What it Means to Live in the "Not Yet"
|
Hello Reader, If you’ve ever thought, “Why can’t I just be over this?” this one is for you. This episode of the StableMinded Podcast is a real-time, from-the-heart conversation about the roller coaster of emotions that come when we experience the limits of our humanity, the challenges of grief and loss, and what it means to hold the hope of eternity in mind. We talk about:
Sometimes what we are craving is actually a longing for heaven-on-earth.
When we step back and see our current situation from that vantage point, we're better set up to embrace our limits, release others from unrealistic expectations, process the loss and grief that comes both in life and death, and shift our perspective towards remembering that this life is temporary. This is our journey from Eden to Eternity, where longing for beauty, perfection, and redemption beckons us onward. Even so, we live in the not yet. So if you’re walking through loss, disappointment, estrangement, or a relationship that will not become what you hoped, lean in and be encouraged. And be ready to jot down the journal questions near the end to help you name what you need, release what you cannot control, and ask God for the grace to live your “new normal.” Join me in becoming StableMinded and living life with purpose by tuning into this episode for insight and encouragement! Still becoming, Founder of StableMinded.us P.S.

Hello Reader, There’s a quiet belief many of us carry: “I’ll deal with it later.” Later, when life slows down. Later, when it hurts less. Later, when we have more capacity. But pain that gets postponed doesn’t disappear. It gets stored.

Hello Reader, Are you ready to embrace a new season of spiritual, emotional, and relational growth? If so, then I have something I believe will meet you right where you are! I'm so excited to share with you that the Evergreen "Retreat-in-a-Box" and Bible Study is here! I am humbled and grateful for the ease with which the Lord birthed this message during a season of deep pruning and learning to abide (still in progress, by the way). This is the bittersweetness of living between Eden and...
Hello Reader, In this episode of the StableMinded Podcast, we continue to explore what it looks like to give ourselves “permission to change.” By looking intentionally at our spiritual, emotional, and relational health through a framework drawn from Erikson's developmental model, side-by-side with the stages of spiritual maturity, we can gain insight into how our developmental wounds and attachment patterns shape the way we relate to God and others. These patterns and coping strategies often...
