Easter’s Here - Let’s Talk About Resurrecting This…

Season 7 · Episode 14

Friday, April 7, 2023 • Duration 02:47

Generosity can be tough when fears of scarcity creep in. Inspired by singer Jewel's perspective on generosity, this episode explores the struggle with sharing what’s closest to us and the deeper faith it requires. Join us as we examine the value of giving, the illusions of control, and the journey to believe that, in life, there’s always enough to go around—even if it means holding our "stuff" a little more loosely.

Sometimes, we blame ourselves when things go wrong, whether in the kitchen or in life. In this episode, we explore how a broken oven became an unexpected teacher, revealing the importance of examining the “systems” around us instead of always blaming ourselves. Join us for a lighthearted look at why sometimes, it’s not you—it’s the oven—and how shifting our perspective can open new doors in life, work, and yes, even cooking!
