Simply Living

Coty Terry

Can we live in peace? Can we live in surrender? What would that even look like? To Coty Terry, the answer is living how Jesus lived: simply. Not competing or pleasing or sabotaging or striving or obsessing or worrying. Just simply living. But how do we do that? In this podcast, Coty sits down with her husband Joshua Terry to talk about what "simply living" could mean, how to do it, and why it matters.

    Why Having Fun Is Actually Biblical

    Have you ever felt like life has become nothing but responsibilities, work, and checking off the next task?

We explore how joy, creativity, fellowship, rest, and enjoying God's gifts can help us remain faithful to the work He's called us to do.

In this episode we discuss: ✨ Why Christians need healthy fun ✨ Jesus' example of enjoying fellowship ✨ David's creativity through music and worship ✨ How joy helps prevent burnout ✨ Practical ways to build enjoyable rhythms into everyday life ✨ Creativity, rest, and purpose ✨ Proverbs 17:22—"A joyful heart is good medicine."

    Are You Worshipping These Modern-Day Idols Without Realizing It?

    In this episode of the Simply Living Podcast, we explore one of God's clearest commands: "You shall have no other gods before Me."Although we may not see people bowing down to physical idols in our culture today, modern idolatry is everywhere. We discuss three idols that often compete for our hearts and worship: money, the fear of man, and pride.We talk about how the love of money can quietly become worship and how gratitude and generosity help loosen its grip on our hearts. We explore how the fear of man is ultimately an identity issue, and why finding our identity in Christ frees us from living for the approval of others.We also discuss how pride can appear in obvious arrogance but also in subtle forms like false humility, and why healthy confidence in who God created us to be is not the same thing as pride.How do we recognize these idols in our lives? How do we keep them from taking God's place in our hearts? And what practical steps can we take to worship God alone?Join us as we discuss biblical wisdom for identifying modern idols, renewing our minds, and learning to live simply like Jesus by putting God first in every area of life.In this episode, we discuss:✨Modern-day idolatry✨Worshipping God alone✨Money and stewardship✨Gratitude and generosity✨Fear of man and identity in Christ✨Pride, false humility, and arrogance✨Confidence versus pride✨Living simply like Jesus✨Putting God firstWelcome to Season 3 Episode 7 of the Simply Living Podcast, a Christian podcast about learning how to live simply like Jesus did.If this conversation encouraged you, please like, subscribe, and share it with someone who may find it helpful.Also on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and anywhere podcasts are found: https://linktr.ee/thesimplylivingpodcastFor more content, check out my blog: https://www.cotyterry.com/blog//CONNECT WITH ME:Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/naturallycoty/ YouTube | www.youtube.com/@CotyTerryApple Music | https://music.apple.com/us/artist/coty/1566830190SoundCloud | https://soundcloud.com/cotymusic //CONTACT ME: For all those who want to contact me, please fill out the contact form on my website at https://www.cotyterry.com/

    Have you ever felt bored, stuck, uninspired, or unfulfilled? In this episode of the Simply Living Podcast, we explore why creativity matters more than many Christians realize and how simply living can actually help us live more creatively. As followers of Jesus, we're made in the image of God—the ultimate Creator. We believe that creativity isn't just for artists, musicians, or entrepreneurs.

In this episode, we discuss: ✨ Why boredom often comes from a lack of challenge and creativity ✨ How being made in God's image affects the way we live ✨ The dangers of comparison and fear ✨ How drifting from God can lead to feeling unfulfilled ✨ Why creativity is connected to purpose and calling If you've ever felt stuck, uninspired, creatively blocked, or uncertain about your purpose, we pray this conversation encourages you to reconnect with God and rediscover the creativity He placed within you.
