May 14, 2023 - 28 min
I've always thought of Motherhood as the most rewarding - but also the very toughest job. Today I talk with Tammy Whitehurst about being a Mom. Tammy says from "diapers to dates to depends" is a short journey so savor every moment of Motherhood. Even though no parent is perfect - our perfect Heavenly Father helps us as we lean on Him for strength and help. Of course, humor, dry shampoo, and caffeine can help in all stages of Motherhood.

Eight Blessings : Protect Your Heart, Be Honest with God
April 27, 2023 - 28 min
In this broken world darkness and heartbreak abound. One of the many blessings that Jesus promises His followers is that the pure in heart will see Him. Keeping our hearts pure and protected is not a job for the faint of heart. But it is something we can all do by fixing our eyes on Him and staying in HIs Word daily. How are you protecting your heart? Are you quick to forgive and slow to become angry? In the challenges of everyday life are you taking a break to ask the Holy Spirit to search your heart and help you grow in faith. I've found that taking a faith break (even if it's short) to pray and ask God to show me my blind spots is very helpful. Sometimes it's a conflict with a friend that causes me grief. Other times it's resentment - but whatever "it" is He will help us identify it - repent - make it right with the other person (if that is feasible). As we let go of the hurts and distractions are hearts become pure - and the blessing for that is that we will see Him. Take a moment right now to think about seeing Him. Jesus - the son of God - interceding for you right now. The one who loves you so dearly He laid down His life for you. You are chosen and valued. He wants your heart protected so that you can fulfill your purpose and become all He intended for you. Please join me weekly and together we will find Hope for the Journey.   Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
Eight Blessings: Dare to Follow Christ
April 18, 2023 - 28 min
Most of us are familiar with popular speakers drawing larges crowds. After, all we've all seen auditoriums filled to capacity. But in Jesus day drawing large crowds wasn't easy. Yet for the Sermon on the Mount multitudes walked for days in the heat and through the sand just to listen. The Sermon on the Mount was radical and promised a new way of life and blessing to everyone that dared to follow. Join me today friends as we open the conversation on the blessings that come our way when we follow Christ regardless of the cost.       Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
