149. Trading Our Ashes for Beauty: Christ Has Risen Indeed

Hello, beautiful! If you've been walking through this Lenten season with me — climbing the mountain, sitting in stillness, releasing what no longer serves you — then today's episode is your reward. It's time to exhale. Christ has risen indeed, and today we trade our ashes for beauty, step into the sunlight, and celebrate the sacrifice that set us free. We let the words from Paul Baloche's powerful song, "You Gave Your Life Away," and Isaiah 61 wash over us with promises of freedom and joy, and close with Kathryn Scott's gorgeous reminder that at the foot of the cross, we are made complete. This isn't just another Sunday or another new season — we are His fresh flowers, ready to bloom. In today's episode, we'll settle into the glorious truth of Easter and what it means as we step forward into a new season. You'll Discover: 👣 Why Easter is our exhale after the sacred work of Lent 👣 How to trade your ashes for beauty and step into what's next 👣 Why we are fresh flowers in His garden — needing only sunlight, rain, and grace to bloom 📖 So, grab your tea and your Live Your Life journal, available at: https://etsy.me/3Txdc1z — and use code PODCAST15 for 15% off any workbook! 🌟 Know someone who needs a little light?
