How Empty is Your Nest? (Part 1) - Mixed Feelings Stirred Up by the Empty Nest
My dear friend Susan Yates and I wrote a book in 2008 about the experience of your last child leaving the nest. This transition from living at home to living in the big world is usually exciting for 18-year-olds but not always for their moms. The empty nest experience is as old as the earth. In this podcast Susan and I talk about the commonalities of launching kids and moms being left behind wondering “now what do I do?” For any mom of a senior in high school this is must listening!

The Art of Being a Wife (Part 1)
One of the advantages of being married for over 40 years is learning the essence of what God designed in me as a woman who is also a wife. Being a married woman is not a science but an art. It’s always individualized. It’s always one of a kind. Give 100 people an 8x10 canvas, three tubes of oil paint, brushes and a palette knife and you will get 100 different results. Yet all marriages, all 100 of these painters, began with the same tools. In this series of podcasts I talk about the basic tools God gives every woman to create with in her marriage and how she can know the wonder of watching God work with her and her man.

He is the Stability of Our Times (Part 1) - Keeping Your Focus
Stability is always a need in our souls. It seems though at times of crisis in our lives and in our world to rise to the level of urgency. The psalmist wrote of feeling the earth shake beneath, of needing the Rock of Christ for security. In this series I talk about some of what God has taught me about trusting Him in especially challenging times.

Rebooting Christmas (Part 1) - A Christ-Focused Christmas
In this conversation I talk the dawning realization that the celebration of Christmas in the last few decades has become about everything other than Jesus. The majority of our decorating features snowmen, reindeer, stockings, toys and of course the ever present Santa, none of which have anything to do with the Incarnation. What if Christians made Jesus the central focus on this holiday? What would that look like? Listen to find out!

The Season of Gratitude (Part 1) - Forget Not His Benefits

Reclaiming Easter (Part 1) - The Miracle of Easter
In the whole of human experience Easter towers above all other feasts, celebrations, holidays because the cross alone offers forgiveness, restoration and resurrection to us individually and to all our broken struggling relationships. Yet we humans spend comparatively greater amounts of time, money and energy in celebrating Christmas rather than Easter. We can correct the imbalance and this 3 part series talks about ways to do just that.

Storms Of Life
One of the biggest surprises of my Christian life is the repeated storms that God has allowed to beat against us like the parable of the house built on the rock. Though I shouldn’t have been surprised, God has kindly taught me more about Himself in storms than in peace. This episode is about the season of storms.

Your Home is an Embassy (Part 1) - On Mission, Your Assignment as a Couple
One day I realized if I am an ambassador for Christ, and God’s word says I am in 2 Corinthians 5:20, then the place in which I live is His embassy. And that means my home is actually His home and He therefore has plans for this place I’ve called my home. Join us as we have a conversation about what this means for us and for you as His people in this foreign land of earth which is not our real home!
