If we do not know Jesus' love on a deeply personal level and encounter His love in our busy and full, real lives, then the spiritual disciplines devolve into legalism and empty works. Without recognizing how much we are loved and cared for, everything else we do in that relationship is a striving attempt to be loved.  Because experiencing God's love for us is a gift we want to receive AND struggle with experiencing, I've invited Dr. Curt Thompson to join the show.  In today's episode, you'll receive practical strategies and anchoring truths as we process moving God's love from head to heart. You'll learn: How to move Jesus's love for you from your head down to your heart How to experience grace in your real life, How solitude soothes your soul. And one simple exercise to help you pay attention to what you're paying attention to.  Mentioned in the podcast  The FCC requires that I tell you that I'm an Amazon Affiliate, which means I earn a bit of commission on each sale.

Today we're talking about the spiritual discipline of paying attention and awakening to God's love for you. Through this series on spiritual health, I want us – women of God and sisters in Christ – to be healthy and to shed who we are not and the false narratives that don't serve us well so we can live and move and have our being in freedom and grace.  I pray that we will lean – not into the discipline, for the discipline isn't the point –but that we would lean into the God who is actively shaping us and that we will learn to love who we are becoming.  In this episode, Anjuli shares: How to pay attention is different seasons How to let people in when you're terrified And what it looks like for Jesus to be with you Key Quotes “The way in which I was doing the spiritual disciplines was totally killing me inside.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “The thought of stopping and being alone in a cabin for three weeks terrified me. And what terrified me the most was being with myself.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “When we stay with ourselves, and we stay with God staying with us, that is the living water we are thirsty for.”- Author Anjuli Paschall “When we stop and open our hearts, it's messy.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “The invitation the Lord is giving you is to stay because that's where the Lord is. He is with you.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “The real hope with any discipline is to not get good at the discipline but to become wise and well in the thing you want to grow in.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “What do you see? When you look in the mirror and look at yourself, what's there?” - Author Anjuli Paschall “Paying attention is actually receiving the life you've been given.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “Paying attention looks like being really honest with myself and being really honest with others.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “Trust the journey Jesus has you on.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “The capacity for you to be vulnerable is dependent on the other person's capacity and your experience of their reliability.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “Now I care very little about someone perceiving me as a good mom. I care about being the mom my kids need.” - Author Anjuli Paschall “Parenting is a tender balance between love and freedom.” - Author Anjuli Paschall As Mentioned in the Podcast The FCC requires that I tell you that I'm an Amazon Affiliate, which means I earn a bit of commission on each sale.

What does it look like to connect with the heart of Christ through prayer? How do we do that in our real lives? How do we talk with God instead of at God? To kick off this year, we're in a new series called Spiritual Health. In it we'll walk through five spiritual disciplines:  Studying the Bible with writer Amber Palmer was Episode #97 Praying to connect with the heart of Christ with Kimberly Coyle – that's today Celebrating Sabbath with author Mark Buchanan Imitating Christ as we suffer with author KJ Ramsey And hearing from God with author Jen Barnett In this conversation, Kimberly shares with us: A great prayer when you only have 5 minutes What's going on when we wonder if we're not hearing from God because we're not doing it “right” The role of emotions in our prayer life, And how she's retraining her brain. Key Quotes “We don't need to feel shame that we've prayed ‘wrong' or that we're not spending enough time in prayer.” - Writer Kimberly Coyle “Prayer is a much broader, more beautiful, more flowing experience than sitting down and having the formula or set time of day.”  - Writer Kimberly Coyle “Prayer is returning to center.”  - Writer Kimberly Coyle “Prayers become a habit of thought.”  - Writer Kimberly Coyle “Sometimes we can miss what the answered prayer really is because it doesn't look like we expect it.”  - Writer Kimberly Coyle “God is not afraid at all of our deep emotion.”  - Writer Kimberly Coyle “Where are my spiritual eyes going?”  - Writer Kimberly Coyle “Shake shame off.”  - Writer Kimberly Coyle “There is no right or wrong, where prayer is concerned.”  - Writer Kimberly Coyle Mentioned in the Podcast The FCC requires that I tell you that I'm an Amazon Affiliate, which means I earn a bit of commission on each sale.

