doing personally and what's been going on in our family - highs, lows, joys, anxieties, and more. My mom gave me one of the greatest pieces of advice about living presently and not worrying about the future, and I wanted to share it with you and how God has been changing my perspective. Tune in for a conversation about how to rely on God's daily bread, the secret to living present, and not letting anxieties about the present or future derail us from what's right in front of us.

The Key To Stopping Your Negative Thoughts From Spiraling with Dwell Differently

No one talks about how hard friendship breakups are. I'm getting vulnerable and real, sharing a friendship breakup story that is still so tender. If you've ever been hurt by a friend, lost a friendship, or don't know why someone cut you out of their life and what to do about it now... this episode is for you. We're getting real about what the Bible says about "moving on" from friendships, what to do if forgiveness is one-sided, and so much more. Most of all, I hope we can all learn how to be a better, biblical friend.
