If you just pay attention to small occurrences and people in your life, you'll see how God is showing up. We had dear friend, father, speaker, and best-selling author, Jonathan Pitts, back on the Rhythms for Life podcast for Season 3!

This is a year where it's safe to assume we are all in need of deep rest. Not the kind of rest you get from kicking back and watching your favorite TV show, but actual soul rest. This week, Curtis Zackery "CZ", joins the Rhythms for Life podcast for a conversation on how to achieve that kind of rest we are all craving this season. We live in a society that demands overcommitments and attempts to stretch individuals as far as they can. What kind of rest is it that God wants us to experience? Why is it so important? Gabe and Rebekah hope the tools that CZ equips us with in this conversation allow you the opportunity to make some real changes to your routine as we strive to end this year well.

CZ's goal is to invite people into the story of God, so they feel seen, known, and loved. His recent book, Finding Soul Rest, is available now!

Regardless of which party you tend to gravitate towards or who you cast your vote for, the odds are you are carrying a heavy weight of tension and stress with you this week. Gabe and Rebekah hope this conversation provides encouraging and positive insight into what comes next for us post-election. Regardless of the outcome, there are great lessons to be learned from this year.

2020 has taught us the importance of getting involved and knowing our local government and regulations. Now we know first-hand the way in which the rulings of our state governors and city mayors can make or break different scenarios. Lastly, we hope this episode serves as a reminder to keep the proper perspective in doing your part and putting your trust in the Lord. Do the things you need to do to detox from the media and keep yourself balanced.

Last week’s episode discussed the input rhythms (rest and restore). This week, Gabe and Rebekah emphasize the importance of the output rhythms (connect and create). When our bodies and minds are rested and restored, we are then able to go out and empower others and utilize the gifts and talents that God has uniquely designed for each of us. After all, being filled up isn't just for your benefit, but for the benefit of those around you.

As we continue to navigate an unknown season that could easily ignite worry and fear, it’s crucial to intentionally connect with our people and continue dreaming. There is a sacredness of unity that happens when we assemble together. Take the time identify the things that make your heart come alive and then go do those things!

In a cultural moment where we're being pulled in different directions, burnout can creep in quickly. In today's conversation, Gabe and Rebekah sit down to share with the listeners the importance of making rest and restoration a priority. We can't keep trying to give from an empty cup. 

What would it look like for you to run fueled from a posture of rest? In this episode, you'll gain insight on how to establish a healthy morning and evening routine and easy tips on how to begin restoring your mind and body. 

Each of us can do these things. It just takes intention ahead of time versus living in a constant reactive state. Gabe and Rebekah hope this episode encourages you to take inventory of your life today!

Tear alert! This episode with Mary Marantz is intimate and vulnerable. She shares with us the messy pieces of where her life began and how God has used those to create a life she wouldn't trade.

This week's conversation on the Rhythms for Life podcast is with the one and only, Jamie Ivey. Often times, we find ourselves looking at everyone around us to try and decipher our own calling and purpose.

Jamie is the host of the popular podcast, the Happy Hour.  She lives in Austin, Texas with her husband, four kids, and two dogs. She loves encouraging women to be all that God has created them to be, and this week's conversation will do just that. Gabe and Rebekah can't wait for you to listen!

Often times, the fear of not knowing how to pray can be the very thing that turns us away. It can seem intimidating, but the reality is that there is no right way to pray. God wants to speak to you and hear from you in the same way that your friend or family member does. This conversation with Chrystal Evans Hurst reminds us  just that. Chrystal encourages the listeners to start where you are and focus on just taking it one day at a time. Her new book "The 28-Day Prayer Journey" includes a step-by-step process on how to begin an intimate relationship with God through prayer. Chrystal is a deep well of knowledge and wisdom, and it is a gift for Gabe and Rebekah to have this conversation with her today.

When we confront the thing we can't change, there's an invitation for it to change us. Nicole Zasowski is a marriage and family therapist, writer, and speaker. She shares her journey where she discovered that sometimes God's rescue looks like prying our fingers off of what we think we want so that we can receive what we truly need. And often, on the far side of pain we don't prefer, we find transformation we would not trade. She brings an incredible amount of wisdom, and Gabe and Rebekah believe the powerful message she carries will resonate with many listeners.​ Grab a copy of Nicole's book From Lost to Found today!

In this episode, Jill McSheehy joins us to talk about all things gardening! Frustrated with the lack of gardening resources for new gardeners when she began her first garden in 2013, Jill created the Beginner's Garden to help others with the same frustrations. Through Jill's guidance in the podcast and web articles, thousands of beginning gardeners have been able to start and grow their own gardens.

Recently, gardening and spending time outside has become a new hobby for many people. Jill encourages listeners that you don't have to be an expert to have your own garden. The benefits of growing your own crops are endless, as it is so much more than just what you are harvesting. Not only are you able to to see your hard work physically come to life and provide your home with fresh fruits and vegetables, but it is also refreshing for your mental health as you experience in detail the gifts that God has created. We hope you enjoy this conversation with Jill!
