K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books.Have you heard about George, the thriving fiddle leaf fig Candace has? Over the years, she has tended to it, nourished it, and cared for it. And just like she has taken care of her fiddle leaf fig, we attend to our space and assignments. There are things that can distract us or sabotage our space. Like foxes that steal from gardens and impact future fruitfulness, there are things that get in our way and impact our future ability to grow. What are situations or issues that distract you within your space? Is there something that feels like it could totally sabotage your assignments? It might be easy to think of external issues, but often we get in our own way. The good news is that there is a river of love and unlimited resources of all we need – it comes from God. And when you are in the river, your cup always overflows. Cultivate what matters in life, nourish your assignments, tend to your spaces, and watch them flourish and grow. In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  What tending your space means and how you can tend to it well  Things that can sabotage or distract our own assignments and space (and sometimes, it can be our own selves)  Ways they structure their life to combat things that try to distract and sabotage them How cultivating your relationship with God and others will support you as you tend your space  Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong. For all things mentioned in this episode head over to https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/10Thank you to this episode’s sponsors: AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com/TruPlay: TruPlayGames.com Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books. When it comes to owning our space, sometimes we may find ourselves shrinking back. Maybe it’s because we fear failing and being hurt, we lack bravery, or are too comfortable.  On the other end of the spectrum, sometimes we can swell within our space. We find ourselves stepping over the lines of our space and into the sphere of someone else’s.  Think about it this way: you show up to a theater to watch a play. The seats are assigned and you sit in the wrong seat. Not only are you taking up someone else’s space, but you are missing out on your own. Sound familiar?  Knowing who you are, who you are not, where you start, and where you end is incredibly powerful when it comes to discovering (and living out) your God-given purpose.  Let us encourage you: You don’t need to be the one that fills all the spaces. You just need to fill your own space, with the gifts, talents and experiences you have.  In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  Taking up space that belongs to someone else; what that means and why it is important that we should be aware of it  Knowing who you are, who you are not, where you start and where you end (self-differentiating, which can be really hard to do!)  What the hula-hoop space is and how understanding your circle, and the circle of others, will you own your space well  How shrinking back relates to growth and stretching  Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong.  For all things mentioned in this episode head over to  https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/09 Thank you to this episode’s sponsors: AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books. Have you ever watched a video of a child getting a cochlear implant and hearing for the first time? Typically the parent’s first words to their child are about their identity. They tell them their name and how loved they are. God wants us to turn on our listening hearts so He can tell us the same things. He wants to tell us our identity and our worth, and wants to offer direction to our lives. But we must have a God-listening heart to truly hear what He is saying.  How do you determine what is a good idea and what is God’s idea? It is a question we’ve all asked and wrestled with, especially when navigating our purpose in life. This is where discernment comes in. And not the kind of discernment you may be used to hearing about. A discernment to know where God is leading you starts with a heart to hear and listen to His voice.  And as you develop your God-listening heart, you will be able to discern what your responsibility is (and is not) in the world. He will guide and lead you to discover your purpose.  In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  Understanding discernment from the perspective of wisdom  How important it is to sit and listen to God when you pray (it’s not just about talking to God)  Journal prompts you can use to begin sitting with and listening to God’s voice as you pray  Discerning what is our responsibility and what is not our responsibility Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong.  For all things mentioned in this episode head over to  https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/08 Thank you to this episode’s sponsors:  AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com/ Boll and Branch https://www.bollandbranch.com Promo Code CANDACE Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books. In the last four episodes, Heather + Candace broke down the Boundary Lines of Time, Place, Wiring, and Experience. They all fit together and help you navigate decisions, give direction to your purpose, and clarity to your assignments in life. In today’s conversation Heather + Candace are going to help you make sense of using those Boundary Lines to Draw Up Your Space.   “Where God has you is where Jesus is.” We gather at church but when we leave, we go into the world in different places and spaces that help define our purpose. We are made to bring Jesus to the natural places we go throughout our lives. If you were only in a space where you felt 100% safe and constantly comfortable, you could be missing out on God using you to reach the world in the ways He calls us to. Don’t miss out on the space He puts you in. Draw your space and discover your purpose through the Boundary Lines of Time, Place, Wiring and Experience.  In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  Moments they have seen the 4 Boundary Lines clarify their purpose  Ways you can bring an awareness of Jesus into your everyday life as you draw up your space  A current decision Candace is navigating; Heather guides her through the Boundary Lines to help bring clarity and direction to the decision  Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong.  For all things mentioned in this episode head over to  https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/07 Thank you to this episode’s sponsors: AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books. Do your experiences in life provide clarity as you discover your purpose? YES! Absolutely.  Experiences shape your life + character. As you walk through different experiences, not only does your purpose become more clear, but your ability to sit with others during their life journey expands. You can hold hope for others when they feel hopeless and encourage them to the other side of that difficulty.  What about hard circumstances? How do they impact your purpose? Sometimes it feels easier to hold onto past situations that were difficult to go through, and are difficult to heal from. But by doing that, ultimately you hold yourself back from all God has for you, and the purpose He has for your life. You can allow your circumstances to shape you, in a positive or negative way.  In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  Moments in life they can look back on and see how God used their experiences for a greater purpose  Being able to sit with others in hard seasons because of going through difficult seasons  How experiences help you hold hope for someone else walking through life The importance of moving forward from your past situations, and not allowing them to hold you back from your future  Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong.  