Is Psalm 23 a little too familiar to you? 

Maybe you think, "Yeah, yeah, we're just like the sheep?" 

But what if this passage wasn't at all about the sheep? 

What if we're supposed to see something entirely different?

Do you feel like God sees you? Does it feel like you are living behind a wall that God has chosen to not step behind?

Maybe you feel like Sarai did, worried that God might not show up to keep His promises. Maybe to think, like Hagar, that God turned His back on you. 

No matter where you find yourself today, join me in studying Genesis 16.

God is inviting you to meet Him afresh in His Word.

What does the Bible say about our God Most High? As you look at Psalm 7, what else do you discover about God? What pattern do you see for confession? The motivation for living right before the Lord? Trusting Him as your rescuer and place of refuge? 

Yes, there is so much to learn. Join me in studying Psalm 7.

What do you think it looks like to simply be present with God?

Maybe you've been so caught up in the "doing" of your faith, you've lost sight of the relationship you can have with Him.

Well, it's time to get back to the basics, push off our misconceptions, and really get to encounter God this year together.

On this episode of the More to Be Podcast, we kick-off 2020 with Season 5 and a year-long focus on Encounter God Afresh. It's time to not only be in the Word but seek to know God's character through studying His names and attributes, so that we can trust Him more. It's about breaking our habits and rituals that have lost their meaning and seeking to be present in our relationship with God.

This vision overflows from my personal journey of faith along with so many things God is teaching me through certification I am pursuing as an equine-assisted coach. You'll get to hear a bit about the latest lessons at the end of this episode. Let's just say I've discovered the danger of being task-oriented! But that story comes after we dive into 1 Kings 8 and explore what it looks like to trust that all of God's promises as they are found in the Word hold true.

Don't you wish life would be a little less challenge?

Maybe you're still looking for the easy button, thinking that if you pray hard enough, long enough, the load will lighten up.

Or maybe you're ready to throw in the towel because endurance isn't your strong suit.

On this episode of the More to Be Podcast, Kalie Kelch and I wrap up season 4 with a chat about enduring well in the midst of struggle and trials. It's a rather appropriate ending of not only this season but also this year for me personally, with the loss of my father-in-law just before Thanksgiving.

Although we recorded this episode in the early fall, I only got around to editing it in early December at a time when I needed to hear the truths we spoke about . . . and I believe you may find the same is true for you.

I can look back and see how God was preparing me for what was to come with a deeply embedded reminder of Romans 5 and a fresh perspective on how to face the hard times.

I hope you have time to listen to our conversation as though you're sitting right with us and take courage to face your trials as part of becoming a woman who endures well.

Do you struggle to meet with God each day, feeling like the tyranny of the urgent is ruling your life?

Is getting into the Word something that you long for but can't quite find a routine that works for you?

Maybe you think that you'll be just fine on your own without personal study of Scripture?

This episode of the More to Be Podcast is filled with simple tips and practical strategies to shift your thinking and habits toward pursuing time with God each day and studying the Word for yourself. I'm joined by friend and fellow Bible study teacher, Asheritah Cuicui, for a heart-to-heart chat about integrating the discipline of daily Bible study into our morning routine.

Asheritah's recent book, Bible & Breakfast, will inspire and guide you into a new habit of connecting with God. Filled with yummy and healthy breakfast recipes (oh my, the chocolate granola) alongside thought-provoking devotions, you'll discover that God's Word is the best thing you can feast on each day, whether you're a busy mama, working woman, or savoring a slower season in life. You can get a sneak peek of it at BibleandBreakfast.com and connect with Asheritah at OneThingAlone.com.

Is grumbling the tone of your heart and home?

Maybe that's a habit you've inherited. Maybe it's one that has been triggered by life's trials.

No matter what has caused the grumbling, you can make strides toward a grumble-free life and cultivate a new culture in your home.\

On this episode of the More to Be Podcast, I'm joined by my friend, Tricia Goyer, who offers us such a fresh perspective on parenting through the grumbles with a new vision. You might have heard her on the podcast before as we chatted about anger. Tricia has plenty of real-life experience dealing with anger and the grumbles, as she is the homeschool mom of ten, a doting grandma, and wife to John. In her latest book, The Grumble-Free Year, Tricia invites us to experience the lessons learned through a twelve-month journey with her family to bring an end to grumbling.

This episode is packed full of practical application, as I share what I've learned in my trauma-focused equine-assisted therapy course about the brain and offer you a new way to respond to grumpy and angry emotions in yourself and your kiddos. We also walk through the Scriptures, especially Mark 4, considering the Parable of the Sower . . . a.k.a. . . . mother. This episode will most definitely help think biblically and consider the transformation steps God is leading you to embrace in your life.
