the remind{h}er podcast91: Make RoomFasting is a spiritual practice that can often feel intimidating, unfamiliar, and even mysterious. But it can be practiced in many different forms, and today, as we approach the season of Lent, we're considering how fasting might aid us in focusing on the heart of God, deepening our awareness of God’s presence and provision, and better attuning ourselves to God’s guidance and will. Maybe when we choose to fast, we make room for the movement of God in our lives. I hope you'll listen in. Judy Sorum Brown Sign up to receive The Re{c...
2023-02-1511 minthe remind{h}er podcast90: Seek First the Kingdom of GodWhen it comes to getting things done, I am a list-maker. And part of why I find list-making so helpful is that makes it easier for me to prioritize. Easier to determine how I can best give of my time, energy, and attention. It keeps me focused and track, helping me remember what is most important. As followers of Jesus, then, it might be important to consider what Jesus prioritized. After all, don't we want to seek what Jesus most sought? So if Jesus had a to-do list of sorts, I wonder what would top the list?...
2023-02-0115 minthe remind{h}er podcast89: Slow DownHurry. Hustle. Don’t miss out. Don’t fall behind. Get ahead. Be efficient. Stay busy. Keep up. Whether we realize or not, this is familiar messaging that’s actually forming us. And it creates an exhausting expectation. It’s a standard we’re striving for, but I wonder if it is the standard we were created for. If you're feeling the anxiety of hurry and hustle, listen in.

2023-01-1812 minthe remind{h}er podcast88: PracticeWell, it’s that time of year again. The beginning of the year, actually. And it seems that every time the beginning comes around, we enter in with the best of intentions, maybe some newfound resolutions, hopes, goals. There’s just something about the promise of a fresh start, a new beginning, that prompts in us the desire to refocus, recalibrate, maybe even reimagine our lives a bit. The goals we set and the resolutions we make all need time, commitment, and practice. And I'm learning that the same can be said for our faith. It’s easy to...
2023-01-0413 minthe remind{h}er podcast87: Mary's Song {Luke 1:39-56}Today I’m offering a simple reading of and reflection on what might be a familiar passage this time of year.

