In this impromptu episode, I describe the freedom of "outside the box" home education. With an emphasis on books and interest-led learning, I hope to inspire you to find your own unique path of home education.

Life Lessons: Homeschool Edition

In today's episode we look at the necessity of hope and dreaming for sustaining us through difficult seasons. Gather the Good features some book recommendations with characters who dream and/or endure in seasons of isolation. Show Notes: http://plottingpossibility.blogspot.com/2020/05/those-who-dreamed.html

Ep20: Those Who Dreamed

I'm one of those types who finds deep meaning in basically everything. I always have been. Throw a book, song, or movie at me and there's a real good chance I'll walk away with some meaningful message or inspiration. Usually both. So hopefully you won't think I'm a loon when I tell you that Frozen 2 spoke to me in very profound ways. Or, maybe you still think I'm nutsy cuckoo but at least you know it's totally keeping in character for me.

Ep19: Show Yourself, Know Yourself; or what I learned from Elsa

I missed recording an episode on Saturday so I could catch up with my kids and some household things. Today's episode wraps up our reading of my book, Reflections of the Resurrection, with John's perspective near the end of his life, and with some questions to help you consider your own story of Jesus. Take time today to consider what he has done in your life, and thank him. Celebrate-- Jesus is Alive!!

Reflections of the Resurrection: Palm Sunday (Day 1)

Sheltering in place is hard for us. We've never done this for any length of time. We don't know what the future holds, or how to deal with our own boredom. But there's hope. There is always hope. Let's look at Noah and see what we can learn from his family. Also, you don't want to miss this Gather the Good. There's so much goodness to check out!

Noah's Ark; or How to Shelter in Place

Today's episode is my addition of hope to the global conversation right now about social distancing, covid-19, and keeping the faith while we wait. I dive into what the We Banjo 3 song "Happiness" means to me, especially right now. Tune in! Show Notes: http://plottingpossibility.blogspot.com/2020/03/happiness-on-horizon.html

Ep11: Happiness is on the Horizon

Last week we talked beginning something new, this week we're tackling beginning again. Sometimes getting back up on the horse is really daunting. This is my story of begining again and there's loads of encouragement for your journey. And in Gather the Good, I have a music rec and two audiobooks you don't want to miss! Show Notes: http://plottingpossibility.blogspot.com/2020/02/ep10-begin-again.html

Ep10: Begin Again

Be brave enough to be bad at something new. It's not always easy to begin a new thing. We have fears and excuses that hold us back, but it's okay to be terrible starting out. You get better as you go. And God actually loves beginners. Listen in on this episode for some encouragement for your pursuit of a beginning, and to catch a special guest segment of Gather the Good. http://plottingpossibility.blogspot.com/2020/02/the-pursuit-of-beginnings-ep9.html

Ep9: The Pursuit of Beginnings

In this episode, I share some of what I've learned about running (actual physical running, not metaphorical), growing roots and the healing of ruts (both metaphorical).... "I had no idea running would be this kind of good for me. That soul work would be done. That freedom could be found by running and never actually leaving my own house. A decision to move just ten minutes a day has come to mean so much more to me than just checking off a goal on a list. ".... Gather the Good is full of music recommendations. These are the tunes and bands I mention in the episode and some of my favorites to listen to while I run. Join me as we get real about what running has taught me!
