Podcasts about love offering

Have you ever felt like you're falling behind in life? Like everyone else is getting married, starting families, launching ministries, or stepping into their callings—while you’re still waiting? If so, you are not alone. And more importantly, you’re not too late. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I had the joy of speaking with Rebecca George about her new book, You’re Not Too Late: Trusting God’s Timing in a Hurry-Up World. In a culture that tells us to hustle, strive, and “make it happen,” Rebecca offers a beautiful invitation to wait well—to rest in God's presence, release resentment, and find joy in the meantime. Together, we talk about: How to bring our disappointments honestly before God Finding contentment even when our desires are unmet How to turn envy and doubt into deeper trust Forming life-giving habits that help us flourish in every season If you're in a season of longing or wondering when it will be your turn, I know this episode will speak to your heart. Because you’re not behind. You’re exactly where God wants you—and He is never late. Gratefully,Rachael P.S.

Have you ever found yourself clinging tightly to control, only to feel even more out of control? I recently had the opportunity to interview a guest who asked a powerful question: “What if I can’t let go?” It’s a question that resonates with so many of us. We long to live fully and freely, but fear, insecurity, and the weight of comparison hold us back. We think holding on will help—but true strength is found in surrender. In this episode of The Love Offering podcast, I chat with Caitlin Mentzel about her book More Than Conquering: A Season of Surrender where we explore:

Have you ever hesitated, wondering, Was that really God? You're not alone. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I'm joined by Abby McDonald to talk about her latest book, Surrendering Certainty: Hearing God Today by Letting Go of Tomorrow. In our conversation, we explore a powerful truth—God's voice wasn't meant to predict the future, but to guide us in peace today. If you've ever longed for clarity but found yourself stuck in indecision, doubting if you can really hear from God, this episode is for you. Abby shares how we can: Trade the need for control with the confidence of walking by faith Release the burden of needing to know what comes next Grow in our ability to discern God's voice through His Word Make decisions without second-guessing when God has already equipped us to move forward Let's surrender our craving for certainty and discover the freedom that comes with trusting the One who already holds tomorrow.

If you’re parenting a teen boy, you already know—these years can feel like an emotional roller coaster. There are moments of joy, but also confusion, frustration, and heartache. You want to guide your son, love him well, and point him to Jesus—but some days, you honestly don’t know what to do. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I’m joined by Brooke McGlothlin, author of Praying for Teen Boys: Partner with God for the Heart of Your Son. As a mom of two sons herself, Brooke offers wisdom straight from the trenches and reminds us that we’re not alone—and we’re not without help. In our conversation, Brooke shares how to: Fight for your son, not against him Partner with God in powerful prayer Navigate your changing relationship with peace and confidence Find purpose, not powerlessness, in your parenting No matter how out of reach your son may seem at times, prayer keeps you connected to the One who sees, knows, and loves him even more than you do.

Have you ever found yourself thinking... “It’s all been done.” “What if I start and fail?” “What if my voice doesn’t matter?” “What if it’s already too late?” If so, you're not alone—and this week’s episode of The Love Offering podcast is one you can’t miss. I had the absolute joy of sitting down with author and speaker Mary Marantz to talk about her brand-new book, Underestimated. In it, she speaks directly to the fears and excuses that keep us stuck in place—silent, small, and sidelined from the calling God has placed on our hearts. Together, we talk about how to move from stuck to start, how to quiet the inner critic (and the outer ones too), and why your voice does matter in this world. Mary shares not only the wisdom she’s gleaned but also practical, grace-filled steps to help you finally quit playing small and step into the story God has written just for you. You are not too late. You are not too much. And you are certainly not underqualified. Let’s stop sitting on the sidelines and start walking in faith—one small, brave step at a time.

