A Prayer for Christmas 15:25

12M ago15:25

15:25

Merry Christmas, friends. Today, we celebrate Jesus embracing humanity—knit together in his mother’s womb, coming into this world as a newborn, and being swaddled and held close to his mother.

A Prayer for Unmet Expectations 13:42

1y ago13:42

13:42

This time of year is often loaded with expectations. Many of us feel we need to come up with unique holiday cards, find the perfect Christmas gifts, make sure our homes look social-media worthy. These expectations can rob us of the joy and magic of the season. Join us in a prayer asking God to help us lay down these expectations, seeing the good th…

A Prayer for Parenting in an Overwhelming World 12:41

A Prayer for When Praying is Hard 12:50

1y ago12:50

12:50

Sometimes, praying feels hard to reach for. Maybe this is where you find yourself today or a feeling you often have.

A Prayer for Raising Peacemakers 13:28

1y ago13:28

13:28

We are not immune to the chaos that swirls around us. It’s too tempting to want to stick our heads in the sand, to try to ignore the violence and conflict in the world, or to not do or say anything in order to “keep the peace.” Yet keeping the peace is not the same as being peacemakers: pursuing justice, healing, and wholeness. Join us as we come b…

A Prayer for Choosing Welcome 19:34

1y ago19:34

19:34

Throughout scripture, we see that God deeply cares about welcoming the stranger, the refugee, and the foreigner. Yet how do we extend that welcome to the neighbors around us, amidst the busyness of parenting and the weight of distressing headlines? This week’s prayer was written by Laura Hornby, a community liaison for We Welcome, a Christian group…

A Prayer for Holy Curiosity 18:42

1y ago18:42

A Prayer for Struggling with Control 18:14

1+ y ago18:14

18:14

One of the scariest truths about parenting is that so much is out of our control. As the new school year rolls along and our children experience invitations to independence, we’re reminded that we can’t always be there. In this episode, we’re praying to remember God’s trustworthiness and love—and how we might empower our children to experience all …

A Prayer for When We’re Distracted 15:39

1+ y ago15:39

15:39

When we practice pausing and holding still, do we also practice noticing?

A Prayer for the Memories We Hold 14:01

1+ y ago14:01

14:01

There are countless moments we long to hold onto so that we remember them—your child waving bye to you as they step into their first day of school, watching them open presents on Christmas morning, a sweet smile stretching across their face one afternoon.

A Prayer for Passing on Our Faith 18:19

A Prayer for Our Neighborhoods 18:31

1+ y ago18:31

18:31

What does it mean for our families to love our neighbors? It doesn’t need to be grand gestures aimed at solving the world’s most complex issues. Loving our neighbors can simply look like showing up in the world—ordering extra pizza to share with others, hosting a game of pickup basketball in your front yard, learning the names of those who live on …

1
A Prayer for Divine Interruptions 16:11

1+ y ago16:11

16:11

What if we reframed the interruptions we as parents experience? This week, we pause to consider how interruptions may be times when God is speaking to us.

A Prayer for Work & Rest 16:39

1+ y ago16:39

16:39

Work and rest can feel at odds with each other, especially when we consider work through the lens of productivity and rest through the lens of retreat.

A Prayer for Weary Hearts & Spring Cleaning 12:32

1+ y ago12:32

12:32

It’s so easy to let “doing good” obscure our hearts, especially when it comes to trying to take care of children. While we so want to do what it takes to raise our children well, we also want for it to flow out of a clean heart. Let’s pray together, asking God to renew and refresh our hearts and those of our children, so we may enter into rhythms o…

A Prayer for Resurrection & Renewal 15:17

1+ y ago15:17

15:17

One of the most profound things we can learn from our children is embracing audacious imagination and unbridled joy.

Pray with us this week that we woul…

A Prayer for Good Friday 15:04

1+ y ago15:04

15:04

What would it look like for us to invite God into the suffering we’re holding? What if we were honest about our pain instead of silver lining it?
