Riddle me this: Why is it often easier to spot the gaps in our lives than the growth? The unfinished places. The weak spots. The things we wish we knew, handled better, or had figured out by now.
Let’s chat about that. We’re heading to Nehemiah 4 and discovering the hope tucked inside one small but powerful phrase: “the gaps were being closed.”
Together, we’ll talk about parenting, fear, discouragement, growth, and the God who faithfully finishes what He starts. Because while gaps may feel vulnerable and exposed, they’re also the very places where the Gap-Filler goes to work. Join me for Episode 124.

Here’s a small excerpt:"And when we stare at our gaps long enough, or rather, our gaps stare back at us- we can easily feel the crushing weight of discouragement, despair, and well, not-enoughness."

For this special episode of Glordinary, I’m sharing something deeply personal: a graduation letter written to our daughter, Sophia.
But somewhere along the way, I realized these words weren’t just for her. They’re the reminders all of us need when life changes, when the future feels uncertain, and when we wonder if we’re truly ready for what’s next.
This episode is about the things that matter most: God’s faithfulness, His presence, His Truth, and the steady hope that He fills every gap we fear we’ve missed. Whether you’re celebrating, grieving, releasing, parenting, beginning again, or simply trying to keep walking forward—this one’s for you.

What if the “hmm…” moments in your life aren’t random at all?
In this special guest interview wrapping up our Say What? series, I sit down with my dear friend, Alicia Takens, for a rich and honest conversation about learning to recognize the sacred thread God is weaving through our stories. Together, we talk about what it looks like to pause long enough to ponder, notice where God is showing up in the ordinary, and trust that He’s still authoring every chapter—even the confusing ones.
If you’ve been wondering where God is in your own story lately, this conversation might help you slow down long enough to notice Him again.www.glordinary.com
Here’s a small excerpt:"Because each one sharpened the picture of God at His work in her life, in the life of her child. And as she pondered these, she could trace the sacred thread through the story of her life and the unfolding plan in her son’s."

Not everything in life comes with a clear yes or no. Some moments just sit with us—unfinished, unclear, a little confusing.
Grab your coffee, and let’s talk about those quiet, in-between spaces. And hey, we might even learn a thing or two from Mary, who “pondered” what God was doing, even when she didn’t fully understand it.
What if instead of rushing past those moments, we actually paid attention? Listen in to the final chat in our series- Say What?www.glordinary.com
Here’s a small excerpt:"We live in a loud world. Busy schedules. Balls constantly in motion, right? And in the middle of all the volume, we can miss the “Holy Hmm…” We can miss the pondering."

Ever find yourself stuck in the “maybe”? Not a clear yes. Not a firm no. Just…back and forth.
In this week’s episode of Glordinary, we’re talking about that in-between space—the overthinking, the second-guessing, and the fear of getting it wrong that keeps us stuck longer than we’d like to admit.
From a not-so-simple timeshare “maybe” to a powerful picture in Scripture, we’ll look at what indecision does to us… and how God gently leads us out of the turbulence and into still waters.
If you’ve been circling a decision, this one’s for you. Listen in to the third chat in our series- Say What?

Here’s a small excerpt:"They keep us stuck. Not because we’re lazy. Not because we don’t care. Maybe keeps us stuck because honestly, we’re afraid."

Some episodes feel light. This one doesn’t, sadly.
This week, I’m stepping into the raw reality of grief after the sudden loss of a close friend’s mother—someone who felt like family to me. The kind of loss that stops you in your tracks and makes you whisper, “Everything about this feels wrong.”
Because it does. Because it is.
In this episode, I’m holding onto one steady Truth for the moments when even the next breath feels hard:
The Lord is the one who keeps me going.
If you’re carrying grief or walking through loss, this one’s for you. And even if you’re not, listen in to Episode #119 for how you might walk alongside someone else in the valley.

Here’s a small excerpt:"As I sat with my friend, grieving with her, grieving for her, I kept replaying that comment in my heart. “Lord, everything about this feels wrong.” And then it hit me. It feels wrong because it *is* wrong."

What are you saying yes to?
Because let’s real-talk for a sec—some of our yeses come from guilt, pressure, or a well-timed “Can you just…?” And those yeses? They can be ouchy.
In this episode, we continue the Say What? series by heading to Exodus 35 and asking a better question: how do we decide what deserves our yes?
Instead of overthinking it—or burning out trying to do everything—we’re working through a simple grid:What do I have? What am I willing to give? What am I good at?
www.glordinary.com
Here’s a small excerpt:"Because some of us start strong with a huge yes, only to fizzle out because it’s not sustainable. Our yes quickly becomes a no-show. Others get stuck before they start, courtesy of perfectionism, overthinking, or maybe fear. But maybe Exodus 35 offers us a grid to say yes and sustain the yes."

We all love a good shortcut. Faster. Easier. Cleaner. Yes, please. But what happens when shortcuts aren’t actually shorter?
In this episode, we meet Naaman. He needed a miracle, but not like this! And his first response? No.
And honestly? Same. Sometimes the very thing we’re saying no to is the place where God wants to meet us most. (I know. I don’t love that either!)
Because while it’s true that God knows how to speak to us in a way we know how to hear, the real question is: what are we saying back?
Grab your coffee for the kickoff episode of our new series- Say What?
www.glordinary.com
Here’s a small excerpt:"Naaman wanted the easy button, the quick fix. He wanted Elisha to just wave his hand over the spot and cure him, to shortcut this. Me too, Naaman. But some things aren’t meant to be short-cutted."

Spring is here, and so is a fresh conversation. In this short teaser, I'll introduce the new Say What? series—exploring not just how God speaks to us, but how we respond. Because if He knows how to speak to us, the real question becomes: what are we saying back?

We love Sunday—the empty tomb, the victory, the resurrection.
But many times, life doesn’t feel like Sunday. It feels like Saturday.
In this episode, we walk through the “itinerary” of Easter week and pause in the space we often rush past—Saturday. The in-between. The waiting. The questions. The quiet. The liminal space.
Because even in the silence, God is still at work. If you find yourself in a Saturday season, this is your reminder: it’s not the end of the story. Sunday is coming.

Here’s a small excerpt:"But I don’t think you have to imagine. I think you know this place. Different details. But you know this space of asking, “Where You at, God? Are You gonna show up?"
