Let's Be Cleere (Cleere)

What does it really mean to experience "revival" in our lives? What does Jesus say about it? Does it always have to be something big, serious, and intense in order to experience revival? In this episode, we dig into what Jesus means when He says He longs to revive every part of our lives-- no compartmentalization! How do we invite Him into every area, especially the dry, dreary, and even dead parts of where we are that we are afraid to be exposed? God wants you to experience the fullness and abundance of abiding in His presence and truly believing that He can restore anything.

We talk about prayer, we pray before we eat, and we hear about prayer. But do we really believe that God hears us? And if He does, does He care? Is He really for our lives? In this episode we dig into the truth, power, and supernatural perspective that prayer provides. It really is our lifeline.

It’s trendy and popular to be kind right now, but what does it mean to be truly kind? How does the kindness of Jesus look different than the world and what does it require of us? This week, we are getting honest about the motivation for our kindness and leaning into what Jesus might be asking of us in the place we find ourselves, in the culture we are in, and with the opportunities He has given us.

Words. Why are they so important? Why do they matter? What rewards or consequences do they bring? How do we choose good ones? How do we harness negative ones? What does it look like to glorify Jesus with our words?

Jesus has SO much to say about words! And what do we use every single day to communicate with those we love, those we just meet, and everyone around us? WORDS! The words we speak to others, our prayer life, our internal chatter, and the words we receive on a daily basis— all of these facets are vital for us to recognize where we invite life or death.

The power of the tongue is a game-changer in every situation, season, and struggle. What direction are you steering if your tongue is the rudder? Does it please God? We will dive deep and hopefully gain a better understanding of what it looks like to water words of life and hope.

Anticipation is much more than a feeling; when we anticipate someone or something, we put action behind it. What does Jesus have to say about this word? And how can we know, in our everyday busy lives, that we are living with anticipation? It may not be a word we think of when we imagine life-altering words, but trust me, anticipation is one of the greatest signs of faith.

JOY!!!

The word alone sounds like what it means, doesn't it!? But I think sometimes we feel like joy is this elusive feeling that is unattainable for us or is dependent upon certain circumstances coming to fruition. However, the kind of joy that Jesus offers has nothing to do with our how, our what, or our when-- it has everything to do with our who. WHO are we seeking to find our joy?

We will dig into some crucial, practical ways that will help us not just walk in joy but LEAP for joy! Kingdom joy-- it's something different.

We tend to put creating in a box...placing "creative" underneath the column of painters, photographers, artists, etc. But in reality, God created all of us to create! In this episode, we dig into the reasons why we tend to stay small, insecure, quiet, or unsure about the gifts He has given us, the space He has us, and the places He calls us to.

It's time to think outside the box. It's time to welcome back our imagination, dip into our innovative spirits, and ask Jesus to help us show up with bold creativity, not missing a single thing He has for us.

There is nothing more important to our Heavenly Father and the Kingdom of Heaven than relationships. They are the core of every good thing and the very reason we are here, right?

After authoring several books, creating content that is seen worldwide and speaking at thousands of marriage conferences, these two offer a wealth of wisdom and a willingness to be vulnerable about this topic.

What does it mean to be “diligent”? As we dig into this word and what Jesus says about it, we will learn that He is way more concerned about who we become as we complete a task than the completion of the task itself. Pursuing excellence is always a possibility when He is our focus.

We live in a fast-paced world full of constant motion, things happening, and obligations. These are EXCITING things but we often get so used to the pace of the rollercoaster, we don't realize how drained we are. We have normalized the poor boundaries in our lives and cultivated habits that lead more to our burnout than our building up.

So...what do we do? What needs to change? What does Scripture say? And is it truly possible to live from a constant place of refreshment? Well, we will dig in and I promise, it'll encourage you wherever you are, whatever you have going on, and in whatever season you find yourself navigating.

God didn't create us or give us this life to just survive it-- we were created to THRIVE! However, so many times, we just decide that our lives "are what they are", our habits have "become what they've become", and we don't access the authority and power we have as His children to live a NEW way!

What thought patterns do you have that might need some renewal? Are you just downright exhausted and wondering how you're going to fill up your cup these days? What might need some recalibration?

