    83. Ash Wednesday - Wednesday

    83. Ash WednesdayWednesday - February 18, 2026 We learn about the meaning and significance of Ash Wednesday. This important day begins the season of Lent, which prepares us to get the most out of the celebration of Easter. Discussion Question(s) • Is there something you might need to say sorry for - either to God or someone you know? Share if you’re comfortable, but it’s ok to just reflect. Prayer Dear God, we love you so much. But despite our love for you, we still make mistakes that can hurt our relationship with you. On this Ash Wednesday, we say we’re sorry, and we seek to better follow you. More than anything, thank you that you hear us and forgive us. Amen.

    80. You Are Loved - Friday

    80. You Are LovedFriday - February 13, 2026 Delivering the gift to Brie helped her see that she is loved for who she is and not just what she does. Practicing Sabbath teaches us that our work is important, but if God is the one inviting us to rest, the world will not fall apart when we take a break. Discussion Question(s) • Now that we’re at the end of the week, how are you feeling? • Was there anything you did this week that felt like it filled you back up? • Who is someone you know who is appreciated mostly for what they do? And how might you let them know that they’re also loved for who they are? Prayer Dear God, we thank you for this week and for all of your blessings. We thank you for all that we were able to do, but we also thank you that you love us regardless of our achievements. Help us to find moments to rest this weekend so we can head into next week ready to follow wherever you lead us. Amen. Episode Music: Plainfield by LNDÖ --- 📝 Send Us Your Stories!

    79. Making Time for Sabbath - Thursday

    79. Making Time for SabbathThursday - February 12, 2026 We talk about the challenge of setting aside time for Sabbath rest, and how we can discover and take advantage of smaller moments throughout our day. Dan also reveals the gift he’s prepared for Brie. Discussion Question(s) • Are there any moments when you could set aside time for God and enjoy some Sabbath rest today? Prayer Dear God, we thank you that you always want what’s best for us. And so, your invitation to rest is not an extra thing to add to our day or our week, but it’s a gift that helps us be who you made us to be. Help us to make space for Sabbath rest - whether it’s a full day or just a few minutes - because any time dedicated to you is worth it. Amen.

    78. Rest is a Gift - Wednesday

    78. Rest is a GiftWednesday - February 11, 2026 We learn that from the very beginning of the Bible, rest has aways been a gift from God. Dan wonders if there’s a way the town can give Brie the gift of rest as well. Discussion Question(s) • How would you feel if you opened a present from God that contained the best night’s sleep of your life or the most fun weekend ever? Prayer Dear God, how incredible is it that after you gave us the gift of life, you immediately gave us the gift of rest? Not because we needed it or because we earned it, but because you love us. Help us to recognize rest as a gift and receive it with joy. Amen. Episode Music: Thoughts Unfolding on a Guitar by Kurtis Parks --- 📝 Send Us Your Stories! We love featuring listener submissions!

    77. The Tired Baker - Tuesday

    77. The Tired BakerTuesday - February 10, 2026 When Dan swings by the Fruit of the Earth Bakery, he encounters a very tired baker. Though Mondays are slow at the bakery, and Brie could really use some time to rest, she feels a responsibility to be open in case anyone needs her. Discussion Question(s) • Can you think of a time when you did something because someone else wanted you to, and you didn’t want to let them down? Prayer Dear God, it’s a privilege to love and serve other people, and when we do that, it’s a way of loving and serving you too. But sometimes, we’re out of time or out of energy, and what we really need is rest. Help us learn to listen to your voice and our bodies, so we can make wise choices. Amen.

    76. Importance of RestMonday - February 9, 2026 After a lowkey weekend, Dan notices that his family is rested and in a better mood to start the week. We introduce the idea of Sabbath by reflecting on toy trains. Discussion Question(s) • What do lowkey days look like in your family, and what do you like to do to rest up? Prayer Dear God, we thank you for this brand new week. Some weeks, we feel rested and ready to go. Some weeks, feel normal. And some weeks, we feel like we need another weekend immediately. No matter how we feel now, give us what we need for today, and guide us into restful sleep this evening. Amen. Episode Music: Last Train To Elowen by Alsever Lake --- 📝 Send Us Your Stories!
