For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved?

.... but I'm too busy! How many times have we found ourselves using our business as an excuse for why we can't do things? When you're greeted by a friend and asked how you're doing, is your answer along the lines of "I'm good, just busy.." ? You're not alone, friend. Being busy seems like a norm or standard for feeling productive. But at what expense? We want to take a sec from our busy lives to chat with you and invite you to *rest* How do you handle feeling overwhelmingly busy?

Cultivating a Peaceful Heart this Lent // Q&A with Jenna + Steph 30:42

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?…

Turning down the volume this Lent // Q&A with Beth + Steph 29:44

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?…