In this week's episode, we dig into what renewal looks like and discover how Jesus really can bring new life to ANYTHING.

We all have this gap between our actual selves and our ideal selves-- the gap that we work, strive, and exhaust ourselves trying to close on our own. We tend to fall prey to the lies that if we had more _____, we would experience fulfillment. When we arrive on the mountaintop, THEN we will partner with God and get courageous about where He is calling us, right?!

However, we see it in Scripture and all throughout our lives that God isn't interested in the person that we wish that we were; He is interested in our actual, real, authentic, broken, imperfect but made-by-Him selves. That is some GOOD NEWS.

Don't wait to arrive! Now, here, in this moment-- it's time to begin.

In this podcast, we dig into the word “with”- the four-letter, incredibly common word used a million times in our everyday vernacular but I personally think it might be the most powerful word in the english language. I know that’s a big statement but you’ll see what I mean as we dig deeper together. With: the notion of togetherness. Camaraderie. When you are with someone, you are not alone. I would argue that it is WHO you are WITH that changes your experience the most– not even where you are or what you’re going through or whatever it may be but the company you keep while you’re there.

In this episode, we walk through ten things that the Holy Spirit continuously reminded me of during our recent trip to Texas for Sledge’s physical therapy camp. Though not revolutionary, I firmly believe these reminders will challenge, encourage, and refresh you in whatever season you find yourself in right now.

Life on earth is short and yet, we spend so much time focusing on things that don’t matter and then trying to understand why our soul feels restless. That is mercy— pure grace— that we would hear the Father’s whisper in a million different ways as He calls us back to Himself and assures us that the satisfaction, richness, and meaning we are searching for can only be found in and through Him.

Praying that this episode meets you where you are. What is God speaking to you right now? Are you listening? Have you stopped long enough to hear Him?

What does it mean to be rooted in Jesus? How do we cultivate deep roots so that when the storms of life come, we won't be afraid, worried, or insecure?

Being rooted is ultimately the greatest desire of our lives-- to know that no matter what, we have security and certainty in where we stand. That is what Jesus offers and His well does not run dry but there are practical steps that help us rip out the weeds, trust our God-given identity, and BELIEVE that He is for us.

When we are a rooted people, the world will want what we have and question how we got there.

Authority is not often the word that we think of when we are imagining why we are struggling — BUT what would happen if we realized the authority of Heaven, the authority of Jesus, and the authority of the Holy Spirit inside of us? Would everything change? Maybe instead of praying for our circumstances to change, we start praying for help to walk in the identity and authority we have already been given. We have access to all the power we need to live audaciously in Him.

In order to truly live unfiltered and bring the unfiltered version of ourselves to the feet of Jesus, we must be willing to pay the cost of vulnerability. What are the risks? Is it safe? How do we know when to be vulnerable? And what happens if we aren’t willing? Do the costs outweigh the rewards? In this episode, we dig into both and learn what our Heavenly Father says about the power and necessity of being vulnerable. If we were crafted for relationship, is it possible to have a fruitful life and remain filtered? Let’s ask Jesus together!

Even though discipline doesn’t sound like a “fun” word, it is often the exact thing we are lacking to experience the fulfilling + fruitful life we desire. How do we discipline ourselves in godliness? What might be keeping us from exerting this self-control? We will dig into this word and the truth that will help usher freedom into every area of our lives.

God is always speaking— sometimes, it feels like the faintest whisper, and other times, it’s as loud as a mighty roar. In this episode, we dig into 5 things God is teaching me and why I feel like they matter; though not revolutionary or complex, His constant nudges are always the way to a fruitful and faithful life.
My prayer is that as you listen, the Holy Spirit might whisper to your own heart. Does something resonate with you? Or what has He been saying to your heart— and better yet, have you been listening?
Taking inventory of His voice reminds us that He truly is everywhere and that intimate details are His specialty.