To hear more about Candace’s experience on Dancing With The Stars and how it shaped her, listen to Season 1, Episode 10.  For all things mentioned in this episode head over to  https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/06 Thank you to this episode’s sponsors: AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books. "I want to be like _____ . I wish I had _____ like _____.” Have you ever made statements like those? It is easy to desire to be like someone else or want a quality someone else might have that you do not, but living like someone else is not living out YOUR purpose. Your wiring is unique and God made you with that wiring for a greater reason.  When it comes to discovering your purpose, looking at your gifts and talents, strengths and weaknesses is the best place to start. Putting your energy into how you are wired will lead you towards discovering your identity and embracing your purpose.  If you don’t use your wiring to fuel your purpose, you are only half-living. And using your gifts will encourage others to discover theirs, and live their life on purpose and with a purpose. So … be you, and live your life through your unique wiring!  In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  Strengths + weaknesses; why they matter to how you are wired  How discovering your gifts and talents will help you discover your purpose  Being mislabeled and how that can sometimes be labeled a “problem” but is how you are wired  Feeling like you are sitting on the bench in life, and not part of the game but how cheering others on (or sitting on the bench) serves great purpose  Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong.  If you are curious about your Spiritual Gifts, take THIS test to learn more.  For all things mentioned in this episode head over to  https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/05 Thank you to this episode’s sponsors:  AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com Boll and Branch https://www.bollandbranch.com Promo Code CANDACE Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books. Did you know that Candace once moved 18 times in 12 years? It can be challenging to establish new roots, build community, and find purpose when you are constantly moving. But one thing we can ALL do wherever we find ourselves is this: find purpose in it. Embrace the places in front of you; the ones you physically find yourself standing in every day. Whether that is inviting people into your home, helping your neighbors, talking to the mom pushing her stroller, or living life with others. When you show up to those places, you will discover your purpose. Because God wants to use YOUR places for His purpose.  In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  Where they grew up and how that shaped who they are.  Embracing places right in front of you and seeing them as valuable  How inviting people into your home and living your life in front of others is the best witness you can be  Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong.  For all things mentioned in this episode head over to https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/04 Thank you to this episode's sponsor: AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books.Picture this: you sit down with your spouse or family after a long day.. They’re all talking about their day, but you don’t hear a word. You are glazed over and your mind is elsewhere. Sound familiar? Being present isn’t always easy. But it is valuable. If we can become more aware of being present, then we give room for God to use us to occupy the spaces and places we are in. Time is a complex concept to understand and grasp but there is SUCH significance to this moment, right now, where you find yourself in life. There is a great purpose in the season you find yourself in. We see our life in little chunks of time. God sees the full picture; our full timeline. Do we trust Him with that timeline? God will use the spaces you occupy to build your character and expand your perspective. You may have heard this famous quote before: How you spend your minutes is how you spend your life. Our challenge in this episode is this: are you stewarding your time well? Let’s dive in. In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  The complexity of time and the how we see time versus how God sees time  What time has to do with occupying your God-given space and finding purpose  Moments in their life that carry significant meaning in the overall timeline of their lives  The value of being present to where you are in your everyday life Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong. For all things mentioned in this episode head over to https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/03Thank you to this season's sponsors: AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com/One Share: My.OneShareHealth.com/Candace Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books.Have you ever been in a season where you feel stuck? You look around and don’t see success or purpose with where your feet are planted. You don’t feel qualified (or sometimes comfortable) doing what God has called you to do in that season. Success. It is a word that carries individual meaning and can change from season to season of life. But at the end of it all, success comes from a humble place of fully occupying your God-given space. Because it’s not about us, it’s about Him and His purpose. It’s not about us feeling qualified, it’s about who He is and how He works through us to fill the gaps. In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  Moments in their life where the “definition of success” changed and how others around them responded to those changes Good advice, bad advice, right advice, and how we ultimately need to listen to God’s direction and wisdom  The difference (literally and biblically) between humble and humility  Trusting that God is doing something bigger in the assignments He gives you, that are not easy or comfortable  Head to Candace.com to download the FREE guide, and to order Heather’s latest book, Right Where You Belong. For all things mentioned in this episode head over to https://ccbpodcast.com/episodes/season-2/02Thank you to this season's sponsors: AccessMore https://www.accessmore.com/One Share: My.OneShareHealth.com/Candace Learn more about your ad choices.

K-LOVE Books are available wherever you by books. We have all struggled at some point to understand God’s will and purpose for our lives. And in different seasons, we may also feel like we are missing out, forgotten or doing less important work than what He has for us. That simply isn’t true!  God’s will is at work all the time and He invites us to join Him. We miss out on His will when we don’t accept those invitations. He gives us assignments in life that fulfill His will in our life and in our world.  God is inviting you to fulfill His purpose for your life in the assignments He is placing around you. You are not too young, too old, too late, and you don’t need to do it perfectly. You are right where you are supposed to be.  If you are in the middle of God’s will, you are never missing out, forgotten, or doing work that is less than. Be faithful with the assignments He gives you because you never know where they will lead you.  In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss:  Discovering they were in a magazine together in 1992 and how being faithful to writing brought Heather to where she is today  Moments they felt like they missed out on opportunities as they shifted focus from raising careers to raising their children The fear of missing out, feeling forgotten and less important  Understanding and finding God’s purpose in the various assignments He calls you to throughout your life  What motherhood taught Candace about God’s will and purpose for her life Do you ever feel like you are trying to figure everything out and don’t even know where to start?
