We've practiced Sabbath more than three hundred times now, and the strangest part is what it taught us. Not how to relax — we're still bad at that — but how to trust. In this episode we talk about what it means to set your tools down one day a week (and how to know what your tools even are), the two sneaky ways we get rest wrong, and why the days that weren't restful still did their work. Plus the manna in the wilderness, and what it has to do with your laundry. If you love what we do and want more behind-the-scenes fun, bonus episodes, and exclusive content, join the walk in love.

Everybody knows the Proverbs 31 woman — the one who does it all, makes it all, and somehow makes the rest of us feel three steps behind. She's become a meme, a guilt trip, a Pinterest board. So this week we did something kind of embarrassing: we actually read her. And it turns out the 1950s sandwich-making housewife everyone pictures isn't in the text at all. The first word said about her is a warrior word. She runs a business. She laughs at the future. She might not even be a literal woman — she might be wisdom herself. This is Part 1: what she's not, and our first real look at what she actually is. Next week, we go in verse by verse.

It's TJ's birthday, so we're doing a year in review — not the highlight-reel kind, the real kind. We go back through everything one ordinary year actually held: the chaos, the milestones we forgot about, the quiet shifts that don't announce themselves. What changed, what surprised him, what he's done worrying about, and what he wants to carry into 41. If you've ever hit a birthday and realized a whole year went by while you weren't looking, this one's for you. Come look back with us.

We have a whole language for the gift of motherhood — soak it up, you were made for this, it's sacred even when it's invisible. We've barely written one for fathers. In this episode we name some of the things we wish more dads actually heard: that you were made for this even when you haven't figured it out, that the weight you carry is real even when no one calls it that, that you're not the backup parent or the helper but a teammate standing beside. It's honest, it's a little funny, and it ends with a liturgy for the one who walks beside us. If you're a dad, this one's for you. If you're not — it might be the one you send.

What started as a family movie night pick turned into a much bigger conversation. Not about politics. Not about hidden messages. Not about whether a movie is “appropriate.” Just a simple question: Why are so many kids movies… bad? In this members episode, we're talking about the difference between a movie being entertaining and a movie actually being good. We explore what we call the “minionization” of kids entertainment, why we've lowered the bar for children's media, and why stories matter more than we often realize. Because just like we care about what our kids eat, read, and learn, maybe it's worth thinking about what they're watching too If you love what we do and want more behind-the-scenes fun, bonus episodes, and exclusive content, join the walk in love.

San Diego pays the second-highest electricity rates in the United States, trailing only Hawaii, and peak-hour pricing from 4 pm to 9 pm runs up to triple morning rates. In this episode, Tim Montague sits down with Rod Matthews, President of Brevian Energy, a North County San Diego developer focused on solar, battery storage, and community microgrids. Brevian works with Community Choice Aggregators to deliver behind-the-meter solar and storage at no upfront cost to commercial property owners. Tim and Rod cover the Clean Energy Alliance Solar Plus Battery program, a 25-year power purchase agreement with a 1% annual escalator and lease payments to the host site. Here's what you'll learn in this conversation about California microgrids and community solar:You'll learn how the Clean Energy Alliance Solar Plus Battery program gives commercial property owners with 15,000 square feet of rooftop or 25 carport spaces a 25-year power purchase agreement at a 1% annual escalator with no upfront cost. Property owners also receive lease payments escalating at 2% per year, outpacing energy cost increases.Learn about how California's 4 pm to 9 pm peak window changes the math on storage. Rates during those hours run up to triple morning rates, so dispatching from the battery during peak makes projects pencil out in SDG&E territory, the second most expensive utility market in the US behind Hawaii.Understand how a closed landfill in Chollas View, San Diego, will host 10 megawatts of solar and 40 megawatt hours of lithium iron phosphate storage to serve 25,000 homes with at least 20% utility bill savings. Local residents become co-owners through a Special Purpose Vehicle for as little as $100 per share.Learn why community buy-in determines whether brownfield and microgrid projects move forward.Energy prices are climbing as data center demand grows and natural gas prices spike on global tensions. California's duck curve makes evening storage the limiting factor for further solar adoption. This episode shows a working model for solving both problems at commercial scale and at the community level.Connect with Rod MatthewsRod Matthews: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodmatthews/Brevian Energy: https://www.brevianenergy.com/ Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

