When Normal Feels Like a Gift (Gifts Series · Ep. 1)

Ruthe and Tim open a new series on “gifts”—not bows-and-boxes, but the quiet mercies that meet us in real life. From Ruthe’s tender story of traveling during Karla’s chemo to the lasting wisdom her daughter shared during that season, they explore how moments of peace can feel like grace—especially in times that are anything but normal. Tim brings humor and honesty through small, everyday encounters that reveal how connection and gratitude can appear in unexpected places. Together, they unpack the difference between gifts and talents, hold space for both faith and agnostic perspectives, and reflect on Matthew 6:34: “Do not worry about tomorrow.” You’ll hear about dog hugs, the freedom of surrender, and how even “bad gifts” can shape character and compassion.
