MESSmerized - Funny and faith based encouragement in marriage , family , Christian parenting , and finding purposeEpisode 30 Advent Peace with Kay WymaWe’re closing in on 12 days until Christmas, and I’m guessing the whole idea of “peace” feels illusive at this point? Or maybe that’s just me. 😂😂😂 Today my dear friend Kay Wyma is joining us on our Advent journey to discuss peace. How does Christmas bring us reminders of peace, especially in a world filled with discord and stress? (Hint: Peace isn’t the absence of conflict, but replacing it with something deeper and more significant.) I especially appreciate Kay’s challenge to identify the root causes of our unrest, worries, or confl...2023-12-1332 minMESSmerized - Funny and faith based encouragement in marriage , family , Christian parenting , and finding purposeEpisode 12 Competition, comparison, and back-to-school considerations with Kay WymaWe’re down on all fours and crawling towards the finish line of summer over here.

My fairly unscientific poll indicates that 9 out of 10 of us raised our hands. (And I’m guessing the rest of you thought the question was rhetorical. 😂) If you’re anything like me, it’s easy to be overwhelmed by finances, family issues, parenting, and everything in between. The stress and anxiety that comes with being overwhelmed is not how God intended for us (or our kids) to live. My sweet friend Kay Wyma joins us today with re...2023-03-2022 min

Praying purity definitely means we’re praying for our kids to pursue it in their dating relationships, internet searches, music choices, clothes, and pure groups. However, we also know that purity is rooted in our identity, and when we know our worth it makes purity less about checking a box and more about trusting our Savior. I love how Kay reminds us that through the blood of Christ we are all clothed in righteousness, and that...2022-05-0220 min
