Hi Friends! We'd love to hear how the Psalms are bringing you hope this summer! Send us an email or comment on one of our social media pages (see links below) and share your thoughts with us!

This week it's Psalm 5 that we're delving into and Kim and Martha uncover some of the riches they have experienced in these scriptures. 

Personal stories of good times and struggles show up in the Psalms just like they do in real life. Psalm 5 invites us to bring our hearts to the Lord in the morning and then to watch expectantly for Him to act. 

What would life look if we took God up on this invitation?

This week's summer Psalm of Hope is Psalm 37 and Brenda Gray is our guest. Brenda has been on the podcast before and she is an amazing teacher and speaker. The insight she shares from this Scripture will challenge and inspire you. It certainly did that for us. 

How do we truly trust in and delight in the Lord? What does that even look like?

There are answers to these questions and more from today's episode with Brenda.

Be sure to share this one with a friend. You'll want to take notes on this one.

We are loving spending this summer in the Psalms with you! This week Martha shares one of her favorites, Psalm 119. Written as an acrostic with the Hebrew alphabet, it is the longest chapter in the Bible, and it powerfully upholds the Word of God as our sufficiency. How amazing is it that the God of all creation would communicate his heart to us in His Word!

We hope you will fall more in love with the Word and the God of the Word this summer, as we are.

Martha and Kim are thrilled to have their dear friend Juanita Simmons as their guest on the podcast this week! Juanita was on the podcast during last summer’s series about the fruit of the Spirit. We’re grateful she would  share her wisdom and insight with us again as she unpacks the hope found in the Psalms. 
Psalm 139 is where we’ll be spending a lot of our time today; we’re thankful you’re joining in on the search for hope in the Psalms. Summer is here and the heat is on. We all need the cool refreshing hope that God’s Word is sure to give.

This week Martha, Kim, and Amy unwrap the introduction to the summer series: Psalms Of Hope For Summer Days. 

The Rhythm of Summer may differ for all of us, but we can all benefit from embracing its beauty amidst the challenges. 

Whether you are driving kids to baseball games and swim lessons, picking blueberries or weeds in your garden, or sitting completely still to avoid heat exhaustion, summer presents a unique experience. 

How can we embrace this season to experience God's Presence? 

How can the Psalms help you to experience hope during these summer days? 

As the girls dive into these questions today, they are excited to have you on board with them to discover the riches of these ancient songs of our faith.

This week's podcast is a re-release of a previous episode from Season 2, Episode #72. We thought it would be a great way to start the summer and we will be back next week with fresh new content! 

 Martha and Kim welcome Lauren Lanza Osias to the podcast. Lauren is a wife, a mom to 2 boys, a marketing consultant and an author. Since her husband's career in the military began,  Lauren has moved around many times and knows what it's like to feel displaced. She shares openly about her desire for real community and how she learned to find it in every city they moved to. You'll love her story; you'll adore her.
She's a breath of fresh air, cheering us on to delight in the day and find our people.
