This has been strong in my heart this week. God is inviting us into a new season. For some, it has to do with natural shifts–jobs, relationships, living situations, etc. It also pertains to a new depth of intimacy with the Lord. Whether you have felt stuck in the mundaneness of life, been overwhelmed with busyness, or are in a time of comfort and peace, this word is for you. Come, turn aside to see what the Lord wants to say to you.

God is inviting you into a rhythm of life that transforms you at the deepest level. When I accepted this invitation from the Father, it literally changed my life, and I believe it will change yours too.

This is one of the longest episodes I've done but it is so good! I could have talked to my guest, Laura Duncan, for hours about connecting to our hearts, showing ourselves compassion, and healing emotional pain. I hope you will be as blessed as I was.  Laura Duncan is a life consultant out of Redding, California. She is passionate about helping people heal from emotional pain through the art of self compassion. Through workshops, retreats, and one-on-one appointments, Laura teaches people the tools they need to work through their triggers and connect with their hearts. Her goal is to help each individual engage the world from their true self: clear minded, tender hearted, and at peace.

This is part two of living in face-to-face relationship with the Lord. Through an encounter in Exodus ch. 33, I was ushered into a new understanding of the power of His presence in the midst of darkness. I pray this episode will be a blessing to you!

Recently, I've been drawn to an old Don Potter song, "Show me your face, Lord," and He has recked me in the best possible way. I believe the Lord is inviting us into a lifestyle of living face-to-face. Let's talk about that today!

If you'd like to worship with the Upperroom's incredible version of the song, here is the link: Show me your face, Lord.

Is love leading your relationship with God or is something else? Let's talk about how religion has snuck into a relationship that is meant to be beautiful, meaningful, and freeing. Let's break free from religion in a way we may not have known we needed to.

Today, Gretchen leads you through an encounter that unlocks that chains of fear and anxiety. 

In this episode, we encounter the Lord together so that He can do a deeper work of healing in our hearts. 

We all get tempted with fear, worry, and stress. Perhaps, like me, you get tempted to FIX the things (or people) that feel out of control. However, the Lord wants us free from carrying the heavy burden of trying to be a rescuer because He is the TRUE RESCUER! Today, I unpack an encounter I had with Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, one of the most powerful encounters I've ever had. Love is running to YOU today to rescue you and set your heart free!
