Lately, I've been wondering—am I really praising God in my everyday life? Not just in the big, beautiful moments, but in the small, mundane ones too?When I'm buying used furniture, packing for a trip, finishing my 2024 financials, or decluttering my space—am I recognizing His presence? When I see a blue heron by the water, the way the clouds shift, or the birds singing like it's spring—am I pausing to give Him praise?This week, I'm reminding myself to slow down, savor the people around me, and trust God in the details—even in things like getting Selah's Retreat ready to rent or finding the right front entrance table.In this episode, we'll reflect on scriptures like Psalms 150:6, 1 Chronicles 16:32, and Isaiah 42:12, and talk about how all of creation praises Him—so why shouldn't we?If you've been feeling rushed, overwhelmed, or just need a fresh perspective, let's take a deep breath together. Every moment is a chance to glorify Him.

Today, Pastor Dan explores the concept of Epiphany, starting with the familiar story of the wise men visiting Jesus as recorded in Matthew 2:1-12. As we read the scripture, we delve into the recurring theme of epiphanies throughout the Bible, particularly in the life of Jesus. Epiphanies are moments of divine revelation, where the ordinary encounters an extraordinary presence, and we seek to recognize these in our daily lives. Through biblical stories, such as Jesus' presentation at the temple and his early life experiences, we see how these occurrences drive home the nature of Christ as the Son of God and his purpose. We are encouraged to intentionally seek epiphanies in our own lives, staying focused on our spiritual journey and recognizing moments of sanctification as they occur. Join us as we commit to a year of spiritual growth, prioritizing interactions with God, and experiencing the profound presence of the divine in the simplest of moments.

Have you ever thought about how one day, we'll experience something for the very last time—without even realizing it? Maybe it's the last time we take a walk outside, share a laugh with someone we love, or enjoy a simple, everyday moment. I've been reflecting on this idea a lot, especially as I've watched my dad's health journey. There was a day that was his last time walking outside unassisted, his last time cooking for himself, and his last time moving around freely. None of us knew it would be the last (but here's hope for a better tomorrow!). In this episode, I also talk about how life and relationships can change, and how we often don't know when our last conversation or moment together might be. Life is full of these quiet, final moments, and I want to help us all reflect on how we can cherish them while we still have them.

In this episode of What's God Got To Do With It?, Leanne explores a question that many of us quietly ponder: “Is God really in the small stuff?” While it's easy to see God's presence in big miracles or during tough times, what about the mundane moments of our daily lives—like washing dishes, taking a walk, or sitting in traffic? Leanne shares personal stories and biblical insights to show how God is present in the smallest details of our lives, and how we can start noticing Him in those seemingly ordinary moments. She provides practical steps to invite God into our everyday routines, helping us see that nothing is truly “mundane” when God is involved. From starting your day with gratitude to setting divine reminders, this episode will inspire you to find the sacred in the simple and appreciate the divine in the day-to-day. If you've ever wondered how to see God beyond the obvious, this episode is for you. Tune in and discover how to turn your everyday moments into encounters with God.

In this episode of Reading with Your Kids, we had the pleasure of chatting with two amazing children's book authors - Morgan Christie and Sarah H. Fowler. Buckle up, because these conversations were packed with insights on the power of literature to bring us together. First up, we met Morgan Christie, the author of the beautiful picture book "I Too Am Here." Morgan shared how this story was inspired by a poem from the legendary Langston Hughes, exploring themes of identity, belonging, and the immigrant experience. We had a great discussion about the importance of recognizing our shared humanity, even when our backgrounds and cultures may differ. Morgan's passion for using books to foster empathy and understanding really shone through. Next, we welcomed Sara H. Fowler, the creative mind behind "Castle of Knots." This delightful book takes a common parenting struggle - brushing tangled hair - and transforms it into a whimsical fairy tale. Sara's insights on the joys and challenges of parenthood really resonated, and we talked about the value of finding the magic in everyday moments.  But the conversation didn't stop there! We also touched on the critical role of early literacy initiatives, like the "1000 Books Before Kindergarten" program, in supporting young readers. Hearing about Sara's daughter's experience with this initiative was a heartwarming reminder of the power of reading to shape young minds. Whether you're a parent, educator, or simply a lover of great stories, this episode of Reading with Your Kids is sure to inspire and delight. So grab a cozy spot, pour yourself a cup of tea, and get ready to dive into the wonderful world of children's literature!

Good morning, everyone! In today's episode, I shared a profound realization I had during my morning walk. Despite the rain, I found myself deeply grateful for the simple invention of the umbrella, which led me down a rabbit hole of thoughts about gratitude for everyday items and experiences. I discussed how ordinary events, like making a smoothie, can foster gratitude and happiness. By dissecting the components of my smoothie, I realized the immense journey each ingredient takes to reach me, from the blueberries sourced from Maine to the Vitamix blender and the electricity that powers it. This reflection made me appreciate the interconnectedness of everything in my life. I also shared personal anecdotes from my time deployed and a missionary trip to rural Africa, highlighting how these experiences taught me to appreciate simple luxuries like showers. These moments of gratitude have helped me cultivate a mindset of contentment and joy. I emphasized the importance of using daily practices to foster gratitude, which in turn enhances life satisfaction, emotional resilience, and positive relationships. By shifting our focus to the positive and being present in the moment, we can find happiness in the simplest of things. I encouraged listeners to experiment with acts of kindness and mindfulness, such as allowing someone ahead in line or paying for a stranger's coffee, without expecting anything in return. These small actions can promote a sense of abundance and joy. Lastly, I updated everyone on my well-being challenge, sharing my progress with step counts, journaling, and reflections. I am excited to see how this journey unfolds over the next 30 days. Thank you all for being here and allowing me to share this time with you. I hope you find these insights helpful and that they bring more happiness and gratitude into your lives.
