Continuing our practice of Surrender for this Easter season. Surrender applies to the major life events, but also (and quite likely more so) to the daily habits and practices of our lives. Join us as we delve into sleep deprivation, our relucta
In this episode we discuss observation of liturgical calendars, our need for seasons, and re-cap Kim’s Lenten lessons. So good to be back with a new, tiny guest in tow! Listen in.
What would you say if we told you that Christmas lasts much longer than one day? And, what might you say if your Christmas has been less than, well “Christmasy?” The good news for those of us who’ve had a hard season is that Christ came for jus
In this, the week before Christmas, we’re talking about the necessity of advent. Whether you’re working, a stay at home mom, or both, properly ordering our days for prayer is vital to Christian life. Listen in as we discuss the American mindset
How advent captures us beyond, “Jesus is the reason for the season.” Developing a heart posture of waiting for His kingdom, while simultaneously participating in Immanuel, “God with us” is a tension we don’t often acknowledge. How do we wait in
Have you ever felt like the things you’re teaching your children are falling on unappreciative ears? Kim and Em dive into the reality of sharing rich and beautiful academia and planting seeds as an arduous, trusting work. We don’t know what i
In her season, Emily feels responsible to do what she sees needs done. In her season, Kim is learning to let go of what she knows and sees, even when saying something might help. For both of us, we’re learning the opportunity in surrender throu
After discussing the “why” for our homeschooling we now dive into the “what and the how.” Tailor-made for each family, this portion of your homeschooling venture deals with the unique circumstances of your family. Finances, preferences, time, h
Today we’re talking about why our “Why” matters in homeschooling, and the possible fall out of going at this without one. Listen in. Teaching From Rest by, Sarah Mackenzie: Teaching from Re
This is a much-anticipated series. We love to talk about this subject, as we’re both homeschooling, one of us was a homeschooler, and both of us have seen incredible freedom in this form of education. While there’s no one right way to homeschoo
Parenthood is a calling. In this six-part series we’ve run the gamut of this rarely explored topic. Parenthood is messy, but there’s abundant grace that (quite frankly) we’re banking on. Honoring your parent is messy, but again grace plays a pi
Today we’re revisiting an older episode entitled, “Family Friendships.” This conversation fits snuggly with all our conversation over the last couple weeks about adult children and parents and how they relate. We hope this will encourage you, a
Something we don’t think about: The majority of our relationships with our children will be while they’re adults. How does that inform our parenting in the formative years? How does that change the adult child’s response to their parents? How c
True love is love that, when tested, keeps loving. This relationship certainly presents that opportunity. How can a parent love their adult child well? How can an adult child love their parents well? Listen in.
You’d still take a bullet for your child, but they’re an adult. How do you respect them as an individual, while also sharing the valuable instruction you’ve garnered over the years? What does prayer look like on both sides of the adult child/pa
We’re starting at the beginning. Humans, sin, and the institution of the family seemed appropriate for this first conversation about the delicate relationship between adult children and their parents. The Lord thought the family was worth savin
Today we’re answering two questions that came in: 1. First time mom tips 2. How to get through long, hard days with littles. Em can empathize, Kim can remember. Listen in.
Today we’re discussing a quote from St. Francis De Sales, the temptation to define our lives by circumstances, and fail-proof ways to discover abundance in our weakness. God is a Father and He truly delights to give us our best. Listen in.
Welcome to out first Q&A episode where we answer questions directly from you! This is so exciting, as hearing directly from you helps us understand our audience better, and also pursue conversation avenues we might not have otherwise thought of
As we enter part three of our marriage series, we’ve barely scratched the surface. We’re sharing some of the places that have recently challenged us in our own marriages. It’s going to be a hot one! Are we turning amoral issues moral? Maybe our
Are we doing the enemy’s work for him? In marriage we have a choice, always. Join us as we explore our agency, our ability for extreme action, and the places we get so easily confused in thinking we’re doing our spouse’s “best.” Marriage reveal
The first in our marriage series, Kim shares difficulties in marriage now as an almost empty nester, while Emily shares from her perspective with littles at home. Kim shares from 36 years experience, Em from 10, but most of the answers to the q
While it’s good in theory, “dependency” is a hard-won lesson. We are proud and prone to shame, but God offers a kind and gracious route to being conformed to His image. Emily shares a personal Lenten breakthrough and Kim warns against Christian
We give up all kinds of comforts to attain physical prowess. Whether it’s a sculpted body, strength for extreme physical feats, or simply to wake up in the morning with more energy, most of us have given up some small measure of comfort to atta
Could lent, like advent, be the thing that pulls us out of the inertia of our everyday lives? We are leaning into this liturgical season and asking God to show us what He has to offer. When our relationship with Christ suffers, do we point firs