Have you ever caught yourself saying, “I’ll do that someday…”? Too often we let the days slip by—some feeling mundane, others overwhelming. But what if today wasn’t just something to survive or check off the calendar? What if today was a verb—an invitation to act, embrace, and fully live? On this week’s episode of The Love Offering podcast, I’m joined by my friend and bestselling author Carol McLeod to talk about her new book, Today Is a Verb: Open the Gift of Now in Every Ordinary Moment. Carol encourages us to stop waiting for “someday” and to begin living with purpose today. Through powerful, action-oriented words like pray, trust, celebrate, forgive, and persevere, she helps us uncover the beauty and meaning tucked into each moment. In our conversation, you’ll discover: How to shift your mindset to see today as a divine gift Practical ways to take action in your faith right now How to embrace joy, even when life feels hard Why God’s plan for your life isn’t just in the future—it’s unfolding today Whether you need encouragement to get unstuck, hope for your current season, or a fresh perspective on the everyday, this episode is for you. Let’s stop letting days pass us by. Let’s start living with intention—because today matters.

Have you ever felt unseen or overlooked? Maybe you’ve wondered if anyone notices your efforts, your heart, or even your presence. If so, you are not alone. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I had the joy of talking with Mary DeMuth about her newest book, The Most Overlooked Women of the Bible. In our conversation, Mary tenderly reminds us that feeling unseen is not a new struggle—many women in Scripture felt the very same way. Yet through their stories, we are invited to discover a profound truth: we are both seen and heard by the God who loves us. Together, we explore questions like:✨ Why do I feel invisible sometimes?✨ How can I overcome feelings of rejection?✨ What does it really mean to live a “seen” life in a world obsessed with recognition? Mary’s words are like a balm to the soul—offering hope, healing, and a fresh reminder that you have a beautiful, meaningful place in God’s story. I pray this conversation encourages you to rest in His love, find joy in who He created you to be, and live empowered to use your unique voice for His glory. You are seen. You are heard. You are deeply loved.

Have you ever found yourself wrestling with questions about your faith? Wondering if God is still near, still listening, still good? If so, I want you to know that you’re not alone. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I talked with Niki Hardy about her book, God, Can We Chat? It’s an honest, refreshing, and grace-filled invitation to bring our doubts and questions to God—without fear, shame, or pretending we have it all together. So often, we think our faith is only strong if we never question or waver. But Niki reminds us that God isn’t afraid of our questions—He welcomes them. Rather than weakening our faith, honest conversations with God can deepen and strengthen it. If you’re in a season where faith feels hard, where you feel distant from God or unsure of what you believe, I encourage you to tune in. You don’t have to have all the answers to come to Him—He asks that you come. I’d love to hear—have you ever had a “chat” with God that changed your perspective? Hit reply and let me know. I’m always grateful to walk this journey of faith with you.

