Why Rest Feels Risky Rest sounds good in theory, but it can feel unsafe when your identity is tied to productivity. For some of us, slowing down forces us to face insecurities we'd rather outrun. In this episode, I share how I filled my life with "work" and "ministry" because those were places I felt confident, while home life exposed the areas where I doubted myself — even with a husband who believed in me completely. We'll look at Matthew 11:28–29 (NASB) to see what it means to accept the rest Jesus offers, even when stillness feels uncomfortable. This is a conversation about trading self-protection for the safety of His presence. If rest has felt more like a threat than a gift, this episode will help you take the first step back toward it.

When You're Afraid to Hope Again Hope can feel dangerous when you've been disappointed before. You want to believe again, but the thought of being let down keeps you guarded. In this episode, we'll talk about the risk of hoping after closed doors, how God meets us in that hesitation, and why courage sometimes looks like trying again. You'll hear a story about gaining momentum in a calling, watching it crumble overnight, and wrestling with God over why He let it happen. Psalm 27:13–14 (NASB) will anchor our conversation as we remember that hope in Him is never wasted. If you've been holding your dreams at a distance to protect yourself, this is your invitation to bring them back to God.

God is Still Kind in the Unknown What do you do when you don't know what's next? This episode is for the one still sitting in the fog—waiting, wondering, wrestling with God, and feeling forgotten. If you're tired of having no clarity and no direction… you're not alone. This one comes straight from the middle of the unknown. Inside this episode, we talk about: How our family has spent 3 years in a season of uncertainty The pain of making plans only to lay them back down What Romans 8 really says about hope and suffering Why God's kindness isn't always loud—but it's always present How to hold onto faith when all you have are groans God hasn't forgotten you. The waiting isn't wasted. And even here—especially here—He is still kind. 🔗 Resources: 🎁 Grab the free 5-day guide: Seen: A 5-Day Guide to Feeling Again 📱 Follow Cami on Instagram: @camireneejones Sign up for emails and all the things here 🎧 Subscribe & Leave a Review Your reviews help others feel seen and heard too.

Not Everything Deserves Your Energy You don't have to take it all on. In this episode, we talk about what it means to live with discernment—especially when your peace, purpose, or identity is constantly being pulled in a dozen directions. The world might tell you to "let them" and move on, but Scripture shows us a better way: emotional stewardship rooted in Christ. We walk through: Why Jesus didn't defend Himself to everyone—and how that frees us to stop overexplaining What it looks like to guard your heart without hardening it How to tell the difference between setting a wise boundary and writing someone off A personal story of when I carried too much and started to hate myself for it Why emotional exhaustion is not your fault—and not your portion It's about clarity, not coldness. This isn't about independence. It's about intimacy with God. Because not everything deserves your energy—but everyone still deserves love. Let's talk about how to walk that line with grace. 🔗 Resources: 🎁 Grab the free 5-day guide: Seen: A 5-Day Guide to Feeling Again 📱 Follow Cami on Instagram: @camireneejones Sign up for emails and all the things here 🎧 Subscribe & Leave a Review Your reviews help others feel seen and heard too.

You're Not a Burden Have you ever felt like you're "too much" to be loved? Like your emotions are exhausting, your presence is heavy, or your needs might push people away? In today's episode, Cami speaks directly to the one quietly carrying the lie that they are a burden. Whether that message was spoken over you in childhood, implied through silence, or internalized through exhaustion, this conversation will remind you of the truth: God never called you a burden. He calls you beloved. And He carries what you carry—daily. Together, we'll explore: Where the lie of being "too much" often starts How it shapes the way we show up (or don't) in relationships What Scripture actually says about our weight, our worth, and God's willingness to hold both Why Jesus never asks us to clean up or quiet down before coming to Him This one's for the over-apologizer, the emotional caretaker, the one who says "I'm fine" through tears. You are not a problem to fix or a burden to bear. You are someone God loves to carry. 📖 Scripture Referenced: Isaiah 46:4 Psalm 68:19 1 Peter 5:7 🔗 Resources: 🎁 Grab the free 5-day guide: Seen: A 5-Day Guide to Feeling Again 📱 Follow Cami on Instagram: @camireneejones Sign up for emails and all the things here Have you ever believed you were a burden?

