This is the third and final episode in our mini-series on Sabbath. Austin Catalano has been with Gina the last two episodes - and she's here once again! Austin has become convinced that all disciples of Jesus should consider the instruction of the Lord for His people to take a weekly (and literal 24 hour) Sabbath. This is something she has been doing now for some time, and she has been very honest with us about how reluctant she was to do this - and how hard it was at first. Like all of us, she's busy - busy being a wife and mom, a school leader, and a house church leader. On this episode, she gives us some helpful insight into how to not only press-in to sabbath ourselves, but how to as disciple-makers encourage and lead others in this practice as well.www.3dmovements.com"Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest" by Ruth Haley Barton"Invitation to Retreat" by Ruth Haley Barton

This is the second episode in our three-part series on Sabbath featuring discussions between our host, Gina Mueller, and Austin Catalano. Austin is a wife, mother, school leader and house church leader who has embraced taking a weekly 24-hour Sabbath. She's back on this episode to continue talking about how important it is to rest by pressing-in to the God-given gift of Sabbath so that disciples can move toward living a more balanced Jesus-Shaped Life.www.3dmovements.com"Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest" by Ruth Haley Barton"Invitation to Retreat" by Ruth Haley Barton

This episode begins a 3-part series on the Sabbath where Gina and Austin Catalano talk about how important it is to rest and press-in to the God-given gift of Sabbath so that we can live a balanced Jesus-Shaped Life. Austin is a familiar voice on this podcast, and she's back to talk about the importance of Sabbath - mainly because she's studied it at length and because she fought against the concept of Sabbath keeping for a long time like most of us probably do! She is a wife, mother, school leader, house church leader, and Sabbath keeper, and she has so much to offer us as we think about our own work/rest rhythm and the importance of taking advantage of the gift of Sabbath that God offers us.www.3dmovements.com"Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest" by Ruth Haley Barton"Invitation to Retreat" by Ruth Haley Barton

On this episode, Gina is joined by a familiar voice in the 3DM Movement - Bob Rognlien. Bob is the chairman of the board of 3DM North America. He's also an author, teacher, and archaeological guide with over 30 years of experience leading groups on archaeological and spiritual journeys in the Middle East. Bob joins Gina today for a discussion about what it takes to be an imitator of Jesus - to live a Jesus-Shaped Life - and they share stories and experiences from their lives as they and their families are working toward living consistent Jesus Shaped Lives.3DM Web Site: www.3dmovements.comEveryday Mission Podcast Web Site: www.3dmovements.com/podcast"SWOT Your Life" Resource: www.3dmovements.com/resources-3/swot-reflection-tool

Recently, the leaders of 3DM North America gathered to worship, pray, learn, and talk about the vision of the movement. Some of our leaders presented short "TED Talks," and on this episode, we are featuring one of them. Austin Catalano who is a wife, mother, school leader and house church leader spoke about how parents can think and parent missionally as they raise their kids. Specifically, her challenge is for parents to consider ways that they can prepare their children to grow into missional adults. Austin's talk was so powerful and helpful that we are sharing it with you - and then our host and director of 3DM North America, Gina Mueller, chimes in to share her thoughts about missional parenting.3DM Website: www.3dmovements.com

When it comes to being a disciple and making disciples, what are you? Are you more a theologian or more a practitioner? Most of us are one or the other, but Gina's guest on this episode helps us see the importance of being both. David Broberg is the Assistant Director of Discipleship at Gordon–Conwell Theological Seminary in Massachusetts, so - for sure - he's a theologian. But, he's also been in a 3DM Huddle where he was sharpened in his disciple-making practices and called it 'life changing!" So, he's a theologian and a practitioner as well! David shares how important it is to be both in discipleship and disciple-making, and he shares some stories from his neighborhood where he and his wife have seen God at work.www.3dmovements.com www.3dmovements.com/podcast Recovering the Way by Bob Rognlien

What happens when a family who is new to a town - a town where it's "weird" for neighbors to get together - park their grill in their front yard and fire it up? Actually, pretty cool things happen - like laughter, sharing, new friendships, and even "church!" This is the story of Gina's guests on this episode. Rob and Kelly Abrams hold family-on-mission as a high value, so when they moved their family from New Jersey to Maine a few years back, they came with a plan! And this plan shaped not only their home's design, but it also shaped their family calendar, their people interactions, and even when they fired up their grill and what they put on it!3DM Web Site: www.3dmovements.comEveryday Mission Podcast Web Site: www.3dmovements.com/podcast"SWOT Your Life" Resource: www.3dmovements.com/resources-3/swot-reflection-tool