2022-12-2107 minthe remind{h}er podcast86: Name What You WantDesire can be a tricky thing. But I'm learning that desire might be worth paying attention to. When we choose to lean into our desires and acknowledge what it is we want, we are better enabled to become the people God created us to be. When we name them, we can better consider if our desires are leading us closer to the heart of God as we seek to grow into and resemble the character of Christ in the world around us. Yes, naming what we want is risky; but naming what we want is also good.
2022-12-0715 minthe remind{h}er podcast85: Give Thanks to the Lord {Psalm 107}If you are listening in real-time, tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day 2022. And today, I’d like to offer a simple reading of a psalm of thanksgiving, Psalm 107, followed by a few questions for reflection. And please know, even after the Thanksgiving holiday, you’re invited to listen in and remember all there is to be thankful for. As always, I hope it serves you well. www.remindherpodcast.com
2022-11-2308 minthe remind{h}er podcast84: God ProvidesI don’t know about you, but I don’t always need the same things. My needs often shift and change. As we approach Thanksgiving, I’m learning to notice God’s provision, knowing that God will meet me where I am and provide exactly what I need, even if it isn't necessarily what I want. Today, if you are feeling the weight of your need, listen in. Website: www.remindherpodcast.com I'm now booking speaking engagements for Spring of 2023 and beyond! Interested in having me share with your group? Fill out the form HERE and I'll b...
2022-11-0914 minthe remind{h}er podcast83: We BelongOne thing I'm learning is, there isn’t a one-mold-model we need to fit into before we can belong in the kingdom of God. Yes, the likeness of Jesus is the standard we seek, but the image of God is found in all sorts of different shapes and sizes, patterns and colors, stories and perspectives. God is present, even in unexpected places. And God is at work, even in mysterious ways. Even if we don’t understand or agree or relate. Maybe we don't have to match in order to belong. Listen in. A Gentle Answe...
2022-10-2611 minthe remind{h}er podcast82: Examen Your LifeIn the last episode, we talked about the importance of being where you are. And I heard from a few listeners wondering how to do that. While there is rarely a one-size-fits-all solution, today I'm offering a spiritual practice that has proven to be helpful {for me} as we seek to be more aware of God's presence and, in turn, more fully present ourselves. Today, we are considering the Daily Examen and how looking back can help us move forward with a posture that is more aware of and attune to the movement of the Spirit. Listen in...
2022-10-1212 minthe remind{h}er podcast81: Be Where You AreEach day, we are invited to be where we are. Fully. Wholly. Present and attentive to the cadence of our lives and the location of our souls. And our ability to be present depends on our awareness of God’s presence. In other words, our ability to be where we are is greatly influenced by whether or not we sense God’s presence where we are. The truth is that God is always with us. Part of life as followers of Jesus is choosing and learning to notice. Listen in, right where you are. www...
2022-09-2812 minthe remind{h}er podcast80: You Are the Salt of the EarthWe often use the phrase, "They are salt of the earth" to describe someone we consider good, honest, and pure. The phrase originated in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount and it also describes our call as followers of Jesus. In today's episode, we are considering the implications of being called the salt of the earth and how it relates to our purpose and participation in God's kingdom work. Listen in. Surprised By Hope by N.T. Wright Learn more about the flavor of salt HERE www.remindherpodcast.com
2022-09-1412 minthe remind{h}er podcast79: Good Morning MerciesWhile it’s important to be honest about our shortcomings and to work through them faithfully, part of what I’m learning to remember is that there’s always an invitation to begin again. God is always creating new blooms to greet us, always providing new mercies for fresh starts. I don’t know about you, but most days, that’s exactly what I need. And I’m learning to trust that it’s true. That we can confidently expect new mercies each day. If you tend to be your own worst critic, listen in. Find out...
2022-08-3110 minthe remind{h}er podcast78: Psalm 139In today's episode, feel free to listen in to a simple reading of Psalm 139. May it remind you of God's care, intention, and presence in the middle of it all. Website: www.remindherpodcast.com
2022-08-1706 minthe remind{h}er podcast77: John 15In the past two episodes, we talked about the importance of holding on to who you are in Christ. Another way of saying the same thing is that we talked about the importance of abiding in Christ, of staying connected to God so that we can more fully embrace, lean into, and become the people God is calling us to be: People who love and people who bear fruit that reflects the heart of Jesus. In light of this, today, I would love to simply read a passage of scripture which talks about just that. If you a...
2022-08-0306 minthe remind{h}er podcast76: Hold On to Who You Are | Build a Rule of LifeFor many of us, when we hear the term, "Rule of Life" it can seem a bit too structured, strict, or inflexible. We don't like the idea of being trapped by a rule. But a Rule of Life isn't meant to be constricting; it's meant to help us grow. And "structured" doesn't necessarily mean "set-in-stone." In today's episode, we will explore what a Rule of Life is, why it might be important to consider having one, and what it might look like to build your own as we continue to hold on to who we are and...
2022-07-2014 minthe remind{h}er podcast75: Hold On to Who You Are | Core Values & Vital BehaviorsWhen our lives are disrupted in some way--whether the disruption is good or bad--it's easy to feel a bit disoriented and out-of-sorts as we adapt. One thing I'm learning is the importance of staying tethered and holding on to who I am in Christ in the midst of what feels uncertain or unsteady. This looks like identifying my core values and vital behaviors and it has made all the difference for me as I continue to lean into who God created me to be, in and through the inevitable twists and turns of life. It helps me r...
2022-07-0615 minthe remind{h}er podcast74: Maybe God Is Bad at MathHave you ever considered that maybe, God is bad at math? I'm not suggesting that God doesn't understand math, but it does seem that God chooses not to practice it in the same ways we tend to. When it comes to the heart of God, God doesn't always stick to the understood rules of a mathematical equation. It seems counting and math work differently in the kingdom of God. Today, if it feels like things in life aren't adding up, listen in. Count Your Chickens | Board Game by Peacable Kingdom St...