Sometimes we believe the lie that freedom is the ability to do whatever we want, go wherever we please, and have whatever we desire. However, we see that with Jesus and throughout Scripture, a life lived like this ends in destruction, anxiety, fear, shame, and confusion. The abundant life is ONLY found in trusting God, obeying Him, and believing that the boundary lines He has drawn for our lives are in pleasant, secure places. God never leads us to places that restrict our lives; rather, He protects them. His instruction is always preserving our future, regardless of how it may feel in the moment. Do we trust HIs heart? How are we using our freedom now? Is it the life we hoped for?

"Let go and let God." We know the phrase and we even understand the power of it, but often the reality of our lives and the hardness of our habits meets us on the other side and we don't quite know what to do with it. And what do we let go? And when? And when we do let go, how do we know we will be okay? What if what God is asking us to release is keeping us temporarily secure, even if it's unhealthy? What if we let others down as we let go of what our Father asks of us? Release--- we will dig into this word and our doubts, hesitancies, and fears with letting go. Because when we do release-- when we truly surrender something to the Father's hands, our lives will always be richer, greater, and better on the other side of it.

Everyone, or most everyone, has good intentions, right? We WANT to live a life that is full of purpose, driven in the right direction, and expands the Kingdom of Heaven. Yet, how many times do we get to the end of our days, or even our years, and think, "Why wasn't I more intentional with my time?"

In this episode, we dive into FOUR QUESTIONS we can ask Jesus to get more intentional with our time, our resources, and our energy in every season. Realistic, relatable, and raw for right where this finds you.

Don't get to the end of 2023 wishing that once again, you had lived differently. Sit with Jesus and get intentional today because we all know, life surely will try to distract you :)

Jeannie Cunnion, my dear friend and soon to be yours, is the mama to five boys, a speaker, an author, a leader, a wife, and so many other things. Her work has been featured on TODAY, the 700 Club, Fox News, Focus on the Family and so many other places. Jeannie recently released her book, "Don't Miss Out," which is all about the person of the Holy Spirit. We know-- there are a lot of misconceptions about the Holy Spirit! Or maybe it feels confusing to you...ambiguous? Unaccessible? For the spiritually elite? Digging into the person and the power of the Holy Spirit, you will feel SO encouraged and empowered to live differently. We don't have to find more will-power to live a richer life; we need to discover more spirit-power. The good news? It's already inside of us because He takes up home within us.

How often do you really allow silence to be the background? I mean, true silence. Not the kind where we are sorting through a mental checklist while music plays in the background but the kind that can feel deafening and uncomfortable. The truth about silence is that it often strips of any language and distraction and forces us to realize our own need-- Where are we really at? What is God saying?

Silence allows us to dig past what is on the surface and allows the Holy Spirit to deal with what the inside looks like. All throughout Scripture, Jesus took the time to find silence, knowing that if He wanted to really hear His Heavenly Father, He was going to have to be intentional and disciplined about making room. Do we make space?

This episode digs into the benefits and importance of making silence our background so that we can live with a soul that is settled in knowing He is God and we are not.

Amidst the madness of life and the going, going, going, I think it's always so healthy and helpful to take a step back and ask yourself: What is God teaching me right now? Am I listening?  And when I hear Him, do I have the faith and courage to follow?

In this episode, Cleere dives into three different things God is teaching her right now...3 things that the Holy Spirit has continually prompted and brought to her spirit...

1. How do we find order? We all crave it.

2. Are we supposed to avoid tension in our relationships? Can it truly be helpful?

3. What happens we talk about how big Goliath is? Does it help us fight?

As you listen, think about the things God is showing your spirit. Turn down the voices and get still...He is speaking.

Do you feel like you are running around like a chicken with your head cut off at all moments? Physically exhausted, emotionally drained, and spiritually lacking.

Or maybe you feel like you need to get a little pep in your step and you're struggling with gaining the momentum or motivation to take a step forward?

As we dig into this word "pace", we see that we were never supposed to let the world, others, or ourselves determine our rate. We have the Holy Spirit and as we walk in-step with Him, we learn that He is our pacer, ensuring our success and helping us every moment of the way.

The pace of grace allows us to enjoy the view, trust the One who is leading us, and experience lasting peace no matter how hard the journey gets.

