What lie are you believing? Do you know how to silence it? Do you know how to take Scripture and use it as a shield from the parts of the world aiming to devalue you? I love this conversation with Gretchen Saffles, creator of Well Watered Women. Here’s No One Told Me How To Stop Believing The Lies.

The story of the holiday season: We scroll and see the best and we feel like the worst. So this year, I’m laying down some boundaries. Some standards we Hollands are going to live by. Hopefully. Until I see someone with a well-placed ‘Welcome Santa’ on their front porch and demand we turn our front yard into a poor man’s Dollywood. But, until then, these are the things I will and will not do this holiday season and I’m bringing the person you want along with you on any new venture - our friend Brooke. Here’s No One Told Me I Get To Decide What My Holidays Are Like.

We've lost the art of small talk. Our phones have robbed us of the ability to make idle conversation. So, today, we’re going to help with that. Whether it’s storing up information to keep the conversation going at the Thanksgiving dinner table or just having something to talk about at the copier..these Did Anyone Tell You episodes are here to give you some entertainment and some information you didn’t know you wanted. Here’s the rundown on Dolly, the Christmas holidays and Disney+.

Your burdens aren't yours alone to carry. Sometimes, we struggle to let loose of the control we're white knuckle gripping in our hands. But Jesus never wanted that for us. Here's No One Told Me I'm Not Alone.

Some people forget to eat and some people plan every single meal down to the mashed cauliflower with cheese substitute sprinkled on top. I’ve fallen in both categories. Our relationship with food, good or bad, runs over into much of our lives. But what if we stopped looking at food with the mindset of good or bad, healthy or unhealthy. Maybe this topic doesn’t necessarily strike a chord with you but I would be willing to guarantee someone in your life struggles with their view of food and, in turn, their view of themselves. This mindset we’re talking about today changes all of that. Here’s No One Told Me I Can Change The Way I Think About Food.

Have you ever felt like you should definitely do something, made a huge decision, threw yourself into uncertainty because you knew it was the right thing...and then nothing? It didn’t immediately work out. Whatever your expectations were became distant dreams but you still knew it was the right thing. For Michael and Heather, that’s what their journey into international adoption has been. Lots of hope, lots of disappointment, but a confidence along the way that made putting one foot in front of the other always the right thing to do. From closing adoption agencies, to slow paperwork, to months of waiting, this sweet couple has navigated a hard road because they knew their baby girl was waiting for them on the other side. Hear more in No One Told Me About International Adoption.

When I get to record some episodes, I feel almost like I need to write down every word that’s said because I want to remember it. This is one of those episodes. My friend, Heather, put a voice to a lot of the lessons I’ve learned, but need to be reminded of - and a whole lot more that I need to learn. Here’s No One Told Me How To Step Into A Calling.

Whether you’ve been to a wedding, have been in a wedding or you’re the reason the wedding is happening in the first place...this episode is the real deal when it comes to talking through the planning, the juggling and the real or imagined pressure you feel to dance to songs other than the Cupid Shuffle. We talked about it all in No One Told Me What Really Matters About Weddings.

Making decisions only seems to get harder as we get older. The pressures change but the emotions linger...fear and doubt. They give a steady rhythm to our decision making process...or maybe it can be more accurately called our decision-stalling process. How I walk into these seasons of my life has been completely changed by the insight Pastor Don has been pouring into my life over the past year. I think you’ll feel the same after this episode.

Do you really need to know everything in this episode? That’s debatable. It’s a chance to take a breath, realize there’s room in your day to remember some things you’ve tried to forget - like my “I’m becoming an adult haircut” from my first year out of college - and admit you actually do have strong opinions about what should and should not have the word pumpkin on it. Coming up are just few things to put in your “I don’t know what to say right now so here is some random information” pocket on Did Anyone Tell You?