2022-06-2211 minthe remind{h}er podcast73: A Faith That FlowsI recently graduated with a M.A. in Christian Spiritual Formation and Leadership and in today's episode, I'm sharing one of my biggest takeaways. In order to have a faith that is living, active, and guided by the Holy Spirit, we must breathe in the Spirit of God and we must breathe out the Spirit of God in the world around us as we participate in the building of God's kingdom, here and now. What might this look like? Listen in. remind{h}er 64: Lean In M. Robert Mulholland Surprised By Hope by...
2022-06-0812 minthe remind{h}er podcast72: Practice Getting LostUsually, when we think of getting lost, we don't think of it as being a good thing. But there is a kind of getting lost that, in the context of our faith, might not necessarily be a bad thing. There can be something good about stepping outside the lines of a familiar path, about forging a new one, about gaining a different perspective, about having to really pay attention to where we are because maybe we've never been there before. And this kind of lost can actually be kind of wonderful. I'm learning that sometimes, faithfulness looks...
2022-05-2512 minthe remind{h}er podcast71: Isaiah 40If you are like me, sometimes we forget what a gift it is to have the pages of Scripture at our fingertips. While there are powerful resources out there that help to highlight the heart of God in the pages of Scripture, there is something powerful, too, about letting the inspired words of Scripture stand alone, trusting that the Spirit can inspire us as we read {or listen}, too. So today, you are invited to listen for the reminders already tucked inside the comforting message of Isaiah 40. Website: www.remindherpodcast.com
2022-05-1110 minthe remind{h}er podcast70: Remember What You Like About YourselfIf you're like me, your inner critic can be pretty noisy and discouraging. Which is why, sometimes, it's important to remember what you like about yourself. To remember that God not only loves you, but likes you, too. As we continue becoming the people God calls us to be, we can also remember God's delight in who we already are. Today, if you find the voice of your inner critic booming and loud, listen in. And you might even get to hear a few things I like about myself, too :) remind{h}er 4: Our Words...
2022-04-2712 minthe remind{h}er podcast69: Follow the Foot{washing}steps of JesusIn today's episode, we read about the night Jesus washed his disciples' feet and the example he set in doing so. As we look back, reflect, and remember this humble act of Jesus, we are invited to consider together the kind of posture Jesus invites us to assume; the kind of life Jesus invites us to live. Today, if you are longing for a seat at the head of the table, listen in. Transcript/Website: www.remindherpodcast.com Speaking Inquiries: Click HERE! Instagram: @remindherpodcast
2022-04-1312 minthe remind{h}er podcast68: God Is Faithful In Our EmptinessWhether we recognize it or not, experiencing forms of emptiness is part of our reality as human beings. And the good news is, we can be honest about it. We can name our need. The even better news is that our honesty is never without hope. Our faith gives us reason to believe emptiness has potential. It reminds us that ours is a God of wild imagination, creativity, opportunity, and fresh possibility. A God who often does God's best work with broken things in empty spaces. Today, if you are running on empty in one way or...
2022-03-3011 minthe remind{h}er podcast67: God Can Handle Our AngerIt can be easy to feel anger toward certain people, toward systems, toward sin. But what about when we feel anger toward God? When prayers seemingly go unanswered, when illness isn't healed, when suffering lingers, when circumstances don't change? Are we even allowed to admit we sometimes feel that way? I'm learning that God can handle our anger and that God welcomes our honesty, and that is a beautiful thing. If you've ever been mad at God, listen in. What do you do with the Mad that you Feel? by Fred Rogers Instagram...
2022-03-1611 minthe remind{h}er podcast66: Notice the AshesAs we begin the season of Lent this year, I need to remember why we observe it. Most of the time, I'd rather skip ahead to the celebration instead of understanding why we celebrate. I'd rather enjoy the garden instead of digging in and tending to the dirt. I'd rather bask in the beauty instead of acknowledging the reality of the ashes. But Lent is an opportunity to be honest and intentionally notice the presence of God in the midst of the ashes. As we begin this holy season, I hope you'll listen in. NY Times Article b...
2022-03-0212 minthe remind{h}er podcast65: Practice Centering PrayerWhen life feels overwhelming, I find Centering Prayer to be a helpful practice/tool. While it can be awkward and difficult at the beginning, the more we engage in and practice Centering Prayer, the more we move toward our lives becoming centered prayers. We remember who God is and how God works, and we are mindful of who God is calling us to be. We live lives anchored in that truth, even when the waves of life might threaten to toss us to and fro. Today, if you're feeling the effects of a chaotic life, listen in.
2022-02-0910 minthe remind{h}er podcast64: Lean InI don't know if you can relate, but it seems we've forgotten the difference between pain and discomfort. That we've somehow confused staying rightly staying within our safety zone and rightly stepping outside our comfort zone. I'm learning to pay attention to the difference between the warning of pain and the invitation of discomfort. As we come to know and trust the heart of God more fully, we develop the courage to lean in to the discomfort. And when we do, we stretch. We grow. We learn. We heal. We gain new understanding. And we c...
2022-01-2612 minthe remind{h}er podcast63: The Lord Is Your ShepherdAs we settle into the new year, I'm holding onto a small handful of personal unknowns, and the planner in me doesn't quite know how to be. Maybe you can relate? Whether we choose the uncertainty or not, we feel the ache that often accompanies the not knowing, the fear in the pits of our stomachs in the middle of the night, the disorientation of not knowing what's next. As we navigate this thing called life, I'm choosing to remember that we might not have a map, but we do have a Guide. And that m...
2022-01-1211 minthe remind{h}er podcast62: In God's HandsIt's the last episode of 2021! Recently, I've been reminded that God is very much in the details. It's easy for me to think of God and search for God in broad strokes, thinking that God is present in generalities or big movements. But I'm learning that God is also intimately acquainted with the details of who we each uniquely are, and even in the details of our daily lives. May we remember that the details are in God's hands this season. Listen in. Liturgy of the Ordinary by Tish Harrison Warren ...