Most of life isn't shaped by big, life-altering decisions—it's shaped by the hundreds of small ones you make every single day. In this episode, we talk about the invisible load—the constant, ongoing responsibility of noticing, deciding, adjusting, and carrying the details of everyday life. The kind of work that rarely gets acknowledged because it's never fully finished. We explore how this weight often looks different depending on your role. For some, it's a handful of large, obvious responsibilities. For others—especially within the home—it's hundreds of small ones that never quite leave your mind. Same weight. Different shape. And because it's harder to see, it's easier to dismiss—even by the person carrying it. This conversation puts language to that experience: why it feels so heavy, why it's so hard to explain, and why it matters more than we realize. At the end, Brooke reads A Liturgy for the Invisible Load—a grounding reminder that some of the most meaningful work we do… is the work no one sees.

This episode is, shockingly, mostly about water—how much we need it, how often we forget that, and why it matters more than we'd like to admit.Somewhere in the conversation we also end up drafting a very unofficial Mt Rushmore of celebrity colonial ship crew to honor one full year of Naughty Nation!

Members Episode: Traveling in Real TimeInstead of a single, sit-down conversation, this one is made up of voice memos recorded in real time—back to back, across multiple days—while traveling. Some were recorded in the car. Some in quiet moments. Some mid-thought. All of them exactly as they happened.If you're listening as a member, you're essentially walking through the trip alongside me, day by day.If you've ever wanted to know what it sounds like inside someone's head while life is actively happening, this episode is that.
Brooke got invited on a last-minute week in Florida… and somehow the answer was just: yes. In this no-notes hang, we talk spontaneous trips on a real-life budget, Daisy's big emotions (and the surprisingly helpful insight underneath them), and TJ's winter struggle to get out of bed—plus the weird little device he's trying to fix it. Also: airplane snack drafts, snowblower angels, and why travel turns Brooke into a sandwich person.

Most families aren't held together by big systems or perfect routines—they're carried by a handful of quiet, steady rhythms doing the heavy lifting. In this episode, we talk about how to identify the rhythms that keep a family functioning when energy drops, motivation fades, or attention is focused elsewhere. We explore decision fatigue, load-bearing habits, floors versus ceilings, and how to strengthen what's already working—without reinventing your life.

For some reason, our podcast host is having issue with video files so if you want video, go to youtube. Most of life isn't the beginning or the big finish—it's the long, regular middle. In this episode, we talk about why the middle feels extra exhausting right now (hello, montage culture), how “instant everything” trains us to expect quick results, and why that quietly makes real life feel like we're doing it wrong. We also get honest about what happens when you start believing the middle is a problem to solve… and what changes when you realize it's actually a place to live faithfully. Plus: the Great Pizza Price Uprising of 2026, a Mount Rushmore pizza draft, and a suspiciously strong desire to swim in the reflecting pool for the right price.

*Tried to upload video three times and it just wouldn't work. Every year we tell ourselves this will be a simple recap episode. Sponsored by The Liturgy Club - https://shop.walkinlove.com/products/liturgy-club Every year… we're wrong. What starts as “let's look back” quietly becomes something else entirely—less highlight reel, more meaning-making. In this episode, we're not naming the best things of 2025. We're naming the things that stayed. The shows that lived in our house. The music playing in the background of real life. The moments that shaped us, whether we planned for them or not. We talk about the TV shows that surprised us, comforted us, or kept us up too late. The music that soundtracked ordinary days and emotional moments. The movies we're still referencing without even realizing it. Then we get to our anchor segment: our Mount Rushmore of 2025. Not the biggest things. The defining things. Four moments and shifts that formed the year—some joyful, some heavy, all honest. From there, we zoom out. One word for the year. One sentence that sums it up. One thing that ended. One thing that quietly began. We share the biggest lessons we learned—some the hard way, some by finally stopping the fight—and what surprised us most about ourselves, our kids, our marriage, and our capacity. And as always, we close slowly. With gratitude. With honesty. With permission for end-of-year feelings to be complicated. If you're feeling tender, tired, relieved, proud, disappointed—or all of it at once—this episode is for you. Thanks for being here. Thanks for listening. Thanks for being part of this year with us. 2026… here we come. If you love what we do and want more behind-the-scenes fun, bonus episodes, and exclusive content, join the walk in love.

