How can we thrive in times of loss? Is that even possible? In this episode of Priscilla Talk, our hosts interview Kristin Schmucker about what a really difficult season in her life taught her about trusting the Lord and leaning into the church.

Have you ever felt the cultural pressure to ‘Do it all'?It's probably safe to say we all could answer ‘yes' to that question. We live in a fast paced world that tells us our worth is measured in the things we do, the places we go, and the people we associate with. In today's episode, Kristin sits down with Kristin Schmucker, Founder & CEO of The Daily Grace Co. and Cultivate What Matters to discuss cultural pressure, the anxiety it creates and the peace that can be found in the Word of God. Kristin founded The Daily Grace Co. in 2014 after the tragic loss of her daughter. During that time of grief, she turned to the Word for her strength. After a discussion with her husband, she decided to sell some of her Bible Studies on Etsy to honor their daughter. On the first day, she sold hundreds of copies. Since then, the company has grown from packaging orders on the kitchen table to now having a team of 70 men & women and shipping about 1,000,000 Bible studies a year.Kristin is captivated by the Word due to the impact that it has made on her life, and is actively seeking her calling to share it with others. We are so excited that you are joining us for this impactful episode today!Episode Highlights: Background on Kristin SchmuckerHow The Daily Grace Company was startedFinding peace through lossDiving into the WordPractical Ways to Stay OrganizedJuggling PrioritiesDealing with AnxietyFind more on Kristin:Kristin's InstagramThe Daily Grace Co WebsiteCultivate What Matters WebsiteThe Daily Grace Co InstagramCultivate What Matters InstagramFind more on Mr. Pen products:Amazon.com : mr. pen storeInstagram: Mr. Pen (@gomr.pen) • Instagram photos and videosUse ABIDING10 at checkout for 10% off Mr. Pen products!Find More on Abiding Free:Instagram: @abidingfreeFollow us on FacebookCheck out our Website HEREContact: abidingfree@gmail.com*Disclosure: Some links are Amazon affiliate links and a small portion of your purchase will come back to us while your cost remains the same.

Blessed Brokenness of Meekness: BLESSED BROKENNESS - Part 3Springcreek Church | Lead Associate Pastor Jessica Fernandez, PhDJanuary 30, 2022PART 3 - BLESSED BROKENNESS OF MEEKNESSIn the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus tells us “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” Though society doesn't value meekness, God honors the meek and is demonstrated when we treat others with humility and gentleness. Meekness not only involves our attitude towards people, but it reveals our attitude towards God.  It displays strength under the control of God. It is a form of submission to God's unwavering sovereignty. You will never fully be all that you can be, and all that God wants you to be, until the power of your personality and the force of your convictions come under God's control. The meek shall inherit the earth by experiencing joy through every circumstance by having faith, confidence, and hope that God will keep his promises now and in the future. Join us this weekend as we discover strength in meekness. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. The true meaning of meekness is humility that rests in God and rejects the temptation to be self-sufficient, self-righteous, and prideful while trying to achieve all our wants and desires. When we think about the true meaning of meekness, do you believe that you hold this Christ-like attribute? If you are meek, how did you cultivate that? If you're not meek, how are you going to cultivate that?2. Kristin Schmucker describes the promise of inheriting the earth perfectly when she says, “The kingdom of God is now, and the kingdom of God is coming. It is already and not yet. He reigns now in our hearts, and someday, He will rule over every part of creation. The kingdom of God is in us because He is in us.” What are the benefits of inheriting the earth now and the benefits of inheriting the earth later?3. “Makarios” describes joy that is serene, untouchable, and self-contained, that joy which is completely independent of all the chances and the changes of life. How can we cultivate that type of joy in our lives?https://www.springcreekchurch.org/​​​​​​#RealSpringcreekChurch #BlessedBrokenness #beatitudes #blessed #brokenness #poverty #grief #meekness #loss #comfort #healing #Jesus #humility #gentleness #attitude #faith #God #promises

