It also means you are designed to reflect a creative God! When you work and create you’re living out your design. Your work, creation, and worship are all tied together. The daily dishes and sweeping after meals are the work of creating order. If we choose not to rush through our days with scrolls and swipes, then what we do is a reflection of God’s creation of order and is a form of worship.

I've briefly mentioned before that I had a crisis of faith soon after I had my first baby. I long story short, I threw away my Bible because learning who Jesus really was felt too overwhelming. A few months later God brought Nancy's "Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament" series to my attention. I used that to re-learn what I believed the Bible taught. At the time I wished she had some New Testament resources too. Since then she has written resources on Revelation and now Acts!
What ignited Nancy's passion for going deeper into the Bible
The whole Bible as the story of Jesus
How themes influence the way we read the Bible.
What stands out in Acts
You can find these resources by Nancy Guthrie:
The Biblical Theology Workshop
"Saved" a Bible study on Acts, or
connect with her on her website.

I hope understanding where this name comes from combined with this verse reminds you that you don’t have to sin or pull strings in order to have your needs met by God. He is a shelter for you. As you live in trust that God keeps his promises you live in the nearness of God. According to this verse, you will be close enough to be in his shadow.

Living in community with other believers is mentioned in scripture to help us grow in our faith. But culturally we are moving away from it are we losing anything?
Why are you so passionate about community that you've chosen to encourage people toward that for so many years?
What benefits do believers get from living in a community?
What does it look like to live in a community?
Does it have to be local, or can people do it online?
What do we lose if we don't have an in-person faith community?
What if I can't find a church or discipleship group that aligns with what I believe?

Our grief at death is often overwhelming. It’s because as humans we weren’t created to experience death. We were created to exist in a world of eternal fellowship with God and perfect relationships with others. The fall marred the blueprint for our existence in a horrific way.

I thought parenting would be easy. I read all the books looking for the perfect formula and became more and more frustrated that I wasn't being given one. I realized with time each child is so individual that even if someone offered me a formula it wouldn't work. I then entered a phase of overwhelm and fear.
Has flourishing always defined your family, or was there a time of desperation for you?
How does seeing our failures in our kids help us lean more into Jesus?
You talk about framing the concept of obedience in trust. How does that change the way we view our children's behavior and our reaction to their behavior?
What do we do with the guilt when we don't respond in an ideal way?

This blessing is a reminder of God’s presence with his people. Even though sin broke the experience his physical presence with Adam and Eve in the garden. God wants us to know that he is present. He holds and keeps us, and with his presence is peace.

It’s easy to let our mental growth go on pause. Some of us who loved reading in high school go for years without reading a book.
We talk about holding space for our kids to create, learn, and explore, How do we reawaken that desire for ourselves?
There’s a concept in Charlotte Mason education that we are to expose our kids to many beautiful things so that their minds have a large room.

We try to DO a lot in life. We live in a culture that finds pride in being "busy." This trickles into our spiritual lives also. Often we don't see the rub until something comes along and knocks our feet out from under us. These end up being acts of grace where we truly understand Jesus' completed work for us.
Do you tend to be relaxed or more anxious and tempted by hustle culture?
What has Jesus' example in earthly ministry taught you about priorities for our earthly life? You lost someone at a young age, how did that change your perspective and priorities?
One of the greatest counterfeits to living like Jesus is trying to be like him without him.
How do we use our anxieties as a doorway to loving God?

We know that technically all Scripture is profitable, but it seems like some of it is more helpful than others. In Bible studies, we discuss what our favorite book of the Bible is and just sayin' Ezra and Numbers has never come up. Kristie is here to talk us into taking a peek into and fall in love with some of these more obscure Old Testament books.
How do we answer the question "What's your favorite book of the Bible?"
Why do you think we are automatically attracted to some books of the Bible and not others?
Why do you think people believe the books that fall within the law genre are difficult to understand?
Why do we need to understand the Old Testament in order to understand the New Testament? What richness do we risk not getting if we don't read the Old Testament?How do we lead others into loving the Old Testament?

For many of us doing “quiet time,” “Bible time,” or “Devotions” with our kids feels like an all-or-nothing experience. We have in our mind what we think it should look like, and if we fall short of that we just give up.

Many are living out the dream of adult life we had as children. Then some days stressor after stressor keeps piling on, until we wondered why this is something we ever even asked for. It can feel especially guilt-inducing when it involves being a parent to our children.
The feelings come up with the wish that we could quit motherhood. How do we give ourselves a time-out?
Quitting isn't really an option in motherhood, so what do we do after we've had that outburst, or even secret desire to quit? How does time with Jesus help?
What do we do with our guilt? How does social media contribute to comparison with mothers.
Seeing our struggle in motherhood as spiritual warfare that comes from doing deeply valuable work.

Fear of missing out is real and if we are honest it doesn't just affect teenagers. Many of us struggle with comparison and feel that everyone must be happier than we are. I related a lot to swirling thoughts keeping you awake. You've said FOMO is one of the main things that kept you awake at night! When did you first become aware of that tendency?
Why do you think so many of us struggle to process emotions? It's one thing to realize we need change... How did you start creating change in your life?
Something you said struck me... "Creativity combats comparison and leads to feelings of happiness." Can you tell us about that?
How has curiosity led to happiness for you?
It's vital to shift ourselves, but how can we also shift as communities?

Throughout history, we've been tempted to think of children as less than adults, but when Jesus came he turned that ideology on its head with his teaching. Jesus radically declared "Let the little children come to me, and do not forbid them." Today my guest and I are going to talk about what full inclusion for kids looks like in the body of Christ!
Where do we first see the idea of all human life being valuable to God?
Can you talk about some Old Testament examples of God using children, even though they would have been considered "lesser citizens?"
Why does Jesus' invitation to children matter?
How do we show our kids how valuable they are to the church, family, and kingdom?
How do we value the kids in our communities, and encourage our community to do the same?
