  By: Donna Bucher This is the second in a two-part series on holy renewal through listening, if you haven’t read the first part you can do that HERE. After moving slowly through holy renewal listening to the rhythms of the first three days of the Holy Week narrative, we pick up Day 4: The Rhythm of Teaching, Conspiracy and Betrayal During what we deem as Holy Week, Jesus spent time visiting his closest friends, Lazarus, Mary, and Martha, but He also spent time teaching. As per His custom He taught the people, most notably, He gave His Olivet discourse on the end times (Luke 21:5-36 ..read more

Quiet Time Envy
Woman to Woman

2d ago
By: Jenifer Metzger Instead, his delight is in the Lord’s instruction, and he meditates on it day and night. Psalm 1:2 CSB We've all seen it. You're scrolling through Instagram and you come across the perfect quiet time picture. Someone who has a candle glowing, a mug of coffee steaming, the perfect Bible highlights, detailed journal notes, all on a clean table with the morning sun shining through the window. It's lovely. Then we think back to our last quiet time and suddenly, envy kicks in. Our quiet time didn't have a candle. Our mug of coffee had gone cold. Our highlighted lines weren't st ..read more

Talent: The Gift We Give Back to God
Woman to Woman
by Joanne Viola
4d ago
 By: Joanne Viola   “Talent” has been defined as “a special natural ability or aptitude” (dictionary.com). We have each been entrusted with a talent, or two. Some have several talents, some have one. Some talents are visible to many, and some are hidden only to be seen by God. “For it is just like a man about to go on a journey, who called his own slaves and entrusted his possessions to them. To one he gave five talents, to another, two, and to another, one, each according to his own ability; and he went on his journey.” (Matthew 25:14-15, NASB) In the parable as told by Jesus, each ..read more

Emotions: Dashboard Indicators
Woman to Woman
by Lauren Traci Thomas
1w ago
 By: Lauren Thomas We often think of emotions in terms of good and bad. Good, meaning ones we like or ones that feel good. Bad, meaning ones that do not feel pleasant. Sometimes we even designate our emotions as morally right or wrong. But what if we started thinking of them differently?    Paul in Ephesians says, “in your anger, do not sin.” This tells me that anger in and of itself is not evil. It’s what we do with anger that can make it good or evil.    26 Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and give no oppo ..read more

Holy Renewal Through Listening Part 1
Woman to Woman
by Donna Bucher
1w ago
  By: Donna Bucher Over time, seeking holy renewal through rhythms of listening to the Holy Week narrative became a blessed ritual I eagerly anticipated. Enjoying intensified times of prayer, reflection and occasional fasting allows me consecrated time for embracing holy renewal through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Holy Week then becomes a “setting apart” of cluttered, overburdened schedules to instead pursue deeper rhythms of spiritual renewal. Using the events of Christ’s last week on earth prior to His death, we move through the hidden lessons of holy renew ..read more
