Podcasts about Mundane

How can the mundane of motherhood be extraordinary? Alex and Scott talk with Simona Gorton, an author, wife, and mother deeply engaged in local church ministry and missions. Drawing on her experiences with 9Marks and her work translating resources into over 60 languages, she emphasizes the importance of the local church as a training ground and the value of serving where God has placed you, even in seemingly ordinary roles. Simona also discusses her book Mothering Against Futility, which explores Ecclesiastes and the tension between the mundane and the eternal. She challenges mothers and young women to embrace the daily, unseen work as meaningful in the Kingdom of Heaven, connecting everyday tasks to God's eternal purposes. Key Topics The theological foundation of motherhood and everyday tasks Lessons from Ecclesiastes on finding meaning amid daily repetition Advice to young women considering missions: start with local service Encouragement for churches to affirm and support women and mothers in their roles Practical ways to disciple children to value godly character over recognition Download the transcript for this episode.

In episode 4 of Season 4, we discuss the inherent skepticism that many Christians still maintain towards modern medical treatment. We speak with Lauren Hunter who was raised as a Christian Scientist, a denomination of Christianity that, rather ironically, does not acknowledge the science of disease. We also interview Dr. John Horgan, assistant professor of history at Concordia University in Wisconsin who specializes in the history of diseases and epidemics, about the genesis of germ theory. Finally, we sit down with Dr. Mark Lewis, a gastrointestinal oncologist who describes the role of faith and prayer when his patients undergo treatment for cancer.

Ministry of the Mundane #RTTBROS #Nightlight Ministry of the Mundane #RTTBROS #Nightlight Ministry of The Mundane"And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour. And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days." - Joshua 6:2-3Imagine the scene: thousands of armed warriors walking silently around an impenetrable city, day after day, with nothing visible happening. No dramatic breach in the walls, no enemy surrender, no apparent progress. Just the monotonous shuffle of sandaled feet on dusty ground, the weight of armor, and the relentless Middle Eastern sun beating down.For six days, they marched. Six days of what must have felt utterly pointless to human eyes. Six days when some surely wondered if they had misheard God's voice, if this strategy made any sense, if they were wasting precious time and energy on a fool's errand.This is the ministry of the mundane, the sacred calling to remain faithful when nothing seems to be happening.The Temptation to Quit Before the BreakthroughHow many of us abandon our marching on day five? Day six? We read our Bibles faithfully for months with no dramatic spiritual breakthrough. We pray consistently for a wayward child who shows no signs of change. We serve in our local church week after week, often feeling invisible and unappreciated. We choose kindness toward a difficult spouse, forgiveness toward an ungrateful teenager, patience with an elderly parent, over and over again, with little evidence that our efforts are making any difference.The enemy of our souls knows exactly when to whisper his lies: "This isn't working." "God has forgotten you." "You're wasting your time." "Everyone else sees immediate results, why don't you?"But the men of Israel teach us something profound about faith: treat every stage like it's your last stage. March around that wall on day six with the same dedication you had on day one, knowing that your breakthrough might be just one more lap away.The Hidden Work of FaithfulnessWhat we often fail to understand is that God is always working, even when we cannot see it. Those walls of Jericho weren't crumbling because of the marching itself, they were going to fall because of God's power. But God had chosen to exercise that power through the faithful obedience of His people, day after ordinary day.Your daily faithfulness is not mundane to God. Every time you choose patience over anger, every morning you open His Word even when you don't feel like it, every act of service performed without recognition, these are the very building blocks of Christian character. This is not the preliminary work before "real ministry" begins; this IS the real ministry.Consider the parent who faithfully corrects the same behavior in their child for the hundredth time. We long to speak once and see permanent transformation, but God's design involves repetition, patience, and long-term faithfulness. The fruit may not be visible today, or even this year, but every faithful correction is a seed planted in eternity.Keep MarchingWhatever wall you're facing today, whether it's a difficult relationship, a financial struggle, a health challenge, or simply the ordinary demands of following Christ in a fallen world—remember the men of Israel. They didn't see the end from the beginning. They simply trusted God's word and kept putting one foot in front of the other.Your mundane faithfulness matters more than you know. That daily Bible reading is shaping your heart. Those patient corrections are forming your children's character. That quiet service is building God's kingdom. That perseverance through difficulty is developing your faith.Don't stop marching on day six. The walls may fall tomorrow.Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros

