We are all looking for success. The question is: how do you define success? As believers, we can shy away from this topic because we only consider the world’s perception of success being all about power. But the truth is, success is about fulfilling your purpose. As believers, we were created with purpose, so we should strive to be successful! But we want to be careful with how we define and pursue success. How we view success has major implications for our everyday lives so we don’t want to get it wrong!   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Physical beauty is something that we think about. For some of us, it takes up more mental real estate than we’d like to admit. In fact, it’s a point of insecurity for us. We’re bombarded with different definitions of beauty; so much so that it can be exhausting! What is truly beautiful? Can the Bible actually help us have a healthy outlook on physical beauty? Can this not be a point of insecurity for us as Chrisitan women? Bethany Beal from Girl Defined Ministries helps us work through this.   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Depression is complex, and Christians aren’t exempt from battling depression! Throughout Scripture, we see many saints who manifested symptoms of depression, and we see that God worked in and through them for His glory. They were never alone, and neither are we! But this can be a hard thing to understand. In this episode, we talk about 5 things every Christian should know about depression. This will help us walk through depression or help us better come alongside those who are battling depression.    Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Codependency. Toxic relationships. Blurred boundaries. We all know that sin can impact our relationships. It can get tricky. We understand that God created us to depend on Him and each other. After all, we are the body of Christ! But how can we ensure relational health are pursued and maintained as He intended? What do we do if we find ourselves in unhealthy, sinful, or harmful relationships? Today, Ellen Dykas helps us navigate toxic relationships by looking to principles found in Scripture.   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Stress. We all experience it because our world is full of stressors. Even though God has designed our bodies to respond to stressors in a way that keeps us safe, we don’t always handle stress in a way that is healthy. Is there a way for believers to manage stress in a God-honoring, gospel-magnifying way? What are some practical things we can do to handle stress peacefully? The Bible offers us principles for dealing with stress. We can have peace in the midst of the pressures of this world!   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

“Do not bear false witness against your neighbor” (9th commandment). What does that even mean? Are we good if we just don’t spread lies about our neighbors? Are the 10 commandments something we even need to pay attention to on this side of the cross? Jen Wilkin helps us understand the purpose behind the law, and how we should view it today. She expounds on the 9th commandment, and we may be surprised at what all it entails. In fact, we may be shocked to realize it’s a besetting sin in our lives!   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Heartbreak, deep pain, suffering. We’ve all grieved the brokenness of this world. Yet, some of us wish we knew how to grieve effectively and with hope. As believers, we know we are not exempt from suffering and grief, but if we’re honest, sometimes we have a hard time reconciling our pain and the goodness and sovereignty of God. Can we grieve and trust God? Can we struggle and believe? Can we mourn and rejoice? Yes, we can, and it’s through the practice of lament!   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Change is inevitable. It takes on many forms, and responses to change can vary from person to person and situation to situation. Our world says to be adaptable, have the right perspective, and be positive in light of change. While these are constructive character traits to have, we believe that there’s more to it. In our ever changing world, we can find true rest and comfort in who God is. The truth that He is unchanging enables us to rightly handle whatever changes we may face!   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Life can feel out of control sometimes, and in response, we can find ourselves trying to control whatever we can. We feel a need to be in control! But is that even possible? We can plan out our days down to the hour, but there are a million things that can happen to completely uproot us. In essence, the world is out of our control! But one thing is sure: it is not out of God’s control. He is sovereign, and resting in this attribute of God frees us from our search for control.   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Can God restore a marriage after multiple affairs? Can He actually lead two broken people to forgiveness and healing? Mark and Jami Nato share their story of infidelity and deep suffering. Looking at them now with multiple flourishing businesses, four children, and a marriage filled with laughter, you may think it’s always been easy. They share their story to give God glory.

You know the desires of your heart. We all have desires! We are, by God’s design, longing creatures. But we also know that our desires are often distorted and self-centered. We desire the wrong things or we elevate good things to become ultimate things. We find that our desires become idols! So how do we go about this? How do we desire as God intended for us to desire? How do we win in this constant battle of our affections?   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

“Choose holiness, not happiness.” Are these two things mutually exclusive? Does our personal pursuit of holiness come at the expense of our happiness? Actually, no! When we go to God’s Word, we see that the terms “happiness” and “joy” are used interchangeably. In fact, we see the key to effectively glorifying God in our lives is by enjoying Him. Our holiness and happiness are intricately connected! God desires for you to be happy knowing that He alone is the Source of our holiness and happiness.   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

How should believers approach physical health? Should we even care? Robin Long shares how she approaches physical health as a believer. Exercising consistently doesn’t have to be motivated by the scale or our culture’s definition of beauty. It can be motivated by a deep desire to honor the gift God has given us in our bodies. It can be done with the understanding that God made us body, mind, and soul. It doesn’t have to be all-consuming, but it can be a way to better love and serve God and others.   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Lent begins tomorrow. You don’t have to observe Lent, but it can be helpful to prepare your heart for Easter. One thing people often associate with Lent is fasting. Fasting is not unique to Christianity. However, there are spiritual purposes behind fasting that make it a worthwhile discipline for every believer. In Scripture, we see that fasting is often associated with feasting. It’s not just about abstaining from something! It’s saying “no” to something in order to say “yes” to more of God!   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Missing the mark. Not measuring up. Failing. The question is: what standard are we using? What set of expectations do we feel like we’re failing to meet? And what do we do with our feelings of failure? There are three different categories of standards we should all consider: God’s, ours, and the world’s. Having a proper understanding of these standards can help us better define failure. And as believers, we have the truths of the gospel to help us navigate all of our perceived failures!   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Self-care: our culture glorifies it, and many in the church shun it. What are believers to think? Is self-care contrary to a self-giving life or is there a way to practice it in a way that honors God? As followers, we are to work hard and with excellence in all things. Yet, we know God made us with finite frames needing regular rest. We actually need to practice self-care if we want to love and serve God and others well! This can feel tricky, but God’s Word can help us balance working hard and resting well.   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?

Your social media habits say a lot about you. The truth is, our habits reveal our hearts: our desires, fears, hopes, idols, and more. It’s the appetites of our hearts that drive what we consume and produce online. Our hearts influence the time we spend, how we engage, who we follow, and more. The answer isn’t to abandon social media altogether. We can have healthy habits and steward our platforms for God’s glory! But it will take heart work and some practical application!    Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?
