From Eden to Eternity by The Daily Grace Co: Link to Study

Matthew 7: 3-5 - Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.

Welcome To the Table. Are you ever in a space or community that isn’t faith-centered? Maybe you work in a place where faith isn’t mentioned often? Or you sit in the bleachers surrounded by people who may or may not believe in Jesus? In this episode, we’re talking about what it looks like to show up authentically, in all spaces, and love the people around you. This feels like a common theme, but we’re talking about so many other things today too, so grab a seat and join us for this week’s conversation ☕

Welcome To the Table. Anyone find themselves in a new community lately? Maybe you’ve started a new job, moved to a new school, or joined a new team. Maybe you’ve just started going to a new Bible study, joined toddler time at the library, or reconnecting with a group of friends from a past season. There’s a lot of opportunities to foster new community. My guest this week, Jess Clemons, is here to talk about what that looks like to start a new community and encourage other women who may be in a similar season. As always, we’re not just talking about community. We’re chatting about busy-ness, prayer, time with God, relationships, spiritual warfare, etc. So, let’s get into it. Grab a seat and join us for this week’s conversation ☕

Welcome To the Table. Just based on the title, you probably already feel that familiar uncomfortable feeling of stepping outside of your comfort zone. I’m so grateful that my friend, Katie Racki, agreed to sit down and talk about how hard it can be to seek out new community when your personality tends to be a little more reserved. Regardless of your personality, it can be hard to step out of your comfort zone and into something new. But, He always gives us strength for the hard things and grace when we don’t quite know what to do or how to do it. Grab a seat and join us as we dive into today’s conversation ☕

I am sitting down with my sister to talk about what community looks like for us, how they support us (and we show up for them), and why it’s important to live life with others.

Welcome To the Table. We’re jumping back into relationships today, specifically chatting about the season of engagement. As you’ll soon see, there’s so much of this conversation that is for me and hopefully you too. There are several themes that keep coming up in this episode, but the one that really stands out to me is this idea of obedience – which we often think of when we’re parenting children but truly applies to each one of us today. Obedience to what the Lord calls you to, sticking to the convictions that the Holy Spirit places on your heart, uncovering and applying what the Word says about the way we live – it’s all a part of obeying the Lord and laying down my own thoughts, ideas, wants if (when) they don’t align with His. Be prepared to be challenged and encouraged – you've been warned 😉