Episode Summary:  In this heartwarming episode of Your Hope-Filled Perspective, we explore how to love God, yourself, and others as I welcome author Rachael Adams. We discuss why she wrote her devotional, Everyday Prayers for Love, and what she learned while writing it. Inspired by a moment in a church pew, Rachael shares how God called her to be His “love offering” and to help others experience His transforming love. In this episode, we explore biblical love, the importance of accepting God's love, and practical ways to love ourselves and others. With insights on prayer and purpose, this conversation invites listeners to discover how to start living out God's love in everyday life. Quotables from the episode: The biggest battle has always been maybe striving for approval and striving for acceptance and for love. I grew up in a divorced home and my earthly father was not around much. And so I think I just always wanted just to be seen and known and loved. And So, I went in search of that. I'm so scared to disappoint anybody. I'm very much a people-pleaser, and so to really start to learn of God's love and experience that from my heavenly father has just really shaped the person I am and changed everything. It changed the trajectory of my life. And now I just want to share that with the world around me. Our early experiences, before we're even really cognitively aware of what's going on or what God has to say about it, really does shape our perspective and how we look at God, at the world, and ourselves. So how we're living our faith maybe is different, but our goal is all the same. What does the Bible teach us about both the nature and the characteristic of love? After I had my son, I really believe that as God was teaching me how to become a mother, he was also teaching me how he was my father. And I believe that as I was holding my son, God was really holding me. He can use us flawed humans to be an expression of his love to others. The greatest act of love was that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us! That's why he came to save us. He knew we weren't perfect and that we needed him. It's so important for us to be filled with God's love first, to have anything to give to others. Scripture talks about the fullness of God. So what are we watching? What are we reading? Who are we surrounding ourselves with? What are the words that are on repeat? Nothing else in the world will satisfy but Christ himself. When we receive God's love, there's a freedom in that, and a security in that. There's the saying that there's nothing that we can do to make God love us any more, and there's nothing that we can do to make God love us any less, and we don't have to work for it. Scripture References: Matthew 22:36-40 “'Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?' Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and without all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Ephesians 3:17-19 “And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,…grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and…know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” 1 John 4:19 encourages, “I pray this not just for your sake, but also so that you may extend this newfound love to others. Afterall, ‘We love you because he first loved us.” Romans 8:39 “…No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.”   Recommended Resources:  Everyday Prayers for Love: Learning to Love God, Others, and Even Yourself by Rachael Adams  A Little Goes a Long Way: 52 Days to a Significant Life by Rachael Adams www.millionprayingmoms.com/the-think-pray-praise-method-of-daily-prayer Sacred Scars: Resting in God's Promise That Your Past Is Not Wasted by Dr. Michelle Bengtson  The Hem of His Garment: Reaching Out to God When Pain Overwhelms by Dr. Michelle Bengtson YouVersion 5-Day Devotional Reaching Out To God When Pain Overwhelms   Today is Going to be a Good Day: 90 Promises to Start Your Day Off Right by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the AWSA 2023 Inspirational Gift Book of the Year Award, the Christian Literary Awards Reader's Choice Award in four categories, and the Christian Literary Awards Henri Award for Devotionals YouVersion 7-Day Devotional, Today is Going to be a Good Day YouVersion 7-Day Devotional, Today is Going to be Another Good Day Breaking Anxiety's Grip: How to Reclaim the Peace God Promises by Dr. Michelle Bengtson Breaking Anxiety's Grip Free Study Guide Free 7-Day YouVersion Bible Reading Plan for Breaking Anxiety's Grip Hope Prevails: Insights from a Doctor's Personal Journey Through Depression by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the Christian Literary Award Reader's Choice Award Hope Prevails Bible Study by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the Christian Literary Award Reader's Choice Award Trusting God Through Cancer 1 Trusting God Through Cancer 2 Revive & Thrive Women's Conference Subdue Stress and Anxiety: Fifteen Experts Offer Comprehensive Tools in Ten Minutes a Day.

Have you ever wondered how to rebuild your life after everything falls apart? Whether it’s the loss of a loved one, a broken relationship, or an unexpected crisis, starting over can feel impossible. But what if God’s process for creation holds the key to navigating the chaos and finding new beginnings? On this week’s episode of The Love Offering podcast, I had the privilege of interviewing Dawn Sanders, author of When Your World Ends: God’s Creative Process for Rebuilding a Life.

And don’t forget to share this episode with a friend who might need encouragement. Dawn’s story is a testament to the fact that even when our world ends, God’s love and creativity remain.

