Cindy DeBoer joins Stephanie to share her story of transformation—from living the American dream to pursuing a life of simplicity and deep faith. Cindy's family motto sums it up best: “We chose to live simpler so that others can simply live.” Whether that means downsizing, shifting how you spend time, or offering your unique talents, the ultimate goal is the same—living in tune with God's melody for your life, allowing Him to enrich and use you far beyond what the culture's definition of “success” could offer. Cindy's candid memoir offers practical lessons for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the relentless pursuit of “more” or sensing a disconnect between their faith and daily life. Cindy shares the story of her family choosing to live simpler so others can simply live. She asks, What does it look like to glorify God with our finances? In her new book, Far, far better things, she shares that, in the first 12 years of her marriage, she and her husband, although faithfully attending church and following Jesus as best they knew how, were still very focused on "getting ahead," building their bank account, striving to have the best of everything - including having the best house and the best kids. They pushed themselves nearly to the breaking point. She tells us what (who?) stopped that trajectory and got them to turn their lives around and specifically, start asking the question, "What if we lived what we say we believe?” From Success to Surrender: A Life Re-examined Cindy's early adult life was marked by what her community celebrated as success: marriage to her high school sweetheart, good jobs, a dream house with luxury amenities, and busy, achievement-packed schedules for their four children. Despite following what seemed like a “formulaic path,” she and her husband felt empty and exhausted. Their faith, although present, was largely intellectual and routine—church attendance and mealtime prayers—but lacked genuine heart engagement. The turning point came when brave friends challenged them to question, “Where is God in all of this?” This gentle but persistent questioning—along with new friendships, books, and volunteer work—sparked a series of soul-searching prayers: Were they truly living out what they professed to believe? What might God be asking of them that they'd never considered? Small Steps Lead to Big Changes Change didn't happen overnight. Cindy and her husband began with small, tangible acts of obedience, like reaching out to a homeless family from their child's classroom—a move that transformed their understanding of compassion and shifted their mindset from “helper” to “learner.” These steps emboldened them to pursue adoption, welcoming a daughter from Guatemala. The process opened their eyes further to global poverty and injustice, stirring a passion for others that wouldn't have developed in their comfortable status quo. A defining lesson came as they downsized their home—moving from their “dream house” to the “little brown mansion.” This reduction in material possessions brought unexpected peace and joy, as it freed up energy, time, and resources for giving and serving. Most importantly, Cindy observed the positive impact such choices had on their children, making them more resilient, empathetic, and adept at hearing God's voice. The Heart of the Lesson: Simplicity Isn't Poverty—It's Purpose Cindy insists her story isn't prescriptive—not everyone is called to move overseas or adopt a child. Instead, her encouragement is this: Hold your life loosely before God. Ask the courageous question: “Am I truly living what I say I believe?” Trust that God honors even the smallest steps of faith. Simplicity, as Cindy has learned, is not about deprivation, but about creating space for what truly matters—intimacy with God, sacrificial community, and authentic love for others. Cindy's family motto sums it up best: “We chose to live simpler so that others can simply live.” Whether that means downsizing, shifting how you spend time, or offering your unique talents, the ultimate goal is the same—living in tune with God's melody for your life, allowing Him to enrich and use you far beyond what the culture's definition of “success” could offer. Key Takeaways: · True transformation often starts with honest self-reflection, hard questions, and small acts of obedience. · Simplifying life creates freedom—to serve, give, and connect with God and others more deeply. · God's blessings are not just material or circumstantial—they are rooted in intimacy with Him and being part of His work in the world. · Every step towards living out your faith, no matter how small, can create ripples of hope, change, and fulfillment. Let Cindy's story be an invitation: dare to ask what God might want to do with your “ordinary” life, and trust that His far, far better things await, one simple step at a time. ABOUT “FAR FAR BETTER THINGS” What happens when you've reached all your earthly goals and you're only twenty-eight years old? What if you've realized the American Dream, and although you're pretty confident it's all a big blessing from Jesus, you still feel miserably lacking in purpose and fulfillment? What makes a reasonably well-off American Christian family walk away from their perfectly scripted life—prestigious careers, dream home, lake house, nice cars, kids' sports, frequent travel, perfect church, tons of family and friends—and follow God to the ends of the earth? How would any young family have the courage to leave all the things the world tells us to strive for and instead choose a life of intentional simplifying, serial downsizing, and two major moves overseas? Cindy's memoir chronicles their family's unorthodox Christian journey that began as a result of praying in earnest: “Lord, help us to live what we say we believe.” Follow along as the DeBoers, a typical average suburban family, finds the courage to subvert a safe and comfortable life for a risky and riotous ride that led them to far, far better things.

