We've all dealt with trauma of some kind in our lives - it's a part of life. And while we may think we've done everything to deal with and handle past trauma, unexpectedly they can rear their ugly head and resurface - making us feel as though we're living through it again. In today's episode I talk about what we, as followers of Christ, should do when trauma resurfaces in our lives and to remind you that Jesus destroyed the power that trauma holds on the cross. I hope you find this episode encouraging and please share it with your friends and family, and don't forget to leave a review!

In this episode, John Chisum has a fun and very valuable conversation with Tony about his humble beginnings and the leap of faith that brought him to Nashville with no connections, no guarantees, and only the faith that God had called him to become a Christian songwriter. Tony shares candidly about the long journey through trials and setbacks that required a lot of tenacity and faith for him to “make it” years after he settled here with his first song being recorded, as well as his uncertainty that the “next song will ever come.” You can read more about Tony Wood on his website at tonywoodonline.com and follow him on Twitter and Instagram @tonywood_exit71.

More Than a Song - Discovering the Truth of Scripture Hidden in Today's Popular Christian Music
Everyone expresses joy a little differently, but in my house everyone of the female variety tends to express it by singing at the top of their lungs! Jonny Diaz' song "Joy" is the perfect song to belt it out and get inspired to read through (and pray through) a song in Scripture! Let's get energized and try something new as we head over to Psalm 47! On this episode I discuss: Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture - our Bible Interaction Tool Exercises this week are: Write out Scripture Pray Scripture My inspiration to choose Psalm 47 found in the first verse! - Psalm 47:1 Not being afraid to offer up exuberant praise to God The first time God is referenced as Most High in Genesis 14:19-20 Chasing the trail to Hebrews 5:10 where Jesus is described as a high priest after the order of Melchizedek A warning to not treat God too casually, but to revere Him Recognizing God's pattern of conquering even the fiercest of obstacles Celebrating our heritage in Christ because God CHOSE us and ADOPTED us - Ephesians 1:4-5 Considering joy welling up and spilling over in God - Psalm 47:5 The importance of paying attention to repetition in Scripture - Psalm 47:6-7 How God has not abdicated His throne to the evil one - Psalm 47:8 Gathering together as God's people under His shields (plural) of protection - Psalm 47:9 Additional Resources Lyrics and Chords This Week's Challenge Try the Bible Interaction Tool Exercises introduced on this week's podcast! Choose Psalm 47 or another one of your favorite Psalms. Write out each verse on one side of a note card and compose a prayer using the content or ideas from the verse on the other. Then review the note cards each day. Ponder and perhaps even journal your thoughts of what Scripture is saying. Feel free to use other B.I.T.E.s like cross-references or word studies, too!
More Than a Song - Discovering the Truth of Scripture Hidden in Today's Popular Christian Music
I really, really, really don't want my faith to be academic -- I want it to be real and applied and life changing. The wonderful things God has given me to share with all of you have been just that for me -- life changing. However, there is a time when what you have learned must be put to the test. That happened for me this week. In preparation for each week's episode I spend several hours reading Scripture and putting into practice the Bible Interaction Tool Exercises I share with you. After I have completed this "research" phase, it takes approximately two hours of writing for me to prayerfully put all of my thoughts together in an orderly fashion. Finally, it takes another two hours to record the podcast, create the show notes and freebies, create the memory verse resources, upload to the appropriate servers, and prepare my weekly email that I send out to my subscribers. All of it is a joy. I have had listeners pray that it never becomes a chore. I am here to testify that God has answered that prayer. It is a joy each week -- a crazy-fun adventure to think that God chooses to use little ol' me to reveal truth and inspire others. I have best friends and writing friends that I reach out to on a weekly basis for encouragement and prayer. I reached out to them this week suggesting that I was a little over-burdened and had not made significant progress on the next podcast and asked them to pray for wisdom and inspiration. You see, at my full-time job we had two evening meetings the first two days of the week and my middle-school daughter had an all-day-into-the-evening cross-country meet the next evening. I actually cooked dinner ONE NIGHT this week and we had a meal together as a family AT THE SAME TABLE...just one night. The next night we were all in different directions with football games and sleepovers. Needless to say, I had no margin this week and though I had spent a good deal of time in Scripture throughout the week, I never felt it had anything to do with what God wanted me to share on the podcast. Ugh. Square one. One of my writing friends (she's an amazingly talented poet and writer and you can find her work here) suggested I take a week off...that my listeners would understand. And perhaps you would understand. But I have made a commitment to myself and to God to be consistent! So, sorry Christina, I actually blew off the suggestion. Then my bestie texted and said this..."I bet it would speak more to your listeners if you pulled out the Jonny Diaz episode 'Breathe.' Isn't that where you are? Isn't it an opportunity to share with the listeners God's grace as we run the race?" Why, yes, friend. It is such an opportunity. Do you know what I did after I got the text and decided to take this path? I BREATHED. I put away my writing and listened to a political speech with my husband and then we discussed it afterward. I went with my husband and girls to the Sweet Dough Pie Festival (it's a Cajun thing...and you are really missing out if you have never had one.) We wandered around the festival and I BREATHED. We welcomed my husband's father and uncle over for coffee and a chat and I was able to stay and visit with them instead of sneaking off to write...and I BREATHED. I went back and re-read the area of Scripture I had been in (Judges 13-16 for those of you wondering) and didn't worry about what I needed to write about it, I just pondered it for myself...and I BREATHED. I went to an LSU football game with friends (we won, Geaux Tigers!) and got stuck in traffic for FOUR HOURS and didn't get home until three in the morning, but I knew I had created margin...and I BREATHED. We slept in and enjoyed coffee and cooking shows together as a family, I had a GREAT conversation with my 13-year old, made cookies with my 9-year old and even added some words to the manuscript of the book I am writing...and I BREATHED. So, friend, I hope you take the same opportunity. Sit at the feet of Jesus and BREATHE. Listen to this episode replay for the first time, listen to it again, or skip it all-together. I give you permission. Whatever you do...slow down and BREATHE. On this episode I discuss: Our pride in our own self-sufficiency Our tendency to #hustle and then celebrate our perpetual state of discontentment with addiction An example of characters in the Bible who could have "Breathe" by Jonny Diaz as their theme song, too - Mary and Martha in Luke 10 Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture - our Bible Interaction Tool Exercise this week is: Write out Scripture by hand Slowing down and writing out Philippians 4 in the Amplified Version Uncovering Paul's secret to being content Contentment is not complacency The book, "Margin: Restoring Emotional, Physical, Financial and Time Reserves to Overloaded Lives" by Dr. Richard Swenson Quote by J.I. Packer, "Contentment is essentially accepting from God's hand what He sends because we know that He is good and therefore it is good." Investing in sitting at the feet of Jesus through time in His Word. Additional Resources Lyrics This Week's Challenge Read Philippians all the way through - it is just 4 chapters. Follow this week's Bible Interaction Tool Exercise and take chapter 4 in a translation you are not familiar with and write it out by hand. Slow down. Breathe. Sit at the feet of Jesus. It is the SECRET to learn to be content.
During an interview with Christian singer Jonny Diaz (writer of hit songs "More Beautiful You" and "Breathe"), Sam and Jasmine ask him about what he wants to make sure his daughter knows about God.
More Than a Song - Discovering the Truth of Scripture Hidden in Today's Popular Christian Music
Our society celebrates a lack of margin with hashtags and t-shirts while sacrificing health and relationships along the way. This week's song, "Breathe" by Jonny Diaz reminds us that we need to stop and sit at the feet of Jesus and just be. This, however, will take a purposed effort on your part. Paul, in his letter to the Philippians, gives us a secret to contentedness. I can't wait to discover it with you. On this episode I discuss: Our pride in our own self-sufficiency Our tendency to #hustle and then celebrate our perpetual state of discontentment with addiction An example of characters in the Bible who could have "Breathe" by Jonny Diaz as their theme song, too - Mary and Martha in Luke 10 Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture - our Bible Interaction Tool Exercise this week is: Write out Scripture by hand Slowing down and writing out Philippians 4 in the Amplified Version Uncovering Paul's secret to being content Contentment is not complacency The book, "Margin: Restoring Emotional, Physical, Financial and Time Reserves to Overloaded Lives" by Dr. Richard Swenson Quote by J.I.