Summary: *The conversation discusses the power and simplicity of gratitude as a spiritual discipline. *Gratitude is seen as a choice and a discipline that can lead to transformation and intimacy with God. *Practicing gratitude can rewire the brain's neural network to focus more on positive aspects. *Simple daily practices, such as acknowledging things to be grateful for, can cultivate gratitude. *Gratitude can combat negative emotions like fear and anxiety, promoting peace. *Engaging with biblical teachings, like Philippians 4:8, can help maintain a posture of gratitude. *The discussion emphasizes the importance of intimacy with God for true gratitude and compassion. *Gratitude and love are linked, with love being viewed as faith in action and compassion. *Practicing gratitude can lead to improvements in one's life, including emotional and spiritual growth. *Gratitude is portrayed as a gift from God, intended to be shared with others as an overflow of His love. Podcast Intro: Gratitude is an ever-present concept in our lives, yet we often underestimate its power to transform our perspectives and experiences. The episode today was a great conversation with author, podcast host and speaker, Amanda Schaefer. She shared her insights on how the simplicity of gratitude can be more profound than we imagine, offering a window into a value system that transcends our earthly understanding. Gratitude, she explains, is not a trait some are simply born with, but a discipline and a choice that anyone can learn and embrace. It is an attitude that, when practiced intentionally, can lead to a profound transformation in one's spiritual and emotional life. Amanda discovered gratitude is part of our neural pathway that, once traveled repeatedly, becomes a well-worn trail in our minds. This practice of choosing to focus on the positive aspects of life, even amid challenges, reaps, peace, joy, and blessings.  By acknowledging the beauty and goodness around us, we can cultivate a mindset that anticipates good things and, in turn, experiences more of it. This is not to say that gratitude is a natural inclination for everyone; it requires conscious effort and practice. Amanda emphasizes that the discipline of gratitude is something that has to be developed, much like any other skill or habit. Once the habit is formed, you will naturally perceive and notice countless things to be thankful for. The practice of gratitude is not complicated. Amanda recounts how she began a simple morning routine of expressing gratitude before her feet even touched the ground. By starting the day with a focus on the goodness of God, she found that it set a positive tone for the rest of her day. When one is grateful, feelings of fear and anxiety are replaced with peace and joy, as gratitude and fear cannot coexist. Moreover, Amanda highlights the biblical perspective on gratitude. We talked about Philippians 4:8, which encourages believers to focus on what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. This verse encapsulates a heart posture of gratitude, guiding individuals to meditate on the good and praiseworthy things in life. In doing so, one aligns closer with a life of peace and intimacy with God. The act of focusing on gratitude is not just a spiritual exercise but a transformative experience that can renew the mind and spirit. Throughout this conversation Amanda reminds us, this practice of gratitude is within everyone's reach and can bring about profound personal and spiritual growth and create deeper intimacy with Christ.

Have you ever felt burdened, broken, or burned out? If so, you’re not alone. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I had the joy of sitting down with bestselling author Asheritah Ciuciu to discuss her new book, Delighting in Jesus: Rhythms to Restore Joy When You Feel Burdened, Broken, or Burned Out. In our conversation, Asheritah shares how life’s challenges—family dynamics, overcommitment, and external pressures—can rob us of the joy God desires for us. But the good news is that joy is not only possible but restorable. Here are some of the takeaways from our time together: Joy is cultivated by spending time with Jesus, who is the ultimate source of delight. Burnout often stems from overcommitment and misplaced priorities, but God offers rhythms of restoration. Neuroplasticity shows us that we can retrain our minds to seek and experience joy through intentional spiritual habits. Asheritah outlines five powerful rhythms for joy: worship, word, whisper, wonder, and walking. This conversation was a gentle reminder that we don’t have to navigate burnout and exhaustion alone. By turning to Jesus and adopting these life-giving rhythms, we can rediscover joy, even in the most difficult seasons. I pray Asheritah’s insights inspire you as much as they did me. Let’s commit to finding joy in Jesus together and allowing His presence to transform our daily lives. With love and gratitude,Rachael P.S. If you know someone who could use a little more joy, forward this email to them—they’ll thank you for it!

This week on The Love Offering podcast, I had the privilege of sitting with Annie Mayfield to talk about her heartfelt and life-changing book, U Matter. Annie’s journey is one so many of us can relate to—the endless striving to prove our worth, only to discover that our value was never tied to what we achieve. Annie shared how she spent years chasing accomplishments in sports, relationships, careers, and more to feel like she mattered. When life stripped away what she thought defined her, she came face-to-face with a raw truth: her worth had nothing to do with what she could do or earn. Instead, it was rooted in God’s unchanging love. We explored the freeing message in Jeremiah 1:5—that our value is not a badge we earn but a title God gives us. Annie’s story is a beautiful reminder that real faith isn’t about what we do “for” God but how we walk with Him. She invites us to trust that when God says we matter, He means it. If you’ve ever confused your worth with your achievements or felt the pressure to “prove” you belong, this episode is for you. Annie’s story will inspire you to step into the truth of your inherent worth and remind others of theirs, too. I hope Annie’s powerful message encourages you as much as it did me. Let’s embrace the truth that we are loved, chosen, and valuable—not because of what we do, but because of who we are in Him. With love,Rachael P.S. Share this episode with a friend who might need a reminder of their worth today. Let’s spread the light together!

