Dr. Edward Sri, “There are times we face trials that have no human solution. No amount of money, planning, counseling, or networking can solve it all. No friend, spiritual director, or person of influence can be our savior. The only thing we can do is to turn to the Lord like the psalmist did, clinging to God in pure faith, trusting that he will help us through this ordeal.”
Saint Francis de Sales, “To make good progress, we must devote ourselves to getting over that portion of the path which lies close before us, and not amuse ourselves with the desire to attain the last step before we have accomplished the first.”

Monday Mar 18, 2024
Join us for Episode 12 in our seven-week series, The Psalms of Ascent: A Lenten Pilgrimage.

He has a word of comfort for you.

And bless the Lord.
May the Lord bless you from Zion,
He who made heaven and earth.

Join us for Episode 11 in our seven-week series, The Psalms of Ascent: A Lenten Pilgrimage. The word translated “ascent” means “to go up.” It gives an idea of being on a journey, moving to a higher place spiritually. In this week's episode, Lisa and Laura dive into Psalm 133, and speak openly and honestly about Christian community and family unity, and why on earth it is so hard.

He is waiting to transform your heart.
Open your Heart to our key Scripture.
Psalm 133:1–3. The Blessedness of Unity.
Behold, how good and pleasant it is
when brothers dwell in unity!
It is like the precious oil upon the head, running down upon the beard,
upon the beard of Aaron, running down on the collar of his robes!
It is like the dew of Hermon,
which falls on the mountains of Zion!
For there the Lord has commanded the blessing,
life for evermore.

But there is forgiveness with you,
That you may be feared.
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
And in his word I hope;
My soul waits for the Lord
More than watchmen for the morning,
More than watchmen for the morning.

And with him is plenteous redemption.
And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Join Lisa and Laura as they set our hearts on pilgrimage, unpacking today’s Psalm and applying it to our daily lives.
Open your Heart to our key Scripture.
Psalm 124:1-8: Thanksgiving For Israel’s Deliverance. A Song of Ascents.
If it had not been the Lord who was on our side,
let Israel now say—
If it had not been the Lord who was on our side,
when men rose up against us,
then they would have swallowed us up alive,
when their anger was kindled against us;
then the flood would have swept us away,
the torrent would have gone over us;
then over us would have gone the raging waters.
Blessed be the Lord,
who has not given us as prey to their teeth!
We have escaped as a bird
from the snare of the fowlers;
the snare is broken,
and we have escaped!
Our help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode.
1 John 4:4: He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
Romans 5:3-5: We rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit which has been given to us.
Invite Him in with this episode’s questions for reflection.
Where can you take a mini-pilgrimage this week? A half-hour pilgrimage to somewhere quiet?

When has God come through for you in the past?