“Every morning in SEAL training, my instructors, who at the time were all Vietnam veterans, would show up in my barracks room and the first thing they'd do is inspect my bed. If you did it right, the corners would be square, the covers would be pulled tight, the pillow centred just under the headboard, and the extra blanket folded neatly at the foot of the rack. It was a simple task, mundane at best. But every morning we were required to make our bed to perfection. It seemed a little ridiculous at the time, particularly in light of the fact that we were aspiring to be real warriors. Tough, battle hardened SEALs. But the wisdom of this simple act has been proven to me many times over. If you make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride and it will encourage you to do another task and another, and another. And by the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that the little things in life matter. If you can't do the little things right, you'll never be able to do the big things right. And if by chance you have a miserable day, you will come home to a bed that is made that you made. And a made bed gives you encouragement that tomorrow will be better.” That is an excerpt from Admiral McRaven's Commencement Address at Texas University in 2014. And it's the heart of this week's episode. Simple, mundane tasks that carry far more weight than you may think.  You can subscribe to this podcast on:  Podbean | Apple Podcasts | Stitcher | Spotify | TUNEIN Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin Areas of Focus: The Foundation Of All Solid Productivity Systems.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. If you were to read the comments on any productivity or time management YouTube video, you'll find many well-meaning commentators talking about this app, or that new method or hack to play with.  The truth is few of them will work and most involve adding more and more layers of complexity which only stops you from doing the work that matters. Real improvements in your time management and productivity comes from the boring and mundane. It's the sitting down to respond to your emails and messages every day. It's taking the laundry to the washing machine and hanging it up after it's been washed. And yes, it's making your bed each morning before you leave to take your kids to school.  Doing the simple, basic tasks each day whether you're in the mood or not, is the secret to massively improved outcomes. It means when you get home after a particularly stressful day, everything is calm, peaceful and ready for you to relax get some rest.  It's how you avoid getting home, stressed out and exhausted only to find your breakfast things are still on your dining table, your bed's unmade and your laundry basket is overflowing with clothes that are beginning to give off a rather unpleasant odour.  And, yes, it means giving yourself five to ten minutes each day to map out your day. To see where your appointments are and what tasks you must get done.  None of this is complicated. It's basic, it's almost laughably unimportant, yet it isn't. These are the critical things each day that ensure you remain on top of everything and know what needs to be done, where you should be and when and leaves you feeling calm, serene even, and ready for the next day.  And with all that said, it's time for me to hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Charlie. Charlie asks, hi Carl, over the last twelve months, I feel everything has spiralled out of control. I get home exhausted and just never seem able to catch up. My Task list is out of control and my calendar seems to fill up with random meetings each day. What can I do to get some control back into my life?  Hi Charlie, thank you for your question.  This is something that can happen from time to time. Things spiralling out of control. It's often because we say “yes” a little too freely, or we stop following some basic principles.  The basic principles of better time management and productivity are planning your days and week. Not in a micro-management way, but more in a what's happening tomorrow or this week way.  It's also understanding that in most cases you can cancel or reschedule a meeting. I've often looked at my diary for tomorrow and seen I was over scheduled and realised I needed to postpone some meetings or rearrange some of the things I had planned to do.  It's never the end of the world if you have to reschedule. It's just a part of life.  For example, if you're scheduled to pick your kids up from school but realise that if you do you'll not be able to finish the proposal that must go out today, you could ask your partner or parents to help you out today.  It's only today. Or, you may decide to ask to be excused from a team meeting so you can finish the proposal.  We always have options. Yet, if you want more options, plan the day the evening before and you will see any potential conflicts with plenty of time to explore all options.  If you don't plan your day, it's likely you will see the problem you have a couple of hours before you have to pick your kids up. You're not leaving yourself with much time to sort out the conflict.  It's the same reason why weekly planning is critical. The weekly planning session gives you the “big picture” view of your week. It your chance to see any potential issues well before they become crises.  This is the number one reason you will find you feel behind, rushed and overwhelmed. You're not giving yourself a moment to pause to look ahead for potential storms so you can plot an alternative route through.  To start getting back in control, do a weekly plan for next week. Open you calendar and first look for any conflicts—these are where you have inadvertently double booked yourself. You cannot be in two places at once, so pick one.  Next, open your task manager. This is probably where the bigger problems lay. When we lose control we start throwing all sorts into our tasks managers. It's easy to put stuff there.  If your sense of control has completely gone, it's possible you may have stopped looking at your task manager altogether. If that's the case, open it.  Now you have a choice. You could declare task management bankruptcy and delete everything. Don't worry, if something's genuinely important, you'll be reminded of it somewhere. You can then add it back later.  The second choice is to go through everything in your task manager one by one. Delete what's no longer relevant, update what is by making sure the task is written in an actionable way. In other words you have an actionable verb in the task so it's clear what you need to do.  Then for anything in your inbox, ask the three processing questions: What is it? What do I need to do? When will I do it.  Then, organise your tasks by stuff you will do this week, next week, next month.  Once done, go back to your this week list and, with your calendar open, put the day you will do the tasks next week.  Now be smart here. If you have six hours of meetings on Wednesday, avoid putting tasks on that day. You won't have time. Not when you remember you will need to spend some time on your email and messages and any other matters that will inevitably pop up once the week gets going.  Anything not in your this week list can be left undated. Hopefully, many of those will sort themselves out. If they don't, you can look at them again when you do you next weekly planning session and decide if they need to be brought forward into the following week.  Just doing these basic weekly planning steps, you'll instantly give yourself a sense of control.  Yet, this is only as good as your ability to say no.  You cannot be in two places at once, and you're not going to be able to complete sixty tasks and attend seven hours of meetings in one day. If that's what your day looks like stop.  You're going to have to say no to something and the sooner you do this the easier it is to do it.  The consequences of not doing these planning sessions are missed deadlines, over booked calendars and a lot of late nights and weekends spent catching up, feeling stressed and blaming your company.  The blame game solves nothing unless you're willing to say “no. This has go to stop”. If you're not willing to do that, don't complain. A bit harsh, I know, but you always have a choice remember.  More basics are giving yourself time each day for your messages and emails. I'm always surprised how unwilling people are to protect time for dealing with these. 99% of the time it's out of control email, Slack and Teams inboxes that people are most stressed about. And I know, if you don't spend sometime on your communications daily, they will backlog quickly.  And when I say quickly I mean it. One day missed will mean you will need double the time tomorrow. And that keeps increasing until you decide to spend a whole day clearing up your email.  If you want to avoid spending days clearing your email inbox, protect time every day for dealing with it. That has to be a non-negotiable.  I believe it was Einstein who said insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.  Well unless you protect time for managing your communications each day, you'll be spending days clearing your inbox every month. Nothing will change unless you are prepared to change the way you schedule your day.  So there you go, Charlie. The important basics of getting back control and staying in control, is daily and weekly planning and protecting daily time for dealing with communications. Do that, and you'll soon find yourself regaining control.  I know it sounds simple, perhaps too simple but it goes back to what Admiral McCraven said in his commencement address, “if you want to change the world, begin by making your bed.”  Thank you for your question, Charlie, and thank you to you too for listening.  Oh, and just a quick update, this podcast will be on holiday for a couple of weeks. We'll be back in a couple of weeks.  It just remains for me to wish you all a very very productive week.   

