…At The Next Table

Sometimes being "the strong one" doesn't feel strong at all. Sometimes it just feels exhausting.

After a couple of unexpected weeks away from the podcast while my daughter and I dealt with some medical issues, I found myself thinking about something single moms know all too well: What happens when you're overwhelmed, scared, tired—and there's no one to tag in?

In this episode of …At the Next Table, we're talking about the weight of being "the only one," learning to let others help, trusting God with what we cannot carry, and recognizing that sometimes the faithful thing isn't pushing through—it's putting something down for a little while.

Maybe you don't have to figure out next week today. Maybe God is simply asking you to trust Him with what's in front of you right now.

If you've ever felt guilty for needing to rest, overwhelmed by being the one everyone depends on, or wondered whether putting something on the back burner means you're giving up, pull up a chair.

You may be the only parent in the room, but you are not the only One carrying this.

Free mini-lesson in thermodynamics...no extra charge.

Just give it a listen, it will all make sense in about 30 minutes.

How do you know when it's really God speaking?

Is it His voice—or your own thoughts, fears, desires, and expectations?

In this episode of …At the Next Table, we're talking about learning to recognize God's voice, discerning His direction from all the other noise, and what Scripture teaches us about knowing when God is leading us.

Because sometimes the hardest part of following God isn't being willing to go where He leads.

It's figuring out if that's actually Him calling.

You've accepted it. Now it's time to surrender it.

I share a little bit of my personal testimony. I share what happened when I surrendered the life I thought I would have, and asked God to direct me in the one I'm living. Pull up a chair and listen as I describe the moment that would forever seperate my life into two categories: Before and after.

More importantly, find out what to expect when you find yourself asking, "Ok, God. Now What?"

What happens when the life you're living looks nothing like the life you thought you'd have?

In this episode of …At the Next Table, we're talking about the plans we make, the futures we picture, and what happens when life takes us somewhere completely different. Through loss, disappointment, unexpected endings, and seasons of feeling completely alone, it can be easy to wonder where God is—or whether we somehow missed the life He had for us.

But maybe the life we imagined was never the promise.

Maybe God isn't asking us to find our way back to the life we thought we'd have. Maybe He's inviting us to discover Him in the life we actually have.

If you've ever looked around and thought, This isn't how my story was supposed to go, pull up a chair. This conversation is for you.

What happens when the life you're living looks nothing like the one you thought you were going to have?

In the first episode of …At the Next Table, I'm pulling up a chair and introducing you to the heart behind this podcast—honest conversations about faith, loss, starting over, and finding God in places we never expected to be.

This isn't a podcast from someone who has everything figured out. It's a conversation from the middle of real life—the beautiful parts, the painful parts, the questions, the unexpected turns, and the moments when God meets us right where we are.

So wherever you are in your story, there's a seat for you here.

Pull up a chair. You never know what you might overhear …At the Next Table.