Season 2, Episode 9: Letting Go of Who You Thought You'd Be What happens when life doesn't look like you thought it would—and you don't look like the person you expected to become? In this episode, Cami gently unpacks the silent grief that comes from unmet expectations, internal pressure, and performance-based faith. Whether you're still wrestling with anxiety, over-apologizing for your emotions, or trying to "fix" yourself faster, this conversation will help you name what hurts and release who you thought you had to be. Jesus isn't waiting for the perfect version of you. He's already here—offering rest for the real you. In this episode, we explore: 💬 The quiet grief of not being "who you thought you'd be" 💬 Why performing your way into peace doesn't work 💬 How to let go of self-imposed pressure and meet God in the present 💬 Scriptures that remind you: God's not disappointed in you Scriptures: Psalm 51:6 "Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being, And in the hidden part You will make me know wisdom." Psalm 62:8 "Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us." Psalm 138:8 "The Lord will accomplish what concerns me; Your faithfulness, Lord, is everlasting; Do not abandon the works of Your hands." Matthew 11:28–30 "Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is comfortable, and My burden is light."

When Guilt Creeps in After You Say No Let's talk about that moment — you set a boundary, say no, or finally stop overexplaining… and then guilt comes rushing in. Maybe you start questioning yourself. Was I too harsh? Was that unkind? Should I reach back out? If you've ever felt that quiet ache after honoring your own limits, this episode is for you. Cami shares what it looks like to walk in biblical discernment without defaulting to people-pleasing, how Jesus modeled boundaries, and why protecting your peace doesn't make you unloving — it makes you wise. This is your reminder that boundaries are not rejection. They're not cruelty. And they don't need an apology. In This Episode: What it feels like to set a boundary and instantly feel guilty Why many women confuse gentleness with being available all the time Jesus' example of boundaries and pulling away to be with the Father The emotional toll of over-functioning in relationships A biblical reminder that wisdom often means saying no Scripture Referenced: Luke 5:16 (NASB) — Jesus often withdrew to pray Proverbs 25:28 (NASB) — Without boundaries, you're vulnerable Galatians 5:22–23 (NASB) — The fruit of the Spirit includes self-control This Episode Is for You If: You've been called "too much" for creating distance You're exhausted from always being emotionally available You love people deeply but need room to breathe You've felt guilt after honoring your God-led discernment Subscribe to Seen and Heard for real talk, biblical encouragement, and honest conversations about being fully known by God.

The myriad of transitions left her with only ONE choice to chase God first and foremost over all else.  From the author of the blog and Instagram account, Chasing Sacred, comes a woman's one-stop-shop for sound theology and Christian community.  What started as a devotional blog quickly evolved into teaching women how to study the Bible.  Chasing Sacred is a ministry that offers truth-based resources for those that want to take their Faith seriously through sound theology, and Inductive Bible Study.  The Chasing Sacred team has grown in order to provide resources to women from and through every walk of life.  Download our Devotional App to receive daily doses of God's Word.  Mikella on Instagram

Lisa and Allison are sisters who are passionate about giving back. "Christmas is one of our favorite holidays, filled with fun + festive traditions. As we began to raise our own families, we often felt like the true meaning of Christmas and the spirit of giving was getting lost in the hustle and bustle of the season. We put pen to paper, wood to the saw, and clay in our hands to create a book, manger + baby Jesus –– a complete tradition to help families focus on giving and the real meaning of Christmas. Our goal was to create beautiful, timeless pieces that are built to last and will be used by your family year after year. Countless hours were spent writing the book, carving a baby out of clay and hand-crafting the wooden manger. We believe in this tradition and the way it can help shift the focus of Christmas to serving. To us, this is more than a business. It's a way to spread kindness + promote service." The Giving Manger helps families shift the focus of Christmas back to giving. A piece of straw is placed in the manger for each kind deed or act of service per- formed. On Christmas Day, the Baby is placed in the manger filled with service and love. As your family works together to give gifts of service you will find your hearts and home filled with more joy during the holiday season than ever before. The Giving Manger comes in a box set with a book, manger, straw, and a Baby Jesus. Purchase The Giving Manger today! Follow The Giving Manger on Instagram
