In this edition of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I think through several different instances and examples which given evidence for the necessity of God's truth — specifically, the solid rock truth of Christ made sin for us. Such is the only message the world needs to hear. And good thing, too, it's the only message the church has.

In this edition of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I reflect on the God who wrestles with us out of the story of Genesis 32; I share the reason why the church can be “calm, cool, and collected” even when the “end of all things is at hand”; and why brotherly love means much more than you think it does.

Well this week I got the chance to sit with the author, Shona Murray to chat about embracing a grace-paced life and the talk was so so good!  Listen to the Podcast: We also recorded this blog post as an audio podcast.

We were created to work and to rest, but sometimes it feels like our to-do list never ends. But we were not created to carry the burdens of “doing it all” or to indulge in copious amounts of “me time.” So, when and how are we supposed to rest amidst the busyness of motherhood? In this episode, Laura and Emily get to the heart of self-care for mommas. While we do need practical things like sleep, food, and a shower, what our hearts most desperately need is the refreshing truth of the gospel. We weren’t made to be limitless, so our limitations are actually a gift that draws us into the rest offered by Christ in every situation.   RM APPLY QUESTIONS VIEW TRANSCRIPT   Articles, Resources and Related Content: RM | Equipping Ep. 2: Motherhood & Self-Care Ep. 66: Hannah Anderson: How Humility Nourishes a Weary Mom’s Soul  Refresh: Embracing a Grace-Paced Life in a World of Endless Demands - Shona & David Murray Humble Roots: How Humility Grounds and Nourishes Your Soul - Hannah Anderson “Five Truths on Rest – Lessons from a Newborn” - Lauren Weir, Words Worth Noting “Self-Care and Self-Denial” - Amie Patrick, The Gospel Coalition “Returning to Rest”  - Lexy Sauvé, Deeply Rooted Magazine “Come, All Who Are Weary” - Jon Bloom, Desiring God For More: To subscribe: on iOS, go to our iTunes page and subscribe.

Reading is one of my favorite past times! But I've gone through seasons in the last few years where I haven't read as much as I wanted.  So in 2017 I set a reading goal for my year for the first time! While I didn't actually reach my insane goal of 104 books, I did end the year with 67 read! And I am just fine with that.  Out of the 67 books, I read last year, I came across some amazing ones. So here are my top 10 books I read in 2017.  Listen to the Podcast: We also recorded this blog post as an audio podcast.

My top 10 Books from 2017:  Refresh: Embracing a Grace-Paced Life in a World of Endless Demands - Shona Murray I read Refresh near the end of December 2017 and funny enough, I had already picked it as my word for 2018! So this book was a perfect fit for me as I was contemplating what my year of REFRESHMENT was going to look like. You can read or listen in all about my word for 2018 here.  This book takes a look at what we do when our lives get too full and too busy. It's full of practical suggestions and ideas, but my favorite part of the book was it's spiritual look at how we run our lives. The author again and again makes the case that we need to rely on God more within our daily lives and less and less upon ourselves. There was a lot in this book that I really needed to hear as I head into 2018.  The Life Giving Table: Nurturing Faith through Feasting, One Meal at a Time - Sally Clarkson The Life Giving Table is a book about hospitality and serving those who eat at your table, particularly your family! There are a loooot of suggestions in this book and I'm only looking at implementing a very small fraction of the ideas for this season of life with little kids. And many of those suggestions I'm modifying even further to make work.  Sally presents a very ideal look of home and table life and I think it's a great idea to pick and choose which ones will work for your family. I did walk away from reading this book with new found encouragement to make family mealtime special. I interview Sally in the fall about her book. You can listen to that interview here.  The Tech-Wise Family: Everyday Steps for Putting Technology in Its Proper Place - Andy Crouch I think this is a must-read book for all families! It's all about healthy and responsible approaches to technology in the home. I think this is a vital message in today's culture and family life and it's only going to get more important as technology integrates itself even more in everyday life.  While we LOVE technology in our home and even run an online business, balance is the key! We had a lot of good things to think about from this book and several of his suggestions we are incorporating into our family. Jason and I both read the book in August. It was great to get to both read it and discuss it along the way.  Glory in the Ordinary: Why Your Work in the Home Matters to God - Courtney Reissig Most of what I do in my home each day is boring and ordinary. I bounce between scrubbing toilets, making dinner, and folding laundry. It's very easy within these routines to wonder, "What's the point in all of this?? Am I really serving God through all this mundane?"  Courtney beautifully addresses this heart problem and directs us again and again to view our work in light of serving God and His Glory! It's a quick easy read but will give you a lot to think about.   None Like Him: 10 Ways God Is Different from Us by Jen Wilkin  Jen has long been one of my favorite authors (and I'm looking forward to the new book she has coming out in May)! None Like Him is a great book that takes a look at 10 attributes of God. If you are wanting to learn more about God and his character,
