Life Is Funny Until It’s Not

I hope laughter is a regular part of your days. Maybe we even get to be a part of that. Laughter is so good for the soul.

But life isn’t always funny or fun. How do we not lose our joy in those moments and seasons?

Emmy-nominated comedian, Chonda Pierce, believes that humor can help. Her new book Life Is Funny Until It’s Not will make you laugh and cry. Maybe all at once.

Chonda takes the risk to rawly and honestly share her life story, the good, bad, and really hard, to help you and me.

Loneliness

Steve DeWitt, author of Loneliness: Don’t Hate It or Waste It. Redeem It & Senior Pastor of Bethel Church in the Chicagoland area, joins us to share that our moments and even our long seasons of heart aching loneliness need to be gospelized.

Loneliness doesn’t have to be our enemy. It can be the path God uses to move us toward flourishing in our relationship with God and the people in our world.

Then, do you ever feel like you’re not really known, and if you were, you’d be disqualified? Shawna felt that way just last week with a group of colleagues.

Perry admits: “I can so easily fall into thinking I have to perform to get God’s love. But perfectionism is bondage and the gospel is the only things that can free me!”

Lastly, what habits are being established now that will serve you well in the future?

Overflowing With Hope

If you have a desire to grow in your faith, strengthen your relationships, gain wisdom, grow new habits, experience more peace and live with purpose and passion then you’re in the right place.

We’re talking with Jesse Bradley, pastor of Grace Community Church in Seattle. Their church has created 28 Days of Hope, a commitment of 28 minutes a day for 28 days that will be sure to super-size your hope and grow your faith.

Alongside hope we talk about starting a drive-through prayer ministry at your church and growing a multi-ethnic church!

Shawna Beyer

Shawna Beyer has a way of telling stories that create personal connection— to her, to one another, and to God. She has been a homeschool mom, church planter, project lead for a consulting company, and church staff member. Though she’s been involved in ministry with her husband (Dan) in Iowa, Arizona, and now Michigan, she was born and raised in Southern California and as they say, “You can take the girl out of California . . .” She is mom to four grown kids (Bryn, Drayson, Eden, and Haven) who no longer need her but humor her anyway. Shawna is passionate about the rhythms we weave into the fabric of our lives to fall more in love with God each day. Healthy foods are her go-to, but she will abandon that whole track in a heartbeat for a homemade cinnamon roll like Grandma used to make.
