Glorious in the Mundane Podcast with Christy Nockels

We live in a world that runs at an unsustainable pace. As a result of this, you and I end up hosting this deep weariness and fatigue in our heart and soul. If we’re not careful, we’ll burn out and miss the beautiful opportunity of bearing witness to God’s goodness, grace and love to those around us and under our care. Today we’ll talk about inviting God to bring His “Kingdom Order” over our lives, our days, and even our to-do lists! When we invite Him in, He really does show up on our behalf....

Today we will remember together the incredible calling and identity that we have as God’s “witnesses” to this broken and hurting world. And it’s more than just about telling people about God, in fact, I don’t know if that was ever really the plan… God‘s presence with us and in us, has always been the plan. And because this is experiential and transformational, we end up bearing witness to the beautiful, personally nuanced, “withness” of God…the One who knows us and loves us …right in the mid...

Today we’re coming around my release of Fly the Nest Song (Carry You) which is a song that has truly helped me mark this moment of our kids “flying the nest.” There’s a lot to hold in this bittersweet season of letting go! We can hold truth or lies, peace or anxiety, freedom or fear. Even if you’re not launching kids into this world, we can all still learn to grow in the letting go of things we want and people we love. And if we have eyes to see it, God is always leading us and invitin...

Okay wow, I bawled through the preparing of this one, y’all! Get ready to hear about a moment of great celebration in our family’s life together. But my prayer is that in the telling of it, you are deeply encouraged today that you have a God who knows you and loves you and CALLS you. That’s right, He is calling you today. Is it to a life of surrender? Yes. But in that surrender is the abundant LIFE He gives! I’ll talk to you soon. Christy Listen "Captivate Us" Listen to 'This is the Ho...

It is wonderful to be back with you this spring as we explore together what life in God looks like, even on our most ordinary days! We’ll ease back into the podcast schedule with two episodes this month, moving into more as April rolls around. Today we’re going to come around what I believe is the most essential, spiritual posture that we can have in this life. Whether you are new to your walk with God or you’ve walked with Him most of your life, having an open heart to Him is i...

Season 9 has been such a joy! Thank you so much for coming alongside me in celebrating my new album “Captivate Us: Live from Keeper’s Branch.” I have so loved sharing the stories and seasons behind these songs and it’s been good for my heart to remember God’s faithfulness, all through the years! Today we will come around the song The Purest Place and what it looks like to actively, even fiercely, guard the purity of our hearts…so that the Kingdom of God might advance in us, and through us! ...

It has been such a joy to spend this spring with you on the podcast, as we’ve come around my new album, “Captivate Us; Live from Keeper’s Branch!” I’ve loved remembering the stories and truths behind these songs! And today, we’ll come around one that Nathan and I wrote as a genuine prayer for our family during an election year! “A Mighty Fortress” has been an anthem for our family in learning to set our eyes on Jesus, especially when the distractions and confusion set in! I hope you’ll ...

In celebration of the full ALBUM RELEASE “Captivate Us” (available tomorrow, everywhere you listen to music!) we are going to come around this tried and true song that still carries so much heart and history in my story! This song is very descriptive of who Jesus is, even describing His face, His eyes, His hands, His loving arms—and though we don’t see Him now in the physical sense—I wonder if it helps prepare us for the day that we will see Him face to face! This song is really a “glorious i...

It has been SO beautiful to get to share these songs (and stories behind the songs!) but most importantly, the truth imbedded in them! Today we are going to look at “For Your Splendor,” a new version of a tried and true song that is deeply personal to me. I’d even venture to say that it’s quintessential when it comes to my sound and heart as a worshiper! It is from Isaiah 61, and we’ll come around the vital posture of being planted in the Lord, and staying deeply connected to Him at our roots...

I have LOVED this spring series so much! God has been reminding me of truth that He set in my heart, so long ago, knowing that I would need that truth to wash over me again, TODAY! We are going to remember together, that God always knows where to find us. Though there’s much temptation to just skip being made in the secret place (especially when we see the world around us charging forward!) God is preparing us, protecting us and will promote us when we wait in trust for Him. We will al...