This is an unusual episode because this is not about how you can give yourself grace during the summer, but it's about how you can take off the heavy burden summer carries for you.  You want to enjoy your summer, but can you do it with all the expectations if you've laid on the sun-kissed shoulder of the season of summer? In this episode, we'll dive into: What you expect from your summer And what you can do to lessen the expectations. Because when we recalibrate our expectations we can actually enjoy the summer. And who doesn't want to do that??!? Summer carries so many expectations. I want summer to be All The Things: slow,  social,  about connection, a time to play catch up on around-the-house projects,  and fun.  I also put a lot of pressure on summer. Summer will be a time of peaceful respite from school-year craziness. I believe that my tightly-wound temperament will convert into a silly, sunny, and laid-back person.  And I tell myself that in summer I'll be the kind of mom I want to be.  So how can we give summer grace? Let's apologize to summer. Let's examine where our expectations come from.  Let's thank Jesus for the gifts that summer gives us, which are (1) a different pace AND (2) the revelation of who we want to be. Let's embrace the reality of what our responsibilities are and add in the fun we want to have.  Let's let summer be summer, and quit asking her to meet the expectations she cannot.  Key Quotes Let's examine where our expectations for summer come from. When did these expectations start? Where did we pick up that summer could be All The Things or that we'd become who we are not?  Without summer, I may never know that a longing of my heart is to be more laid back and relaxed. This is good information to have, and it creates another conversation for me to have with my friend Jesus.

Around this time last year, Kimberly Coyle wrote a post called One Small Way to Steward Your Life Well. In it, she talks about how easy it is to fall into the trap of now and encourages her readers to dream, plan, and read their ideas into being. All the while reminding us to live in the present... but also to plan well for the future. Her post challenged us to consider what it actually means to steward my ideas, desires, and talents and consider what it takes to start something well.

Last week we talked on the show with Kimberly Coyle about Practical Tips for Coming Back to Center. Knowing and participating a handful of actions that ground us works wonders when life feels like it is spinning out of control. Another thing that I have found helpful over the last few years is knowing and applying my non-negotiables to my everyday. My co-hosts and I have gathered today to talk about what non-negotiables are, our experience with them as well as get some wisdom from our resident life coach Elise Daly Parker on why they are so important.

Do you ever feel like life is spinning out of control? It’s easy to lose focus and get overwhelmed. However, it’s not hopeless, I promise you. The key to making to the other side is understanding what centers you when navigating through a busy life. Kimberly Coyle is here to share with us a few touch points she uses throughout her day to help her remember that she is a human being, not a human doing.

Advent is a period of spiritual preparation for the coming of Jesus Christ at Christmas. Advent begins on the fourth Sunday prior to Christmas Day and lasts through Christmas Eve, or December 24. It’s a great way to keep Christ at the center of the season. There are so many different variations and interpretations of Advent customs that exist today. My co-hosts and I are here to share the ways we have celebrated advent in the past and things we would like to try in the future.

Before we had children, a lot of us had big ideas about how we’d parent and how great our children would turn out. We assumed if did all the right things and prayed hard enough, our little angles would be obedient and thus reflect just how wonderful and insightful we are as parents. I am sure we a bit surprised when it didn't work out that way. In this episode, we are talking about how to have grace ourselves and for our children when they disobey. Mentioned in the Show: Post: 3 Best Ways to Respond When Your Teen’s Moral Compass Goes Haywire by Kimberly Coyle for For Her Websites: For Her - Online Magazine Moms in Prayer Podcast: Slices of Life Episode 012 Praying for Your Children and an interview with Cynthia Weisbecker Student Program: TREP$ - A comprehensive project-based entrepreneurship curriculum designed for students in grades 4-8.

Join Kimberly Amici, Elise Daly Parker, and Kimberly Coyle as they talk today about Kids and Money. Kids learn about math, science, and language in addition to many other subjects. However, very little emphasis is put on money management. Even if basic skills are taught, topics such as living a life that allows you to be generous, how to save, and spending less than you earn are rarely covered. So how do we teach the next generation, specifically our kids, to have a healthy perspective of money and how to use it. Mentioned in the Show: According to Dave Ramsey’s website: In 2007, 60% of teens knew how to balance a checkbook. In 2011, only 43%. 40% of 13-22 year olds expect to receive an inheritance. Only 16% of parents said they think they can provide one. 75% of teens say that learning more about money management, including budgeting, savings and investing, is one of their top priorities.
