  34 – Good for Them! Finding Contentment in a Comparison World

  Aug 12, 202623 minS1

  What does it actually mean to be content, especially when social media is constantly showing us what everyone else has? This week we're talking about contentment, comparison, and learning to genuinely celebrate the good things happening in other people's lives without letting them make us question our own. We talk about the difference between contentment and settling, why ambition and gratitude can exist at the same time, and the practical things that help us when we find ourselves stuck in a cycle of wanting more. We also get into protecting your energy, practicing gratitude, asking God to change your heart, and remembering that the next purchase, renovation, or vacation probably isn't going to be the thing that finally makes you content. And because this is 27 Good, we also somehow find time for Vacation Amy, airport people-watching, an impressive amount of in-flight television, Michael Jackson, Hilary Duff, and Patty's 14-book summer. At the heart of it all is a simple reminder from Psalm 23: The Lord is our shepherd. We lack nothing. So often the things making us feel discontent aren't needs at all. They're wants. And maybe contentment starts with recognizing just how much good is already right in front of us. Scriptures referenced: Philippians 4:11–13 : Paul on learning to be content in every circumstance Psalm 23:1 : "The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing."

  32 – Summer Recap & Back-to-School Hot Takes

  Aug 5, 202625 minS1

  Before we dive into back-to-school season, we're catching up on summer adventures, from Amy's trip to California and Patty's day with the kids to new Shop-Vacs, football practice, and the reality that vacationing with your spouse is a great reminder that opposites really do attract. Then we jump into our back-to-school hot takes! From school lunches and supply lists to first-day photos, kindergarten jitters, ParentSquare, and the pressure social media can put on parents, we're sharing the things we think are overrated, underrated, and worth remembering as a new school year begins. As a teacher and a first-time kindergarten mom, we each bring a different perspective to the conversation. Whether you're sending your first kindergartner or your last high schooler, we hope this episode reminds you to take a deep breath, trust the process, and let go of the pressure to make everything perfect. Scripture referenced: Philippians 4:6 – Don't be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

  31 – Saving, Spending, and Finding Contentment: Part 2

  Jul 22, 202621 minS1

  In Part 2 of our money conversation, we're talking about the practical side of biblical stewardship. We dive into different money personalities, why understanding your own tendencies can strengthen your relationships, and how budgeting, saving, and spending all have a place when they're done with wisdom and intention. We also discuss the Parable of the Talents, why money tends to magnify what's already in our hearts, and how stewardship is ultimately about faithfully managing what God has entrusted to us. We wrap up with one of our favorite reminders: contentment doesn't come from spending more. Some of life's sweetest moments are simple, inexpensive, and often right in front of us. From library books and backyard fun to creative date nights at home, we're reminded that joy isn't something we buy. It's something we choose to cultivate. Scriptures Mentioned Proverbs 21:20 Luke 16:10 Matthew 25:14–30 Proverbs 3:9–10

  30 – Let's Talk About Money (Without Making It Weird): Part 1

  Jul 15, 202625 minS1

  Money can be one of the hardest topics to talk about, but it's also one of the topics the Bible speaks about most. In Part 1, we're sharing our own money stories, from student loans and first jobs to debt, budgeting, and learning financial lessons the hard way. We talk about how Dave Ramsey first introduced us to biblical stewardship, why debt can quietly steal your freedom, and how our view of money has changed over the years. We also discuss generosity, tithing, living with open hands instead of closed fists, and why we believe money is ultimately a tool to provide for our families, bless others, and further God's Kingdom. Whether you're thriving financially or simply trying to make it through a tight season, we hope this conversation reminds you that peace isn't found in your bank account. It's found in trusting God as the One who provides. Scriptures Mentioned Proverbs 22:7 Matthew 6:24 1 Timothy 6:10 Acts 20:35 2 Corinthians 9:6–8 Malachi 3:10 Matthew 19:24

  29 - Looking for a Sign? Lessons from Gideon's Fleece

  Jul 8, 202626 minS1

  Have you ever wished God would just make the next step obvious? This week we're catching up on summer life, from basketball hoops falling on cars, magazine subscriptions, and our favorite summer salads, to a conversation that challenged both of us: How do we know when God is leading us? Using the story of Gideon in Judges 6-8, we talk about Gideon's famous fleece, why God patiently met him in his fear, and what it looks like to seek wisdom instead of certainty. We also explore why God reduced Gideon's army from 32,000 men to just 300, what that teaches us about trusting Him instead of our own strength, and how our greatest sphere of influence may simply be the people God has already placed in front of us. Whether you're waiting on a big decision, praying for direction, or simply trying to be faithful in your everyday life, we hope this conversation encourages you to trust that God is already at work, even when you can't see the whole picture. 💚 Scriptures Mentioned Judges 6–8: Gideon and the fleece James 1:2–4: Consider it pure joy when you face trials Reference to Israel's wilderness journey and God's faithfulness Discussion of the Holy Spirit and how believers today have guidance Gideon didn't yet have
