Living & Working at God’s Pace of Grace
S10-E3: God Is the Goal, Not the Finish Line
We live in a world that prizes speed, outcomes, and measurable success. Even in our faith, it’s easy to chase good and God-honoring goals so hard that we quietly lose the God who gave them. In this episode, we explore what happens when the finish line replaces the...
S10-E2: The Art of Vine Making with Bette Dickinson
What if the most meaningful growth in your life and ministry happens not when you produce more, but when you slow down enough to be tended by God? In this episode, we explore a gentler, more sustainable way of living and serving as Bette Dickinson joins us to talk...
S10-E1: Why Did God Plant Me Here?
What if the goodness you’re longing for is already growing right where you are? This episode explores why God places us in certain seasons and how to recognize the quiet grace that’s already at work in your actual life, not the imagined one you wish you were living. ...
S9-E10: What to Keep, What to Release
Do you ever feel like you are carrying more than you were meant to hold? This episode is for the places where the weight shows up in your life. The extra roles, expectations, and commitments that once served you but now quietly drain you. We’ll talk about why...
S9-E9: When Activity Replaces Intimacy: An Invitation to a Year of Grace
Do you ever feel like you’re running faster and still falling further behind? For me, a peace lily in the corner of a sunroom once became a quiet picture of that feeling. On the outside, it stayed green, but underneath the surface the roots had no room left to...
S9-E8: Grace for the Distracted: God’s Greater Grace Series
What if our biggest distractions weren’t the real problem? Beneath every buzzing phone, late-night scroll, or extra trip to the fridge is something deeper we’d rather avoid. In this episode, we hear the surprising story of a Yale professor nearly undone by a pedometer...
S9-E7: 3 Things My Year of Prayer Changed in Me
What would happen if someone lived an entire year powered by prayer? That was the experiment that began ten years ago after a two-day flu forced an unexpected pause. Flat on the couch with nothing to do but think, the truth surfaced. The pace looked fine from the...
S9-E6: From Overwhelmed to At Rest: A Simple Shift
Do you ever wake up, glance at your phone, and feel the weight of the world before your feet even hit the floor? The headlines scream, the emails overflow, and suddenly your spirit feels overwhelmed. For years, I tried all the usual strategies. I shoved the feelings...
S9-E5: Don’t Quit in the Dip
We have all been there, starting something with excitement only to hit the wall of discouragement somewhere in the middle. The new routine gets old, the project loses steam, and even prayer can feel harder than it used to. In those moments, quitting can look easier...
S9-E4: Why Hard Things Help: The Power of Desirable Difficulty
We’ve all felt the sting of watching a leader fall. Someone whose public life seemed strong, but whose private foundation couldn’t hold the weight of it all. These collapses rarely come out of nowhere. More often, they’re the result of a slow, silent hollowing that...