Today on the podcast we have speaker, author, mentor, and spiritual support leader for the YouVersion Bible app, Cindy Beall. She is also a woman who has been through incredible seasons of heartbreak after her husband revealed his unfaithfulness to her with multiple women, he was deep into an addiction to pornography, and one of the women he had slept with was pregnant. Cindy shares with us with such beautiful honesty where God met her in her heartbreak, and what the journey looked like when she felt called to stay with her husband as God restored her his's life, her life, and their fractured family. Ten years later, Cindy wrote a book called Healing Your Marriage When I Trust is Broken: Finding Forgiveness and Restoration, and now ten years after its first release, and 20 years after that heartbreaking season of their lives, the book is being re-released with updated insights from its original publication in order to counsel and care for those who are living in similar seasons of heartbreak.  Not everyone's story is like Cindy's, and we discuss that at length, but everyone will experience some type of betrayal and suffering, and I hope and pray that this message from Cindy can infuse hope into your soul that the Lord is near to you. We also talk about the powerful impact of porn and pornography addiction for men and for women, and how the human brain and body can so easily become entangled by it, as well as what it's like to hear from God, the power of the Word, prayer, living in community and how the Lord can be close to the brokenhearted.  Listen, friend, I just want to reiterate something Cindy says in her powerful book and it's this:  “I can't promise you that God will restore to you what has been lost, but please know He will restore you.” Don't lose heart, friends. Keep going. Ask for help. Cry out to the Lord. Take a nap. Make the call. Whatever your next right step is, the Lord can and will meet you in it. Further up and further in; that's where we draw closer to Him. You matter, friend. Your story matters.  Connecting with Cindy:  20th Anniversary of Healing Your Marriage When I Trust is Broken: Finding Forgiveness and Restoration  Facebook Instagram Website Episode Sponsor: His Kids Company Use the code SIMPLY20 for 20% off your purchase!

Abide. We use it as our “word of the year”. We see it on coffee mugs, necklaces and baseball caps. But what does abiding really mean? How do we abide? What does it look like to abide in the Lord in this day and age? We are joined by Kristin Schmucker, and she helps us see how abiding is simply being a disciple. It’s not about trying harder out of our own strength, but trusting in the person and work of Christ. It’s an overflow of our position in Christ as His beloved. It’s a means to true rest.     Connect with us:  www.dailygracepodcast.com  www.thedailygraceco.com  https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/  https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/    Questions?

What if the worst case scenario happens? What if our family contracts COVID-19? What if the lump is cancer? What if I lose my job? How do we walk by faith in the midst of life’s many “what if’s”? We believe the gospel offers us freedom from living with the “what if’s” ever before us. Sometimes, tragedy does strike. Our world may experience a pandemic. But God’s people respond, not in fear, but in faith. We look back to God’s past faithfulness, and we look forward to His future faithfulness. We are not “what if” people; we are “even if” people.     Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Life is full of disappointments and unmet expectations. Dealing with them can be incredibly difficult. Sometimes, we can feel absolutely devastated by unmet expectations. But then we read God’s Word that tells us to “be content with what you have” (Heb. 13:5). How do we reconcile the two? How can we be content when life is disappointing and not how we had hoped it would be? God gives us the secret to contentment in His Word; He gives us the grace and means!   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Self-care is a trendy topic. If self-care is just taking intentional steps to cultivate your physical, mental, and emotional health, what’s wrong with it? This topic isn’t so black and white. God created us as finite beings, and the limits that He has ordained are for our good. Rest is a gift! However, true rest according to God’s Word is not the same as what our culture promotes under the label of “self-care”. We’ll talk about what it means to have a healthy, biblical view of self-care, and we’ll even offer practical tips to engage in true rest that will refresh your soul in the Lord. DISCLAIMER: In this episode, we mention the term “mental health.” This term has a broad range of usage, and we are not using it to refer to mental health in any clinical sense. This podcast episode is not intended to treat or diagnose any mental health conditions. If you have a clinical mental health condition, or think you might, we encourage you to see a licensed mental health professional and connect with your local pastor.

We're chatting with Kristin Schmucker on one of our favorite topics - biblical literacy.  Kristin is a wife, mama to four, seminary student, Bible study author, and co-founder and CEO of The Daily Grace Co.  She is passionate about equipping women to study God’s Word and grow in their knowledge and love for Him. Kristin shares how The Daily Grace Co. came into existence, and how God’s Word comforted her in a season of loss and grief.  She breaks down what biblical literacy means and shares encouraging words for anyone new on this journey of growing in biblical literacy. She also talks about the beauty of the local church and how it can enrich our personal growth in biblical literacy.     If you hear anything in this conversation that you have questions about, please feel to e-mail us at podcast (at) thedaliygraceco (dot) com.  Also, download the new The Daily Grace Co. app on iOS or Android devices to get a FREE study called “Word of Life” that will help you study the Bible and explain why it matters.     Tell us the story of how the Daily Grace Company came into existence. What is Biblical literacy? Why is it important (for women specifically)? What has Bible study looked like in your life over the years? Why is growing in Biblical literacy important to you? How has your view of God, His Word, and self changed since you began studying His Word every day? Can you share how your study of God’s Word prior to tragedy helped you in the midst of loss and grief? Where would you encourage someone completely new to the Bible start on their journey of pursuing Biblical literacy? How can a normal, stay-at-home mama (or even a high school or college student) grow in Biblical literacy?

