When we let go of the relentless pursuit of approval and the pressure to meet impossible standards, we open our hearts to the grace and freedom that God offers. In Christ, we find our worth, not in our achievements or how others perceive us, but in being loved unconditionally. Living out this true identity means resting in His love, trusting in His plan, and allowing His peace to replace the anxiety of striving. It's in this surrender that we discover the profound beauty of being who God created us to be—imperfect, yet perfectly loved.Keywordsfaith, childhood, high achiever, perfectionism, legalism, marriage, ministry, postpartum depression, friendship, faith, Celebrate Recovery, brain cancer, hope, strength, wilderness, children's books, Bible study, Numbers, healingTakeawaysGrowing up in a believing home can have a profound impact on one's faith journey.High achievers and perfectionists may struggle with legalism and finding grace.Postpartum depression is a real and challenging experience for many new mothers.Authentic friendships and support can make a significant difference in navigating life's challenges.It's important to find and embrace one's own voice and not compare oneself to others.

SUMMER is a great time to play catch, isn't it? We can take a breath and enjoy life at a slower pace.  That's exactly what we plan to do over the next few weeks! The Raising Sinners Podcast will be re-playing some of our favorite episodes (and yours!). This week Lauren Chandler will be joining us (again ☺) to talk about her book, PRAISE HIM! We absolutely LOVED our visit with Lauren.  Grab a coffee and enjoy this convo amongst friends.  Happy Summer!

That's right! She watches birds, feeds birds, and even has an app on her phone telling her what kind of bird is perched on her windowsill at any given moment…she's legit! We just love her!   And she has a sincere and pure heart for worship. When her kids were younger, she wrote a song to help them in the highs and lows of life.  That song, became PRAISE HIM!, her new children's book out NOW.  Lauren's lyrical lines are accompanied by whimsical illustrations and encourage children that no matter day or night, wherever they go, they can praise God continually.     From page to page, readers will follow a child through her day as she goes from sunny morning to stormy afternoon and then a shadowy night.  Parents can utilize this book as a great resource to remind their children that God is always there with us, even when days are hard, and that only simple words are needed to praise Him.    Go to LaurenChandler.com to read more about Lauren, and her newest book, PRAISEHIM!

Welcome to the Love Where You Are podcast!  In today's episode I am joined with Lauren Chandler. Lauren Chandler is passionate about writing, music, and leading worship at her home congregation, The Village Church, and across the country. She is the author of two Bible studies, including With Us in the Wilderness, and two other books including one for children: Goodbye to Goodbyes. Lauren and her husband, pastor Matt Chandler, live with their three children in Flower Mound, Texas. In this episode, Lauren Chandler and I dive deep into praise. Praising God can seem easy during the pleasant pastures of life's journey, but even then we can get distracted and not do it enough, and through the storms of life it can be difficult to praise Him. Lauren and I discuss the ways we can praise God through all seasons of life, the sunny days and the dark nights, and how to foster homes of praise and demonstrate it to our kids--it makes an impact!  Thank you for being here today. Now, let's dive into the conversation!  You can connect with Lauren Chandler  through Instagram and her website Plus you can order her new book!    FAVORITE TAKE-AWAYS: *Praise isn't just for singing in church. Praise can be walking out the door with all the kids trying to get to school, and realizing the sunrise is stunning. Nature is full of God's beauty and wonderous handiwork and can bring us back to Him. Praise can also be lived out as a life-long expression of obedience to Him. Rethinking "praise" can help us do it on a daily basis.  *Praise changes our focus. Lauren shares the example of being in a bad mood one morning, rushing to get kids to school, and then after stopping to see God's sunrise and turned to praise, she found her mood completely change. With her heart pointed to praise and thanksgiving, her mood shifted and was able to extend love and grace to her kids that morning and begin her day brighter.  *Kids pick up more from us as parents based on our actions as opposed to our words. We can say a million good things, but it's our actions that kids notice and take after. Demonstrating a posture of praise even in dark seasons can help our kids as they go through their own dark seasons, remembering how mom and dad got through it.    REMEMBER: *Don't discrdit your child's prayer or praise. Praying for a puppy's hurt toe can be a prayer which leads to praying more with God, especially in darker seasons, like witnessing a friend's parents get divorced.  *Every child has his or her own journey to Christ. All we can do is model Christ's love and show them He is real through our life as an example, and through bringing them up on the solid foundation of scripture. We have to trust God that He will handle the rest.    Connect with me! Here's my Facebook & Instagram! Now, go love where you are and live on mission for Jesus today.

Frittatas and egg casseroles are the perfect dishes to feed a crowd during the holiday season, or really any time of year. Kari and Sonya also talk about Kari's breakfast egg casseroles, and the benefits of having a dish you can make the night before, and easily pop into the oven in the morning. ***Links to Lauren Chandler's reference recipes + her notes about the frittata:Bon Appetit's - How to Master Frittata for a Crowd, as was as their How to Make a Perfect Frittata: Rules to Follow and Mistakes to AvoidLauren adds: “This was the jumping-off point. They say any dairy, but I used 1/2-cup of heavy cream per dozen eggs. The creaminess was definitely also due to the heavily caramelized onions. Also, I added 3/4=cup shredded Tillamook cheddar per dozen eggs, as well as herbs.” Links to our favorite related recipes: Just a Taste's Make Ahead Breakfast Casserole is perfect for fall Melissa Clark's Green Strata with Goat Cheese and HerbsSusan Spungen's Sausage Egg and Kale Casserole Marcella Hazan's Bolognese RecipeThe kind of quiche Sonya grew up with, from Peas Love & Carrots
