#075: Becoming a Memory Making Mom

We have lots of fun on today's episode with Jessica Smartt. We're talking about her newest book Memory Making Mom. Jessica is a former teacher, current homeschool mom, and a passion Christ-follower. As you will hear in today's episode, she is so passionate about helping moms detach from the ever-present lure of technology (which, let's face it, can feel way more fun than parenting!) She also helps women recover from worry (been there, done that!) and about how to be a confident and purposeful mom.

#074: Music for the Whole Family

Today on the Simply Joyful Podcast we welcome back one of my favorites, JJ Heller! Today we're going to chat about JJ's newest album, I Dream of You: Volume II. It's a twelve track compilation of her favorite cover songs from the 1950s through today. It is such an amazing album. In fact, since recording this episode, my girls have fallen in love with this album. They listen to it over and over. They dance to it, sing to it. They just love it. There is just something so unique about JJ's voice — and yes, I did talk her into singing on this episode! You are in for a treat.

#072: Parenting Teens

Regardless of where you are at in your parenting journey, this is an amazing episode for you to listen in on (maybe take some notes). It has been such a joy to get to know Connie Albers over the years. She has been a great friend and a great mentor. What is beautiful about her new book, Parenting Beyond the Rules, is that she can be your mentor too! My copy of her book is such a mess. There is so much that I've stared and underlined. This is a book that I travel with — I have taken it literally everywhere.

Davis Carman is the president of Apologia Education Ministry. For those of you who don't homeschool, you are probably not going to realize how awesome that is.

As you will hear on this episode, Apologia offers so many more subjects than just science. Apologetics, teaching kids about their faith, and also, Davis' new book, Truths to Know Early are some of the amazing resources you can find on the website.

#69: Jonathan Pitts: How to Experience a Poured-Out Marriage

Shortly after Jonathan and Wynter Pitts celebrated fifteen years of marriage and in the midst a move from the Dallas area to Nashville, TN, Wynter's heart failed. She left Jonathan and their four daughters bewildered and heartbroken, but also hopeful.

In this episode, Jonathan will share about the last book he and Wynter wrote together, Emptied: Experiencing the Fullness of a Poured-Out Marriage. Even though we do talk about marriage in this episode, you will be encouraged whether or not you are married. Yes, we talk about marriage, but we're also going to be talking about suffering and how God does move and how he brings joy even in the midst of that suffering.

SJP #68 M.J. Thomas: Bringing Bible Adventures to Children's Books

Simply Joyful with Kristi Clover | Encouragement for your Faith and Family

05/02/19 • 35 min

Mike didn't set out to be an author. It wasn't until his nine-year-old son encouraged him to "write a book" for him to use for a book report that Mike toyed with the idea of writing. That was the inspiration that set everything in motion and The Secret of the Hidden Scrolls was brought to life.

If you have not discovered The Secret of the Hidden Scrolls yet, you are missing out! This is one of our family's favorite series of books. What is so fun is that Mike weaves adventure and Bible teaching together—think Magic Tree House books but from a Biblical perspective. It's often hard to find books for our kids to read—especially our young readers. There are so many great books that do incorporate Biblical teaching or have it hidden within the story, but what I love is this book series takes you through the Bible.

SJP #067 Trudy Cathy White: Finding the Strength to Climb the Mountains in Our Lives

Episode #67 Trudy White: Finding the Strength to Climb the Mountains in Our Lives

In today’s episode, we have none other than Trudy Cathy White to chat with and encourage us! I love having mentor moms on the show. My moms who have “been there and done that”, but let me tell you a little bit about Trudy.

Trudy is actually the only daughter of Chick-fil-A founder S. Truett Cathy and his wife Jeannette. Trudy’s life has been marked by mountains, both literally and figuratively. In her new book, Climb Every Mountain, Trudy encourages readers to have great faith no matter the situation they face.

Trudy has had a variety of roles within Chick-fil-A throughout the years — and just wait until you hear the funny story she shares about the time she was a restaurant operator (because she happened to meet her husband during that time). She and her husband John have served as missionaries in Brazil and later co-founded LifeShape and Impact 360 Institute. She’s going to share so much about Impact 360, and I can’t wait for you to hear!

I’m going to be completely honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first received Trudy’s book, but oh my goodness was I blown away! It is a book that is filled with awesome godly wisdom. I encourage you moms — even dads — to pick up a copy of this book.

SJP #066 Tim Mahoney: Patterns of Evidence: The Moses Controversy

Simply Joyful with Kristi Clover | Encouragement for your Faith and Family

03/16/19 • 44 min

In today’s episode, we’re talking with Award-winning investigative filmmaker Timothy Mahoney and his Patterns of Evidence team return with a brand-new examination into The Moses Controversy.

Teaching our kids about the validity of the Bible is the cornerstone of passing down our Christian faith. Christianity is always under fire. Now more than ever it's important to train our kids about how to know that the Bible is trustworthy and true when the world continues to bombard them that it is not.
