Christmas is a time of rejoicing. It’s a time to think about what has become commonplace. We’ve spent a month reminding ourselves of what a miracle our redemption is, and today we rejoice in it!

Praising God’s work is a theme we can trace through the whole Bible. It’s often after God has shown Himself the mighty rescuer of His people. Christ’s death allowed people outside of Israel to enter His church. This expansion of his kingdom gives us even more reason to celebrate His salvation with one another.

The more we understand how loved we are, the easier it is to proactively love those who are put into our lives. I want to wrap up with 1 John 4:19, “We love because he first loved us.” When we imitate the love of Christ it is a glimpse of the kingdom He is bringing.

When we understand His glory it doesn’t just sit in our own hearts, but it’s contagious in the best possible way. When we see and understand what He’s done for us, it begins to ooze out of us. Spreading love and joy to those around us. This is just one piece of the way the Kingdom of Heaven brings peace on earth!

In our modern Christmas traditions, it is tempting to rush past the dark and quiet places of waiting. Advent will slow you down to remember the darkness before He came. It also allows for reflection on our own current human experience. Yes, Christ has come and we have so much to rejoice in. Yet, practically, we live in a world that is still incredibly broken.
As you remember the longing it allows you, as you wait, to know that God is faithful. When time stretches thin, He is there even if you can’t see how He will work right now!

If God kept his promises all the times mentioned in Chronicles, then God kept his promise made at the end of Chronicles, we can know that he will keep his promise to bring a new kingdom.

When we don’t take time to memorialize what God has done we forget about it. Things that are hard tend to consume more of our thoughts than things that are joyful, so we have to be intentional to remember the things God has done!

It’s easy to think about the hard things that COULD happen to us. That often leads to overwhelming anxiety. But this verse promises (and I’ve found to be true) that when the hard times come the hope of Christ’s work to defeat death meets us with supernatural peace. We can rest knowing that nothing takes God by surprise, and he is with us in the trials and will provide us with peace when they come.

Because he lived, died, and resurrected we can face our trials and even have the option of faith resulting from it! But here is the best part. You don’t have to squeeze out fruit on your own. You don’t have to muster enough faith to produce fruit. Our fruit is an extension of his work and flows from him through us.

For me, the new year feels like it starts in November, so it feels appropriate to have this conversation now. Every October my new planner arrives at the perfect time in October, so I can get started thinking through my new year! By late December I’m way too tired to be objective.
Why is planning important? I’ve talked to people before about how I plan and they look at me like I’m a three-headed monster.
Thinking about time in seasons
What is your favorite question to intentionally ask yourself before a new season? How to decide what is lifegiving.
We see time as a gift that we choose how we use it.
What’s the hardest part of planning? How to hold plans loosely!

A sacrifice of praise is shifting the heart’s position to recognize you don’t create the good in your own life and that good things don’t come to you by luck, attraction, or manifesting. All good is given to you by God. When you choose to do something, even pleasurable for the right reasons, or recognize your own story in the middle of God's bigger story.

I love a good personality test. Seeing who we are as individuals in light of the whole community has really helped me kick some of my comparison tendencies.

No matter how dark life gets, we give thanks that he has entered our darkness and brought the light of hope. This is why we eat in remembrance of him. The world is broken. Things were not as they should be, and yet Christ entered it to make a way to restore us back to himself. He was broken in the place of the brokenness we encounter, so the hope he is can be ours. So take heart and remember Christ’s body broken for you.

The food and traditions our families have are so important. Jesus told stories and disciples around the table with his followers. You may noticed there are so many themed cookbooks that are out there to inspire and disciple us into things like "The World of Hogwarts" or "Gillmore Girls." Trillia has done something really neat. She's taken the stories of Black heroes of faith and combined it with discipleship and mouth-watering recipes! To make learning history a joy!
How have stories of your family and how food has played a role in that?
I come from a different culture. You've said, "Knowledge doesn't equal understanding." But how does taking time to dive into things that bring joy give better understanding?
It's wild so many kids hate history. How have you used food to change that for your family?Do you have some favorite heroes of faith? How have they impacted you?
How have you found food drawing people in, especially your kids? How do we use that for discipleship?I've linked Trillia's book "Celebrate Around the Table" and you can find her HERE on Instagram.

Life takes a lot of twists and turns that we don't see coming. What we do with those and how we spend our moments is how we spend our lives.

This verse and this story is a reminder that God sees those who are being abused, subjugated, and sinned against. In Old Testament law looking out for the underprivileged and foreigners were directly tied to blessings, and God promised judgment for abusing them to build up one’s self.

If an alien were transplanted to earth, it wouldn't take long scrolling any social media platform to realize humans don't want to age. In fact, they will spend a lot of money not to look like time is passing. I'm encouraged by the way my friend Maryanne talks about how we can age in wisdom when the promise of eternal youth rings hollow.
This topic is coming at such an amazing time for me. I'm turning 35 this year, and our season has very much shifted. We went from being the youngest wherever we went to now moms with just toddlers asking me what it was like parenting for me when my kids were "little." I feel like I had come to terms with that, but I still very much feel myself freaking out.
What encouragement would you have for me or women my age? When you look in the mirror... not how have you changed, but rather how has the way you've seen yourself changed over the years?
What have your 40s revealed about what is important? How does it reveal who we are becoming when things we once defined ourselves by are stripped away?
I think many people fear the way their marriage will shift as they get older. How have you seen marriage change as you and your husband have aged?

It’s easy to limit how we think of God’s healing power. We jump to physical healing and provision. But The Bible shows us times when God healed physically (2 Kings 5:10), emotionally (Psalm 34:18), mentally (Daniel 4:34), and spiritually (Psalm 103:2–3). Jesus reinforces the idea of holistic healing by doing the same during his ministry.

It’s easy to think if we just work hard enough we can get anything we want. The messages of manifesting tell us that if we can dream it we can do it, we just have to want it badly enough. Tara sounds a lot like me when she self-describes as a “control freak." She was chasing her dreams until one day she heard the voice of God saying “You aren’t supposed to be here.” That changed her life.
What happened after God spoke to you? What did you do next?
How does the “girl boss” movement affect Christian women? Have you found yourself tempted toward limitlessness?
What have you lost when you don’t slow down? Have you seen this in the lives of others?
How have you seen God guide people to move forward, and also to stop? Does this depend on the season?
We are told to be “strong independent women.” What does independence get us, and what does it lose us?
How have you grown to know God better by leaning on him?
