  • He Can Handle It
    2025/07/29

    Welcome back To the Table. Today we’re chatting about our conversation with Morgan last week. I don’t know about you, but it always encourages me to hear someone’s story – not just all the beautiful parts, but the hard things too, and see how the Lord has carried them through all of it. He is faithful to never leave us, and so gracious to give us the gift of community to do life with, the good, the bad, and the ugly.

    Hannah’s Hope by Jennifer Saake - https://a.co/d/9pB4zr7

    Job 1:21 - The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.

    2 Timothy 1:7 - for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

    Hebrews 4:15-16 - For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

    John 16:32-33 - Behold, the hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me. 33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”

    Ecclesiastes 1:9 - What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.

    2 Timothy 3:16 - All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

    Isaiah 55:11 - so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty,
    but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.

Whether you have felt physically alone in a season or walked through a difficult situation where you felt figuratively alone, you'll find comfort here.

  • He Calls & Qualifies
    2025/07/15

    Welcome back To the Table. Today we’re talking about expectations, callings, and grace. It’s natural to take on unrealistic expectations – after all, we’ve been setting and meeting expectations since we were children. However, it’s important to focus, to listen to the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and to recognize our own unique callings in life. We need the grace that God provides as we live out our callings, and we need our community to cheer us on, to share truth we us, and to cheer us on. When you’re walking with the Holy Spirit and using your gifts to serve - that’s where the joy is. So, embrace your gifts and cheer on those around you! Don’t forget - If He calls you to it, he’ll qualify you for it ❤️

    Ephesians 3:20 - Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us

    You Have a Calling! feat. John Bevere - https://open.spotify.com/episode/3Kvdivyj4UH6L4OKg7iP6Q?si=dad2c7c7261a4abe

    2 Timothy 1:9 - who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began,

    Ephesians 2:8-10 - For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

  • Lie #3: I’m not capable. I’m not worthy. I’m not seen.
    2025/07/08

    Welcome back To the Table. Here’s lie #3 – and this conversation is a good one. Have you ever felt like you just can’t get it done? You can’t be what everyone needs you to be? Same. If you don’t know it yet, the Lord tends to use the last person we would consider for the job. He delights in using our “mess” to accomplish his perfect plans.

    We were never meant to carry the weight of our burdens/responsibilities/callings/trials alone. Jesus promises that He will never leave us or forsake us. He is also the one who puts us in the place He wants us. He has you in your community for a purpose. He gives us the grace we need to do whatever it is that He’s called us to do. Reread that last sentence again. We pray that you (we) walk in freedom this week, knowing that he who called you is faithful.

  • Honestly? Yes.
    2025/07/01

    Welcome back To the Table. We all have these moments where we wish things were different, we were different. You know the moments when you think “this can’t be happening” or “I can’t handle another thing”. Now these are silly examples, but can you relate? We’re back talking about not being enough (and if you haven’t yet, pause this episode and go back and listen to episode 30Y – trust me.) The point is – we are all weak at times. We all make mistakes. We all struggle with not being enough (fill in the blank) . We are all susceptible to the attacks of the enemy. So, let’s just be honest. Let’s just walk in the freedom that the Lord gives us and know that we can’t do anything without him. Let’s use our shortcomings/weaknesses/struggles/failures - whatever you want to call them - to point people back to THE One. Jesus. Why would we choose to hide in shame anyways? That sounds terrible.

    Jesus promises his power is made perfect in our weakness.

    Galatians 6:2 - Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ

    2 Corinthians 12:9 - But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

  • Lie #2 - I am not enough.
    2025/06/24

    Welcome back To the Table. Have you ever had this sense that maybe you just aren’t cut out for this (whatever it may be)? You get to a certain point in the work, and you think to yourself “this is a mistake”, “I don’t have what it takes to do this well”, or “I can’t keep going”. Well, here’s the truth: you can’t do it alone. Today we’re chatting with our dear friend Paula Harris, as we uncover the lie that the enemy whispers in our ear over and over and over again – you’re not enough. With Jesus, we are fully equipped to do whatever the Lord calls us to. We get to walk in freedom, knowing that we may not have the answers or the plan for how it will happen, but we have a relationship with the creator, who literally made us for the work he calls us to.

  • Restore, Confirm, Strengthen, & Establish
    2025/06/17

    Welcome back To the Table. We’re pausing from our summer series to share a little bit of a “behind the scenes” look at the podcast. Our close friends and family get to see the podcast process in real time, but we thought we would share a little more with you. What was supposed to be a sneak peek into podcasting and what it looks like for us, we ended up chatting about the attacks of the enemy, the importance of encouragement, and a few other rabbit trails sprinkled in there too. To cut to chase: If the Lord has called you to it, he’ll give you exactly what you need to accomplish it. It just may not look, feel, or sound like you thought it would. Whether you find yourself on the mountain top or in a deep valley, there’s something here for you🤍

    Show Notes 🗒️

    Psalm 119:10 - I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.

    Colossians 3:23-24 - Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.

    Galatians 6:9 - And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.

    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 8:44b - ...He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

    Psalm 55:22 - Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved.

    1 Peter 5:7-10 - casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.

  • Saying "No" & Letting Go
    2025/06/10

    Welcome back To the Table. Jenna & I are back to continue the conversation from last week. If you’re triggered by the title, so sorry 🙃 Saying “no” can be so tricky. We like to hold onto the control that “yes” gives us. But, if you’re anything like me, you know how hard it is to do something that you should have said “no” to. It’s weighty, burdensome, and exhausting. If the Lord has called you to it, he’ll give you exactly what you need to accomplish it. We can walk in freedom because the Holy Spirit lives within us, equipping us “with everything good that [we] may do his will” (Heb. 13:21).

    Show Notes 🗒️

    2 Timothy 1:7 - for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

    1 Corinthians 12:4-6,11 - Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone...All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.

    Romans 12:4-6a - For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them...

    Matthew 6:33 - But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
