  • #170 Rambling Fun!
    Jan 13 2025

    This week's conversation has us pondering some serious (and not-so-serious) topics including whether we need chore charts for grownups and our low level goals for 2025. Angela shares how she overcame a bad mood with Jesus, chicken, and some really cute Target boots. We discuss the new year and why we prefer rhythms and habits over resolutions (Did you make any resolutions? Send us updates if you did!). We also talk about bible reading plans and why they matter. We wrap it all up with Angela's word for the coming year and our prayer for us all. As always, we hope this episode encourages you and puts a smile on your face. We love y'all and love serving you through this podcast!