2021-12-1512 minthe remind{h}er podcast61: Live a Gathered LifeGenerally speaking, life for me often feels very scattered. Like a jar of marbles spilled and rolling every which way across hardwood floors, my focus, my attention, my thoughts often feel divided and all over the place. And in a world that seems to thrive on the frenzy of multi-tasking, I wonder if there could be another way. What might it look like to live a gathered life? To be a gathered person? Fully present, fully known, fully loved? Listen in. Prayer from Ted Loder Website/Transcript: www.remindherpodcast.com Instagram...
2021-11-2410 minthe remind{h}er podcast60: Contribute to the GoodI'm finding that each day, it seems we have a choice. There is an abundance of heartache, spiteful interaction, and mean-spirited rhetoric all around right now. And, while it doesn't get as much attention, there are also hints of goodness, compassion, and loving -kindness tucked away all throughout our days. We get to decide which we're going to be a part of, which we're going to contribute to. In a world filled with so much heaviness, we need to contribute to the good. Not to negate or turn a blind eye toward the hurt, but to help...
2021-11-1010 minthe remind{h}er podcast59: Breathe {When Is Became Was}I'd never watched someone die before, let alone someone I absolutely adored. I'll never forget how I felt in that one sacred moment - when "is" became "was." How literally one last breath had the power to change the tense we used. I hated that change with every ounce of my being. Because I wasn't ready yet. Because just a few moments earlier, he was part of my present. And just like that, he became a part of my past. There are certain moments in life that mark us, change us, alter our perspective. In...
2021-10-2713 minthe remind{h}er podcast58: Welcome Your QuestionsOurs is a culture that loves happily ever afters, neatly tied bows, clear direction, and definitive explanations. We like our mysteries solved, our problems fixed, and our questions answered. In my experience though, life tends to be filled with more questions than answers. And I'm learning and beginning to believe that's okay. It can be easy to assume that being faithful means simply accepting, complying, or being easy-going. But what if God wants us to be curious? What if God wants us to interact and engage and explore? In today's episode, we're leaning in...
2021-10-1312 minthe remind{h}er podcast57: You Are Not a MachineI can page through my journal and pinpoint some rendition of this sentence, especially in the Saturday entries: " I probably wasn't as productive as I should have been." Sound familiar? The truth is, whether we realize it or not, we often operate like machines, rather than live like human beings. We treat ourselves and others like a commodity or a means to end, rather than a living, breathing person made in the image of God. We fail to recognize the whole of our human stories. Today, with the help of the Holy Spirit, we are...
2021-09-2910 minthe remind{h}er podcast56: What Helps You Remember?Each episode, I mention that life often makes it easy to forget - to forget the truth about who God is and who we are called to be. We are prone to forget, and it's important to pay attention to what helps us remember. Because the truth is, we don't all connect with God in the same way. God connects with each of us differently. Uniquely. And the way we each feel connected to God matters. In today's episode, I'm sharing nine different spiritual personalities in the hopes that together, we will remember what helps us remember...
2021-09-1513 minthe remind{h}er podcast55: Be YourselfFred Rogers used to say, "The greatest gift you will ever give is your honest self." While it might sound cliche, there is something powerful about being yourself. And while it might seem simple, being ourselves can also be a challenge. But I'm learning that being who we are is an important call in the context of our faith. Listen in. remind{h}er 23: Our Place in the Puzzle Instagram: @remindherpodcast Website: www.remindherpodcast.com
2021-09-0111 minthe remind{h}er podcast54: Sleep On ItFighting sleep might feel familiar, at least to some degree. I can remember that battle as a child, defying any suggestion that I take a nap or go to bed when I was supposed to. I look back now and don't understand what I was thinking. I long for the days when sleep was encouraged and prioritized. Because the truth is, for most of us grownups nowadays, it's not. One lesson I'm learning is that sleep is actually an important spiritual practice. If our bodies aren't well-rested, our souls won't be either. In many ways, they are...
2021-08-1812 minthe remind{h}er podcast53: Take Off Your ShoesIn our fast-paced world, sometimes I wonder what I'm missing. In my over-functioning, in my distracted frame of mind, when my eyes are locked on my scrolling screen, when I attempt to handle too much - what am I missing? What holy ground do I unintentionally ignore? And what does standing on holy ground even mean? Why does it matter? As we come out of summer and enter full-speed into fall, let's remember to take off our shoes. Listen in. Dr. A.J. Swoboda Remind{h}er 31: Look For the Reminders ...
2021-08-0410 minthe remind{h}er podcast52: When Less Is MoreRecent research shows that we are prone to add and accumulate. We don't hesitate to schedule one more meeting, pencil in one more task on the to-do list, or strive to add one more accolade to the resume. In a society that values productivity, we think that if we aren't adding, we aren't growing. And that could not be further from the truth. I've found that it's really hard for me to love well, serve well, listen well, and learn well when I'm over scheduled, overextended, and spread too thin. I need space to breathe, permission to...
2021-06-0213 minthe remind{h}er podcast51: The Art WithinWe might not think of ourselves as traditional artists, but I've been reminded recently that God inspires us, fills us with God's Spirit, and calls us to create. God uses what we craft as reminders in the world around us. I wonder what your craft might be? What God might inspire in you? God's creativity is on full display in all of us, uniquely in each of us. And we all have something to offer. Listen in. Comfort Bird Etsy Shop Streams of Living Water by Richard Foster Walking on Water b...
2021-05-2612 minthe remind{h}er podcast50: Created For CommunityWe were not created to be isolated. Instead, we were created for community, relationship, and connection. Our faith is enriched when we practice it together. Yes, in the presence of God, but also in the presence of others. Living in the midst of a pandemic has highlighted this for many of us. May we choose connection over convenience and community over comfort. Listen in.

