From Today’s Episode

In today’s episode, we talk about the Vine, the Branch, and your joy.
If you've ever felt like joy is something you have to work up or fake your way into, this one's for you. We're talking about what Jesus really meant when He said He wants your joy to be full, and why joy grows out of staying close to Him instead of trying harder. This is faith-based reflection for anyone who's tired and just wants to receive a little good news today. 
Our Good God talks with us and we're created for life with Him, so let's experience more of it!

Verse
John 15

Question
God, what's something I have misunderstood about joy, and what do you offer me instead?

From Today’s Episode

In today’s episode, we talk about the reliable compassion of God. 
When life feels heavy and you've been leaning on your own strength for too long, it can be hard to believe God still has grace for you. In this episode, Jen opens up Isaiah 30 to show that God's compassion isn't fickle — it doesn't ebb and flow based on how well you're doing. If you're wondering how to hear from God in the middle of a hard season, this one's a good place to start. 
Our Good God talks with us and we're created for life with Him, so let's experience more of it!

Verse
Isaiah 30:15, 16 & 18
"Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you. Therefore, he will rise up to show you compassion." (v 18)

Question
God, what do you want me to know about your compassion for me?

From Today’s Episode

In today’s episode, we talk about when eternal life actually begins.
For years, I thought eternal life was something I'd experience someday in heaven—but Jesus says it's knowing God right now, in the middle of ordinary life. If you've been waiting to truly experience God until things slow down or you get it all together, this episode offers Christian encouragement to start living in that reality today. He's inviting you into something beautiful that's already available.
Our Good God talks with us and we're created for life with Him, so let's experience more of it!

Verse
John 10:10
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly."

 John 17:1-3
"When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, 'Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you,  since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him. "And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.'"

Question
God, how are you inviting me to participate more in eternal life with you today? And how can I notice you more in ordinary moments?
