Living In the Garden

Hello sweet friends! We missed you! 

This week, we chat about the paradox that is worthiness and unworthiness. Our sin and fallen nature makes us rather unworthy, yet the fact that Jesus died for us to redeem us makes us so so worthy of the Father's great love for us, His beloved sons and daughters. 

Join us in the conversation as we talk about different areas where we encounter unworthiness and how we can speak some truth into those places of our heart. Also, feel free to pray with this quote from Fulton Sheen, “God loves you despite your unworthiness. It is His love which will make you better, rather than your own betterment which will make Him love you. Often during the day say, "God loves me and He is on my side, by my side.”" 

Remember, our worth must lie in Him! 

With other news, this is our last podcast of season 1! It has been such a joy and an honor to chat with you all each week and share how the Gardener has been working in our hearts. Being as the three of us are encountering a pretty busy season of life in these next couple weeks, we felt that we were worthy of a break. We will be back though soon with a lot of new stories, wisdom, and laughter! Thank you for your commitment to our podcast, and know of our prayers for you! 

God bless! 

Ch ch ch ch changes. 

Let’s be honest, none of us really enjoy encountering the various transitions and changes that life throws at us, but there is a way to handle all those changes with grace and intentionality! Join us this week as we journey through this season of transition.

As Isaiah 43:19 reminds us, “See I am doing something new! Now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? In the desert I make a way, In the wasteland, rivers.”

What is keeping you from perceiving the change that the Lord desires to make new in your life?

Here are the losses that Bill Bridges identifies with change. It can be helpful to identify them so that you can put a name to the feeling! 

Hello sweet friends! 

Join us this week as we chat about the power of your own personal witness and testimony. Your love story with Jesus is anything but insignificant and He desires for you to share your story with others. 

As we are reminded in 1 Peter 3:15, “Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope.” 

If you have never given a testimony before, be sure to check out Paul's testimony in Acts 22:6-21. He outlines his life before Christ, his encounter with Jesus, and his life thereafter. 

As always, know of our prayers for you! 

Calling all artists! 

We are made in the hands of Our Creator, which means that we, too, have this desire within us to create. Join us this week as we venture through some of John Paul II quotes from his work, Letter to Artists, and chat with two of our favorite artists. 

Here are some of his quotes to pray with this week: 

Through his “artistic creativity” man appears more than ever in the image of God.

All artists experience the unbridgeable gap which lies between the work of their hands and the dazzling perfection of the beauty glimpsed, the splendor which flared for a moment before the eyes of their spirit.

In shaping a masterpiece, the artist not only summons his work into being, but also in some way reveals his own personality by means of it.

How is your Creator desiring to reveal Himself to you this week? What does He want to reveal about who you are through His creation? 

Know of our prayers for you as you encounter the beauty this week. 

Hey friends, 

How many of you feel like you're constantly playing the defensive end of things with life? We have been there. We feel that. We know you. We see you. The fact of the matter is that you are worthy of planning out your day to do and ordering your day in an intentional way. 

Join us this week as we give some practicals for right ordering your days! 

Our bible verse that we are sitting with this week is from Ephesians 4:1 "I, then a prisoner of the Lord, urge you to live in a manner worthy of the call you have received." 

You are worthy dear friends. Know of our prayers for you as you enter into this intentional planning!