You probably already know my dear friend, Brittany Sjogren— the beautiful face and heart behind the Instagram, @loverlygrey. In this episode, we talk about how different perception is from reality, how boundaries are necessary to protect our peace, and how to find true fulfillment in an industry that can easily leave you chasing the next thing. Brittany is honest, wise, and authentic; her willingness to go against the grain is so refreshing and I can’t wait for you to hear her heart in this episode. If you’ve been procrastinating on pursuing your dreams, if you’ve been reluctant to show up because the desired space you’re interested in is too saturated, or if you’re burnt out from plowing the field and wondering if it’s worth it to keep going, this episode will meet you right where you are. It will encourage you, remind you of the power of hard work, and inspire you to trust the Holy Spirit with whatever you put your hands to. The truth is, we all have influence exactly where we are; the difference will be whether we realize that influence and what we choose to do with it. Take a note from Brittany: The world needs the unfiltered version of you!

We all want the pretty house and the completed projects-- it feels good, looks impressive, and helps us feel good about our current state of affairs. However, our Heavenly Father is so not worried about how things appear-- His concern is the state of our hearts. How are we really doing? Is there an issue, struggle, relationship, or thought pattern that we need restoration in but we are fearful to admit to ourselves, others, or Him?

He is the King of restoration and His type of restoration is not just repairing something to be functional or improving it's condition back to it's original form; He restores beyond recognition. His lavished grace, undeserved kindness, and rich mercy meet us in our mess and transform our minds, hearts, and lives beyond our comprehension.

Let's not wait...let's allow for the deep work and trust that He really can bring life back into anything. Our hope? Oh it is here and it is rich because our Savior will settle for nothing less.

What does it mean to surrender?

Is it irresponsible to truly empty your hands and leave everything at God's feet? How do you surrender and what does that look like? In this episode, we will dig into the word surrender and what Jesus has to say about it. I think a lot of us are tired of carrying around what we have been carrying around but establishing a different normal feels next to impossible with all the demands we have, the obstacles we know will come, and the expectations we place on ourselves....so what do we do?

If you are yearning for a new normal, a quieter mind, or the ability to operate from a posture of rest, this episode is for you.

This episode is special. My husband, Will Reaves, is on the podcast and y'all- prepare yourselves. He takes us to church, seriously. He talks about his experience in the hospital, how God's presence became loud to him, and how he fights to maintain that "looking for miracles" mindset in his everyday life.

Movement-- the literal act of moving our bodies-- is obviously necessary to keep us alive. Well, when it comes to moving towards God, it is also what keeps us alive! Physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually, etc. We can not operate in faith or receive the abundant life He has promised us if we do not move towards Him. It doesn't have to be massive steps; rather, it's often the daily, hand-to-the-plow moments that help strengthen our faith, solidify our foundation, stimulate our peace of mind, and stabilize our hearts.

What does it mean to really seek God? In our distracted and self-focused culture, sometimes we confuse desiring a solution with seeking God. As we lean in and learn His heart, we realize that we can trust His ways. The details of our lives may remain a mystery for now but the presence of the One leading us? He is absolute.

What we seek, we find. And as we seek Him, we find everything else. He orders our priorities, establishes our steps, and guides us in the way everlasting.

What does your life say about how you view God and His sovereignty? Does your prayer life suggest that you really believe He is who He says He is?

Is it true that when we believe in Jesus, we are given a brand new identity? What does this mean for our lives? What if we still crave the old ways and the comfortable places we were before? We dig into the transformation that ONLY Jesus provides. The Word gives us practical ways to invite this transformation into our lives and to truly grasp what it means to be changed from the inside out. The old has gone, the new has come!

What would the 2023 version of you hope you did RIGHT now? Right where you are, with what you have, and what you currently know? This podcast walks through the acronym “TWENTY-THREE” with 11 pieces of advice you can implement now, as you get to where you want to go. Whether you’re graduating from high-school, in your mid-thirties trying to navigate a career change, in the throws of parenthood, or a recent empty-nester, this episode is for you.

It's not super romantic to think about having to "stay" when we are ready to GO! Going is more fun, more adventurous, more impressive, right? But sometimes, it is the places we want to run from that God is most using to refine us.

