About this listen

 It’s snowing in Cincinnati. There’s a Christmas tree mug involved. And somewhere between Amazon returns, pine needles on the floor, and one more school pickup line, a holy question sneaks in: Is ordinary life beneath God’s notice … or exactly where He loves to meet us? In this episode of The Deep Water Show, Jackie and Christi linger in the beauty and tension of ordinary days ... the small, unseen moments we’re tempted to rush past in a world that glorifies bigger, faster, louder. Together, they explore what it means to develop a spiritual discipline of noticing. In this conversation: 1. Why our culture has trained us to dismiss the ordinary as dull 2. How hidden faithfulness shapes a deeper sense of meaning in life 3. What Scripture means when it tells us not to despise small beginnings 4. Why the Kingdom of Heaven looks suspiciously like a mustard seed 5. How a smile, a breath, a chipped mug, or a quiet pause can become sacred ground From Alaska winters to kitchen lights in the middle of the night, this episode is an invitation to slow down and discover that God is not waiting for the extraordinary — He’s already present in the everyday. Because when you learn to notice the small things, you don’t just find meaning. You find Him.
