She is the author of the children's book trilogy—Love Made, Love Gave, and Love Can. She is also the author of Love Has a Story, which invites you to explore God's love as it has existed and moved throughout (and before) time, and how it intends to transform your own life story. It is biblical theology, meets personal story work, meets your local coffee shop poet.    Aragon planned on Love Has a Story being a ten-month writing project, but it turned into a much bigger story.

Meditation is a cultural buzzword, that a lot of Christians have a knee-jerk reaction toward. Yet, we are called to meditate all through the Bible. Meditation is something I've felt a pull toward studying this year. So I've invited Quina on to talk to us about it!  How is meditation a different spiritual discipline than prayer?  When did meditation become important to you?  I've read your children's books and they give such good truth to ponder. How has the topics you've chosen allowed you to mull over and focus on truth?  Have things in your personal life made that hard? How did you overcome? Would you share with us a meditation?

Love has a story. It's bigger than you. It's bigger than me. On Thursday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, our guest, poet Quina Aragon shares how, before the foundations of the earth, the great storyteller was penning a story that included you. Love was thinking about you, imagining ways to showcase His love for you, and planning to rescue you. This was not one of those sentimental loves, but a love that would traverse the wilderness in search of and for His beloved . . . and give everything—His life, blood, wounds, hope, and an invitation to be family.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshow/wrmbSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And it’s a story written just for you by the greatest storyteller of all time.This week on podcast, I had the incredible privilege of talking with Quina Aragon about her powerful new book, Love Has a Story. In our conversation, Quina shares how God, in His infinite love, has been writing a story of redemption and relationship since before the foundation of the world—and you’re a part of it. Through poetic meditations and moving prose, Quina invites us to discover the depths of God’s love: A love that existed before time began. A love that knows and cherishes every intimate detail of your life. A love that gave everything—His life, His blood, His wounds—to bring you into His family. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, lost, or unworthy, this episode will remind you that God’s love is bigger and more beautiful than we could ever imagine. Take a moment to listen and be reminded that YOU are cherished, chosen, and loved beyond measure.

She set out to write a book about God’s extravagant love. It was supposed to be a 10 month project and then life blindsided Quina. And that brought her to the place where she thought God hated her. Then, the book that should have taken 10 months took 4 years. In that time, the silence of God, and the lack of answers gave way to the comfort of God and a hard won assurance of God’s love, for her, for our world. Quina Aragon, spoken word artist and author of Love Has A Story: 100 Meditations on the Enduring Love of God, invites you to explore God’s love as it has existed and moved throughout (and before) time, and how it intends to transform your own life story. Quina’s book begins with a confession. She admits she’s struggled to forgive, struggled with lust, struggled with intense bouts of anxiety and depression, and with believing God hated her. Even as she wrote this book. Shawna asks Quina, “Where does your strength to be vulnerable come from?” Lastly, Quina leaves us to ponder, “Could you have the courage to believe love has a story, and you’re a part of it?”Support the show: https://give.moodyradio.org/fall-share?v=def&appeal=MRWM&_gl=1%2a142i9we%2a_ga%2aNTE4MTE5MmUtY2U1Yy00YmQ3LWU4MmUtNjEwYTQ5YzAyODRj%2a_ga_4WH1937046%2aMTY5NTExODEwMS4yOTkuMC4xNjk1MTE4MTAxLjYwLjAuMA..&_ga=2.197426156.215784306.1695059984-1182841406.166859587See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Aye y'all what's good?! On this episode, Quina Aragon and I chopped it up about her new book "Love Can." It's coming out in February, and it is the third book in a children's series about the Trinity. The First, "Love Made," is about how the Triune God created the world out of love for us. The Second, "Love Gave," is about friendship and the sacrificial love of Christ. And the third, "Love Can" speaks to the power of love that resides in us via the person of the Holy Spirit. The latter half of the convo is a raw look into the life of someone who has endured a lot of shots to the body. Quina's story the past few years has been one of chronic pain and fatigue and we walked through what that pilgrimage has been like. You can preorder Quina's book "Love Can" here: https://www.harvesthousepublishers.com/books/love-can-9780736974400 Follow her on Twitter: @Quina_Aragon Instagram: @quina_aragon Website: @https://quinaaragon.com/ You can find her writings, spoken words, and other displays of her gifts on her website.

Quina Aragon shares with us her God story and she is navigating growing closer to God in hard times.

A healthy identity comes from understanding how truth gives us insight into ourselves. Truth told, our deepest yearning is to understand where we came from, and what is our purpose in this World. Our significance comes from the Creator. In this week's podcast, my guest Quina Aragon will talk about Helping Kids Recognize their Identity in Christ.  There are so many ways we can help our kids with their identity in Christ. Quina talks about how we should go about pointing out sin in our children without making them feel condemned. If we use the biblical principles to instruct and coach our children in truth, we will see them react better to our discipline since it is focused on getting to their hearts. “If we're not treating our children with love and compassion, then I think talking about sin and the fact that they are sinners, becomes somewhat hypocritical and something that can be even more damaging to them.” Quina shares about her two books Love Made and Love Gave, what drove her to write them and how she's learned about God's love through writing them. We'll be giving away her book Love Gave. Tune in to IG @gemsofmotherhood to see how you can win her book.

During this season of Lent, I wanted to introduce you to a new friend with a beautiful resource for your heart and the whole family to prepare for the celebration of Easter. Quina Aragon was born in the Philippines but raised in FL where she became friends with a family who introduced her to Christ. It’s this relationship with her Savior that freed her from the exhausting pursuit of significance- and has been the motivation behind her work as a spoken word artist, children’s author, and poet. She’s also the mama of an adorable five year old and she and her husband serve in their local church ministry. In this episode, we dive right into a conversation about the Enneagram and her two books Love Made and Love Gave. Download the free Enneagram for Moms Guidebook.