As we learn to stay in His presence and learn His heart, we are reminded that we can always trust the preparation of the King. There is great promise and purpose where He has us.

And chances are, the harder it is to stay, the more He is calling us to stay in Him, depending on Him for our perseverance, endurance, and strength. We can do hard things because He is with us, in us, and watches after our way-- wherever we travel.

Welcome to Let's Be Cleere! This is a podcast where we get CLEAR about how to find a Kingdom perspective in ALL THINGS. My hope is that this podcast is a space we get raw and honest about what matters and lean into Jesus together. We will also have bonus episodes including interviews and additional content.

We often spend our lives working really, really hard towards things that don't matter in the long run. Or we spend our time desiring a harvest of righteousness but not being willing to plow the field and show up to create it. Or we get discouraged by what we thought would happen, the expectations we placed on the work, or the stress that is induced by it, and we wonder: What does all of this even amount to?

In this episode, we will dig into what it means to really cultivate a life that matters and a legacy that lasts. We were always created to work and we have ALL that we need to show up and tend to the last we've been given-- it's time to recognize the space we are in, speak life over the harvest, put in the work, and trust God with all else.

How often do we let the roadblocks of offense, bitterness, and shame get in our way? Jesus tells us time and time again that forgiveness is not an option; it is a command. A necessity. It is the only way to usher in freedom— to walk in the very forgiveness we have been offered and to freely give it to others. Digging into this topic, we will talk through several practical ways we can practice forgiveness in our everyday lives.

Digging into the last word of the Focus series and what better word than the name above every name— Jesus!

Where do we even start with talking about the person who provides meaning to all other things, changing the timeline for every person and place, and who died so that we can have life?

In this episode, we sort through some questions like what was most important to Jesus? And what did He do when He was discouraged?

I believe this episode will deeply encourage you and help you sit at His feet and that? It is the richest, most honest, most loving, safe place to be.

Are you walking through a season of transition and feel a little overwhelmed by all the change? Are you in a time of being hidden— plowing the field, waiting, and wondering if God sees you? Are you hungry for “more” but aren’t quite sure what could cure your restlessness?

Whatever it looks like for you, I believe this interview will meet you in that place. We talk about the hard truths about growth, the mercy of being hidden in Jesus, and the desperate need for us all to slow down, assess what God is actually calling us to, and rest in the unknown, knowing that there is One who knows everything and He is with us.

2020 has felt like one big setback for a lot of people. But guess what?! God is always calling us, helping us, and guiding us in advancing His Kingdom. What does it look like to advance in the unique and powerful ways God is asking of us where we are??? As we dig into this question and uncover some of the enemy’s tactics, we are reminded that victory is always our as we move with His mission in mind.

Simplicity. Having a simple life. Pursuing the simple things…it all sounds so…rosy yet unrealistic, right? Amidst the millions of distractions, hurried culture, and expectations of you, how is it possible to live a simple life? In this episode, we will dig into the how, what, who, and why behind pursuing a simple life— clearing the clutter and leaving room for what matters.

What is your purpose? How do you know if you are living a life of purpose? Is it possible to miss out on God's purpose for your life or a specific season?

In this episode, we dig into this word "purpose" and what God says about it. The truth is, our souls were made to live a life of rich purpose and anything short of it will always leave us feeling restless. God is the "more" we are craving in every circumstance.

So how do we walk in purpose? Listen in :)

What might God be asking you to be courageous about in your life right now? What would that require of you?

We will never regret trusting the safety net of the character of God.

Lots of voices. So many options. The pressure we feel. The fears that come knocking. The life we had planned. All of it— it’s so much— how do we find clarity at the intersections of life and amidst our daily happenings? In a world that tries to convince us Jesus is confusion, we dig into the different things that HELP and HINDER our clarity. How can we find the answers we are looking for? It is probably far simpler than we think.

This podcast finds us all in a variety of circumstances and situations, doesn't it? Some of us are in seasons of parenthood, singleness, new jobs, or big transitions. Others are navigating their through a new normal they never asked for and still are praying away.

