Soul Sisters 7: Healthy Body, Healthy Mind

I can’t wait for you to listen to this conversation with my sister Diana Sahakian, who is a Physical Therapist and Wellness Coach, about the importance of taking proper care of our physical bodies. Together we’ll address some questions that I believe will encourage you to see your body as a gift to steward for God’s glory, as well as for your spiritual health and joy.

Soul Sisters #4: Making Margin

We are living in an age where business, efficiency, and accomplishments are celebrated. But ultimately our fast-pace lifestyle and expectations to keep up with everything will lead to negative results, including anxiety, lack of deep relationships, and burnout.
In this podcast episode I invite you to listen to a conversation about why it is so important to establish margins in our lives, margins that serve to refresh us, reset us, renew us.

Soul Sisters #3: Rage Age

We can all agree, we are living in a rage age. Whether on the road, on social media, in political discourse, in the church or among friends, it seems we have lost the virtues of kindness, humility, and self-control, and replaced them with accepting, respecting, and even encouraging outbursts of emotion in the name of being “right.”
But a quick search about what the Scripture says about anger will point out that anger is not the way of a Christ-follower, not even when clearly wronged.
On today’s podcast we will talk about how to become counter-cultural when it comes to rage, how to recognize righteous anger from sinful anger, how to change and be Spirit-led, and how to harness anger for positive action.

Dear Lina: I feel disconnected from my church. Is it me or is it the state of the church?

Many people in the U.S. are struggling right now with feeling disconnected from the church.
The reasons might be many. Maybe because of COVID, maybe because our way of life changed to a much more virtual reality, maybe because the state of affairs in the church has been troubled for some time, or maybe because we disengaged from the church.
How shall we recognize the cause of our disconnection from the church and how can we find the remedy?
Friend, I will frame today’s episode by asking three questions I’d like you to consider as you think about your relationship to your local church. I trust this will be helpful and encouraging!
