January 09, 2024An Introduction to Season 4: "My Peace I Give to You"
As I was praying over this next year of our time together, the one word the Lord continually pressed upon my heart was “peace.” I believe God wants to usher us into His peace this year. We'll learn if we want peace, we must get close to the source of peace, we must enter into the presence of peace. And, that, my friend, is what season 4 of The Good Day is all about. Today, we're talking about:
How do we experience God’s peace even when our circumstances are not peaceful?

Accessing the peace of Christ and what this means for us today

How can we become seekers and bestowers of peace?

December 26, 2023One Word-ish for 2023: Undistracted and Unoffended
What if I were to tell you instead of making goals and resolutions for the New Year, you simply take one or two weeks and choose one word. If faith guides you like it does me, I'd encourage you to pray about what this one word should be for you this year.In previous years, I've grown in areas of "authenticity" and been led in ways I never expected through "open" then "no." This last year, my word was "undistracted" but it grew to something more, much much more, something which inspired these tulips to be placed by my front door... Today, we're talking about:
An alternative to setting resolutions to help you grow this year

What living an undistracted life requires of us

A radical commitment which will change your life and impact all of your relationships for the better