On this episode of the Journeywomen podcast, I chatted with Kim Vollendorf about intimacy with God. This is the first of five episodes that we’re releasing on the topic of relationships, just in time for February, the all-too-anticipated month of love, which, can we all just be honest with ourselves and admit that we long to experience?   On today’s episode, Kim and I discussed the foundation for true, selfless love, which is intimacy with God. Intimacy, or into-me-you-see, is a thread that weaves its way through each of the conversations we’re releasing on the topic of relationships, but it’s worth noting that this thread existed before humanity ever came into being, as God Himself experienced intimacy with the persons of the Trinity: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit. The Trinity eternally existed in relationship. Meaning, God didn’t create humanity because He was lonely or in need because there is rich fellowship within the members of the Trinity. He made us in His image and after His likeness and because of that, we were created to be in intimate relationships too, just like Him. That’s why He said, “It is not good that man should be alone.”   So God created Eve, a helpmate for Adam, someone like him, someone with whom Adam would experience knowing and being known. But not long after Adam and Eve were created, something terrible happened to this divine image when they disobeyed God’s command not to eat of the fruit of the forbidden tree. When they took and ate of the tree, the image of God in humans was twisted and damaged. We are still his image-bearers, but that image has been perverted throughout generations. We’re all longing for the image to be restored to its original beauty, but God intends to go beyond even what Adam and Eve experienced in the garden by conforming us into the image of Christ as we experience intimacy with Him.   There is nothing casual about the way in which God knows us. Scripture says that He has searched and known us, He knows when we sit and when we rise, He discerns our thoughts from afar. He searches out our path and our lying down; He is acquainted with all our ways. Even before a word is on our tongues He knows it. He knows all things, including absolutely everything about us. The reason He searches and knows us is because He loves us. So much so, that He sent His Son down to earth to die so that we could enter into relationship with Him, by the power of His Spirit, and once again experience intimacy with Him.   The cry of the human heart is to belong, to be loved, and to experience the ultimate intimacy that can only be found in relationship with God. By the power of the Spirit, our identification, our oneness, and our intimacy with Jesus conforms us into His image, which deepens and enriches our human relationships too! If we know that we’re loved by the Sovereign God, it frees us up to be open and intimate in our personal relationships as well. Today Kim and I talk about how we enter into relationship with God by the power of His Spirit, through relationship with His Son, and how knowing who God is actually cultivates intimacy with Him and with others. This is a huge topic and by no means is this conversation exhaustive, but we hope it will offer some practical tools to help you posture yourself towards intimacy with God.   I am inspired by Kim’s devotion to really knowing God through His Word. On a personal level, you may not go about this by creating a handy alphabet like Kim did, but I want to encourage you to invest time getting to know God through His Word, whatever that looks like for you. Last week’s episode, Biblical Literacy for Women with Kristin Schmucker, is another great resource for learning how to do that!   KIM'S RESOURCES Daily time in God’s Word Kim’s ABC Bookmark Sex and the Single Girl by Dr. Juli Slattery (resources on intimacy from biblical perspective)   KIM’S SIMPLE JOY’S Early morning Earl Grey tea and bible reading Putting on a pair of jeans that are long enough for me (American Eagle!)

On today’s episode of the Journeywomen podcast, I chatted with Kristin Schmucker about one of my absolute favorite topics (which if you’ve been around for longer than 2 seconds you can probably already guess is…) Biblical literacy. We discussed everything from why we, as women, need the Bible, to what it might look like to gracefully prioritize this spiritual discipline from the Gospel. As a wife and a mama to three precious girls and one adorable little boy, Kristin knows the challenges that come with demanding life seasons. Through it all, Kristin’s passion for equipping and encouraging women to know and love God's Word remains the same, because she knows from experience that studying Scripture changes lives. The desire of her heart is to help women see who God is and that the truth of His Word actually changes everything. I hope this episode leaves you all inspired and challenged to pick up your Bible, whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been studying it for years.   After listening to this episode, you will absolutely walk away with some helpful tools for your pursuit of Biblical literacy, but even more than that, I pray you will strive for Biblical literacy from a place of rest, believing that if you are in Christ, nothing can make you more loved than you are already are in Him. Not even the pursuit of something as excellent as Biblical literacy will make any of us more presentable to God. We are saved by works, but it is Christ’s works! Resting in what Christ has done for us brings a deep, soulful kind of rest that enables us to strive towards godliness as we study God’s Word.   KRISTIN’S RESOURCES Get plugged into a solid, Gospel-centered church and study the Word in community Daily Grace Company on Facebook Blue Letter Bible App The Daily Grace Company   KRISTIN’S SIMPLE JOYS Sunday afternoons Volcano candles from Anthro Theological conversations   OTHER RESOURCES Relating to our Emotions with Amy Waters | Ep. 06 Journeywomen Bible Study Resources   CONNECT WITH KRISTIN Website Facebook Instagram The Daily Grace Co Instagram   SPONSORSHIP DETAILS How would you like to serve as a local missionary in an apartment community, and receive up to 70% off your rent at the same time?