However, what we all desperately want is to live a life that is steady and peaceful, no matter what rocks our boat-- aka, to have a trusting heart. But HOW? When life is so crazy and so uncertain and often messy, how does that even happy?

In this episode, Cleere walks through the acronym of TRUST and the different steps and reminders we can activate to live a life where we really can rest and say, "It is well with my soul"--wherever life takes us.

What is humility? How do we protect it amidst a culture that prioritizes perception and flesh that fuels our pride? What are the pitfalls of pride and what does it steal from us? How can we operate in humility in our everyday lives and let it transform our daily rhythms?

In this episode, Cleere sits down with Chad Veach, the founder and lead pastor of Zoe Church out of Los Angeles, CA. They dive into the heart behind his new book, "I Bet You Think This Book Is About You: How to Avoid the Pitfalls of Pride and Gain the Rewards of Humility."

What does it look like to follow Jesus? How do we discern His voice? How do we even know we are following Jesus and what does it require of us? In this episode, we discover that following Jesus is often simple, but it's not easy; however, it will always lead to the richest life we know. “My sheep listen to My voice; I know them and they follow Me.” -John 10:27

Just get ready— My dear friend, Megan Holland (@meganroseholland), joined me for a conversation about all the things! How do we live the life God has called us to — what does that look like? Will we always prefer the way He answers our prayers? What do we do when He doesn’t? what does it look like to commit to the deep work of holiness, especially when it’s hard?

Wherever you find yourself in life, I believe this episode is relevant for you and will encourage + challenge you greatly!

We protect what we believe is valuable, important, and significant. Jesus tells us to keep alert because the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, waiting for something to devour. Do we take this seriously? When we vigilantly protect, we victoriously prevail. When it comes to our daily lives, we must be alert to the many ways that the enemy does everything he can to take our joy, our faith, our hope, etc.

When you think of this word, what do you usually think of? Do you think about what you DO in a place, a job or any kind of atmosphere? In this episode we will dig into how God sees our "position" and how He is always positioning us for our good and His glory.

We are all in seasons of waiting…whether it be navigating a season of transition, waiting on an answer to prayer or a promise to come to pass, yearning for healing or restoration to happen or whatever it may be, we all know how hard the process of waiting can be. And yet— it is often the surest way to welcome holiness and understand what it actually means to have peace beyond understanding…because only when your preferences and timeline are challenged can your true source of trust and contentment be revealed.

In this episode, we dig into how to wait WELL. What does Jesus say about it? Why does it feel so hard sometimes? How do we prepare our hearts to wait?

No matter what your circumstances look like or where you find yourself right now, this episode will meet you right where you are.

In this episode, we will dig into three ways that we can illuminate Jesus and bring Heaven to earth.

• Our testimony
• Our trials
• How we treat others

We are leaving a legacy--let's make it a worthy one.

When it comes to everything in our lives, timing is always related. When will it happen? Am I behind in life? Should I go after this goal now? Am I ready to handle that particular thing? Why isn't my prayer getting answered right now?

Digging into what Scripture tells us about the timing of God, we are reminded of the treasures of trusting in His timing. We will grab the plow together in this episode and get to work because the reality is-- we all struggle with this sometimes, right? But if we can begin to really anchor ourselves in the consistency of His character and know that He is always, always, always on time? We can get busy living and let Him decide on the when :)

Worship is far more than just singing songs of praise; it is a posture of our hearts that affects every detail of our lives. A lifestyle! As we reflect and remember who God is, our response will be the type of gratitude that goes far beyond the surface. The more we live this lifestyle of worship, the richer and fuller our lives become. It is the catalyst to becoming alive.

Sounds dramatic to say that we are the ones who decide whether we walk in life or death but Scripture tells us time and time again— we get to choose: Will we experience life and trust God or will we invite death by reaching for control? In our daily actions, reactions, and everyday happenings, we are constantly deciding whether we invite life or death. It is easy to see how big, significant decisions are important but we fail to remember that these big decisions are often made through the foundation of a million little decisions. Who are we on a consistent basis? As we tap into this discussion, we study about the beginning story of Adam and Eve and what we can learn from the decisions that they made. Going into 2021, there is so much freedom and possibility. Let’s choose to look for. lean into, and trust the leadership of God.

