Rambling Through Everyday Life Podcast
Happy Easter Monday, friends! This episode is full of our favorite kind of conversation: real life, real faith, and a little bit of everything in between. We talk about our Easter traditions, what Holy Saturday teaches us about rest and waiting, and wrestle with a question that really matters: "what’s the big deal about Jesus?" We keep coming back to this: without the resurrection, there is no Christianity. It’s the reason for our hope and the foundation of everything we believe. You’ll also hear about Fran’s upcoming NYC ministry opportunity, our new memory verse (Jeremiah...

We share stories from recent adventures, including a trip to the Walmart Museum in Bentonville, a mission trip to Honduras (yes, there’s a cow involved), and a few memorable characters along the way including Abraham the goat. We also talk about some meaningful ways people in our community are serving others, from caregiver support groups to a creative “Egg My Yard” fundraiser that’s bringing neighbors together. But in the middle of all the stories, we land on a deeper question: What is...

Today we’re talking about estate planning, not from a place of fear but from a place of love and making things easier on our families one day. We discuss why planning ahead matters, how it reflects biblical stewardship, and the simple steps that bring clarity instead of confusion during life’s hardest moments. We answer lots of questions including: What documents do I need? What is a trust and how is that different from a will? What questions should I ask my aging parents? What does my adult child need and why? How do I get started? What is my next step towards estate...

This week on the podcast, we’re joined by our dear friend and bestselling author for a heartfelt conversation about everything under the southern sun. Susannah shares vulnerable and powerful truth about the “people test,” the danger of speaking curses over our own lives, and how God can use even our worst talk to accomplish His purposes. We unpack how Satan pulls us into doubt and self-reliance, why apart from Christ we can do nothing, and how getting ahead of God often leads to a harder fall later. We also discuss where Susannah finds inspiration for her fictional book characters...