2021-05-1914 minthe remind{h}er podcast49: The Soundtrack of Our LivesYou've probably experienced it in some way, but music is deeply tied to memory. In fact, it has been used for years and years now to help patients with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. The music helps them remember who they are, waking them up inside. It's a beautiful example of an even bigger truth that begs the question, what makes us feel alive? What connects us with the presence of God, reminding us of who God is and who we are? The soundtracks and rhythms of our lives make a difference. Listen in. ...
2021-05-1213 minthe remind{h}er podcast48: The Most Important Thing About YouA.W. Tozer once wrote, "What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." And what we believe comes into God's mind when God thinks about us is pretty important, too. It's easy to forget what God actually thinks of us and instead, start to believe that we are a disappointment, a burden, a chore. But when we remember that God delights in us, finds great joy in relationship with us, both loves us and LIKES us, it changes things. Listen in. The Knowledge of...
2021-05-0512 minthe remind{h}er podcast47: Behind the ScenesIt is often easy to feel like we need to live our lives on full display. If we don't post about it on social media, did it even happen? If we don't receive a thank you or any sort of acknowledgement, was it even worth it? Jesus reminds us that God sees and values what happens in secret. God is at work behind the scenes. Maybe our lives are meant to be cultivated in the hidden spaces -- lived out in the natural overflow of time spent with God. Listen in. The Divine Conspiracy by D...
2021-04-2812 minthe remind{h}er podcast46: God Meets Us On the GroundIt's easy to feel overwhelmed by all the brokenness of our world. And when we do, it makes sense that we would want to turn away, disconnect from reality, remove ourselves from what makes us uncomfortable. But Jesus sets an example by dwelling with us. While many of us would rather keep our heads and hearts in the clouds, God meets us on the ground. God meets us where we are, not where we'd rather be. God enters in to our pain and hardship and as followers of Jesus, we are called to do the same for...
2021-04-2112 minthe remind{h}er podcast45: Keep Showing UpIn today's episode, we are marking and celebrating ONE whole year of the podcast!