Parker was involved in a boating accident in July of 2022 that nearly cost him his life, but he ended up having part of his right leg amputated, forever altering his baseball journey and life in general. His dad, Jeff, who is a physician, has been there every step of the journey as they have navigated the curveball nobody expected.

Expect to be challenged, deeply encouraged, and reminded that God uses everything for His glory and our good.

It's the story of our lives: We all fear that what we have is too little. It's not enough to truly make a difference, right? However, we see that all throughout scripture, amidst the stories of the Bible, and in our everyday experiences, it is our LITTLE + God's supernatural power that makes A LOT of difference.

And what about those little sins that we let fester, slowly letting them suck the life out of our garden? We often don't realize how these little things build and slowly become the wall that keeps us from getting to where God has asked us to go or be the people God has asked us to be.

Trust Him with your little. Dig deep-- what's your next right thing? How can you show up in little ways each day?

I don’t think many of us would walk around claiming that we aren’t living “honest lives.” But do we really understand what that means? Jesus defines honesty way differently than we do- what does He have to say? And if we truly believe that His way is best, what keeps us from doing so? In this episode, we will dig deep into several things that prevent us from honesty and several ways we can begin to practice our Heavenly Father’s definition of this word.

A new year brings renewed desire to set goals and establish better habits. But what if the secret is not found in our goals and is based on the rhythms we set for our lives? Are your current rhythms aligned with the person you hope to be and the legacy you hope to leave? If not, why? As we dig into this word, we will set up some helpful boundaries, questions, and tools to equip us to build a foundation that propels us forward and allows us to run hard after Jesus.

We were never created to run at breakneck speed or operate with unrealistic expectations setting our course; As we seek His desire for our lives and lean into what Scripture has to say, we will get honest about what we need to let go and get real about what He wants us to pick up.

Struggling with finding clarity? In a new season of life and wondering how to know the next right thing? Overwhelmed by life’s obligations or worried about how you don’t measure up? This episode is for you! I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with my good friend, Rachel Awtrey of Behind the Bliss Podcast and it so encouraged my soul! God can cover every gap. He is generous with His wisdom. His perfection really is sufficient and His kindness is unmatched. Praying for your courage and your clarity as you dig into today’s episode!

What defines our standard of beauty? Do we let our Instagram feed determine how fulfilled we are with what we see in the mirror? What does our God have to say about beauty? What would applying His standard alter about our lives?

Digging into these questions, we see that the more we behold the heart of our Father, the more beauty we see in ourselves, others, and the world around us. Only the Creator can define what is good and pure-- will we trust Him?

First up, none other than my pastor, Aaron Kennedy. He is the lead pastor of Open Door Church in Winterville, North Carolina and I have had the privilege to sit under his wisdom, guidance, and obedience for several years. We dig deep-- everything from knowing your own red flags to hearing God's voice to what it looks like to truly lead from a place of vulnerability and authenticity. Aaron is one of the most real, fun, and gracious people I know; I pray this conversation blesses you like it did me.

You probably already know Carly Pearce from her recent CMA award and her top country singles that continue to grace the charts but what you may not know is her journey of getting there. Carly tells us all about the determination it took to be hopeful in the country music scene, the lessons she has learned along the way, and what God opened her eyes to in 2020. She even graciously opened up about her recent divorce and how God’s mercy has gripped her heart in a way that even music can’t express. She is full of wisdom, bravery, and will inspire you to trust God even amidst the most broken of circumstances.  Follow Carly on Instagram here: instagram.com/carlypearce Find her latest music and one of my new favorite songs, "Show Me Around" here: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4sIl4BTo9l9KqEi0Y3RE72?si=sA2ZVJ5wRayqztHTEm1V3Q To get updates about new podcast episodes and more encouragement, follow Cleere on Instagram here: instagram.com/cleerelystated

What are we anchored to? Who are we anchored to? What happens if we don't stay anchored? What is the fruit of an anchored life?

How we answer these questions determines the direction of our lives and the safety we experience the whole way there.