Jonny Diaz shares how he grew up a preacher's kid, gave up a baseball scholarship at Florida State University to pursue music, struggled to recreate success after his first song, owns and operates a gym with his wife, ditched our WAY-FM softball team after only one game, how things have changed since the birth of his daughter, and how the songs on his album "Let It Fly" and new EP "Everything Is Changing" are reminders that God is still in control.

National touring and recording artist/singer-songwriter who plays guitar and just put out a new EP, “Everything is Changing,” his seventh release. He is scheduled in December to do eleven shows in 18 days in seven different states and has toured with some household names in Christian music. Away from music, he and his wife opened a group training fitness facility in Nashville in late 2014 and earlier this year they were blessed with the gift of their first child, all of which he talks about during this interview, plus some thoughts on baseball.
Join us this week on Christian Devotions SPEAK UP! when the best clips of the year are ready for you to enjoy. Also joining will be Author Lori Hatcher. Lori is a busy woman. The editor of Reach Out, Columbia magazine, part-time dental hygienist, women's ministry speaker, freelance writer and editor, wife, and mother of two young adult daughters, she regularly struggles to make time for God. She wrote her book, Hungry for God…Starving for Time, with women like herself in mind. “—the career woman, the stay-at-home mom, the student who desires a relationship with God but struggles to make room for it in her busy day.” Following a chat with Lori, Speak UP will feature the best clips of 2014 featuring Brad Stine, John Schlitt, Corwin Anthony, David AR White, Don Moen, Jonny Diaz, Kim Ketola, Melody Green, Scott Brown, Zena Dell Lowe, and many more! You'll laugh, be encouraged, and—I pray—share the link and become a regular listener for 2015.

Join us this week on Christian Devotions SPEAK UP! when special guest Jonny Diaz drops by to talk about his new CD, Let It Fly. Jonny Diaz began his music career as worship leader for a youth group in Lakeland, FL. He released three independent projects before signing with INO Records in 2008. His label debut, “More Beautiful You” (2009), produced Diaz's first hit single, the album's title track, which reached No. 1 on Billboard's AC Indicator chart and No. 2 on its Hot Christian Songs chart. The record's momentum, combined with a self-titled follow-up album in 2011, paved the way for Diaz to perform alongside such notable Christian acts as Building 429, Matthew West, Steven Curtis Chapman, Mercy Me and Bebo Norman. Diaz signed with Centricity Music in October 2013 and released his first project with the label, Let It Fly, April 8, 2014. Let It Fly marks Diaz's first collaboration with famed producers Jeff Pardo (Mandisa and Salvador) and Brent Milligan (Steven Curtis Chapman and David Crowder Band), showcasing an increased artistic confidence, as evidenced by new sounds and insights from the talented artist. Such growth is readily apparent to early critical consumers of Let It Fly, with CCM Magazine giving it a four-star review, calling the record “a work of art,” Hallels.com touting it as “a gripping affair,” and Soul-Audio.com exclaiming, “Diaz embarks on a path that sees him living out his gifts.”
