#203 Everyday Joys & A Heart for Discipleship
Rambling Through Everyday Life Podcast
In this week's conversation, we’re talking about the simple joys of everyday life and the beauty of true discipleship. When someone comes to know the Lord, what happens next? Who is coming alongside them as they begin to grow? And are we growing in God’s Word so we can pour into the people around us? We also chat about accountability: what it is, what it isn’t, and why real accountability isn’t about policing behavior but holding someone’s heart with care and honesty. Plus, we share our November memory verse: Philippians 4:8. We’d love to hear your thoughts on discipleship,...

#201 Fall Rambling
Rambling Through Everyday Life Podcast
This week’s podcast might just be one of our favorites yet. We talked about cozy fall things like a cranberry orange simmer pot and deeper things, like our thoughts, our struggles, and the way God transforms us through them. Somewhere between laughter and reflection, we found ourselves saying, “We’ve lost our ability to consider other perspectives,” and it hit us hard. We also talked about how sin, as painful as it is, can be the very thing God uses to change us from the inside out. And then this question: “Are you thinking about what you’re thinking about?” Because we average...

#199 We Can Do Hard Things!
Rambling Through Everyday Life Podcast
This week’s episode is full of real life and real faith — from Wendy’s chili 🍲 and football chatter 🏈 to Fran’s NYC adventures 🗽 (hello, Oyster Bay!) and even a little zombie paintball 💥. But beyond the laughs and stories, we’re diving deep into what it means to do hard things — to step into new, uncomfortable, and stretching seasons — and how the Lord meets us right in the middle of it all. We are both learning that we’re not failing… it’s just new. We’re growing in dependence on the Lord, recognizing that self-sufficiency feels safe and...

#195 There is power in the name of Jesus
Rambling Through Everyday Life Podcast
Our hearts are so tender after the last two weeks and yours probably is, too.

Did you memorize Colossians with us in September? What is the Lord teaching you through these verses?
"For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father,who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light." Colossians 1:9-12
"It's time for us to be done with shallow, surface level faith. There is so much to learn, and the Lord wants to be engaged with us through his Word." Fran
We have a new scripture memory verse for October: "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but one of power, love, and sound judgment." 2 Timothy 1:7 CSB

John 17:11-19 "I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one. While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled. I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy within them. I have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world. My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified."
