Becoming Disciples

This week we are tackling a question from Anna and discussing how to stay focused on God when you are single and would like a husband. Or in other words, how to cultivate a life where you are when you would like to be somewhere else.

All of us have unexpected events occur in life, but what are we going to do when they come? We can either throw a fit because we aren't getting our way or we can walk a path of grace- because God always goes before us. This week we are discussing some ideas for managing life when the unexpected arrives.

1. Am I really willing to let God interrupt my plans?
2. You can be sad and surrendered.
3. Share your heart carefully. 
4. Be flexible with routines and schedules.

This week we're discussing how to manage the basics of home life and why it's important. Home management cares for your family while also making time for you to pursue other interests. 

Please note that we are taking a sabbatical for the month of November but we'll be back in December! 

The foundation of home management is self-discipline. Discipline brings freedom. 

Then we discuss the various ways that we have handled different aspects of home management and suggest some other options that might work for you. We discuss:

1. Meal planning
2. Laundry
3. Cleaning
4. Scheduling

This week we are answering a listener question. No, it's not a mini episode because we're tackling how to move from singleness to marriage. We discuss five areas that will help you share your life with your man. 

1. Clear communication: have open and continual conversations
2. Self-Denial: life is not about you
3. Understanding what marriage is: the goal is for your husband to serve God better
4. Honesty about expectations: your husband can't read your mind
5. Grace for growing: a difficult season in marriage doesn't mean it's over

Phylicia just moved 12 hours and her family is living with her parents while they renovate the house they just bought. Lisa is in the process of transitioning some of some of her son's medical care and we've both been reminded that transitions and waiting for the final solution is often harder than it should be. This week, we're going to discuss how we can walk through transitions in a way that glorifies God.

1. Don't rush it. You like to avoid difficulty because it's uncomfortable but it's helping you grow.
2. It's ok to grieve. You can be sad about leaving people or places or seasons in life.
3. God's will is clear today. You might not know what's coming tomorrow or next week but you do know what God wants you to do right now.

We are excited to announce the start of a weekly Q+A mini episode where we will tackle one listener question in (hopefully) under ten minutes. 

For the inaugural episode we are discussing whether pursuing a dream conflicts with a wife's role of supporting her husband and if that matters before marriage.  

The Q+A episodes will typically air on Mondays with your regular content released on Thursdays. Thanks for listening!