We're back with a brand new season of The Stone Table. Today we're talking with author and poet Quina Aragon about her children's book, "Love Made." Over the course of the conversation we talk about creation, the Trinity, and the importance of teaching good theology to our kids.

As you make the meals, change the diapers, settle the arguments, and fold the laundry day after day, do you ever wonder if any of it really matters? With so many immediate needs in front of us, it can be easy to lose sight of our eternal purpose. In this episode, Emily and Laura discuss some simple (yet profound) truths that help clarify our destination and goal as believers in Christ. When we remember that we’re being conformed to the image of Jesus and one day we’ll dwell with him for eternity, we can hold things loosely in this life and embrace our role as servants doing the Master’s work—even if it’s the same work day after day.

Read alouds aren’t just for our little ones. We can find great encouragement and joy in having the word of God read over us and explained. So in this special episode, Emily and Laura invite John Piper to read and reflect on what he considers to be the greatest chapter in the Bible, Romans 8. As he walks us through this incredible passage, John Piper connects its themes of suffering and loss to motherhood, encouraging us that no matter how deep the waters of our suffering, God’s unshakeable love is deeper still.

Quina and I chat about meeting Jesus as a teenager, her high school English teacher encouraging her to perform her first poem, and how her children's book, Love Made came to be.  2:50 Quina shares her faith journey with us, when she came to know Jesus. "Pride was my god and once I got into a big public school to play basketball for them I just began to see my self-righteousness get confronted by my slavery to sin, meaning, when I went into freshman year I would say, I would never do this or that, only these types of girls do this. And sure enough, my freshman and sophomore year I started to see my sin snowball in all kinds of ways, particularly in lust. That was really something that God used to help me see that as Jesus say, 'If you sin, you are a slave to sin.' And thankfully, He brought a friend into my life...As I got to know her I saw something different about her and as I got to know her family saw something very different about them, mainly love." 6:10 "Soon after that God began to really just draw me to Himself. I realized that I was empty and there was nothing that was going satisfy me. I was popular. We were well off. I had everything that, I guess, a high schooler might dream of....and none of it was satisfying me. God used that sense of emptiness to really lead me to open one of the Bible's I had in my room..." Her friend shared the gospel with her when she was 16. 7:16 Quinabegins sharing how she uses her gifting as a creative (spoken word poet, author, etc.) to glorify God. 9:42 Quinaspeaks about her spoken word videos/short films.  TO VIEW: Listen and Live The Slaughter When I Consider the Darkness Love Made Wine Mixed with Myrrh MORE 11:37 Quina shares a spoken word piece, Genesis 1 & 2 summary 12:52 Quina shares how she goes about creating.  A common theme being prayer.

Whether you’re the crafty mom who can beautify anything, the mom who is always coming up with fun new adventures, or the mom who feels caught in the doldrums of daily life  God’s word teaches that we’re all creative. We’re all image bearers of the Creator. In this episode, Emily and Laura interview Quina Aragon—a wife, mom, and artist—on creativity and the gospel. As God’s ambassadors, we’re called to cultivate the earth in order to proclaim his name. Whether we make a delicious meal, comb a child’s hair, or help paint watercolor masterpieces, our creativity fills our homes and communities with the knowledge of the glory of God.

No matter how we fail—including in creative endeavors—our righteousness before God doesn’t change. We’re secure in God’s love through Christ forever. Let’s consider how this reality frees us to be more creative as we live out the mission to spread God’s authority to all the earth, making known his glory. God created mankind in his image to serve as ambassadors, acting on his behalf, to fill the earth with the knowledge of his glory. What does it mean for you to be an ambassador of God in this mission? How does your family pursue this mission? God told Adam and Eve to cultivate the earth for his glory. Jesus taught us to pray for God’s kingdom—which is full of his glory—to come to earth. Jesus gave us the Great Commission to go and make more disciples to fill the earth spreading the news of God’s glory. This mission is throughout scripture! How do creativity and cultivation propel this mission? We’ll never be perfect ambassadors in this mission, which is why we need Christ. Jesus was the only perfect ambassador, and through his perfect record, we have his righteousness as our own. How does knowing God’s love for us in Christ free us to try new, creative things? Being creative isn’t confined to a particular artistic style, but rather we see creativity as we take what God has made and cultivate it into something beautiful—from a bouquet of flowers delivered to a friend to an organized filing system implemented for your church. What are some ways you are gifted creatively? How can you use your creativity to serve your family, church, and/or community to spread God’s glory? Part of motherhood is nurturing our children, including nurturing their creativity. What are some ways your children image God’s creativity? How can you help them use their creativity to serve others? What are some ways your family can serve together?

On today’s episode of the Journeywomen podcast, I’m chatting with Quina Aragon about maintaining a heart for ministry. We talked about everything from our own fears in ministry to how the gospel encourages us in the ministry the Lord has set before us.   So you’ll know her a little better, Quina is a wife, mother, and artist who enjoys copyediting, creating spoken word videos, and writing intermittently for The Gospel Coalition and The Witness BCC. She lives in Tampa, Florida, and is a member of Living Faith Bible Fellowship where she serves as a small group ministry leader. Quina’s first children’s book is set to release in February 2019 by Harvest House Publishers, so be on the lookout for that!   I am so thankful for Quina’s encouragement to seek to glorify God in whatever ministry he has set before us.