The name might vary depending on your tradition, but the sacrament we celebrate at the Table is meant to be a powerful reminder. We recall Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. And through this sacrament, we are enabled to live our lives in remembrance. In this Holy Week episode, we are reflecting on the Last Supper and all it means for the lives we live each and every day.

2021-03-3113 minthe remind{h}er podcast43: Nothing to ProveWe often feel immense pressure to prove ourselves. We start to believe we are what we do, what we look like, what we have, what we can control, or what others say about us. And it is exhausting. I've been learning that Jesus felt this pressure to prove, too. But his identity was grounded in something greater. He was able to rest secure in who God said he was. And he was beloved. Today, if you're being swept away by the pressure to prove, listen in. Instagram: @juleclayton or @remindherpodcast Website...
2021-03-2415 minthe remind{h}er podcast42: Reflect on PurposeThis week marks one year since many of us began to experience changes to our way of life thanks to COVID-19. Several weeks into said changes, I remember thinking to myself, "This is significant and probably something I need to pay attention to." But part of paying attention is intentional reflection. Reflection leads to transformation, allowing us to better reflect the character of Jesus in the world around us. In today's episode, I'm sharing a few of the lessons I've been learning throughout a year of this pandemic, and you're invited to do the same by reflecting o...
2021-03-1713 minthe remind{h}er podcast41: Start With HumilityFor most of my life, I thought humility meant I had to somehow intentionally put myself down or deny any sort of encouragement or affirmation. But as Rick Warren so famously said, "Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself, less." The truth is, we can think too highly and too lowly of ourselves. Either way, the burden of self-focus is exhausting and Jesus offers us a better way. Listen in. Transcript/Website: www.remindherpodcast.com Instagram: @juleclayton or @remindherpodcast
2021-03-1012 minthe remind{h}er podcast40: To Remember By HeartOne of the many things I've been learning recently is the distinction between memorizing Scripture and remembering it. There's a difference between memorizing the words and remembering the message. The latter deeply impacts the people we are becoming and forms us into the people God calls us to be. Today we're exploring what it might practically look like for "the Word of Christ to dwell in us richly." (Colossians 3:16). Listen in.

