Our Relationship with Time - Part 1
The way we interact with time impacts every aspect of our lives. Allen and Sam Eldredge kick off the series by looking at where our beliefs about time began.
Along the Journey
Join Stasi for this delightful conversation with her friend Yolanda Weinberger. Yolanda is a wise and passionate woman who loves Jesus deeply, and it is an honor to listen as she shares her story. Yolanda tells of how she has fallen more in love with Jesus through her daily rhythms, her parenting of adult children, and as she battled cancer. In all of it, Jesus has pursued her with his faithful love in a way she can recognize – in the language of her heart. God desires for each of us to draw closer to him, and we hope this conversation will inspire you to recognize his personal gifts to you as well as come to know his perfect peace in all of your circumstances.…..SHOW NOTES:…..CONNECT WITH YOLANDA:Facebook: https://wahe.art/3Nv4Hj6Instagram: https://wahe.art/3CS3DRrLinkdIn: https://wahe.art/3JzLQ5aRESOURCES:Pause App: One Minute Pause and 30 Days to Resilienthttps://www.pauseapp.com/…..Don’t Miss Out on the Next Episode – Subscribe for FreeSubscribe using your favorite podcast app:Spotify Podcasts – https://spoti.fi/42SsOipApple Podcasts – https://apple.co/42E0oZ1 Google Podcasts – http://wahe.art/3M81kxLAmazon Music & Audible – https://amzn.to/3M9u6hJ

Cultivating Beauty
One of the ways we experience God is through the beauty of his creation. Beauty heals. Beauty refreshes. Beauty puts our souls at rest. Beauty speaks hope. In today’s podcast, Stasi, along with Polly Dodge and Jamie Goudie of the Wild at Heart team, share the ways they cultivate beauty, and why choosing to look for beauty is so important. Jesus is Divine Beauty, perfect, alluring, and glorious. When we ask him, he will help us find beauty even in desolate places, surprising us with it in abundance, healing our hearts and opening us to receive even more of him.…..SHOW NOTES:…..VERSES: Matthew 5:48 (NIV) — Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.Song of Solomon 5:16 (NIV) — His mouth is sweetness itself; he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, this is my friend,daughters of Jerusalem.Psalm 27:4 (NIV) — One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.Isaiah 33:17(NIV) — Your eyes will see the king in his beauty and view a land that stretches afar.Psalm 45 (in its entirety, but here 45:1 [NIV]) — My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.Isaiah 43:19(NIV) — See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.…..OTHER RESOURCES:The Journey of Desire by John Eldredge – https://wahe.art/46qgloeBeginning quote by Jonathan Edwards from The Nature of True Virtue – https://wahe.art/3qY6HJe…..Don’t Miss Out on the Next Episode – Subscribe for FreeSubscribe using your favorite podcast app:Spotify Podcasts – https://spoti.fi/42SsOipApple Podcasts – https://apple.co/42E0oZ1 Google Podcasts – http://wahe.art/3M81kxLAmazon Music & Audible – https://amzn.to/3M9u6hJ

Sinking Into Grace
Friends, have you ever felt distant and disconnected from God? Of course, you have. You are not alone in that. But what then? In today’s podcast, Stasi reminds us of the good news: while our feelings may fluctuate, God remains constant and unchanging. Even when we feel like God is hiding from us, we can know that He will never turn His face away. It is in the hard seasons that we come to know God’s grace even more deeply, and can come to rest in the truth that though our experiences may change, our place in the heart of our King never does.…..SHOW NOTES:…..VERSES: Romans 8:28-39 (NIV) — And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. …Ephesians 3:16-19 (NIV) — I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.…..RESOURCES:Song: Sails (Live) by Pat Barret, Stephanie Gretzinger, and Amanda Cook — https://spoti.fi/42mOvG4Pause App: One Minute Pause and 30 Days to Resilent (Friends, go through week one especially, on Union with God.

Love Abounds
