How do we get to know God? Just like in a relationship with a friend or a spouse, when you spend time with God, you listen to what he has to say. God gave us his word, the Bible, so that we can know him and his character. While studying scripture can seem daunting, Chad talks with Joe and Beth Ann about how meditating on God's word starts by us simply setting time aside to read the Bible. For whatever your time with God and his word looks like, we hope you are encouraged by today's conversation!

Do you ever feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? For most of us, we feel the weight of the world in our pockets, on our smartphones. An incredible piece of technology with nasty side effects, smart phones are ingrained into our culture and the way we communicate. But is this new communication really worth it? Joe and Beth Ann are joined by Adam Donyes, founder of Link Year, to talk about the dangers of smart phones and how you and your family can start having conversations about smartphones and real relationships.

This episode talks about the reality of some of the negative impacts Smartphones can have on individuals. As a result there are some mature topics covered that may not be suitable for a younger audience.

When you enter into a time of worship on Sunday at Church, where does your mind go? A worship service can be comprised of many different factors, including instruments, hymnals, or even just acapella voices. But worship is more than singing songs on Sunday. Worship is more than what, worship is about who. Joe and Beth Ann are joined by Nadia Cole as they discuss worshipping God not just with our voices in a church building, but with our hearts in whatever we do. We hope you are encouraged by the discussion and spurred on to meditate on God and his word.

You may have heard the saying, "misery loves company". Regardless of what season of life you are in, we are all familiar with pain and suffering. And when those seasons come, you might wonder how God can do good work in it. In today's episode, Joe and Beth Ann welcome John Jensen to share how God does not waste our pain and how the Holy Spirit gives us the strength to move forward. We hope you will be encouraged today with the message of God's love and sovereignty.

In a world where too much is never enough, it can feel impossible to pause to catch our breath. If you are a Christian, you know that God rested on the 7th day and made one of the Ten Commandments dedicated to keeping the sabbath day holy, but what does Biblical rest actually mean? What does resting in God look like? Brady White joins Joe and Beth Ann to discuss how we can find delight in God in all aspects and areas of our lives, just like Brother Lawrence discovered while washing pots and pans. We hope you are encouraged today as you listen!

Our earthly fathers are not perfect. Some have better fathers than others. There are many who have been hurt by their father or their father wasn't present. Regardless of who our earthly fathers were or what they did (or didn't do), our Heavenly Father will always be with His children. Through forgiveness, God brings joy and light to the dark places of our lives. Joe and Beth Ann are joined by Keith Chancey and special guest Nathan Brown to talk about fatherlessness and how our Heavenly Father can and will redeem our pain.
