| Bonus Episode with Melissa Horvath, author of Embrace Your New | 16 Aug 2025 | 00:23:30 | |
Life takes its toll. The more we experience, the more we may start to see ourselves in light of what’s happened to us instead of what God thinks about us. In fact, we may fear that our damage is irreparable, and it may keep us from drawing closer to Him. In Embrace Your New, Melissa reminds readers of the depth of God’s compassion and the strength of His restorative power. It will refresh your mind and heart with the truth that God makes all things new, especially us!

We want to be done, but God is still doing something here. Whether we like it or not, we must continue to feel the pain we’ve already persevered through this pandemic. What we need is faith — faith not in peace, faith not in tomorrow, faith not in what can be measured or monetized, faith not in health, and faith not in my own understanding. We need faith in Jesus and in Jesus alone. Connect with (in)courage:

May you take time to rest in the knowledge that God loves you beyond question and beyond measure. You are beloved, friend. He loves us enough to send His son to this broken planet to take our place and our punishment, to rewrite our stories, to redeem every single part of us. He loves us enough to follow us to the ends of the earth—and He did. Why? I still don’t quite know. But His love for us, in all its glory, is as undeniable as it is unimaginable.

How astounding that God can use waiting and rejection to prepare us for His calling!

And when what we want equals God’s desire, the difference means everything. Connect with (in)courage:

We can spend our lives grasping for more, attempting to bolt from the crossroads of ordinary and mundane, or we can rest in His grasp, relinquishing ourselves to the peace of the present. We can pursue life to the fullest, or we can live in Him who gives us the fullest life.

He doesn’t need us to perform, pretend, or produce in order to ensure He’ll stick around. In the upside-down kingdom we reside in, weakness is exactly what Jesus wants. Connect with (in)courage:

"I'm not enough, and everyone's going to find out." Have you ever had a similar thought? Joy and Anna have, and today they talk about how to show fully as your whole, entire self. This is how we'll have influence. They talk about David & Goliath, and how we can work with Jesus to defeat imposter syndrome. Also this season, joining us are very special guests Kathi Lipp, Becky Keife, and Grace P. Cho (author of Courageous Influence)! These three friends spent a few days together as they went through the study and -- lucky us -- they recorded their conversations so we can all listen in. Connect with (in)courage:
