Prayer Dear God, we thank you that you have highlighted for us what is most important: loving you, loving others, and loving ourselves.

    162. Passing on Kind Words - Tuesday

    162. Passing on Kind WordsTuesday - October 6, 2026 During Luke’s check up at the vet, Dr. Lee shares with Dan how meaningful the blessing of the animals event is for the pet owners in Grace Harbor. We learn the power of sharing kind words rather than keeping them to ourselves. Discussion Question(s) • Are there any kind words or thank you’s that you have for someone else that you could share? Prayer Dear God, there are so many things we could say thank you for. Sometimes we remember to do it, but sometimes we get busy or we forget, and those kind words remain unspoken. So, in this moment, we say thank you - to you and for all the people in our lives who have blessed us. Help us keep our eyes and hearts open for moments to pass on kind and encouraging words whenever we can. Amen. Episode Music: Rhinestone by PALA --- 📝 Send Us Your Stories!

    161. Blessing of the Animals - Monday

    161. Blessing of the AnimalsMonday - October 5, 2026 Dan tells us all about the annual Blessing of the Animals, which included pets, our favorite ducks, and even a pet rock! But the day ended on a sour note for Dan’s daughter when she overheard some kids making fun of the boy with the rock. Discussion Question(s) • Is there anything that is special to you that might not seem like a big deal to anyone else? Prayer Dear God, we thank you for all of your blessings, whether they’re things that are easy to love - like adorable animals - or they’re things that may only be special to us. When we see things we don’t understand, help us remember to respond the way we would want others to act toward us - with questions instead of laughter. Amen.

    160. What True Strength Looks Like - Friday

    160. What True Strength Looks LikeFriday - October 2, 2026 As Dan reflects on the week helping out with the squash harvest, he sees the different strengths people gave out of love. We reflect on the unique strengths we have to give. Discussion Question(s) • Was there a time this week when you saw someone sharing one of their strengths or passions? • Did you notice when someone was giving all they had - maybe in a way that surprised you? Prayer Dear God, we thank you that strength comes in many forms. The kingdom of God needs people who can lift heavy things, but it also needs people who can lift the spirits of their neighbor. Show us where our strengths lie, and may we have the courage to love you with everything we have to give. Amen. Episode Music: Golden Age by Emorie --- 📝 Send Us Your Stories!

    159. All You Have to GiveThursday - October 1, 2026 The return of the rain gives Dan space to reflect on the week and what it means to love God with all our strength. We learn that strength isn’t found solely in muscles but it encompasses all we have to give. Discussion Question(s) • What is an action you do during your day that you could add a prayer to? Prayer Dear God, everything we have was first a gift from you. And so, loving you doesn’t require any more than that. Help us to recognize when we can turn ordinary moments into opportunities to connect with you. Amen. Episode Music: More Than One Way To Go Home by Amherst --- 📝 Send Us Your Stories!
