Glordinary

By Stacy Holmes

My life is very ordinary. I’m not glamorous. But in a culture that’s constantly chasing the next shiny thing, there’s something deeply satisfying about a ”long obedience in the same direction.” It’s a... more

April 16, 2025 #56- Keystone Habits: Making Habits Work For You
It’s no secret. Our everyday, ordinary habits form us…for better or worse. We’re pretty aware of our bad habits, so let’s chat about a new way, a better way. Keystone habits shape us in the best way possible- from the inside out.

Join me in our series, Habits That Work. We’ll chat through how to build strong, keystone habits as we continue with Paul’s words in Romans 12:1-2.
www.glordinary.com

Here’s a small excerpt:
"But here’s the trend I’ve found to be true in my rule of life. On days I reached for my phone first, my day drastically aligned itself more toward anxiety, comparison, or envy. Despair, anger, or judgment flooded my early morning thoughts. The days I began with the Word, BEFORE grabbing my phone, my heart was in a dramatically different place. Coincidence? Paul submits that it is not. Our first moments of waking are some of the most powerful moments of formation. My brain became cluttered with what I saw, read, or noticed undone on my phone.”

April 09, 2025 #55- Rhythm Of Life: Why Your Habits Matter
Do you ever have days (or years) that just seem wild and unruly? Or maybe it’s a season that seems dead-in-the-water. Make the moments matter with a “rule of life” to orient yourself toward the One who holds all things together, even you and me.

Join me as we continue our series, Habits That Work. We’ll chat through Romans 12:1-2 on why our habits matter in our everyday, ordinary lives and how to build the best ones.
www.glordinary.com
Here’s a small excerpt:
"But why would Paul lead us to form a “rule of life,” a trellis for our lives to grow? Because just like in Paul’s day, culture isn’t neutral. Life isn’t neutral. You’re growing. I’m growing. And a “rule of life” helps us structure that growth and avoid decay, rot, and overall craziness. Because at the end of the day, either you will set your habits or someone else will set them for you: employer, administrator, family, friends, or your commitments.”

April 02, 2025 #54- Habits For Everyday, Ordinary Life: Habits That Work
If you ever question why you do (or don’t do) certain things, welcome to the club. Our 30,000+ decisions every day allow our brains to outsource to the habit department (or basal ganglia if you want to be specific). So, let’s talk about our habits: what they are, why they matter, and how to make them work FOR you.

Join me as we kickstart our new series, Habits That Work. We’ll take a look at Paul’s nearly 2,000-year-old wisdom from Romans 12:1-2.
www.glordinary.com

Here’s a small excerpt:
“But our habits aren’t formed in the vacations of life; they’re formed in the everyday, ordinary life. What’s more is that habits are forming YOU and ME in the everyday, ordinary parts of life. And that’s actually great news because as disappointing as this may sound, real life isn’t vacation. It’s not weekends and holidays. Real life is every day. Real life is ordinary.”

March 31, 2025 REPLAY #1- Ordinary, But Better
A Glordinary Birthday Celebration! Enjoy this Top Ten Replay!
This opening teaser episode shares a glimpse into the Glordinary backstory. What does a Glordinary life look like?
My life is very ordinary. It's not like I "settled" for ordinary. I chose to stop chasing culture's "extraordinary" to embrace a different kind of life, a distinctive life, a better life. Glordinary is a few moments where we glimpse God's Glory in the unseen, hidden, and ordinary places of our regular lives. Each week we'll Truthfully encourage, champion the ordinary, and invite meaningful reflection. I'm glad you're here.
