We are continuing to look at how the woman described in Proverbs 31 can be used as an example for our own lives in the 21st century. Firstly, let’s review what we learned in part five, when we looked at verse 19.  A Proverbs 31 woman exhibits excellence in all she does.  She doesn’t let distractions keep her from completing her tasks.  She is dedicated and focused in order to complete her tasks with excellence. Today we will look at Proverbs 31:20.  Do... Read more

Ephesians 6:12 says – 2 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. What this means is that our existence here on the planet earth is a warfare.  Satan is our enemy.  He is against us. And he wants to kill, steal and destroy the life that God came to give us through creating us... Read more

Suzanne Lederer leads us in connecting with God through Lectio Divina, or “Sacred Reading”. Luke 10:30-37 (NLT) 30 Jesus replied with a story: “A Jewish man was traveling from Jerusalem down to Jericho, and he was attacked by bandits. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him up, and left him half dead beside the road. 31 “By chance a priest came along. But when he saw the man lying there, he crossed to the other side of the... Read more

Welcome to Parent Like You Mean It – I’m Jefferson Drexler and this is the podcast where we talk about what it means to parent intentionally, instead of just letting life happen to you and your kids.  Too often, we get bogged down by life’s circumstances: work, school, meetings, little league games, dance recitals, picking up the house, folding the laundry, re-folding the laundry, feeding the dog… there is perpetually 25 hours worth of things to take care of each and every... Read more

From Dewey Bertolini, Pastor of The Safe Haven in McMinnville, OR: Oh, my friends. You are about to be amazed… In this PODCAST, you will be amazed that in such a few words, Jesus taught such a tremendously timely and thought-provoking parable. Exactly WHAT the disciples (and US!) needed to hear; exactly WHEN they (and WE!) needed to hear it. If the world seems to be spinning out of control… If it seems that we are losing… If life becomes for you at times overwhelming…... Read more

From Carey Green, author, blogger, speaker, coach and pastor: God seems to love illustrations and symbols. The scriptures are full of them: sheep, goats, seeds, plants, vines, brides and bridegrooms, light, darkness – you get the idea. This episode uses the biblical illustration of light to show you a fun and effective way that you can use light to teach your family that God is light, and what that means for their lives. Let’s start by looking at 1 John 1:5-7... Read more

From Certified Life Coach Dixie Diamanti, Author of Climbing Out of the Box and Fifty Ways to Meet Your Lover: She came with a hoodie covering her bowed head that day. She was very petite in stature and seemed to draw her own countenance within herself as she sat downcast in my office with tears streaming. She had been beaten down emotionally by an abusive and demeaning husband who had a girlfriend and told her she had to live with it. I was... Read more

Recovered from his recent back surgery, my dad is back in action in this week’s episode, and while he still can’t bend or twist, we discuss international flooring. Dad often talks about how important it is to look at life from a different perspective than what you naturally do in order to understand the people around us. If we perpetually view life through our own small lens, we will be constantly frustrated and frustrating to others. Now, when we were younger,... Read more

Every week, we share stories about the amazing ways God is at work around the world.

This week, we start with Carl Crawford who took a team to Cuba: Probably the most significant experience was when we learned from a local... Read more

From Pam Rohr, author of Blended but not Broken – Hope and Encouragement for Blended Families: What should you do when you and your spouse have different parenting styles, resulting in different rules and unfair treatment of your children?  What happens when your spouse has an abundance of patience and tolerance for their kids, but has zero tolerance for your child? Your child sees the blatant discrimination, and it causes their feelings to be hurt. They feel unloved and unjustly... Read more