Motherhood is a gift—but let’s be honest, it’s also messy, exhausting, and sometimes overwhelming. In the midst of endless to-dos, tantrums, and sleepless nights, how do we hold on to the hope of the gospel and let it shape our motherhood? This week on The Love Offering podcast, I had the joy of speaking with Emily Jensen about her new book, Gospel Mom: The Grace of Christ for Weary Mothers. Emily beautifully reminds us that we don’t have to strive for perfection or rely on our own strength in motherhood. Instead, we can rest in the grace and truth of Jesus. During our conversation, we discussed: How the gospel reframes our perspective on parenting struggles. Why your worth isn’t tied to how “well” you mother. Practical ways to center your heart on Christ in the chaos of daily life. The freedom that comes when we stop chasing worldly standards of motherhood. If you’re feeling weary or wondering if you’re doing enough, this episode is for you. Emily’s words are like a deep breath for tired moms, pointing us back to the One who holds all things together. I pray this conversation encourages you to see that God’s grace is sufficient in every season of motherhood. He’s with you in the mess, and His love is transforming you and your family.

ACIM Quote: "For relationships, to the ego, mean only that bodies are together. ³It is always this that the ego demands, and it does not object where the mind goes or what it thinks, for this seems unimportant. ⁴As long as the body is there to receive its sacrifice, it is content." (ACIM, T-15.VII.8:2-4) Today's Guest: CanDace Johnson joins Tam and Matt to delve into a painful relationship with her Mother that involved shedding grievances and roles, and embracing gratitude.

I. True Empathy 1. To empathize does not mean to join in suffering, for that is what you must refuse to understand. ²That is the ego's interpretation of empathy, and is always used to form a special relationship in which the suffering is shared.

A Conversation on Little Things, Celebrating Others, and Trusting God with Rachael K AdamsDuring this episode, we are learning how to trust God to increase the little we commit to Him for His glory.1 PETER 4:7-117 The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray. 8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 9 Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. 10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.MEET RACHAELRachael was born and raised in a small Kentucky lake town. After she married her college sweetheart, Bryan, she moved him there too. Together, they run a family business and live on a farm with their two children, Will and Kate, and two doodle dogs named Buster and Penny.Rachael spends her days taking care of their farm and home. When she isn't doing something with or for her family, she loves to get together with friends, cook, take walks, and read Christian nonfiction. Her writing and podcasting journey began when she was sitting in church and saw a love offering envelope in the pew in front of her. She sensed the whispering to her heart that we are his love offerings to the world. So Rachael began having conversations with women who were living faithfully and loving the world around them in practical and tangible ways.Through the conversations she's had and through her own personal experience, Rachael discovered that many of us don't believe our contributions or offerings matter. It is Rachael's hope that this devotional and her ministry can change this narrative. She wants to encourage women to realize their God-given purpose and believe their lives are significant to His kingdom. Because in God's hands, small acts done with great love can have an enormous impact.Connect with her by visiting rachaelkadams.com, @rachaeladamsauthor on social media, and by tuning in to The Love Offering podcast every Tuesday on your favorite listening platform.RESOURCESPurchase A Little Goes A Long WayConnect with Rachael on IGJoin Liv's Email FamilyConnect with Me on IGGrab Your Copy of Selah hereSELAH: A STUDY OF 1 AND 2 SAMUELPurchase your copy of Selah: A Study of 1 and 2 Samuel

ACIM Quote: "The idea for today introduces the thought that you are not trapped in the world you see, because its cause can be changed. ²This change requires, first, that the cause be identified and then let go, so that it can be replaced. ³The first two steps in this process require your cooperation. ⁴The final one does not.
