If you have given up on your dreams, I want to encourage you today. Don't stop dreaming. God is the Dream Giver and the Dream Fulfiller, when those dreams align with His word. He is able to restore your dreams or to give you new, better ones. I invite you to come to our upcoming ladies' retreat, Dreams Come True, on Saturday, November 2, 2024, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. CST at Bates Social in Butler,...

Are you following Jesus, or looking at the other disciple? In John 21:22, Jesus commanded Peter to follow Him, after Peter asked Jesus, "What about him?" (referring to the other disciple). Jesus told him not to worry about John. You and I don't need to worry about what other people are doing and saying, but to keep our eyes on Jesus and to stay in our lane, following and obeying Him....

We have this one precious life that's been given to us by God for His glory. This podcast is inspired by my vlog, Love and live well, family vlog, and dream bigger. What kind of life do you desire? Dream and imagine that and then go do it, as the saying goes. Glorify Jesus with your life every day. Love God, your family, and others. Fulfill your purpose. Use your gifts and talents. Travel and...

Technology is always changing. I am doing a test video podcast on Riverside.fm since Spotify now uses Riverside.fm for people to record video podcasts and audio only podcasts. Testing to see if this time works.

I'm testing Riverside.fm for video and audio only podcasts.

The Queen of Sheba came to King Solomon as she heard of his great wisdom and wanted to meet him and see the riches of his kingdom. But she didn't come or leave empty handed; in fact, she left with more than she brought for him! Recently, I flew to attend minister Kay Nash's prophetic women's conference in Fort Meyers, Florida. Kay and her other two anointed speakers, Jennifer Moore and...

Recently I flew from Kansas City, Missouri to Fort Meyers, Florida to attend Minister Kay Nash's prophetic women's conference on Saturday. I knew that the day before, Friday, was the only time I would have to go to the beach/ocean, which is my place of happiness and peace. I reserved an Uber ride before I left for my trip to pick me up at the airport to go straight to the beach. I was so e...

Did you know that God has a royal position and assignment for you, that only you can fulfill? Cinderella went from rags to royalty, and not only did she dance with the handsome Prince at the big ball, but she winded up marrying him! God has so much more for you and me than we can even think or imagine. He has chosen and called us to greatness in His Kingdom, using you and me in powerful ways for J...

From a broken home to a beautiful new place, Elizabeth Lundeen realizes now that God will restore and forgive any sin. She spent years running from God and now runs passionately to Him each day. Hurt and confused, for so long she desperately tried to fill the God hole inside her by pursuing academic excellence, partying with friends, having sex with different men, and building a good career and ch...

Do you thank God each day for His blessings and help? In Luke 17:11-19 NKJV, Jesus encountered 10 lepers, who cried out to Him for mercy and healing. He told them to go show themselves to the priest (who would proclaim them healed and cleansed and restored to society). Only one of the lepers, a Samaritan, saw that he was cleansed and returned to thank Jesus with a loud voice. Each day we need to t...

What inspires you? As Christian speakers, authors, and entrepreneurs, it’s important for us to intentionally seek to be inspired to release our creativity. My place of peace, happiness, and inspiration is the beach/ocean, specifically Destin beach, Florida.

What dream, big or small, do you have in your heart? Who or what has hindered or stopped it? God wants to help you make your dreams come true! In this episode, Beth M. Jones shares 5 dream stealers to be aware of --and that God can help you overcome. 1. Hurts, disappointments, and comparing yourself to others; 2. Finances; 3. Health issues; 4.

In this episode, I just do a "podcast chat," sharing about: the stray cats that I've been feeding and taking care of; God's miracle for Phil the stray cat; this week's blog post, Lessons From Stray Cats; my newest book, The Crying of Rachel: A Call to Repentance; my live event on Zoom this Thursday, November 30, at 11 am CST, The beautiful gift of repentance (please join us!)...

Are you using your spiritual gifts, talents, and skills for God's glory and to make the maximum impact on others? In this episode, I share 10 ways that writing books has changed my life. Do you want to write (or finish writing) a book? Quotes: "Let the word burn through you. Throw the prism light, white hot, on paper." (Ray Bradbury, WD) "After nourishment, shelter, and companio...

Who are you accountable to in your life and in your business? Accountability and support are important. Accountability helps us to grow. One day we'll all stand before God to be accountable to Him for our lives. We also need to intentionally surround ourselves with people who can keep us accountable to help us succeed in our biz. I'm leading a writers' Progress Pod for my writing coach...

It's back to school time, which is always exciting for kids buying new supplies. I feel the same way as a business owner, buying new office supplies. I'm like a kid in a candy shop when the stores have school supplies sales! My challenge and question for you this week is what are you learning? I'm doing two new things lately: I recently began attending a new church and joined a ladies&...

Several years ago, I bought a beautiful sea glass necklace. I love the beach and ocean; it is my place of peace and refilling. Sea glass is created from broken bottles, tableware, or even shipwrecks, rolled and tumbled in the ocean until their edges are rounded off and the slickness of glass has been worn to a frosted appearance. God wastes no pain and uses it for the good and His glory. He is mak...

Recently we had severe weather here in the Kansas City, Missouri area. Our daughter Heather was caught in the storm. The power at the restaurant where she, her fiance Andy, and his kids went lost its power as they pulled up to eat supper there. They then went home and the power was out at their house, too. It was off for 7 hours! What do you do when problems arise and life's storms hit? Rely o...

Do you need a miracle today? A miracle is a sign of the supernatural power of God. He still does them today! God has done many miracles in my life and in my family's lives. This is the topic of my new Kindle eBook, Miracles: God's extraordinary power in our everyday lives. It's about the miracles that God has done in my family and stories of miracles in the Bible. What miracle are you...

Have you been praying and praying for something and your prayer hasn't been answered? It feels as if there is a brass ceiling over your prayers. One reason that your prayer may not have been answered is sin. Isaiah 59:2, NKJV, says, "But your iniquities have separated you from your God; and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear." Psalm 66:18 says, "If...

Did you know that your worship and praise of God is spiritual warfare against the enemy, Satan? Last night I had a dream about this. I was having (hosting) a women's conference. I was getting dressed and ready for the conference with makeup and lipgloss and looking into the mirror. I feel this part of the dream symbolizes our need to always be prepared and be ready to share the gospel of Jesus...

Have you wondered why your prayer hasn't been answered? This may be just one reason. James 4:2-3, NKJV, says, "Yet you do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures." The word "amiss" in the original language is kakos (Blue Letter Bible, Strong's #2560), which means "badly, diseased, ev...

Did you know that God hears you when you pray? Whether you're praying for something big or small. As a Christian believer, you have God's authority and power when you pray and He WILL answer you! (Luke 10:19, ESV) I give two examples of this by God answering my prayers for me to travel to Destin beach, Florida, last year and a good, used car THIS year! However, God is not Santa Claus or a...

Do you have a consistent prayer life? Do you believe that God answers your prayers? Today, May 4, 2023, is the National Day of Prayer. To me, God often seems turtle-slow about answering prayer. I've been praying about some things for years. I've wondered if God even hears me or cares. He loves you and me so much! But God isn't slow. He hears us as Christian believers when we pray and H...
