   14. Rejection to Redirection: Intentional Dating, Clarity & God’s Timing | Colin & Calista

   I’m so pumped to share this conversation with y’all as I have the privilege and honor of inviting my dear friends (that’s right—TWO special guests) on the podcast! In this episode, Colin and Calista share their story of rejection, intentional dating, and trusting God’s timing. We go beyond discussing relationships to reflecting on the truth of our identity in Christ, how past wounds and experiences shape the way we see ourselves and others, and what it looks like to lay down our lives in daily surrender to the Lord. Together, we answer the tough questions you have about relationships through the lens of Scripture: - How do I know when I'm ready to be in a relationship? - How do you discern if someone is worth pursuing? - What does intentionality without pressure look like before/during the dating process? - How do you balance feelings, wisdom, and faith when making relationship decisions? - How can we discern between God closing a door and our own fears holding us back? From navigating long-distance while serving on summer missions in Hungary/Japan to learning how clarity and honest communication can be one of the most Christlike things you bring into a relationship, this conversation is equal parts thoughtful, practical, and of course a whole lot of fun. :) If you’ve ever wondered how to date with clarity, how to recognize healthy relationship dynamics, or how to hold your plans loosely while following God’s leading, we hope this feels like sitting down with friends who are figuring it out too. ♡ Go out and be a light! ☼ #livoutsidethebubble

   What's up, everybody! I'm back after a brief break from the podcast & let me tell y'all, this EP was worth the wait! ☆ ☆ ☆ Listen in as I sit down with a beloved mentor of mine, Miss Anca, as we discuss how we can practically heal from past trauma.

She also speaks of losing her sister to cancer in 2018, which jump started her path to true healing and freedom. We talk about the adoption of her son, her journey of healing from childhood abuse, and much more. Join us as we discuss how we, through counseling and community, can break free from the bondage of the past in order to truly enjoy the present life God has graciously given. ☆ ☆ ☆ “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 ☆ ☆ ☆ While trauma may not be our fault, it becomes our responsibility to deal with it. Tune in to hear some practical tips on how we can make living in freedom possible with the help of the Lord and others!

   6. Changing Seasons: Living A Life Of Constant Adjustment!

   REPUBLISHED EP ALERT! 🤩 It’s almost fall y’all and you know what that means! Head-back-to-school time! Whether you’re entering high school, college, or simply just another year of life, we’re here with some practical tips to help you start the season off right! We’re bringing back this favorite from the spring, so sit back, relax, and discover some audio treasures before jumping straight into all the amazing things your new season will bring! ———————————————————— We've all experienced change in our lives. The uncertain, and yet exciting nature of stepping into a new role in a place you've never been before is enough to make anyone anxious. Perhaps you recently started a new job or entered into a relationship or maybe you're simply wondering what the next few months are going to be like. You're in the perfect place, my friend, as in this episode we will be discussing the joys and concerns surrounding several topics including: - How do I know God's will for my life? - How can I learn to be content without knowing the next step? - What is this "peace that transcends all understanding" and what are some practical ways I can experience it when I'm ridden with anxiety? - How can I fight comparison and celebrate others when they're living the life I’ve always wanted? - *BONUS* What are some practical tips on how I can honor my future spouse? and many more! Take notes, y'all, because you're in for a treat! I'm beyond thrilled for you to join me and my excellent, Can-Jam-champion youth pastor Logan as we explore the beautiful journey of jumping into the next season that God has planned for us! :) Through engaging personal stories and references to evidence of God's guidance throughout the Bible, we discuss the fear of transitions and how to experience the freedom that following God one step at a time brings us. When we focus on God's faithfulness through every season, we are then able to trust Him more fully as we step into the future! We begin to flourish when we learn to surrender our plans to the Lord and trust in His greater purpose for our lives (Proverbs 16:9). Listen in as we learn to rest in the victories of our own lives and celebrate the accomplishments of others, while measuring every goal against God's perfect and pleasing will. Ultimately, it's His story; we're just living in it! #livoutsidethebubble ♡ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/liv-outside-the-bubble/message

    4. Close Your Mouth, Open Your Eyes: Grandpa's Departing Reflections on Life, Love, and Legacy

    In this poignant episode, we pay tribute to the wisdom and insights of a remarkable individual that I'm honored to call my Grandpa. Join us as we delve into a heartfelt conversation with him about his childhood growing up in poverty during the 1950s, the amazing relationships he's developed over the course of his life, and the incredible risks that he's taken along the way. My hope and prayer for everyone listening is that you will discover the joy of living--and loving--well, as my Grandpa exemplified so beautifully through the witness of his life. From a very young age, my Grandpa made a commitment to do whatever it took to take care of the people he loved. During our conversation at his hospice bedside, we uncover some of the practical ways we can carry that decision into fruition and develop more meaningful relationships with those right around us. It isn't easy, but Grandpa provides us with simple ways we can express our gratitude for others, celebrating their growth and seizing every opportunity to let them know they are cherished. :) Prepare to be inspired as we explore how a collection of small, deliberate actions can create lasting change in the world. This episode is a reminder to us all to keep our eyes wide open to the opportunities we have to bless others. Never underestimate your ability to impact the world. After all, it's a whole bunch of us doing the little things that will translate into a world forever changed! ☆ - - - - This episode was recorded four days before he passed away. Our conversation is posted here as a digital memorial to commemorate his life and provide a glimpse of his wisdom for those who did not get the privilege of knowing him personally. May his words guide you toward a life filled with deeper connection, undeniable purpose, and greater appreciation for the beauty of life. Larry Abney (February 21, 1950 ~ January 24, 2023) | Rest in peace, Grandpa.
