    12.26 Behind-the-Scenes Conversations, with Asheritah & Hannah

    What comes to mind when you think about walking with God? Throughout history, God has always desired companionship and friendship with the humans He created in His own image. I like to picture this dynamic of friendship and obedience as Walking with God. Every email, every conference call, every meal prepped, every floor swept has the capacity to hold divine purpose because we are divinely indwelled by God’s own Spirit. Even when sin marred humans’ relationship with God, He remained undeterred in His desire to walk with us.When we truly understand the privilege of walking with God in our daily lives, our mundane becomes contoured by the divine. Let’s turn to the example of Jesus to learn from Him how to joyfully walk with God. Listen in!

    12.24 Behind-the-Scenes Conversations, with Asheritah & Hannah

    If you’re super busy, overstimulated, and on the path of burnout, the number one thing that will turn that around is… awe and wonder. Does this surprise you too?! It’s not checking everything off your list – because eventually more will be added in. It’s not a spreadsheet that organizes all the details – because our days often don’t go as planned. Instead, the reminder of greatness and beauty is what can stop us in our tracks and shift everything.Think about standing in front of the Grand Canyon, standing at the water’s edge and watching the ocean waves, or holding a newborn baby. Whether big or small, when we experience awe and wonder, everything stills and, as a study proves, we discover unexpected joy and healing. Listen in as Asheritah and Hannah dive deep into an honest conversation about how we can have more WONDER in our daily life.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:My brand new book – Delighting in Jesus: Rhythms to Restore Joy When You Feel Burdened, Broken, or Burned-Out https://amzn.to/3Zb5HAiEphesians 1:17-19Asheritah and Hannah are hosting a FREE Online Book Club starting in January 2025.

    12.22 Behind-the-Scenes Conversations, with Asheritah & Hannah

    What image comes to mind when you hear the word prayer? What if prayer became less of a regular spiritual chore and more of a conversational friendship with God? What if God invites us to an ongoing exchange of whispers throughout our day—us whispering to Him and Him whispering right back to our hearts? What if our prayer lives reflected equitable amounts of both talking and listening? In those places in our lives where we feel burdened, broken, or burned-out, God invites us into this rhythm of ongoing communion with Him. And as we commune with God, conversing with Him throughout our day, He will restore our joy.

    12.20 Behind-the-Scenes Conversations, with Asheritah & Hannah

    The way we approach reading the Bible NOW is usually not how Jesus Himself approached the Word of God! Yes, a daily “quiet time” is a beautiful thing. But up until about 400 years ago, Christians did not have personal Bibles in their homes! What can we learn from them, and what can we learn from the ways Jesus  delighted in the Word? As a human, He took on all the limitations of flesh, which means when He  was memorizing Deuteronomy (when Satan tempts Him, Jesus quotes Deuteronomy three times!), He had to learn like every other human child does. In Scripture, we see that Jesus listened to, memorized, sang, spoke, and taught the Word.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:My brand new book – Delighting in Jesus: Rhythms to Restore Joy When You Feel Burdened, Broken, or Burned-Out https://amzn.to/3Zb5HAiJohn 1:14Romans 6:23Simply Bible: https://www.simplybiblestudy.org/John 5:39John 15:26-27John 16:12-13Join the FREE Online Book Club with Asheritah and Hannah: https://www.delightinginjesus.com/bookclubNow through Christmas, we have thank-you gifts for everyone who orders Delighting in Jesus!

    12.18 Behind-the-Scenes Conversations, with Asheritah & Hannah

    We tend to think of worship as the singing that happens in church on Sunday mornings. Some of us enjoy that more than others, and it’s easy to dismiss worship as something a worship team does. But the biblical view of worship is actually much broader and encompasses all of life, not just the singing parts. For those in the kingdom of God, all of life is sacred, and all of life is worship. How we live, how we work, how we parent, how we eat, how we love, how we play, how we make out or make up . . . it’s all worship. Or, it can be, if it’s offered as a gift to the One who made us and delights in us.

    12.14 Behind-the-Scenes Conversations, with Asheritah & Hannah

    “Ironically, in suffering I’ve found the presence of Jesus in a way that is delightful… not in exuberant rejoicing, but in quietly being held, supported, and lifted up when I have nothing left to give.”Your heavenly Father delights in you even when you are at your lowest. In your pain, your heartache, your sorrow and your disappointment… yes, even there, you are wanted and wildly loved. Friend, you don’t have to hide or hold back until you don’t feel like a burden. You don’t have to wait until you’re only feeling joyful in order to talk to God. We have a Savior who promises to be near to the brokenhearted, and He longs to hear your lament. In fact, it brings Him joy to come near to you, to work in you, and to work through you.The episode ends with a beautiful prayer, and throughout we talk about the goodness available to us right here and right now (not just one day in heaven!) even in the middle of great suffering, but at the beginning we want you to know: When things are hard, when things fall apart, when you feel burdened by the diagnosis or the endless to-dos or a broken relationship… there is hope, and Hope is holding you in your sorrow.P.S. Don’t miss Hannah’s powerful story about a prayer that changed her life. What a touching moment and a gentle challenge to go and do the same.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:My brand new book – Delighting in Jesus: Rhythms to Restore Joy When You Feel Burdened, Broken, or Burned-Out https://amzn.to/3Zb5HAiPhilippians 3:10John 10:101 Corinthians 2:16Patreon prayer partners: https://www.patreon.com/prayersofrestDelightingInJesus.com FREE RESOURCES:✅ JUMPSTART YOUR BIBLE STUDY HABITBible study doesn't have to be complicated or overwhelming.

