Join us today as Brook, Phil, and Diane discuss their best daily habits. Spoiler alert: it’s reading their Bibles each day. Some stories and reflections are shared today about how God has transformed each of them over the years by reading the scriptures daily. Reading the Bible is not meant to be legalistic; God’s heart is an invitation, wanting to bless, meet, and help you. To keep it simple, they break it down into five different ways to read the scriptures. Enjoy!
5 different ways to read the scriptures:
*First, find a place you like to be in where you won't be interrupted. You may have to wake up earlier for this, so don’t forget your journal.
1) Read Prayerfully
2) Read Carefully
3) Read Humbly
4) Read Expectantly
5) Read Joyfully

Today, we talk all about time! We cover different topics like letting our dreams die. What does that process look like? How do we accept the pain of life effectively and fruitfully? What do we do in the waiting when one season has not yet come but one season has already passed? What’s the right time to let something painful go? When is it time to conquer the next mountain? We cover many questions like this and even more. Enjoy!

Today, we’re joined by Darren Whitehead to discuss his book, The Digital Fast. He highlights the crucial role of community in helping us break free from excessive phone use and invites us on a 40-day journey toward less digital noise and more spiritual peace. The average person spends 7 to 9 hours a day on their phone, and while we know it’s not a healthy habit, changing it can feel incredibly challenging—especially when we try to do it alone. In this conversation, we’ll explore the four key movements of the digital fast and how to rediscover joy and balance. Enjoy!
The 4 Movements:
1. Detach
2. Discover
3. Delight
4. Determine

You are in for a special treat; we did our first-ever live Q+R recording from the Motherhood retreat! We had hundreds of women send in questions from the weekend that touch on many deep topics like giving care before criticism, how to encourage your husband, is anything off-limits when you are lamenting with God, how to cut the deadly loop of envy, how to offer help to your friends in a way they can say yes and so much more. We hope you join us today for a tiny taste of our 2024 Intentional Motherhood retreat. Enjoy!

Get ready to take some notes with this conversation! We have Justin Whitmel Earley on the show today. Justin is a full-time lawyer, writer, speaker, husband, and father to four boys. Justin’s books, especially Habits of the Household, center around habit formation, how our habits affect our family and personal well-being, and the idea that things can change when we bring those habits into the light of the gospel. Join our conversation as we talk about tickle blessings, bedtime liturgy, new habit-forming tips, and how reconciliation is a gift God gives us, and we give to each other. Enjoy!

We have a guest on our show today who is going to help you lower your defenses when it comes to the topic of technology use while at the same time giving you tools and encouragement to build a healthy relationship with it. We are so pleased to have Joey Odom on the show. This conversation is rich, deep, intelligent, and packed with practical help. Get ready to laugh at some great stories, connect with relatable examples, and encourage you to take a step closer to a healthy relationship with technology for yourself and your kids.
3 things you can do today
1. Spend one hour physically distance from your phone a day (it’s a muscle to build)
2. In your home establish sacred times/places where you do not have your phones (either dinner table or kid's room)
3. Search for moments of connection with kids and spouse

Is it our responsibility to do it all? Is there a better way? We have ideals, sometimes we feel like it’s all up to us, other times we have fears that show up in our thoughts and responses and we don’t always see our limitations, especially with the perspective that they can be a gift to us. Join us today as we explore these 5 questions to ask yourself:
1: Is this Striving?
2: Is it fear?
3: Are we accepting our limitations and the limitations of our family?
4. Is it obedience?
5. is it yours to do?

What are the lies you are believing? On today's show, we walk through three common lies that many of us are prone to believe. We explore where lies entered our story as humans and how we can combat them. So often, our enemy carefully crafted the lies we hear for each of us. We hope today's conversation brings hope and healing to a lie you believe. Enjoy!
Three lies that we believe:
1) Our worth is based on what we can produce
2) I'm just a bad parent/human
3) It's all up to me
