As much as we’d love to believe we are in control of all things, much of life is unexpected. We didn’t see it coming. And maybe, that’s a gift! From a cross country move to a senior year injury to an unexpected death, Vonna was overwhelmed by the “unexpecteds” of life. It wasn’t until later that she realized not knowing was a blessing in disguise. Vonna Laue is a speaker and author of Glad I Didn’t Know: Lessons Learned Through Life’s Challenges and Unexpected Blessings. Vonna admits, “If we knew the difficulties we would encounter, we might not be obedient, and we would miss out on what God has planned.” When we relinquish control and just trust the Lord for each next step, He is faithful! Also in this episode... “Mom, God is so faithful!” Shawna’s daughter said when Shawna answered her call. A series of events all throughout the day led Haven into exactly what she needed when the storm hit. God is faithful. He's got you! Perry shares, “God put a kingdom dream in my heart. I moved across the country to step into it. It was his dream but then I inserted myself into it. Tried to shape it in my image not God’s. Then it crashed. Last, the legacy of Shawna’s dad is that he loved God and loved people. And he did it one step at a time. The way we want to be remembered starts with acts of kindness today.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshow/wgnbSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wouldn't it be nice if our kids innately felt grateful for all we (and others) do for them? That they naturally expressed gratitude and could see how blessed they are?  Certainly, some kids are more predisposed than others, but it's been my experience, and I'm guessing yours too, that this doesn't come naturally to most kids. Instead, gratitude is a skill that needs to be taught and practiced repeatedly.  So the big question is: how do we teach it?  Today's episode will focus on three actionable, realistic ways to teach your kids gratitude.  Click play NOW to jump in!

We delve into the parable of the laborers in the vineyard (Matthew 20:1-16) to understand the importance of serving out of love and gratitude, not out of a desire for reward.We discuss the contrast between serving for God's sake and serving for our own benefit, highlighting the importance of recognizing our worth as servants of God. We also emphasize the grace of God, which allows us to be accepted and loved regardless of our past or present shortcomings.Finally, we encourage viewers to shift their perspective from one of pride to one of gratitude, acknowledging that God is the ultimate source of blessings and that He freely bestows them upon us.

We never know what we're going to face every day. We will face unexpected, unwanted, and uncomfortable pain and circumstances in life. When it seems like life is falling apart, God is working on the brokenness. Looking at the parable of the hidden treasure in Matthew 13, Jesus teaches that unexpected blessings are often found in unexpected events. God will never waste the unexpected, but are we willing to surrender the very thing that is causing pain in our lives so that He can cover it with His grace and love? God wants to use your circumstances and He wants to use you to bring His Kingdom here to earth. Listen to this sermon about unexpected blessings in unexpected circumstances in the third and final part of our Stories series.Check out our video version of this episode: https://youtu.be/dkFbcySVaZMSubscribe to our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/8wmeCwBf_zkLearn more about us at chestnutmountain.orgFollow us on Facebook & Instagram @chestnutmtn_Don't forget to subscribe to this podcast, leave a review, and let us know what you think.

Have you ever felt like you're not where you should be in your business journey? Or maybe that your big plans just aren't coming together as quickly as you'd hoped? In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing some of my own behind-the-scenes challenges.  Let's face it, we all have setbacks and moments of doubt. But it's how we navigate those moments that truly matters.  We'll explore the power of trust, embracing imperfection, and finding balance in the pursuit of our goals. Key Points: ✔️ Unmet Expectations: We'll talk about those frustrating times when things don't go according to plan, and how to shift our perspective to see the hidden blessings. ✔️ The Illusion of 100% Focus: Discover how the belief that success requires singular focus can actually hold us back. I'll share my own aha moment and how I learned to embrace balance. ✔️ God's Got You: Sometimes the path to our dreams takes unexpected twists and turns. Learn how to trust in divine timing and embrace the "this or something better" mindset. This episode is a reminder that even the most successful entrepreneurs face struggles and setbacks. It's okay to not have it all figured out, and it's okay to feel frustrated at times. But through it all, we can find strength in our faith, learn valuable lessons, and continue to move forward. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don't forget to leave a review, drop a comment and join us in The Better Club!

Yet, as he and his wife Becky sit down with us, their tale isn't one of despair, but of unexpected growth and an enriching journey towards health, hope, and faith.

Together, Brad and Becky reveal how leaning on one another, fortifying their faith, and embracing change and community transformed their ordeal into a story of hope and healing.An oasis of fruit trees was just the beginning of Becky Corley's story. Beneath their branches, a profound transformation took root, as Becky and Brad navigated the tumultuous path of cancer treatment. Our conversation meanders through the emotional landscape of grappling with such a diagnosis, the power of a plant-based diet, and how these trials led Brad to declare cancer as the best thing to ever happen to him.
