I'm SOO Tired 🥱 // Q&A With Beth And Steph The Gathering Place, A Podcast From Blessed Is She podcast

29:59

Jesus calls us to follow Him—not just in the moments that are easy or comfortable, but wherever He leads. This week, we’re reflecting on what it means to truly remain with Jesus, to walk beside Him through both the joys and the challenges of life. How can we trust Him enough to follow wherever He goes, knowing He is always with us? What does it mean to you to "remain with Jesus"? How do you stay close to Him in your day-to-day life? What role does prayer, accountability, or friendship play in helping us remain faithful to His call? As we gather this week, let’s reflect on the deeper invitation of following Jesus—not just when it's convenient, but always. Let’s encourage each other to remain close to Him and to trust Him with every step, knowing He will never leave us. Let’s chat about what it means to walk with Jesus, wherever He leads.…

Lent is a season of growth, but it’s not about rushing or overwhelming ourselves. It’s about slowing down, being intentional, and allowing God to transform us at a steady pace. In a world that constantly urges us to move faster, Lent invites us to cultivate peace in our hearts, trusting that spiritual growth comes through patience and persistence. Let's chat about the need to Slow Down During Lent, how to recognize Peace in the Midst of Daily Life, and of course practicing patience and trust in God's timing. What are some practical Ways to live Slow and Steady? How can we rely on God’s grace to strengthen our hearts and minds, especially when we feel like we’re not moving fast enough? As we reflect on how we can cultivate a peaceful, steady heart during Lent, we invite you to share your thoughts and experiences!! What are some small steps you’re taking to embrace the slow and steady rhythm of grace this season?…

In our busy, always-connected lives, it can be hard to find moments of true silence—yet it’s in silence that we can hear God’s voice and deepen our relationship with Him. Join us for this Q&A as we discuss the power of silence in our spiritual lives, practical ways to turn down the volume (bye-bye apps?), the gift of solitude - and we get it, sometimes it feels more like a curse than a gift! We will also look into breaking free from distractions and dare we say it, living out silence as a family (or with our loved ones). As always, we want to hear your thoughts and experiences of embracing the stillness. How can we “turn down the volume” in our lives this Lent to hear God more clearly and grow deeper in faith?…