We meet Ann Carrington at her studio in Margate! The use of discarded, found and multiples of objects is a fundamental element of Ann's sculptures and wider practice. All objects are saturated with cultural meaning which, as an artist, she seeks to explore, unravel and investigate. Mundane objects such as knives and forks, barbed wire, pins and paintbrushes come with their own readymade histories and associations which can be unravelled and analysed if rearranged, distorted or realigned to give them new meaning as sculpture.Follow: @anncarringtonartVisit: https://anncarrington.co.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

I want to share with you something many people overlook: the beauty of a mundane life. Your grandparents might have called it real life—the everyday, ordinary moments of living in an imperfect world. While the culture chases the next big thing, the spiritual person recognizes that even the most mundane moments are opportunities to glorify God. Hidden in the ordinary are the blessings that only a spiritual mind can see.

In this week's episode of The Perceptive Photographer, I explored something that doesn't always get the love it deserves—mundane photography. You know, the kind of work that isn't flashy or dramatic. It's not towering landscapes or intense street moments. It's ferns on the forest floor. The corner of a quiet room. The way sunlight hits the sink at 3 p.m.

Typically an hour in length, an intimate group of all ages, genders and races, from all over the world gathers on Zoom to sit in guided meditation, contemplate a reading and then share in conversation. Each gathering is centered around a spiritual theme chosen and guided by Davin. Youngs Buddhism is often the framework through which the readings and practices are approached, but no particular religious or philosophical ideology is subscribed to. There are no requirements, special skills or abilities that are necessary to attend. Just an open heart and a desire to connect with a community of seekers.

In this deep reflective and wild as hell episode. I sat down with author, photographer, and podcast host James Walters. For a conversation that flows from the power of perspective. To the absurd brilliance of The Big Lebowski, and what is to be the dude man.James shares how he built a career telling other people's stories through his photography. Until life handed him a hard reset and forced him to ask What now? That question sparked a decade-long transformation. Leading to his podcast A Joyful Rebellion, and his storytelling-driven book Meditations of the Mundane. Let's not forget his renewed commitment to writing his own life's script.We dived into how "boring" things. Like bike tracks in dried mud or sandstone retaining walls. Which when look at it from a different lens can hold surprising meaning. We talked about creative burnout, artistic reinvention. Looking at how comedy, photography, film, and subversive design. all intersect in the weirdest, most brilliant ways.If you love rabbit holes, cult classic cinema, philosophy with bite. Brutally honest conversations about making art in a chaotic world, this one's for you.Where to Find the Guest?

