Heart of the Broken | Words and Stuff

When we were praying about what messages we should include during this holiday week, we felt God lay this topic on our hearts which is very fitting as we spent today focusing on the hearts of the broken. This message is for those carrying the pain of whatever comes with feelings of brokenness on the inside and are looking for relief and healing.

Thanksgiving | Words and Stuff

On this day meant for family and fellowship, we constructed the live-stream for those who don’t have a place to go or family to see or maybe just want to include some Biblical perspectives in their Thanksgiving. We gathered together to remind ourselves about what we should be thankful for, while spending some time in fellowship. If you know anyone or see anybody that needs a message like that, please send them in our direction. Happy Thanksgiving from the Words and Stuff crew. Much love.

Depression | Words and Stuff

Despite this time of year being about connecting with friends/family while we talk about all that we’re grateful for, there’s still plenty of people who are finding themselves either depressed or deeper into a current state of depression. The intention with today’s broadcast is to hopefully encourage/support those battling depression, regardless of it being seasonal or a lifestyle.

Resolving Conflict | Words and Stuff

Since many will be visiting with friends and family over the holidays, a lot of us could use some encouragement or guidance for dealing with people, especially when it comes to potential conflict or broken relationships. We spent our time this morning doing exactly that.

Finding Rest | Words and Stuff

It’s a safe bet that we all struggle, sometimes more often than not, with finding restful sleep or at least getting what we need out of whatever time we can rest with. Like a worn out battery that can barely hold its strength even after a full night on the charger. I wonder how many of us could also say the same thing about our own souls…

During this episode Words and Stuff, we went heavily into this topic so that those who are looking to find rest, in one way or another, can acquire some encouragement and potential relief.

In God's Hands | Words and Stuff

You might have heard people say things like “it’s in God’s hands now” or “it’s time to let go, and let God”…but what does that actually mean? We explored this topic from a Biblical perspective to get a better understanding of the value of letting God take control over your life, as well as how to go about handing over whatever burdens you may be carrying.

Forgiving Yourself | Words and Stuff

Something I consider to be a relatable struggle for a lot of folks is the ability to forgive oneself. We can find it much easier at times to let others off the hook, but for a variety of reasons it can be incredibly difficult to extend that same grace within. In this episode of WaS, we spent our time looking towards scripture and the wisdom of God about this obstacle, in order to acquire the relief of releasing ourselves from the guilt of past mistakes.

Irrational Behavior | Words and Stuff

Do you ever catch yourself acting out irrationally? Are you ever puzzled while watching others behave in a nonsensical way? During this episode we started digging into the root of this problem, in hopes that we could better navigate these emotional waters with a better understanding of ourselves and the people that are in and out of our lives.
