The One Thing
10/18/23 • 9 min
Choosing Jesus over the demands and expectations of family, work, hobbies, worldly gain, and notoriety, exemplifies a posture of surrender and humility, proving our deepest longings are met not through our efforts, but through a surrendered heart that is eager to receive God’s grace, wisdom, and love if we choose. In this devotion, you will be inspired as you hear how one woman chose what was most important, in spite of her culture and the risk of ridicule, judgment, and rejection.

How God's Love Heals Through Brokenness and Surrender
Marriage is the schoolroom from where one learns the hard lessons about love, brokenness, and surrender. What better way to engage in this authentic conversation than with my brave and sweet husband, Mark! In this episode, Mark and I will share some of the most life-shaping moments in our relationship. Throughout the course of our 36 years of life together, we have grown to value the sweetness of surrender and the beauty of restoration as we've yielded our broken lives to Him in faith. It's an honest, imperfect, conversation that we hope you find helpful and encouraging regardless if you are married, single, and or in a relationship. For the steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies are new every morning!

Meditation: Colossians 3
Life in Christ is hard when we look to the things of this world rather than the ways of Christ. In the book of Colossians, we are instructed to, "set our hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God." In this podcast, you will meditate on the beautiful words of the Apostle Paul, who instructs us to set our mind on things above, not on earthly things, and to let the grace of God transform our lives as we "put off" our old ways and "put on" the new life we have in Christ.