2021-03-0312 minthe remind{h}er podcast39: When You'd Rather ForgetWe are called to remember. I say that a lot around here. But what about when we'd rather forget? What about when the memories are difficult? What does it look like to faithfully hold a painful past? I don't have all the answers, but those questions are questions I've wrestled with for years in my own life. In today's episode, we consider what that might look like, trusting that looking back often helps us move forward. Listen in.

2021-02-2414 minthe remind{h}er podcast38: A Spirit of HospitalityI am not a natural-born hostess, but I am learning that hospitality is part of our call as followers of Jesus. Hospitality is different than hosting. It goes beyond the walls of our homes and the boundaries of our comfort zones. It's a posture we extend to the world around us. If you often feel pressure to host well or appear like you have it all together, listen in.

2021-02-1009 minthe remind{h}er podcast37: The Power of Playing It SmallIt can be easy to feel so overwhelmed by all that is broken in this world and assume there is nothing we can do to fix it; we might as well just turn the other way. Or it's easy to feel pressure to do something big and loud in order to matter, in order to avoid wasting our time away. But I'm learning there is power in playing it small. And in the Kingdom of God, small can be significant. Listen in. Jim Bachor Instagram: @juleclayton or @remindherpodcast Website: www.remindherpodcast.c...

That all changed a little over a year ago when I made a commitment to cry. If I felt like crying, I would. Good or bad. It's been a year of learning to welcome my tears and listen to the messages they carry. In this episode, I invite you to join me. Arielle Estoria Emily P.

It's leaves were dark and drooping and I could tell it was time for some fresh soil and a larger pot. In this, I was reminded of our need for fresh spiritual soil, especially when the fruit of our lives does not reflect the way of Jesus. What's on the outside is often directly correlated with what's on the inside. And sometimes to continue being transformed, we need to be transplanted. Listen in.

In this episode, we explore what peace means and looks like in the context of our faith. The peace of Christ is both something we experience personally and something we are called to share with the world around us. We find peace when we practice it and pass it along in the context of our actual lives. What might that look like? Listen in.

2021-01-1311 minthe remind{h}er podcast33: God Goes Before YouI am usually all about the fresh start of a new year. But in entering 2021, after a year like 2020, I find myself hesitating, cautious, and taking it slow. I feel a bit intimidated by the uncertainty of what lies ahead. But over the past few weeks, we've celebrated and been reminded of God With Us, and I'm remembering how that also means God goes before us.

I've been learning to trust that God does significant work behind the scenes and that God's faithfulness does not depend on our awareness of it. We might not be able to see or feel it, but when we reflect and remember, we can trace the thread of God's faithfulness all throughout our lives, realizing we never were and never are forgotten or alone.

2020-12-0210 minthe remind{h}er podcast31: Look for the RemindersI don't know about you, but for me, it has been much more difficult to find God's goodness in a year like 2020. But that doesn't mean that God is absent or that there isn't any goodness to be found. It just means that when it isn't as obvious as we would like it to be, seeking it out becomes even more important. We have to train ourselves to look for the reminders. I'm finding that more often than not, they are found in the unexpected, ordinary moments of every day life. Today, if you feel empty, weary, o...

We often become the product of what we prioritize, what we give our time and attention to. So it's important to be intentional about paying attention to Jesus and things that reflect His character in the world. When we do, we become more and more like the person of Jesus Christ, and that is good news for us and for a world in need.

2020-06-1710 minthe remind{h}er podcast09: Walk In Different ShoesIn college, I studied a communication theory called Dual Perspective. Essentially, this theory states that we will be able to more effectively communicate with someone if we are able to see things from their perspective. If we can understand where they're coming from. If we can, as the old adage says, learn what it's like to walk a mile in their shoes. We don't only hold our own perspective; we enter in and do the work to understand someone else's, too. And while my term paper concluded adopting this theory would be beneficial for organizations, I've found it to...

To perhaps move from a posture of putting your head down to just get through it, and instead, lifting your gaze and paying attention. Actress Dorothy Bernard once wrote, "Courage is fear that has said its prayers." And along those same lines, I'd like to offer that maybe hope is despair that's decided to look up.
