Intentional Living, Part 1: Start Where You Are
from The Renew Podcast · host Opendoor Church
You want to live with more purpose, but somewhere between the to-do list, the kids, and the mental background noise of everything you haven't done yet, intentional living starts to feel like one more thing to fail at.In part one of this two-part conversation, Pastor Gina and Meghen unpack what it actually means to live intentionally, and it's not what you think. It's not a better planner or a longer checklist. It's knowing where you are, letting the Lord order what's in front of you, and learning to hold your days loosely enough that there's room for Him to move.They open in Ephesians 5 and Colossians 3, then get honest about the moments that expose how stretched thin we really are: the short tone with our kids, the dinner reservations we choose because we know we'll actually be present there, the plant that kept growing because nobody was striving over it.If you've been asking "Am I going to be okay?" and looking for the answer everywhere except the One who has it, this episode is for you.Part two drops next month with practical steps you can actually use.Text RENEW to 45000 to stay connected, share your story, or ask for prayer.
