Grief Hope Life - A message given at Connection Valley Church 10/9/22
54m · PublishedHave you ever needed to MOVE A MOUNTAIN?
Tragedy came, and left a mountain in your life to overcome?
In this episode, I discuss Grief's mountain to climb, the breath of Hope to provide the strength to face it, with the Life that comes along the journey.
Hope is the bridge from Grief to Life.
Here's to all who have left us a path to follow through the suffering they faced!
Blessings, sojourner.

Friday Five - Thoughts, Thinks, Imaginings
5m · PublishedSometimes we need to reign in our thoughts, and set the mind on higher things.
A friend who has overcome severe addiction told me that it took him a while to ready his mind for what it would take, and that's a great point!
It's not easy, but is much needed.
Sometimes we can help reset our calm with simple things like making the bed, cleaning out clutter — even one drawer, making the right kinds of foods, calling a friend, or taking a bath.
In this episode, I share a short clip from a song that I wrote on a kids' worship project. The song is based on Proverbs 3:5-6. In the bridge, I wanted to use my four-year-old prayer "Bless my thoughts, my thinks, and my imaginings..." so I adapted those words to ones that we can all relate to — young and old alike:
Bless my thoughts, my dreams, my imagination.
Step by step, Your delight, Your Creation.
And yes, renewing the mind is something that we will always seek and practice.
It is vital, for what we think, we become.
So set your mind on higher things this weekend.
Join me Tuesday for the next Wide Open Conversation!
XO!

Thoughts, Thinks, Imaginings
15m · PublishedWhen I was a little girl, I would end each prayer with, "And God, bless my thoughts, my thinks, and my imaginings... and Lord, please give me a puppy."
Today, we hear a lot of teaching around MINDSET.
Let's have a conversation about it!
(Ignore the dog noises in the background — clearly, God has answered that prayer time and time again, and I love dogs!)

You are loved.

Life to Life & Back to Life Again
22m · PublishedIt's Passion Week! [Passion: endurance through suffering]
I LOOOOOOVE everything about Easter week celebrations.
What Jesus so generously gave in order to bring us out of death and into life deserves to be celebrated year round.
In this episode, I share a secret to living with hope and resilience.
It has everything to do with the power of the Cross, and in its shadow-to-resurrected-power, we find Life and Life again.
Have a beautiful week.
Talk to your kids about the Life and Resurrection of Jesus.
Our minds, our longings, and our suffering find reframe, and seeds of purpose will rise.

This is the Back to Life week of all back to life weeks of each year, and I'm excited for next Tuesday!!!
For now, here is a recap of just a couple of great comments J Michael had in our last episode, and some thoughts on HUMILITY.
Humility is a precursor to creativity, to love, to connection, and to life.

A Conversation with My Son, J. Michael, on living active faith
21m · PublishedLast week, I gave away a free ebook of a conversation my late husband wrote, unpacking some encouragement that he received from our son, who - at the time - was ten years old. You can grab that free download at amishroyer.com/dontgiveup.
Today, I am having a talk with J Michael - NOW NINETEEN - touching on the authenticity that the 18-25 year old crowd is seeking when it comes to faith and God, community, and life.
The key is discipleship, and that's really just a fancy word for "walk your life openly with others, and honor Jesus as you seek him with your whole heart."
YOU are a difference maker.
YOU have passions and gifts and talents that can be used to create an environment that builds up the faith of the people around you.
Let's get back to life, live in the wide open, and create connections in our everyday lives.