    Read your Bible. Pray. Fast. Be in community. Share the Gospel. Worship. Go to church. Tithe. The list goes on and on! Spiritual disciplines can quickly feel like a burden, like something we’re failing at, or like one more thing on our to do list.Guess what? You won’t find “read your Bible and pray every day” in the Bible! There is no “one right way” to connect with God because God created us one of a kind.All of these things matter, but it’s time that we talk about the problem with spiritual disciplines and the FREEDOM that is ours in Christ Jesus.

    What’s more important: How we view God… or how God views us? A.W. Tozer and C.S. Lewis disagreed, and their thoughts sparked a powerful conversation about how too many of us have turned the Good News of the Gospel into “sin management.”What actually IS the Gospel? Have we missed something that is wildly and wonderfully true?

    12.4 Behind-the-Scenes Conversations, with Asheritah & Hannah

    “Sinners in the hands of an angry God” is one of the most well-known sermons of all time… but from cover to cover of Scripture, from the Garden of Eden to the marriage supper of the Lamb in Revelation, JOY is central to the Gospel. If you’re afraid or worried that God is angry with you, if you’re anxious because of God’s wrath, there’s really good news in this truth:Scripture says that Jesus came to make manifest what has always been true about God the Father. What we see in Jesus’ life in the gospels – the way that He reaches out to people, the way He sacrificially loves and serves and seeks out the person who is lost, the way that He wept and danced and chose a wedding party for His first miracle – shows us that we have a JOYful God.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:My brand new book – Delighting in Jesus: Rhythms to Restore Joy When You Feel Burdened, Broken, or Burned-Out https://amzn.to/3Zb5HAiJohn 1:181 Peter 1:3-4Psalm 37:11Matthew 5:5Hebrews 7:25Hebrews 4:14-16Patreon prayer partners: https://www.patreon.com/prayersofrestDelightingInJesus.comThe Bible Project https://bibleproject.com/FREE RESOURCES:✅ JUMPSTART YOUR BIBLE STUDY HABITBible study doesn't have to be complicated or overwhelming.

    Podcast Update: Our Next (and probably LAST) season! 🥳

    It's been quiet here for a few months, but I'm back today with an update on the podcast: we're coming back for one last season: Prayers for Joy. Hurray! Over the past 18 months, God has been doing a work in my life, restoring the sparkle to my eyes and restoring the joy of His salvation in my life. I wrote a book about it called Delighting in Jesus, launching this December, and I want to take you along on the journey with me. 🤗We’re still pulling together the final details, but we hope to launch this season at the end of September.We’ll have the 10-minute Prayers of REST that you’ve come to know and love, plus bonus conversations with my friend Hannah Nitz sharing the back story of how all this came to be. If you don’t yet know Hannah, I can’t wait for you to meet her. I know you’re going to love her as much as I do! 🥰A BIG THANK YOU for your ongoing support throughout the summer that lifted the financial burden to make this an easy yes.  I’m excited for how God will move in our hearts in the coming months as we ask Him to restore our joy.If we ever needed a focused season of prayer for joy, I believe it’s this election season. And if ever the onlooking world needed to see believers whose faces radiate with the joy of God’s presence, it’s this season right here.Please pray for our team as we record these episodes and prepare to share them with the world. And in the meantime, be thinking of who you can invite to join you in prayer. Our favorite seasons of the Prayers of REST podcast involved little prayer groups popping up all over the country, and we’d love to do that one last time. So ask the Lord to bring to your mind a few friends whom you can invite to pray with you this fall. More details on that coming soon!With much joy,AsheritahSupport the show

    11.12 The Life-Changing Practice of a Prayer Notebook with Jani Ortlund

    What if there was a simple tool that could transform your prayer life? In this episode, Asheritah and her friend Jani Ortlund talk about a simple notebook format that took what Jani calls “a scattered prayer life” and turned it into a powerful conversation with Jesus. They also talk about how to handle times of spiritual dryness, why Jani believes “PUSHY” prayers are Scriptural prayers, and how her mother-in-law’s candor invited Jani into a deeper relationship with Jesus. Jani Ortlund, the Vice President of Renewal Ministries, loves connecting women with the Word of God.  Serving Christ through writing, speaking and discipling is her chief passion in life.  Jani, who podcasts at herestoresmysoul.org, and Ray, the President of Renewal Ministries, have four married children and fifteen grandchildren.
