Friend, I pray this encourages you to sit at the feet of Jesus. Few things are needed, or indeed only one.

38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”

41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”

Luke 10:38-41

KATIE BLACKBURN. YOU GUYS. This gal is the real deal. What do I mean by the real deal? Well, I walked away from this conversation so refreshed and encouraged. This gal's humility, honesty, joy, warmth...I could feel the fruit of the Spirit through the screen while chatting with her. So I guess what I mean by the real deal is that this gal depends on the LIVING GOD. And it was evident. This was one of my favorite convos to date and I can't wait for you to be spurred on by what God has done and is doing in her life!!! Enjoy!!!

We survived (and might I say thrived...well, some of the days!!) our first year of homeschooling! And I kind of loved it. A lot. Yes, I was someone who said they would NEVER homeschool. Well, God always does something with our "nevers" doesn't He!

We are currently doing a hybrid homeschool classical education model with our oldest, Zan. We are just a mere one year in! There is no expert status here! (nor will there ever be!) In this episode I walk through what the classical education model is (7:01), what hybrid homeschooling is (22:30), how we found ourselves homeschooling (26:47), what our day-to-day looks like homeschooling (34:38), rhythms we have implemented (that now are just a part of our life!) (40:58), and at the end I answer some questions you guys had about it all (54:12)! Ultimately, my prayer is that this episode and information is helpful for you as you're sifting through with the Lord what direction He may be specifically leading you + your family in!

This conversation stirred me up and freed me up!!! Gosh, I can't wait for you to hear Courtney encourage us in our work for the Lord. She is a wife, mama and serves as the Director of Ministry Content for an organization called Women & Work which exists to see women confidently step into their God-given calling and view their work as meaningful to the Kingdom of God. She is passionate about that, along with discipleship and theologically equipping women– y'all are going to love this conversation!!! Enjoy!

Okay, I just got straight counseled for an hour 40!!! What a gift this conversation was with Ben Hamilton. Ben is a husband, father, and the Director of Care at a church here in Omaha called Citylight. We talk about caring for one another, empathy, listening, their journey with infertility, and so much more. So many golden nuggets of wisdom from Ben in this one!!! I left this conversation changed!!! Enjoy!

Josh and Katie Walters are GOLD!!!! Oh my goodness. I adored this conversation. Josh and Katie are parents to 7 beautiful children. Josh pastors at Seacoast Church in South Carolina while Katie is an author + speaker + runs their home and is the founder/visionary of Francis + Benedict. Their book, New Marriage Same Couple: Don't Let Your Worst Days Be Your Last Days, is out! After walking through something that should have destroyed their marriage, God redeemed and restored it to better than it was before like only God can! I've been impacted by this thriving marriage for years now on the internet and getting to chat with them was such a treat. Jesus exudes out of both of them. You guys are going to be so impacted by their story.  Enjoy!

It was SUCH a joy to chat with Cheyenne Boluyt. She is a mother of three girls and the Director of Women's Ministry at her church in Michigan. She shares about God meeting her in the darkest time of her life through His Word and His people and I won't ever forget what she shared. She is also passionate about bible literacy, cultural analysis(what are you worshipping?), and lament as the path to joy. This gal loves God and that is evident!!! I'm so excited for you to hear this episode! Enjoy!

Today's conversation with Colin Provart has been one of my favorite conversations to date!!! This dude gets me fired up about God and His mission. Colin and his bride, Rachel, reside in Colorado, where he is the Salt Director (College Ministry) at Storyline Church. Gosh, we cover so much.  Biblical literacy, suffering well, God's providence, and more.

God has also made Colin passionate about helping people discover who God has made them to be and training them to be great at that-- both within and outside the church! He walks us through super helpful tools and questions. Y'ALL IT WAS SO HELPFUL. You do not want to miss this episode! Grab and pen and paper, you'll want to take notes! Enjoy!
