<p>My kids and husband surprised me with the most thoughtful Mother's Day gift — a custom family portrait on canvas, beautifully framed. But when it arrived, the frame corner was damaged in shipping. In this episode, we talk about that moment of disappointment, the grace of a company that made it right, and a bigger question it stirred up in my heart: do I give God my best?</p><p>We look at the incredible care taken to build and maintain the Temple in 1 Chronicles 22, 2 Chronicles 22, and 2 Kings 12 — where kings like David and Jehoash provided in abundance and prioritized excellence for the house of the Lord. If they gave their absolute best for God's house, what does that say about the gifts, time, and offerings we bring to Him?</p><p>Are you giving God your best, or your leftovers?</p><p>🖼️ In this episode:</p><ul><li>A heartfelt story about a damaged (and replaced) family portrait</li><li>Why the details matter when we give gifts — to people and to God</li><li>What 1 Chronicles 22:5 reveals about David's preparation for God's Temple</li><li>The abundance and excellence described in 2 Chronicles 22:11-19</li><li>What 2 Kings 12:4-5 teaches about maintaining and repairing what we've given to God</li><li>A challenge to examine what you're holding back from the Lord</li></ul><p>💛 How can you make Monumental Moments and live to Multiply His Movement today?</p><p>👉 Subscribe for weekly devotionals connecting everyday life to God's Word.<br>👉 Share this episode with someone who needs a reminder to give God their best today.</p><p>#Devotional #ChristianPodcast #FamilyPhotos #1Chronicles22 #GivingGodOurBest #BibleStudy #FaithAndFamily #MothersDay #MonumentalMoments #TempleOfGod</p>

#139 Walking By Faith
<p>A local Facebook post caught my attention — a man wearing a "Walking by Faith" hoodie was being accused of stealing hundreds of dollars in merchandise from Target. The irony stopped me in my tracks. In this episode, we talk about the gap between what we wear (or say) and how we actually live.</p><p>We dig into some powerful faith verses often tied to this exact phrase — 2 Corinthians 5:6-7, Proverbs 3:5-6, and Hebrews 11:1-3 — and ask a hard question: do our actions actually match our declarations? Whether it's a cross necklace, a Christian t-shirt, or a bumper sticker, are we the same person in private as we are in public?</p><p>It's easy to wear the words. It's harder to live them.</p><p>👕 In this episode:</p><ul><li>A real story about a viral "Walking by Faith" hoodie controversy</li><li>What it means to actually "walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:6-7)</li><li>Trusting God over our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6)</li><li>What true faith looks like according to Hebrews 11:1-3</li><li>A challenge to make sure our actions match our Christian declarations</li></ul><p>💛 How can you make Monumental Moments and live to Multiply His Movement today?</p><p>👉 Subscribe for weekly devotionals connecting everyday life to God's Word.<br>👉 Share this episode with someone who needs a reminder to walk the talk today.</p><p>#Devotional #ChristianPodcast #WalkingByFaith #2Corinthians5 #Hebrews11 #BibleStudy #LiveYourFaith #FaithInAction #MonumentalMoments #ChristianLifestyle</p>

#138 Junk Drawers
<p>"But mom, it's nothing — it's just a junk drawer!" That's what a sweet little girl said while exploring drawers at our house during a dinner with friends, and it made me laugh out loud... and then think. In this episode, we talk about junk drawers — those catch-alls of old batteries, expired stamps, and random cords we swear we'll need someday — and what they reveal about what we're really holding onto.</p><p>Turns out, 95% of Americans have at least one junk drawer. But this episode goes beyond the clutter on your counter to the clutter in your heart. We look at Matthew 6:19-21 and Luke 12:15, and what Jesus says about where our true treasure — and our heart — should be.</p><p>Is it time for some spiritual spring cleaning?</p><p>🗄️ In this episode:</p><ul><li>A funny (and honest) story about junk drawers and curious kids</li><li>Surprising stats on how many Americans have — and use — a junk drawer</li><li>What Matthew 6:19-21 teaches about storing up treasure in heaven</li><li>What Luke 12:15 warns about covetousness and possessions</li><li>A challenge to check the "junk drawers" of your spiritual life — hurts, unforgiveness, and things that need to be cleared out</li></ul><p>💛 How can you make Monumental Moments and live to Multiply His Movement today?</p><p>👉 Subscribe for weekly devotionals connecting everyday life to God's Word.<br>👉 Share this episode with someone who could use a fresh start today.</p><p>#Devotional #ChristianPodcast #JunkDrawer #Matthew6 #Declutter #BibleStudy #TreasureInHeaven #FaithAndLife #MonumentalMoments #SpiritualSpringCleaning</p>