Today, living in the heart of Grand Rapids, Michigan, they delight in their four grown children, three children-in-love, two grandchildren, and the ability to walk everywhere—especially to their small community church (back in the Reformed tradition!) just six blocks away.

In this reflection, I summarize the missionary priest's message and add to it a brief explanation of the structure of the Mass. Listen to this reflection to learn more about these things.
Do you know how to use what God has given you so you don't end up powerless? A promise from God is something God does, but authority from God is something we do with what God has given us. Authority is us taking the Word of God and doing something with it. God intends us to use the sword, which is the Word of God, to defeat the enemy. This is how we move from ignorance and powerlessness to growing in our God given authority.
Msgr. Watkins invites guest Priest Fr. Dave O'Connor to speak on his decade of work as a missionary in the southeastern Peru and to describe the joys and hardships in that place.

Shawn, Kordell, Justin and "Other Justin" dive verse by verse into chapter 5:3 - 5:6The Beatitudes continued.
There are different arenas in which we can choose to do spiritual warfare. There is agricultural, courtroom, and battlefield warfare. God truly wants prayer to be preventative in our lives. We can have things theologically that we don't yet have experientially. Intercession is meant to bring what we have theologically into reality. Jesus and His 12 never experienced sickness, tragedy, or loss. They were always on the offensive, solving other people's problems, healing the sick, and casting out demons. God desires for us to live in a place of security and safety so we can go out and fight other people's battles, rather than being stuck fighting our own.
The Missionary's Hope: Visiting missionary, Matt Schvaneveldt, preaches on Mark 5:1-20.
This series will examine the biblical framework by which we can properly understand the person and character of Jesus.

Have you ever felt lost trying to understand the Book of Revelation? Or wondered how God guides us, step by step, even when we feel like "little children"? This video reveals profound answers from Doctrine & Covenants 77-80! Summary: This comprehensive lesson unpacks the rich teachings of Doctrine & Covenants 77-80, offering insights into God's methods of revelation, personal development, and church organization. We begin by tackling the symbolic language of the Book of Revelation (D&C 77), exploring the meaning behind the "sea of glass," "four beasts," and the significance of "eyes" (knowledge) and "wings" (agency). Discover the purpose of the seven seals and the identity of the angels, including Elias, who gathers Israel and places the "seal of the living God" upon the foreheads of the faithful. Next, we delve into the practicalities of building Zion (D&C 78) through the establishment of the United Firm (later the United Order). Learn how this organization regulates the "storehouse for the poor," fosters "equality in the bonds of heavenly things," and prepares God's people to "stand independent" amidst tribulation. This section emphasizes the crucial role of commandments, councils, and unbreakable covenants in achieving unity and protecting against spiritual blindness. We then focus on personal growth (D&C 78), understanding that while we may often feel like "little children," God patiently leads us along, knowing we "cannot bear all things now". This highlights the importance of receiving all things with thankfulness and becoming "faithful and wise stewards". Finally, we explore the sacred nature of mission calls (D&C 79-80). Whether serving abroad or at home, we are assured that "it mattereth not, for ye cannot go amiss" as we declare the things we have heard, believe, and know to be true. This process of gaining testimony, coupled with the companionship of the Holy Ghost, empowers us to fulfill our divine assignments.