Episode 7: He Prunes and Heals
Monday Feb 12, 2024
Monday Feb 12, 2024
Join us for our final episode in our seven-week series, Encountering Jesus Personally. In this week's episode, Lisa and Laura dive into the Gospel of John, focusing on the famous I AM statement, “I am the true vine.” Each time we find Jesus saying, “I am,” He is giving us a glimpse into what He’s like. He’s revealing something about His character. Do you want to attach yourself to Jesus, but struggle with self-reliance? Do you long for Him to heal your wounds, but only under the condition that it won’t hurt? Oh, sister, have we got a show for you! Grab your coffee, open your Bible, and join Lisa and Laura as they unpack today’s Scripture and apply it to our daily lives.
Open your Heart to our key Scripture.
John 15:1: I am the true vine.
Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode.
John 15:1-5: I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch of mine that bears no fruit, he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already made clean by the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
Psalm 80:8-19: Thou didst bring a vine out of Egypt; thou didst drive out the nations and plant it. Thou didst clear the ground for it; it took deep root and filled the land. The mountains were covered with its shade, the mighty cedars with its branches; it sent out its branches to the sea, and its shoots to the River. Why then hast thou broken down its walls, so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit? The boar from the forest ravages it, and all that move in the field feed on it.
Turn again, O God of hosts! Look down from heaven, and see; have regard for this vine, the stock which thy right hand planted. They have burned it with fire, they have cut it down; may they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance! But let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, the son of man whom thou hast made strong for thyself! Then we will never turn back from thee; give us life, and we will call on thy name!
Restore us, O Lord God of hosts! Let thy face shine, that we may be saved!
Isaiah 5:1-2: Let me sing for my beloved a love song concerning his vineyard: My beloved had a vineyard on a very fertile hill. He digged it and cleared it of stones, and planted it with choice vines; he built a watchtower in the midst of it, and hewed out a wine vat in it; and he looked for it to yield grapes, but it yielded wild grapes.
Jeremiah 2:21: I planted you in the land like a special vine of the very best stock. Why in the world have you turned into something like a wild vine that produces rotten, foul-smelling grapes? (NET)
Ephesians 4:1: Lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called.
Hebrews 4:12-13: For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, or joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And before him, no creature is hidden, but all are open and laid bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Hebrews 4:14-16: Since then have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we have not 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 sinning. 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 15:3: You are already made clean by the word which I have spoken to you.
Ephesians 5:26: That He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word.
1 Peter 5:10: 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, establish, and strengthen you.
Invite Him in with this episode’s questions for reflection.
Have you experienced God’s Word moving in your life, revealing motives, thoughts, and hurts? How have you responded?
What difference would it make if you truly believed the words of Saint Julian of Norwich: “When God sees sin, He sees pain in us”?

Open your Heart to our key Scripture.
John 14:6: I am the way, and the truth, and the life.
Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode.
John 14:1-6: “Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way where I am going.” Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way?” Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me.”
Deuteronomy 5:32: You shall walk in all the way which the Lord your God has commanded you. (ESV)
Isaiah 30:21: Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.
Isaiah 35:8: The prophet says, “a highway shall be there, and it shall be called the Holy Way, the unclean shall not pass over it.”
Jeremiah 6:16: Thus says the Lord, “Stand by the roads, and look, and ask the ancient paths where the good way is, and walk in it, and find rest for your souls.”
John 13:15: For I have given you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you.

Hebrews 1:3: (Jesus) is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature. (ESV)
Luke 15:19-20: “I am no longer worthy to be called your son; treat me as one of your hired servants.” And he arose and came to his father. But while he was yet at a distance, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.
Isaiah 43:1: Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name: you are mine.

Jesus is the life: What am I hoping for?

John Bartunek, The Better Part: A Christ-Centered Resource for Personal Prayer
“From ancient times philosophers have summed up the human condition as a quest to answer three fundamental queries: What should I do? What can I know? What can I hope for? Jesus Christ answers them all, not merely with doctrine, but with his very person.
‘I am the way’ can translate into: What should you do? Follow me! Do what I have done.
‘I am the truth’ means: What can you know? You can know everything, if only you know me. Knowing me, you know the truth; you know the secret behind the workings of the whole universe and the yearnings of the human heart.
‘I am the life’ means: What can you hope for? In me, through me, you can hope for and expect the fullness of life that you long for, even though you may not be able to put that longing into words.
“Christ is truly the living water that quenches every thirst. He is truly the light that scatters every kind of darkness. The quest of every man and woman to satisfy the heart’s deepest needs is the quest to seek his face, and it leads either to Christ and the place he has prepared for us in heaven or to a dead end.” (John Bartunek, The Better Part: A Christ-Centered Resource for Personal Prayer. Hamden, CT: Circle Press, 2007, 936.)
“Unfortunately, sin has obscured our capacity to know and follow the light of truth, and indeed, as the Apostle Paul realized, it has exchanged ‘the truth about God for a lie,’ (Romans 1:25). By the Incarnation, the Word of God came to bring full light to man. In this regard, the Second Vatican Council says that it is ‘only in the mystery of the Word made flesh that the mystery of man truly becomes clear.’” (Saint John Paul II, Christ Reveals Man to Himself)