Struggling to be vulnerable or let people into your pain? A little worn out by what life is asking of you and needing a reminder to keep going? Needing endurance for your current journey?Navigating the gap between what you expected and your reality? This one’s for you. In this episode, Will (my husband if you’re new here:)), dig into what life has been like since our last episode of Sledge coming home from the hospital— parent or not, I believe this episode will encourage you right where you are. The truth is, we often feel like God asks for more endurance than we have, but only God knows how strong we are with Him. I pray this episode encourages you to look for God’s hand, invite others in, and to be honest about where you are as you trust God to hold you, help you, and heal you.

How are you doing with your New year's goals and resolutions? Or what about just your everyday rhythms-- do you feel like you're already behind or defeated? Or did you get smothered by unrealistic expectations and never even begin? Either way, in this episode, we dig into the power of creating realistic, everyday rhythms that make us more like Jesus, which is ultimately the true desire behind every worthy and lasting goal.

Cleere reviews some Q&A from her Instagram stories regarding the most common answers for where people are at, what they are struggling with, and what they are needing from God right now-- and the commonalities amongst the answers are wild and comforting.

Wherever you are, whatever season you find yourself in, no matter how far off you have already gotten from the hopes you set for yourself this year, this podcast is for you.

Today is the perfect day for a reset. And the beauty of following Jesus' lead and being loved by Him? He knows how to pivot and adjust better to anyone.

Lean in...this is a good one!

When we think of the word “invest,” usually finances come to mind, right? But the truth is, with every moment that we have, we are investing our energy, time, gifts, resources, heart AND soul into something or someone! The question is: Are we building our Kingdom or His? And if we know that eternal investment far outweighs the worldly type, what is keeping us? We dig into 4 enemies of investment— ways that keep us from investing in what matters.

Life is busy and most seasons are filled with asking the question, “God, how do I do this well and not tire out?” Especially amidst the hard seasons, it is crucial to have priorities in order and rhythms in place to protect your peace and allow you to freely operate with joy. In this episode, one of my favorite authors and communicators dives into how to do this in very realistic and practical ways. Notorious for her books, “You are Free” and “Rhythms of Renewal”, her latest book, “Resilient” shows us how to walk forward in the really hard seasons— having healthy infrastructure helps us dig in when we want to give up. Don’t miss this episode— I promise it’ll encourage + challenge you!

What does it really mean to live unfiltered before Jesus? What prevents us from living unfiltered lives? What has our filtered culture and mindset done to us? How do we pursue lives of authenticity and transparency in a world obsessed with image and a culture consumed with curation + conformation? In this episode, we dig into what it really means to be unfiltered— in the way that Jesus asks + longs for us to be— the kind that produces peace and ensures our contentment + safety. We long to be known, yet we apply filters on the inside + outside of our lives, not allowing anyone, even ourselves, to really know us…how does this affect us? How do we live differently? Unfiltered: will we trust Jesus with ALL of us so that we can walk in ALL He has for us? Preorder the “Unfiltered” Bible Study here: https://amzn.to/4eYIyH5

For all of us lately, "normal" has felt a thing of the past. With the constant uncertainty looming and life's ever-changing tides, how do we maintain our peace? Our hope? Our joy? Our faith? In this episode, Cleere will talk about how her family's normal was hijacked when their son, Sledge, was born at 26 weeks old in July (hence the gap between this episode and the last!) and the decision they had to make in order to faithfully navigate life in the hospital for 119 days. With that life change, Cleere realized she had two choices: She could either react or respond. That's our choice everyday, isn't it? But the truth is, we always have a choice— when we walk by the Spirit, no matter how difficult our circumstances or how uncertain our future seems, we can always RESPOND knowing Jesus is on the clock and He is for our lives. It will change everything when we do.

How much do you believe your expectations affect your experience? Who determines your expectations? How do you change your expectations? We dig into all these questions and more.

The truth is, only Jesus can exceed our expectations. He is the only One who knows all, sees all, is aware of our need and our desires, can do anything at any moment, and is worthy of placing our eggs in His basket. Are you letting the world control your expectations or the Word? Are you struggling with your life because it's not meeting your expectations? Listen in :)
