What if your title didn’t determine your calling?

I walk through the political context behind this passage and show how, in the ancient world, only kings were seen as the “image” of a god. But in Genesis, God flips the script and says every person is made in His image. That means you have been given divine authority and purpose—not someday, not if you get a title, but right now.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re really called, or felt like purpose is for someone else, this episode will remind you who you are and what you were made for.

Country music star and Grand Ole Opry member Craig Morgan shares an incredibly raw, honest, and ultimately hope-filled conversation with me about his journey. He opens up about how that painful season taught him that "sometimes our pain is for other people" and how God can bring purpose from our deepest valleys. This is a story about faith, family, and the amazing truth that even when we don't understand His plan, God's work is getting done through us. Let’s go to the Story House!

What if failure wasn’t the end—but the path forward? In this vulnerable and thought-provoking episode, Diane Boden returns to The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to discuss her bold decision to rebrand her long-running show Minimalist Moms into Clear Intentions. Together, Diane and Ginny Yurich explore the messy beauty of growth, identity, and the risk of shifting directions when something no longer fits—especially when you've built an entire identity around it. What does it mean to live intentionally in a culture that demands certainty and punishes change? Diane offers hard-earned insight into why it’s okay to pivot, to try again, and to hold purpose more tightly than pride.

They also dig into real-life intentional living—from screen time boundaries and Sabbath rhythms to wardrobe simplicity, parenting with presence, and preparing well for the end of life. This conversation is an invitation to be brave, to let go of what's extra, and to keep becoming—because, as Diane reminds us, iteration isn't failure. It's life.

What does it actually mean to love your neighbor—not in theory, but in the chaotic, disconnected world we live in today? In this thought-provoking conversation, Ginny Yurich welcomes sought-after Bible teacher and author Jada Edwards to discuss her new book, A New Way to Love Your Neighbor. Together, they explore how true love is more than politeness or random acts of kindness—it’s curiosity, courage, and a willingness to know both others and yourself more deeply. Jada offers practical and soul-shaping insights into loving when it’s hard, forgiving when it feels impossible, and letting go of the myth that the people who hurt us should be the ones to heal us.

This episode is an invitation to step beyond surface-level connection into something more meaningful and lasting. You’ll learn how divine imagination can reshape your empathy, how feedback can transform your relationships, and why knowing yourself is a vital part of loving others well. It’s honest, wise, and refreshingly actionable—perfect for anyone who wants to live out their faith through authentic, grace-filled relationships in everyday life.