May is all about moms as we celebrate Mother's Day! In this episode, we hear from Sammie's friend & first time mom, Mandi Boreing, about her transition into motherhood this past year and how Jesus has worked in & through her in this season. Mandi married her husband, Andrew, a little over two years ago and since then they've lived in three houses in three cities, welcomed their first baby boy in April of 2024 and are expecting baby boy #2 in just a few months! As someone who has longed to be a mom for as long as she can remember, the reality of postpartum and parenting hit her harder than she expected. She credits only the Lord's strength for getting her through and reminding her that she was made for this.If you are someone who longs for a relationship, marriage, motherhood, or anything in between, we pray this conversation blesses you & encourages you to wait on the Lord and always trust Him and His timing. We chat about:- What motherhood has taught us about the Gospel - What advice we would give to moms-to-be or women wishing to be moms - Being in a season of waiting for marriage or a family - Resources for encouragement My own experience has been one of growth. It happens little by little. Day by day. Mundane moment by mundane moment. It happens by digging our roots deeper into God's Word and who we have known him to be. It happens by reaching up, asking him to sustain us in our weakness and limitations. And it happens by looking out, faithfully doing the next hard thing and trusting him to bring us “from strength to strength” (Psalm 84:7). May this episode serve as an encouragement to you in your own motherhood journey - He is with you and for you! Here are some things we mentioned in this episode: Risen Motherhood MinistryEvery Moment Holy (so good!) - InstagramBe sure to stay up to date with Abundant Life: You Were Made for More by visiting our blog - and if you're loving the podcast, send guest recommendations to us or leave us a star-rating/review on your favorite listening platform to spread the word about the you were made for more message.You Were Made for More Social Media: FacebookTwitterInstagram

Ever feel like fatherhood is just an endless loop of laundry, lunch-packing, and late-night Lego injuries? You're not alone—and you are making a difference. In this episode, we talk about the quiet strength it takes to do the “mundane” work of being a dad, and why that work might be more meaningful than it seems. From holding down a job that might not spark fireworks to praying for your family when you're running on fumes, we highlight five things godly dads don't get tired of doing. As Colossians 3:23 reminds us, the most ordinary things become sacred when done for the Lord...even remembering to grab your quarter from the Aldi cart for the hundredth time. So if you're worn out, hang in there. You're building something eternal, one routine at a time.   Become a member of the fatherhood guard: https://manhoodjourney.org/donate/ Buy Kent's latest book Don't Bench Yourself here: Don't Bench Yourself on Amazon  Support the show and upgrade your fatherhood swag. Shop Range Leather and get 15% OFF with code MJ15

Send us a textWhat happens when you've checked all the boxes of success but still feel something's missing? James Walters, photographer, author, and host of "A Joyful Rebellion" podcast, joins us to explore the transformative power of creative risk-taking and authentic living.James shares his fascinating journey from commercial photographer (who initially used photography to escape math class) to wedding photographer capturing unpredictable moments, to helping others tell their brand stories. This evolution mirrors his philosophy on life—embracing change and finding fulfillment through creative expression and self-awareness.At the heart of our conversation is the concept of a "joyful rebellion," that pivotal moment when you realize external success markers aren't bringing internal fulfillment. James explains how many people diligently follow others' scripts—parents, teachers, society—only to discover they're not living their own story. The rebellion comes in reclaiming authorship of your life, sometimes through small adjustments and other times through complete reinvention.Perhaps most surprising is James's counterintuitive approach to creativity: making certain aspects of life intentionally "boring." By streamlining decisions about wardrobe, food, or other personally low-priority areas, we free mental energy for pursuits that genuinely matter. As James puts it, "Look for something in your life that you can make boring, repetitive, a no-brainer, and that leaves so much more space to put your energy into being creative."James also discusses his books—from "Accessory to Marriage" chronicling outrageous wedding photography stories to "Meditations of the Mundane," where he photographs and creates stories about everyday discarded objects. His current project aims to help children develop storytelling skills through photography.Listen now to discover why awareness is the essential first step to meaningful change and embrace James's powerful mantra: "Nothing changes if nothing changes." Your own joyful rebellion might be closer than you think.Want to be a guest on Living the Dream with Curveball?
