Rhythms for Life

It is such a treat to have Anjuli Paschall on this week's episode! Anjuli challenges listeners to pump the brakes, stop running, and open your eyes to the things happening around you. When toxic bullies like fear, shame, and disappointment begin to surround you, what would it look for you to stay and face the giants versus running until they catch up again? Anjuli Paschall is the founder of The Moms We Love Club and writes regularly for (in)courage, a widely followed online community of Christian women. In her new book, "Stay: Discovering Grace, Freedom, and Wholeness Where You Never Imagined Looking," Anjuli reminds us that the deep end of your story is the way to intimacy with Christ. We hope this episode encourages you today!Links:To grab a copy of Anjuli's new book "Stay" click HERE!To take the quiz and discover your healthiest rhythm, click HERE.To read Rebekah's latest book, Rhythms of Renewal, click HERE.A special thank you to this week's sponsor, Samaritan Ministries!

It is such an honor to have our beautiful and talented friend, Meshali Mitchell, on today's episode! Meshali is a storyteller, photographer, and a true artist. She has captured treasured moments of our family time after time, and her voice carries such grace and wisdom. Meshali tells us how God has allowed her trials and past hurts to take her on a journey of healing and restoration. This restoration process of leaning into God has given her the capacity and endurance to keep trusting Him. This is a such a relatable message as we all have areas that have hurt us, and we all have things we are waiting on. We know you will love this episode.

We were designed to dream, and to take responsibility for those dreams. We were made for meaning. Today's episode on the Quarantine Rhythms series is meant to ignite a spark in each of us on recognizing those hidden talents, hopes, and dreams that over the last several years or decades of our lives may have been brushed to the side. For some of us, we may immediately know what those are and be able to pinpoint  exactly when it was that they got pushed to the side. For others of us, we may feel stumped and realize that we may have never been able to identify what those unique talents are.In this conversation, Gabe and Rebekah share a part of their individual stories on how discovering their talents and dreams actually led them down the pathways to where they find themselves now.Links:To learn more about the Q 2020 Virtual Summit, click HERE!To take the quiz and learn your healthiest rhythm, click HERE!To grab a copy of Rebekah's latest book, Rhythms of Renewal, click HERE.You can find Viktor Frankl's book, Man's Search For Meaning, HERE.

We simply cannot be bearers of the truth and preach the word if we are not in fellowship personally with Jesus. When we are close to Him and make that room for Him, it overflows into everything and everyone around us. We cannot serve from emptiness - using our own words and thoughts to give direction to others. It is a daily rhythm of spending time with the Lord and falling more in love with Him that allows us to go out and spread the word to others, even if only in our own neighborhoods. Today's episode with Francis Chan is an inspiring conversation that serves as an important reminder for many ears right now. Chan provides us with practical ways on how  to serve the areas that we have been placed in, and he prays a powerful prayer over us at the end of this conversation. Links:To grab a copy of Rhythms of Renewal, click HERE.Interested in learning more about the two-day Q Conference Virtual Summit?

How could apologizing make a difference in your home right now? Regardless of what home or quarantine looks like for you, we are all  experiencing new territory together. The routines that we had prior have come to a screeching halt. There is more time and more attention to give, and we believe that God is using this time to restore relationships. Maybe there is someone you were once close to and things fell apart. Could you give them a phone call and simply say "I'm sorry, will you forgive me?" Could we actually use this time to provide valuable life lessons for the young ears in our homes and demonstrate what it looks like to slow down enough to not gloss over conflicts? What better time than now to get to the root of some of the things we may have been struggling with for years. The best response when connection is broken is not to push away but rather the opposite, to pull in. Links:To grab a copy of Rebekah's latest book, Rhythms of Renewal, click HERE!To listen to the audio version of Rhythms of Renewal, click HERE.Thank you to our sponsor!

This time in continued isolation is becoming more and more of a routine, and you may find that the excitement and energy behind the fun ideas you had originally planned for your time at home have quickly faded away. We hope this episode encourages you today to think outside the box and get creative with those around you. Making memories helps us step outside ourselves, even if just for a moment.

This week on the Quarantine Series, we chose to focus on a topic that may seem simple, but it is crucial right now. We are all feeling a little stir crazy during this uncharted time of being separated from others and staying home. However, this doesn't mean that we can't get outside and take a walk. Walking is critical for the restoration of our mental health, creativity, and productivity.  We want to challenge you to make walking a priority. There is great mental and physical relief in getting to walk alongside your spouse (or the person you are in quarantine with), as we face this together. Are you ready to join the Rhythms for Life Learning Community?
