The conclusion. Douglas Kaine McKelvey, author, in "The Wingfeather Tales," edited by Andrew Peterson.

What is a place you'd rather not go? One that sounds nearly unbearable. The DMV? The school pick-up line?  What about going into a serious medical diagnosis or a financial crisis?  Following Jesus is no safeguard against difficulty in life. God may give you an assignment that feels impossible and overwhelming. That is where my guest this week, mom and author/speaker Cari Trotter, found herself in early 2021.  But what Cari also found in those hellish months following a difficult diagnosis echoed what concentration camp survivor Victor Frankl says, “Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose.”  Cari's life shifted in an instant and her identity, health, and expectations of the future shifted too. But she found a solid rock to anchor to in her relationship with God - wherever he was leading her. However dark or lonely the path she was never alone. Her meaning and purpose were not gone because the Lord was her strength and her song. She is right where she belongs.  Connect with Cari Trotter:  Website:  https://www.caritrotter.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/caritrotter1  Instagram:  @cari.trotter  Twitter: @caritrotter  Links Mentioned:   Struck: One Christian's Reflections on Encountering Death by Russ Ramsey Every Moment Holy, Volume I: New Liturgies for Daily Life by Douglas Kaine McKelvey    Related Episodes: Two Questions for a Glorious Becoming :: Cari Trotter [Ep 40] Week Six Summer of Mentorship 2020 :: Stacey Thacker  You Are Never Alone :: Max Lucado [Ep 298] Featured Sponsors:  Find links to this week's sponsors and unique promo codes at dontmomalone.com/sponsors.

Short story written by Douglas Kaine McKelvey called "The Places Beyond the Maps," from Andrew Peterson's (editor), "Wingfeather Tales: Seven Thrilling Stories from the World of Aerwiar."

How do we find time to build prayer into our busy lives? How do we train our eyes to recognize the Holy amidst the mundane and the ordinary? "When I opened the pages of Every Moment Holy, I found beautiful, simple prayers for specific moments of my daily life,” our guest recalls. “From morning coffee to changing a diaper, as well as prayers for gardening, grieving, or welcoming a new pet to the family. The prayers in this little book have blessed me time and again. Whether praying alone or with others, Every Moment Holy connects me to the sacredness of everyday moments.    Our guest for this episode is Leslie Eiler Thompson, who's creative pursuits take many forms – from podcast hosting & producing, to storytelling & writing, to owning a creative consulting studio.

She is also co-host of Church Historia, which explores various threads of Christian church history.     A fan of carefully crafted words, one of Leslie's top book recommendations is Every Moment Holy: New Liturgies for Daily Life by Douglas McKelvey.

Motherhood is hard and can bring us to our knees asking God for a different way, an easier. Jesus was familiar with this request as he pleaded with God in the Garden of Gethsemane. Both our struggle and Jesus' find their roots in a different garden, the Garden of Eden.  References: "The Pain in Childbearing" by Tim Challies, https://www.challies.com/articles/pain-in-childbearing/ Treasuring Christ When Your Hands Are Full by Gloria Furman Every Moment Holy by Douglas Kaine McKelvey   Learn more about me at https://www.lyssastoyko.com/ Want to say hello?

My sister, Kimberly Taylor, takes the mic today to share encouragement for our ordinary, mundane, routine moments of motherhood. As she says, "Be encouraged, Mama. Your work is purposeful. Whatever work you have in front of you today, look beyond the physical and temporal and see into eternity- that this simple, menial task “might sit upstream the changing of a heart” and “the changing of a heart might sit upstream the changing of the world.” The prayer that she reads is "A Liturgy for Changing Diapers" from Every Moment Holy by Douglas Kaine McKelvey.

This year, I started a monthly series where I share some of the books have been so very meaningful and transformative to me. Ones that will either invite you to step closer to the Lord or ones that equip you to better care for those around you who are hurting. This month, I would like to offer you a prayer book. Written prayers can help us discover words stirring within us when we can't find the words on our own, and they also unite us with other believers throughout time and space. There are many prayer books available, and I definitely encourage you to find one that resonates with your heart and soul—not just the concepts that are presented, but the language that is used. The one I turn to most often in this season has been Every Moment Holy, by Douglas Kaine McKelvey. Tune in to find out why this is my book recommendation for February.

Today we chat with author, lyricist, and screenwriter Douglas Kaine McKelvey on the second volume of his books Every Moment Holy: Death, Grief, and Hope. But in case you think this conversation is about nothing but grief and death and loss, it's actually infused with joy. That's really the thread of our whole interview today – how joy and sorrow are intertwined, how we can hold them both and experience them both, sometimes back-to-back, how we can mourn with those who mourn and rejoice with those who rejoice (Romans 12:15), and how we can walk in the maturity of growth in Christ to be able to experience both joy and sorrow throughout the trials and everyday happenings of our lives. For even amidst hardship, pain, and confusion, the rock-hard truth of God's goodness shines through, making every moment holy.

