    284. Listening Well and Practicing Simple Hospitality

    This week, we did something rare – we sat down and actually watched a movie, Twisters! Our kids have been raving about it, and turns out, it wasn’t just because we’re from Kansas. It's a thrilling and clean movie, which is not always easy to find these days, so if you haven't seen it, I definitely recommend it! I also discuss my passion for politics. Believe it or not, I am something of a political junkie which might come as a surprise to those who know me as someone who generally does not engage in online debates. However, I do actually steer clear of heated discussions on the internet and instead focus on trying to truly understand both sides of the political spectrum. Jesse and I also touch on the recent election. We had an epic setup on election night, with multiple screens and streams, while chatting with our whole family. I even crafted my own Electoral College map by researching diverse perspectives, not just the mainstream media. It's all about getting to the heart of what people truly care about! We reflect on some important and humbling lessons learned recently from having hosted a few guests, an incredibly fun experience that reminded us that hospitality doesn’t need to be lavish. We also discuss a profound message from our recent church service. In these challenging times, it's essential to focus our eyes on the things that truly matter, so whether you're celebrating or feeling devastated post-election, remember, politicians aren’t our saviors. Let’s lean in, listen, and foster genuine conversations. In This Episode [0:35] - We recently sat down and watched a movie - Twisters - together. [2:16] - I am currently reading Word Before World by Gretchen Saffles. [3:06] - I discuss how I am a political junkie who shares my pro-life beliefs but avoids political debates online. [5:17] - I am very passionate about following elections, creating Electoral College maps, and researching diverse political perspectives. [8:04] - Jesse discusses how Tim Russert closely analyzed polling data, scrutinizing its accuracy, methodology, and sample sizes. [9:27] - I deeply analyzed election data this year while creating and refining Electoral College maps. [13:54] - Hear why I tend to steer clear of political debates online. [14:33] - Jesse argues that successful candidates prioritized conversations over soundbites, highlighting the importance of having detailed stances on key issues. [15:11] - I value curious, empathetic conversations to understand diverse perspectives without debating or rebutting. [17:09] - Listening can help lead to compassion, revealing shared passion and care despite differing opinions. [19:29] - I emphasize placing hope in Jesus, not politicians, as true change comes from faith. [21:28] - We hosted overnight guests recently, reminding me that simple hospitality is meaningful and sufficient. [24:17] - I advocate for offering specific help to foster families instead of vague offers of support. [27:24] - I suggest offering several specific options when offering help for grieving individuals to ease their burden and stress.

    283. Building a Deeper Connection to God (with Jeannie Cunnion)

    Today's guest is actually a threepeat guest, Jeannie Cunnion! And today we get to have a conversation about building a deeper relationship with God, inspired by her new devotional, Closer to God: A 40-day Pursuit of God's Personal Presence. Jeannie has the remarkable ability to push us deeper in our walk with Jesus and her new devotional is full of profound questions and encouragement to challenge and inspire us to grow closer to God. In this episode, Jeannie shares her journey, drawing from her previous book Don't Miss Out, which explores the vital role of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Her new devotional continues this exploration with questions like "Who is the Holy Spirit?" and "What does true intimacy with God look like?" These are just a few of the 40 questions which she discusses, ultimately designed to stir our spirits and deepen our hunger for a more vibrant life with God. Jeannie also opens up about overcoming barriers to intimacy with God such as resisting the Holy Spirit or being caught in a performance mindset with God. She emphasizes the freedom and refreshment found in daily repentance and how it cultivates intimacy with God. In this episode, we dive into these subjects and also discuss practical ways to experience God's presence in our every day lives -- from washing dishes to carpooling, recognizing that God's presence isn't limited to just extraordinary moments. Whether you're new to Christianity or a long-time believer looking to deepen your relationship with God, I think you will be so blessed and challenged by what Jeannie shares in this episode on how to deepen your relationship with God -- in the midst of real life! In This Episode [0:33] - Jeannie's new devotional book Closer to God challenges readers with deep, reflective questions and inspiration. [2:48] - The Holy Spirit stirs a deeper hunger for God within us, Jeannie explains. [4:15] - God's presence is for everyday moments, not just mountaintop or valley experiences. [6:47] - Understanding the Holy Spirit's role removes barriers to intimacy with God. [10:22] - Embracing repentance, rather than performance, helps cultivate closeness with God. [11:24] - Repentance is refreshing and transformative and is not meant for reprimand. [14:15] - Jeannie states that practicing God's presence involves daily conversation and reading His Word. [17:45] - Pursuing holiness by following Jesus invites abundant life and peace. [21:10] - Worship and community can help us remember God's faithfulness in difficult times. [24:09] - Choosing God in daily moments leads to strength and hope. [27:50] - I observe how faith grows through cultivating intimacy, repentance, and obedience.

