4178 Laboring For What Lasts show art 4178 Laboring For What Lasts

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

There's something beautifully ironic about Labor Day. It's the one day of the year when we're told to stop laboring — to set down the to-do list, fire up the grill, and just breathe. But as the burgers sizzle and the kids splash in the last pool days of summer, a quiet question has a way of surfacing: What am I really working for? Today, as we celebrate the gift of rest, let's talk about Laboring for What Lasts — and why the answer to that question shapes everything. Jesus said it plainly in Matthew 6:21 (NIV): "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." Desire to be...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

There is a rhythm to our days that we rarely stop long enough to notice. We wake, we push, we strive, and we do it all over again. We wrap ourselves around careers, achievements, milestones, and ambitions so tightly that we forget whose we are and who we belong to. But what if this weekend, during this beautiful pause, it became the moment you chose to notice God's goodness? God did not create us to chase all the earthly things. He did not breathe life into us so we could spend every waking moment climbing ladders and collecting accolades. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other...

4176 When Holding It All Together show art 4176 When Holding It All Together

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

There is a quiet kind of tired that has nothing to do with sleep. It's the exhaustion that settles into your bones when you've poured out every ounce of who you are for the people you love and you look around and wonder, "Who's pouring into me?" If you've ever felt that heaviness, if you've ever smiled through the day while silently breaking underneath, then you already understand what it means when holding it all together is pulling you apart. You are not alone in this. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow...

4175 Nerves Mean You Care show art 4175 Nerves Mean You Care

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Have you ever laid awake at night replaying a moment from your day — a sharp word, a missed cue, a decision you second-guessed the moment it left your mouth? If that knot in your stomach feels all too familiar, then you need to know that those nerves mean you care. And caring is not a weakness. It's the heartbeat of a mother who loves deeply and wants to show up well for her family. We live in a world that hands us an impossible checklist. The parenting books say one thing. The experts say another. Your family and in-laws have their opinions, your best friend has hers, the school sends home...

4174 Break Back show art 4174 Break Back

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Have you ever felt like life just keeps piling on? One thing after another, weight upon weight, until you're not sure how much more you can carry. Maybe it's a season at work that won't let up, a relationship that drains more than it gives, or a quiet accumulation of worries that nobody else can see. You bend. You bow. You accommodate. And somewhere in the middle of all that bending, you start to wonder if you'll ever stand tall again. It's not time to break down or break apart, but to break back into the wholeness God designed for you. There's a difference between being flexible and being...

4173 What's Holding You in Place? show art 4173 What's Holding You in Place?

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Nobody photographs the underground. We frame the flowers. We celebrate the blossoms. We hold our phones up to the blooming tree and post it for the world to see. But the roots? The tangled, soil-dark, unglamorous system beneath it all? No one even thinks to look down. And yet when the wind comes, when the ground shakes, when life throws something at you that you didn't see coming — it's worth asking one honest question: What's Holding You in Place? Every woman who has ever weathered a storm and stayed standing knows this truth deep in her bones: it wasn't the bloom that held her. It wasn't...

4172 Breathe Again show art 4172 Breathe Again

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

There comes a moment when you realize you've been holding your breath — not literally, maybe, but somewhere deep inside, you've been clenching. Holding it all together so tightly that you forgot what it felt like to simply exhale. If that's where you are today, I want you to hear two words that might change everything: Breathe Again. Not tomorrow. Not when the to-do list is done. Right now. Because you were never meant to run on empty and call it faithfulness. We get tangled up in what doesn't work. We keep pulling at the same stubborn knots — the relationships that drain us, the routines...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Have you ever found yourself standing in a season where everything feels paused, and no matter how hard you try to push forward, the next step just isn't clear? If you've been asking yourself, "Does the wait feel long and hard?" —  you are not alone. We are all waiting for something. Whether it's direction for your next steps, something to shift in your marriage, your health to get well, or your heart to finally heal, you will find yourself wondering just how much longer this stretch is going to last. And in the middle of it, the silence can feel deafening. Waiting is one of those...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Let's be real for a second. When was the last time you prayed and it wasn't because something was falling apart? Most of us have that 911 prayer life down to an art. The doctor calls with unexpected results — we pray. The marriage hits a rough patch — we pray. A child makes a choice that sends our stomach to the floor — oh, we pray then. But what about Tuesday afternoon when the laundry is folded, dinner is in the oven, and life is just… fine? What about the season when nothing is broken, and nothing is burning? If we're honest, those are the moments when our prayer life quietly fades...

4169 Love Doesn't Clock Out show art 4169 Love Doesn't Clock Out

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Have you ever had one of those days where you've given everything you have — to your job, to the kids, to the house, to the never-ending list — and by the time you finally sit down next to your spouse, you've got nothing left? Maybe not even words. Just a sigh and a sinking into the couch cushion. In those moments, it can feel like love is something you just don't have the energy for. But here's what you must know: love doesn't clock out. It doesn't punch a time card and call it a day just because you're running on fumes. Love stays. Love chooses. And love finds a way, even when you're not...