From gift guides to Instagram Ads, to those Amazon kids toy magazines, to Black Friday deals—everyone right now is telling us that we should be buying more, that we should have more, that we should be dressing in cuter clothes and decorating more perfectly. And today, I just want to be a voice that says: You don't. You don't! You don't have to buy all of those things. You don't have to do more. The good stuff, the really good stuff of this holiday season, is found in the quiet, grateful moments.

The big story of work, from creation to corruption to new creation. Song by Wendell Kimbrough, Paul Zach, and Isaac Wardell Prayer by Douglas Kaine McKelvey

In this episode, we are going to go through a liturgical prayer together that was written for those who have experienced a loss and are about to leave that time of marked grieving and return to daily living. To go back to school, back to work. To start paying the bills again or resuming whatever schedule we had prior to the loss. It is a difficult season to be in—still grieving, yet required to step back into life. I know that so many of you have experienced loss recently—whether that was the loss of a loved one, job loss, loss of friendship, or loss of dreams you once held close. This liturgy is for you. Don't get lost in the word “liturgy.” It's just a term for a form of public worship. A ritual. In this case, a prayer. So I will pause for a moment here as we begin, and I invite you to quiet the space around you, and quiet the space inside of you. If you need more time, just pause the podcast until you are ready to continue. I'll leave a moment of silence at the end, as well. Just stay there with the Lord until you feel freedom to go back about your day. Kari   *The liturgical prayer is pulled from “Every Moment Holy” Volume II by Douglas Kaine McKelvey. It is not cited in its entirety, so please see the book for the full prayer.   >> Soul Care Group: Monthly email with soul care practices http://lovedoesthat.org/soulcaregroup >> Written Spiritual Direction: Recognizing God's presence in the midst of our pain http://lovedoesthat.org/spiritualdirection   WHAT HAPPENS WHEN GOD GOES SILENT? As an introvert, silence is your strength. You cherish quiet moments. Time alone replenishes your soul like nothing else can. But what happens when God goes silent? When you raise your questions of grief and hurt and doubt—and He doesn't answer? Dear one, what if your very quietness has positioned you to experience the presence of God in a totally new way? What if in these seasons of silence, God is actually speaking to you louder than He has ever spoken to you before? If you ready to press into God in this season of silence, I invite you to fill out the form at lovedoesthat.org/apply. I use a modern-day letter writing style of spiritual direction perfect for Christian women drawn to quiet spaces and written words. Throughout our correspondence, I will compassionately listen to your story, gently ask questions that point you to God, and help you discover personal spiritual practices that invite you to stay close to Him. Start now at lovedoesthat.org/apply.

To come alongside someone on their journey of suffering is an honor and sacred ground. In today's podcast, Stasi is joined by her friend Gayleen Gardner who has traveled this road with many. Gayleen shares tangible ideas she has learned through her own battle with cancer as well as holy stories of walking beloveds up to the doorway of Heaven. Gayleen offers ideas of how to love, encourage, and bring hope as people move from life to Life.Show Notes:Verses: John 14:3 (KJV) — And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself Resources:Every Moment Holy, Vol. 2: Death, Grief, & Hope by Douglas Kaine McKelvey; Reading from pg. 113 — A Liturgy for Beginning a Bedside VigilAll Things New by John EldredgeHeaven: A Comprehensive Guide to Everything the Bible Says About Our Eternal Home by Randy AlcornMinistry for gift boxes of hope: Endurance with Jan & Dave Dravecky

Jamie Goudie joins Stasi in the studio for a conversation about inviting our beautiful God into the ordinary ins and outs of our days. Beauty matters to God, and as we practice opening our hearts to him amidst the messy and the mundane, we quickly discover that God cares about the details of our humanity and is available to us in every moment of our lives. SHOW NOTES: Scripture: Psalms 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. Galatians 2:20 (NIV): I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

This episode is posting later than usual (life went a little wonky the past 3 days), and it is not my normal episode. I simply wanted to take a small amount of time to encourage everyone to take an information break and soak in some quiet and peace. I am reading from the book, "Every Moment Holy" by Douglas Kaine McKelvey and I think everyone should have this book at the ready on their bookshelf. I hope you are blessed.

This resource includes three prayers: one for morning, another for midday (7:59), and the last for evening (11:57). The prayers will follow a consistent pattern each week with new scriptures every day. This week, we begin a new rhythm, carrying the same prayers with us through the entire week. How might we experience the presence of the Lord more deeply as we steep ourselves in the same passage and prayers throughout the week? This practice of the Daily Office will help us live more fully in God's loving presence as we navigate this time of fear, anxiety, and uncertainty. The midday prayer comes from Douglas Kaine McKelvey. http://dev.practicetribe.com/dailyoffice/

Ever since Christmas, we've been using, "Every Moment Holy" as our morning devotional. Today we're sitting down with it's author, Douglas McKelvey to discuss how he wrote this collection of prayers and liturgies.
