3: Character Development with Lynley Mandrell
Summary: Welcome back to another episode of Let It Shine where we unpack how we continue to pursue growth in mind, body, and spirit. On today’s episode Illuminator Lynley Mandrell and I share various challenges we have faced over the years personally, in marriage, and parenthood. Our experiences include not getting our way, being misunderstood, showing respect to those we feel are undeserving, and not following our feelings! Read that again, NOT following our feelings! If you’re new here, Lynley is an Illuminator for Let it Shine and you’ll be hearing more from her over the next several weeks. She is a wife, mom of 4, co-host to The Glass House podcast with her husband Ben, and a dear friend of mine! We love sitting together talking about how we can grow in Christ and be sanctified in him! This episode tackles hard work, perseverance, trials, honesty, and forgiveness. Character development usually comes from places of pain, but we want to encourage you to continue the journey with faith, perseverance, and integrity. Thank you so much for listening today.

2: Winging It vs. Working For It with Lisa Whittle

2: Winging It vs. Working For It with Lisa Whittle
Summary: Winging it is the art of doing something with little to no practice or preparation. While winging it can seem fun, spontaneous, and may even make you feel good about yourself in the moment, it inevitably leads to stress, chaos, and pride around what YOU can do and not what the Holy Spirit is doing. On today’s show, I sat down with Lisa Whittle and we talked about winging it versus working for it. Lisa and I dive into the sanctification and growth of trusting a process and doing due diligence in preparing for whatever God has called you to. Lisa is the best-selling author of 9 books and several Bible studies, including Jesus Over Everything and The Hard Good. She is a sought-after Bible teacher for her wit and bold, bottom-line approach. She is the founder of online communities Ministry Strong for ministry leaders and Called Creatives for writers and speakers, and host of the popular Jesus Over Everything podcast. She’s a wife, mom, lover of laughter, good food, and The Bible, and a self-professed feisty work in progress. When we look at scripture we see the carefully thought-out plans and purposes of God all throughout creation. Through the way He asked Noah to build the ark, Abraham to trust his promise, and David to trust his calling, God shows us that to look more like him is to trust his process and complete the work that is necessary.

1: Sanctification Over Self-Help with Whitney Capps
Summary: If you’re a woman scrolling through instagram, I’m sure you’ve seen it: Self-help quotes, tips, and trips are everywhere! “You’re worth it.” “You deserve it.” “You got this.” It may sound good initially, but is this aligned with living a life following Jesus? On today’s episode we tackle sanctification vs. self-help! Our Season 1 Illuminator, Whitney Capps, joins us in this conversation and get ready, because she is ready to call - us - out! Whitney Capps is an author, speaker, and a dear friend of mine! She is married to her husband and together they have four sons and live in the Atlanta area. We hope this conversation will challenge you in your process of sanctification. Our prayer is that you lean into Jesus and surrender everything, and we mean EVERYTHING, to him! Links:

Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints…

Today’s reading is Deuteronomy 4:20-31 - But the Lord has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be a people of his own inheritance, as you are this day. Furthermore, the Lord was angry with me because of you, and he swore that I should not cross the Jordan, and that I should not enter the good Land that the Lord your God is giving you for an inheritance. For I must die in this land; I must not go over the Jordan. But you shall go over and take possession of that good land. Take care, lest you forget the covenant of the Lord your God, which he made with you, and make a carved image, the form of anything that the Lord your God has forbidden you. For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. When you father children and children’s children, and have grown old in the land, if you act corruptly by making a carved image in the form of anything, and by doing what is evil in the sight of the Lord your God, so as to provoke him to anger, I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that you will soon utterly perish from the land that you are over the Jordan to possess. You will not live long in it, but will be left few in number among the nations where the Lord will drive you. And there you will serve gods of wood and stone, the work of human hands, that neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find him, if you search after him with your whole heart and with all your soul. When you are in tribulation, and all these things come upon you in the latter days, you will return to the Lord your God and obey his voice. For the Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you or destroy you or forget the covenant with your fathers that he swore to them.

Episode 230: Our Relationship with Dreams and Goals with Jamie Ivey
Welcome back to revisiting some of our favorite episodes from the past seasons of Chatologie. I remember this episode like it was yesterday! Having this guest of the show was a dream come true.

Little did I know that not only would I one day have her on my own show, but also that she would become a friend in real life! In this episode we talked about dreams, our relationship with dreams and goal setting. If you are like Jamie and I, you’ve got a love/hate relationship with goal setting. Listen in today as we share about how we feel about dreaming, goal setting, and ways you can find encouragement to dream bigger for yourself.
