Lighten Up Sweet Pea Leah DiPascal & Lisa Aultman

Happy 2022, Sweet Peas! God declared in Isaiah 43:19, “Behold, I am doing a new thing.” This is a well-known and frequently quoted verse during this time of year, but that’s just part of the verse. While we’re busy making our New Year’s resolutions, cleaning, organizing, and filling in our brand-new calendars, we can often ignore a very important question. God ended this statement by asking His people, “…do you not perceive it?” In other words, God is doing anew thing, but we can miss it. YIKES! Join Leah & Lisa in this episode as we talk about the importance of constantly keeping our eyes on our Father God to perceive what new things He is up to, so we can obey and follow His lead. We don’t want to miss a thing!

Hey there, Sweet Pea! Did you know that God cares about every single aspect of our lives… our likes & dislikes; even in the “little things?!” He is our good & loving Abba Father that delights in showing us His favor! It’s just who He is! Do you have a favorite food? He designed your taste buds that way and He loves to bless you with it on occasion! How about a favorite pastime or hobby? He instilled that creativity & ability in you! You getting the idea?! As the traditional church Doxology proclaims, we are to “Praise God from whom all blessings flow!” so join Leah & Lisa in this episode as they chat (and sing & giggle!) about a few of their favorite things praising God in the process!

Can you believe Christmas is upon us, sweet peas?!? We know your time is extra busy right now, but we have a special treat for you with this new episode you won’t want to miss! We are chatting about several of the familiar characters of the Christmas story found in Matthew 2:1-11 and the extra special treat is that we were joined by our personal Bible teacher, Beverly Finnen. She is the Teaching Leader for the Bible Study Fellowship group that we attend & we are so happy we get to share her insight with our sweet peas! So whether you’re baking, wrapping, cleaning or maybe resting (Ha!Ha!), grab your earphones and tune in. You’ll be glad you did! 

Close your eyes, clear your mind and think about this for a second… What if God, the Creator of all things seen & unseen, did not design the human body to laugh?! Can you imagine what the world would be like without laughter?! What about your own life?! E-GADS!!! Now, reopen your eyes, look up and smile… aren’t you thankful for this precious gift from God? Join Leah & Lisa and special guest, comedian Michelle McNair, as they chat (and laugh!) about the dignity & the joy through laughter all believers have received from our Abba Father! (For more info. about Michelle be sure to check out her website www.thatfunnylady.com) 

Lisa & Leah are back for Part 2 of their conversation about the conversing with God, the Father. So far they’ve discussed the importance of having a simple, yet powerful prayer life by intentionally praising God & how our times of confession actually bring us refreshment! Now they are breaking down why expressing thanks is a game-changer, especially before bringing our requests to Him. Sometimes we just need to get back to the basics to strengthen & encourage our relationship with God. That’s our prayer for you, Sweet Peas!

Do you struggle with your prayer life? Is it something you wish came more natural to you, but you don’t even know where to begin? Or, if being completely honest, does the word “prayer” disinterest you?... bore you?... scare you?... or worse, does it guilt you? Join Leah & Lisa on today’s episode as they talk about the gift of prayer (aka: talking with God!). Grab a seat (or your headphones if you’re on the go!) and join in as they chat about what prayer is, what prayer isn’t and why it’s such an amazing gift from the Lord!