Remaining items we have for sale - https://shop.walkinlove.com/ This week's episode is intentionally light as we head into Christmas Day. We're recording from our new basement studio for the first time, talking about what Christmas morning will actually look like for our family, the traditions we're keeping (and tweaking), and why staying home all day has become our favorite move. We do What I Googled, share a few Strong Feelings (including full commitment to cookie content season), build a Mount Rushmore of things we wanted in our stockings as kids—and still want now—and absolutely lose it laughing over a story about a koala living in a swamp. It somehow involves panic, running away very fast, and possibly pooping your pants. We could not recover. If you want something easy, familiar, and fun in your ears this week, this one's for you.

Some seasons feel like they're unraveling faster than we can keep up—new jobs, new rhythms, new roles, new places. But the hardest part isn't always the change itself… it's the tension between what was and what's not yet here. Today we're talking about how to hold that tension without needing to solve it right away, and what it looks like to trust God in the middle, when the story's still being written.
In today's episode, we're talking about the almost feeling of August. Summer's not quite over, school hasn't quite started—but rhythms are calling. We're walking through seven questions we're asking ourselves as we get ready for a new homeschool year, a new house, and a whole lot of transition. Whether you're excited, overwhelmed, or somewhere in between, this episode is your permission to ease back into rhythm without trying to nail it all at once.

In today's episode, we're saying goodbye to the house that held us this past year. Not our forever home. Not our first home. But a rental that saw deep change, quiet survival, and surprising joy. We're reflecting on what it means to move out—why it feels like a hard line in the sand—and how you carry both gratitude and grief when a chapter closes.

Inspired by a bold quote and the legacy of George Müller, today we're talking about what happens when we pray specifically. Like, “God, I need $412.60 by Thursday” specific. We'll unpack why that level of clarity matters, how it reveals God's faithfulness more tangibly, and what it means for our faith when we stop praying vague prayers and start naming names, numbers, and needs. If you've ever struggled to feel like God is listening—or even wondered what an answered prayer looks like—this episode is for you.

Today's episode is all about play—not just with our kids, but in our own lives too. We're diving into the idea that each of us has a play personality—a way we're naturally wired to have fun, unwind, and come alive. And just like you might not parent or process like your spouse, you might not play like them either. Or like your kids. So today we're walking through 8 play archetypes and reflecting on how knowing your own (or your kid's) can bring more joy, less pressure, and better connection in everyday life.

In this episode, Brooke and TJ respond to a common Instagram question — and unpack why they don't subscribe to the modern “gentle parenting” movement. From exploring its origins to calling out how it's been distorted by social media, they share what they do instead in their home: biblical parenting rooted in truth, grace, and Holy Spirit-led wisdom. This episode is honest, clarifying, and practical — perfect for any parent navigating today's overwhelming parenting culture.
Inspired by the Ramit Sethi quote—“Spend extravagantly on the things you love, and cut costs mercilessly on the things you don't”—this episode dives into the heart of values-based spending. We're talking about how to ditch guilt, align your money with what truly matters to your family, and why it's okay to love what you love. Plus: how this mindset has helped our marriage and changed the way we spend in both big and small ways. Closing Liturgy / Prayer: God who gives generously, Teach us to love what we love without shame. Help us release what no longer serves— The obligations, the expectations, the guilt. Remind us that wisdom looks like alignment, Not approval. And may our money—our time, our resources, our yeses— Be spent with joy. On what matters. On what lasts. On what You love. Amen.

We're celebrating 16 years of marriage with an honest conversation about how we've changed—and why that's actually a good thing. From big shifts in values to small daily habits, we're looking back at what's surprised us, what's helped us grow together instead of apart, and how our relationship has stayed both rooted and flexible. Plus: a few fun stories, some hard-won lessons, and encouragement for couples in any season. Closing Liturgy / Prayer: God who binds us in love, Thank you for the gift of change. For growing pains that draw us closer. For surprises that soften us. Help us not to fear the ways we evolve— But to embrace each other in every new season. Make our hearts tender, Our words gentle, Our laughter frequent. And when it's hard, Remind us: You are still with us. in year one, In year sixteen, In all the years to come. Amen. ____________ If you love what we do and want more behind-the-scenes fun, bonus episodes, and exclusive content, join the walk in love. Podcast Membership today!
