    Extra Ordinary: Dish Towel

    The Extra‑Ordinary Dish Towel — A Lesson in Quiet, Everyday Christian Service In this encouraging episode of The Buttermilk Pie Podcast, Leah shares a simple but powerful spiritual lesson from an ordinary dish towel. If you’re looking for Christian encouragement, practical faith, and real‑life examples of serving the Lord with gladness, this episode will feel like a warm conversation at the kitchen counter. Using the everyday dish towel as a picture of humble service, Leah talks about: choosing to serve the Lord with gladness Mary’s example of willing obedience the “bottle in the smoke” from Psalm 119 how God uses ordinary, unseen acts of service staying spiritually clean through the water of the Word second‑mile, quiet, faithful service that honors Christ You’ll hear how a dish towel absorbs messes, gets dirty doing its job, needs regular washing, dries in the dark, becomes “hole‑y,” and serves without discrimination — and how each of those traits mirrors the kind of surrendered, everyday obedience Jesus modeled in John 13. Leah also shares practical, real‑life ways to live out this kind of service at home, at church, and in relationships. If you love simple spiritual analogies, gentle Christian encouragement, and faith lessons rooted in real life, this episode will bless you. It’s a reminder that God sees every hidden act of love, every quiet moment of obedience, and every small choice to serve with joy.

    Sisters in Service: Betty Scott Stam

    This month’s Sisters in Service episode arrives right on schedule — the third week of every month — where we pause to look at the lives of ordinary women who loved the Lord and served Him with whatever they had. Some lived centuries ago, some lived in recent history, but all of them remind us that God has always used willing hearts. Printable resource to accompany this episode: https://buttermilkpie.gumroad.com/l/SISBettyStam For February, our theme is “Poured Out for His Purpose,” and the life of Betty Scott Stam paints that picture with heartbreaking clarity and breathtaking faith. Born to missionary parents and called to serve from a young age, Betty lived with her hands open — surrendering her plans, her comforts, and ultimately her life to the One she trusted completely. In this episode, we walk through her story: her early calling, her marriage to fellow missionary John Stam, the birth of their baby girl, the rising dangers in China, and the courage she carried into the final hours of her life. From the outside, her story looks like tragedy. But through the lens of Romans 8:28, we see a God who weaves purpose through every thread — even the ones we would never choose. Betty’s life wasn’t long, but it was poured out. And her obedience still bears fruit nearly a century later. If you’re in a season of pouring out — or longing to trust God with the parts of your story that don’t make sense — pull up a chair at the kitchen counter. Betty’s life has something to say to us today. If you’d like a simple way to carry this month’s theme into your everyday rhythms, you can find the “Poured Out” Kit — with memory verse cards, a cozy recipe, and reflection tools — on my page. beacons.ai/buttermilkpie
