    Ep. 27 | Holidays: Cultivating Contentment

    Welcome back to our holiday series! In today's episode we tackle the topic of contentment, why it's so hard in our culture, and share some practical ways we can be a people of joy this season. Things we talk about: Our unpopular holiday opinions Would you consider people content in our society today, especially during the holidays? How would you describe them? "A grateful man or woman will be a breath of fresh air in a world contaminated by bitterness and discontentment." How are the people of God described? How can we cultivate contentment in our lives and in our families? Questions to consider: Do I often complain about my circumstances, feeling like I deserve better? Would others describe me as a thankful person? Am I reserved or eager when it comes to expressing appreciation to others? Do others hear me voice more complaints and negative comments than words of gratitude about the typical events of daily life? Practical ideas shared on the show: Read through Exodus or Deuteronomy together as a family this holiday season Make a list for each of these headings: “Gifts from God” and “Gifts from Others.” Write down everything that comes to mind. Gratitude can (and should) lead us to intercession. A good prayer starter is to ask God to remind you of those who do suffer from some of the things He’s spared you from. Commit to praying for a few people who are suffering this holiday season.  GratiKube- family activity Noticing your necessary people- mailman, package delivery, coffee shop worker, child’s teacher or therapist.  Write out your personal testimony of how God saved you- what was your life like before he redeemed you? What has changed in your life since he delivered you? Ask guests coming to your parties to bring a canned item to donate to a local food pantry Put everyone’s name in a bowl and draw names. Say something you’re grateful for about that person Read a biography: The Hiding Place (gain some perspective) or God’s Smuggler Ask a friend to go through Choosing Gratitude by Nancy Leigh DeMoss (has a 30 day devotional)

    Ep. 26 | Holidays: An Opportunity for Rejoicing

    We live in a culture saturated with excess, exhaustion, and entitlement. And sadly, the way believers celebrate the holidays often fails to look any different from their unbelieving neighbors and friends. Why is this? What could it look like for Christians to approach the holidays with a fresh, gospel perspective?  We aren’t here to give you the perfect gift guide or decorations tips. You won’t find us telling you what kinds of traditions you should do as a family or how to simplify the holidays so you can experience less stress.  We hope we can offer you something far better! In this episode, Emily and Alyssa talk very practically about why God has given us the holidays as an opportunity for rejoicing. Things we talk about: Where do holidays come from? What is their intended purpose? How can we as Christians lead the charge in rejoicing, celebrating, and enjoying all God has given us? What are some practical ideas for celebrating and setting our hearts right? Memory Making Mom Faithful with Little on instagram

    Ep. 22 | DGRS: He Won't Give Me More Than I Can Handle?

    In Christian culture, we sometimes find ourselves using words or catch phrases that "sound spiritual" but are not necessarily biblical. Emily and Alyssa tackle some of these often misplaced phrases in this series titled, "Did God Really Say...?" In today's episode we tackle the phrase "Did God really say He won't give me more than I can handle?" Is the phrase "God won't give me more than I can handle" even found in scripture? What is the context? "No temptation [regardless of its source] has overtaken or enticed you that is not common to human experience [nor is any temptation unusual or beyond human resistance]; but God is faithful [to His word—He is compassionate and trustworthy], and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability [to resist], but along with the temptation He [has in the past and is now and] will [always] provide the way out as well, so that you will be able to endure it [without yielding, and will overcome temptation with joy]." 1 Corinthians 10:13 (Amplified Version) Do we see examples in Scripture of people who were given more than they could handle? “God will give you all the grace you need in every situation you face.” The importance of understanding your own strengths and weaknesses If Satan were to tempt you, how might he do it? What joy-stealing sins are you most prone to give in to? When are you most susceptible to temptation? How can you prepare for these times? How are you cultivating hope and delight in Jesus?