    282. Something I just learned about Jesse, cows, disappointment, and voting

    After knowing Jesse since I was 9 years old (I'm 43 now!), I just found out something I had no idea about him. We share the funny story on the podcast. I'm honestly still so shocked that I just discovered this!! We also dive into some really fun listener feedback, with one of you pointing out how I had incorrectly called beef you buy for the freezer cow and that turned into a fun discussion on things beef and cattle-related! Our family plans also took an unexpected turn recently when a storm rescheduled Silas’s baseball tournament, clashing with our trip to Silver Dollar City. We came up with plan B which split up the family, but despite the big changes of plans and what I had hoped for and envisioned, both groups had fantastic experiences. Jesse and the boys had a memorable baseball weekend, and I got some special time with the girls and their boyfriends. It was a great reminder that even if you have a completely different experience than you had expected and planned for, you can lead to beautiful memories! We also touch on early voting and how we try to include our kids in these civic duties is so important. It's been so heartwarming to see how invested Kathrynne has become in politics -- and how she's gotten many opportunities we would have loved at her age, that she never sought out but have been so good and exciting! In This Episode [0:35] - My recent discovery about Jesse that surprised me so much! [6:11] - Astigmatism and how struggling to remember right and left causes uncomfortable eye doctor visits. [7:30] - We share some listener feedback on cows vs. beef. [10:23] - Does the age of cows affect meat quality?  [11:06] - A listener suggests roasting beets, and I recount a fire alarm causing the arrival of a fire truck. [13:46] - Hear a story from a listener about a fireproof deep freeze keeping rotten meat safe after a wildfire. [15:33] - I talk about a Silver Dollar City family trip with the older girls and their boyfriends, which proved wonderful. [16:54] - Storms rescheduled a baseball tournament, leading to special family weekends and a successful trip! [19:08] - I enjoyed creating special memories with Kierstyn. [21:05] - We voted early recently due to potential long lines on voting day. [23:19] - Even though I enjoy politics, I have avoided running for office due to past stressful experiences. [26:04] - Kathrynne is politically active and has received many unexpected opportunities. [27:36] - Jesse discusses how Kathrynne took anxiety-filled steps into political involvement, which led to personal growth. [28:18] - I recount how Kathrynne gained confidence from a challenging training experience, opening new opportunities. [31:04] - Jesse explains that we encourage our kids to step out of their comfort zones and know their values. [31:28] - I am very supportive of Kathrynne's small steps as character-building for future opportunities!

    Join us this week as I discuss my recent 43rd birthday! In this week’s episode, I’m diving into my recent birthday reflections, the wisdom I've gained from embracing my wrinkles, and the unexpected lessons from our recent freezer incident. After celebrating turning 43, I've been contemplating the importance of aging and how every wrinkle tells a unique story about my journey, family, and faith.

It highlighted the importance of emergency preparedness and community support in times of crisis, prompting me to rethink what it truly means to be prepared for unexpected events. We also discuss the value of having emergency supplies, such as non-perishable food, water, and cash on hand. These practical tips are vital, especially when local services are disrupted. Amidst this serious conversation, I share some lighter moments, including a humorous driving mishap that served as a reminder of my tendency to handle challenges alone.  Tune in as we navigate through both the significant and the trivial, weaving in heartfelt stories and valuable lessons that encourage us to embrace life’s uncertainties with grace and preparedness. Join me on this journey of self-reflection and community resilience! In This Episode [0:54] - Reflecting on birthday goals, I compare personal challenges with greater ones like Hurricane Helene.

    278. When You Feel Like You're the Only One Who's Behind (with Meghan Ryan Asbury)

    Meghan Ryan Asbury was in studio last week to record this week's episode all about the topic of her new book: You Are Not Behind: Building a Life You Love Without Having Everything You Want! We all encounter this feeling at some point in our live: the sense of inadequacy that can stem from our lives not aligning with expectations we had for where we'd be, expectations we feel like we're not living up to from others, or just the general sense that everyone else has it more together or their lives are moving along at a stronger/faster/better pace than ours. Meghan shares her journey of writing this book during a pivotal time when her own life felt anything but perfect and where so many dreams and hopes she'd had for the future were not coming to fruition. In this conversation, we discuss the detrimental impact of comparison and how it permeates our thoughts and influences our sense of contentment. Her insights resonate deeply, especially when she reminds us that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. We explore the importance of recognizing our unique journeys and the necessity of grieving lost hopes, which can ultimately lead us to greater healing. Whether you’re in your twenties, thirties, forties, or beyond, this episode offers wisdom for anyone feeling behind in life. Meghan encourages us to embrace our current season, invest in community, and cultivate gratitude amidst the unknowns of the future. In This Episode [0:35] - I am talking today with Meghan Ryan Asbury, author of the book You Are Not Behind. ​​[1:51] - Meghan's book journey began by questioning why people feel behind. [4:28] - I share how this book is relevant for all ages. [6:42] - Comparison is often a root cause of feeling behind. [9:46] - Hear how Meghan confronted her belief that obedience guarantees happiness. [11:50] - Meghan accepts that the Bible defines good as singleness, suffering, and poverty, not the American Dream. [13:16] - Coping mechanisms for happiness only work temporarily. [16:41] - It's so important to allow yourself to grieve so that you can heal. [19:37] - Meghan holds both pain and hope together, trusting God's promises despite feeling disappointed. [22:28] - Find hope in God's promise to make all things new and comfort her pain. [25:31] - Community, argues Meghan, helps combat feelings of being behind by fostering connection and healing. [27:21] - Vulnerability and effort lead to meaningful connections, even in different life seasons. [29:37] - Meghan trusts that God will provide and rejects a scarcity mindset when comparing to others. [32:42] - Meghan reflects on past choices, trusting God's faithfulness while living fully and hoping for the future.
