    Leave the Weeds - A Different Way to Face What We Cannot Control | Navigating Cancer

    When life brings us face to face with what we cannot control, we can spend so much energy rehearsing worst case scenarios or trying to force every problem out of the garden. In this honest conversation, we share what has steadied us through Jason's stomach cancer diagnosis: the reminder that we have what we need when we need it, and the freedom to be present rather than live inside foreboding dread. We also sit with Jesus' parable of the wheat and tares. What if some weeds are not ours to uproot? We talk about partnering in the care and treatment that is ours to do, asking God what should be removed and what may need to remain for a purpose, and turning our attention toward the life that is still growing. If you are carrying a hard thing, we hope this gives you a picture of a faithful Lord of the harvest. Join us in the Settled Community for monthly live classes, replays, book clubs, and a growing library of resources for living from your settled self. Takeaways: - We do not need to live inside imagined worst case scenarios.- When difficulty arrives, we can meet it with the help available in that moment.- The parable of wheat and tares gives language for trusting God with what we cannot uproot ourselves.- We can participate in wise care and still relinquish the outcome to God.- There can be more life to notice and nurture, even in the presence of disease and loss.

    The Honda Civic - Why Your Role Is Not Your Identity | Marriage

    We can carry a surprising number of assumptions into marriage: who should work, who should clean, who should make the decisions, and what it means to be a husband or wife. But a role is not an identity. Roles are activities that can flex and change with the season, while our identity is something deeper that deserves clarity and care. We are talking about the family models we inherit, the expectations we can unknowingly put on each other, and why boundaries are not meant to restrict us. They help us recognize where we end and another person begins, so we can live from self-control rather than control of one another. We also explore headship as service, the freedom of unity with distinction, and what it looks like to let our children discover who they are rather than forcing them into a part.

The work each person does in a home can change without diminishing who they are.The assumptions we bring from our family of origin can quietly shape our marriage until we examine them together.Healthy boundaries clarify where one person ends and another begins, making room for self-control instead of control of someone else.Headship is best understood through Christ's example of serving, creating safety, and making space for others to flourish.Children benefit when we show them that a marriage can have unity with distinction instead of one rigid pattern they must repeat.

    I'm Gonna Turtle - Why We Hide When We Don't Feel Safe | Marriage

    We didn't grow up assuming our home would feel safe - and if that's true for you too, you're not alone. This week we're talking about what it actually takes to build a safe place, in a marriage and in a home, and why safety rarely happens by accident. We talk through the tension between order and creativity, a study on a fenced playground that changed how we think about boundaries, and the difference between what we truly need from each other and what we simply prefer. We get honest about a season where confession, not perfection, is what made our marriage feel safe again, because there's no separation from grace when we bring the real thing into the light.

    Stop Being Right - Choosing Relationship Over Rightness | Marriage

    Today, we're diving deep into the transformative idea of shifting our perspective in marriage from a right-and-wrong paradigm to one focused on relationship and union. This episode is all about how this change can lead to healthier, more fulfilling connections with our partners. We share personal stories and insights on how the constant battle of who's right can create distance and competition in a relationship, ultimately leading to feelings of isolation.

    Metabolizing Marriage - Forgiveness and Grief | Marriage

    Forgiveness and grief are essential components of a thriving marriage, and this episode dives into why they often go hand in hand. We unpack how both concepts serve as a process of metabolizing our pain, much like our bodies process food. Jason and I share our insights from 26 years of marriage, emphasizing that whether we grieve first or forgive first, the important thing is to recognize they are two sides of the same coin. We also explore the idea that emotional constipation can occur when we fail to process our feelings, leading to resentment and distance in our relationships. By understanding and practicing forgiveness and grief, we can clear the air, allowing our marriages to flourish and grow in healthy ways.
