I think it's time to renew our minds and reclaim 2020 for the Lord.  This year so far has been a doozy.  But it's time for us to live by faith and not be consumed by the things of this world. In the past when I thought of "the things of the world", I thought of things like my goals, my ambition....not they are bad but it is easy to be consumed by them.  But right now it's things like the upcoming election, Covid-19, the kid's school situation, civil unrest.... These things are consuming but I am reminded that while these are big things that can have an impact on our lives, they don't change Jesus.  They don't change the power of the Spirit.  They don't change our salvation or the call on my life or yours according to the will of God. So, to be renewed, we need to focus on the things that are eternal.  Let's reclaim this year.  Let's shift our focus and be the light for others.

Today we are joined by the Authors of Honest Answers: Exploring God Questions with Your Tween, Janelle Alberts, and Ingrid Faro.  Even if you are not the moms of tweens, the knowledge shared about presenting the Gospel to our kiddos is priceless.  Although we raise our kids in the church, they will go through their own journey to come and find the Lord.  Listen in to this conversation to learn how to apply grace, plant seeds of hope, and be there for your kids without being their savior (this was a big take away for me!)   Grab the free Your Life Rocks App: Apple users: https://yourliferocks.com/apple Google Users: https://yourliferocks.com/Google   COME SAY HI!

When we talk about balance, regardless of how you define it, you need to have three things.   1. God first in your life  2. Community and  3. Systems that help you live in a balanced way.   This week we are focusing on number two, community.  There are many components to building community, but what we are focusing on this week is all about bringing in more joy to your life (because that is what this whole 7 week series is all about) by loving on others.   When we focus on others and love on them, it's easy to forget about the little things that are weighing us down.  Plus, as you live in your purpose of building up others and loving on them, you are becoming more like Christ and that kind of alignment with the Spirit naturally produces more joy.  Trust me.  Give it a try and get ready to see some serious shifts in your life.   Grab the free Your Life Rocks App: Apple users: https://yourliferocks.com/apple Google Users: https://yourliferocks.com/Google   COME SAY HI!

Summer refresh week five is here!  This week we are getting super tactical and practical.  This whole 7-week series is all about bringing more joy into your life. But here is the thing, it's hard to feel joy when we are distracted by the things undone around us.  Whether we think about it or not, when our environment is not in order, it can cause stress, distraction and remind us of the things that need to be done and it can silently kill your joy.  We are not talking about completely cleaning the house, in this episode, we are breaking it down and making it easy...promise.    Grab the free Your Life Rocks App: Apple users: https://yourliferocks.com/apple Google Users: https://yourliferocks.com/Google   COME SAY HI!

Watch your kids and think about how they are just fully living life.  They don’t care if they have gunk on their faces or if the house isn’t perfect, they just find joy.  They dance like no one is watching, and sometimes dress that way too.  If the clothes feel good, they want to wear them.  Or if it’s what they like.   Do you remember doing the same thing when you were little?  What things did you do that brought you joy?  Today, we are revisiting those childhood joys and giving ourselves permission to reconnect with it.  Now, you might not walk around with a milk mustache and your lunch all over your face without a care in the world, but hopefully, you will find even just one thing to reintroduce to your life to spark Joy.

When you hear “let it go” I am sure that it brings up ideas, thoughts, and beliefs that you already have set for yourself about letting stuff go.  Why?  Because we are always told to just let it go!  Stress, grudges, worry….all of it.  But it’s easier said than done. Now, this summer series is all about bringing more Joy in your life and we can’t really get Joy if we are holding onto things that distract us from the joy God has for us in this life.  So today we are going to talk a little about why it’s important to let it go, but more importantly, three steps to actually let it go.   Grab the free Your Life Rocks App: Apple users: https://yourliferocks.com/apple Google Users: https://yourliferocks.com/Google   COME SAY HI!
