When we confront the thing we can't change, there's an invitation for it to change us. Nicole Zasowski is a marriage and family therapist, writer, and speaker.

And often, on the far side of pain we don't prefer, we find transformation we would not trade. She brings an incredible amount of wisdom, and Gabe and Rebekah believe the powerful message she carries will resonate with many listeners. Grab a copy of Nicole's book From Lost to Found today!

14 Apr 2020 | Francis Chan: True Community | 00:26:33 | |
We simply cannot be bearers of the truth and preach the word if we are not in fellowship personally with Jesus. When we are close to Him and make that room for Him, it overflows into everything and everyone around us. We cannot serve from emptiness - using our own words and thoughts to give direction to others. It is a daily rhythm of spending time with the Lord and falling more in love with Him that allows us to go out and spread the word to others, even if only in our own neighborhoods. Today's episode with Francis Chan is an inspiring conversation that serves as an important reminder for many ears right now. Chan provides us with practical ways on how to serve the areas that we have been placed in, and he prays a powerful prayer over us at the end of this conversation. Links:

16 Apr 2020 | Dream Again: Quarantine Rhythms | 00:28:27 | |
We were designed to dream, and to take responsibility for those dreams. We were made for meaning. Today's episode on the Quarantine Rhythms series is meant to ignite a spark in each of us on recognizing those hidden talents, hopes, and dreams that over the last several years or decades of our lives may have been brushed to the side. For some of us, we may immediately know what those are and be able to pinpoint exactly when it was that they got pushed to the side. For others of us, we may feel stumped and realize that we may have never been able to identify what those unique talents are. In this conversation, Gabe and Rebekah share a part of their individual stories on how discovering their talents and dreams actually led them down the pathways to where they find themselves now.

01 May 2024 | Free to Be Weak & Celebrate | 00:24:14 | |
God wants us to recognize our weakness. When we acknowledge our weakness, it allows us to welcome other people into our lives that God ordained to be in our lives because we can’t do this on our own. In this episode of the Spring of Freedom series, Gabe and Rebekah reflect on the idea of weakness, surrender and celebration.

27 Mar 2020 | Take A Walk: Quarantine Rhythms | 00:24:29 | |
This week on the Quarantine Series, we chose to focus on a topic that may seem simple, but it is crucial right now. We are all feeling a little stir crazy during this uncharted time of being separated from others and staying home. However, this doesn't mean that we can't get outside and take a walk. Walking is critical for the restoration of our mental health, creativity, and productivity. We want to challenge you to make walking a priority. There is great mental and physical relief in getting to walk alongside your spouse (or the person you are in quarantine with), as we face this together. Are you ready to join the Rhythms for Life Learning Community? Sign up today! Each of these weekly rhythms can be found in Rebekah's newest book, Rhythms of Renewal. Click HERE to get your copy!

27 Oct 2020 | Connect + Create: Gabe and Rebekah Lyons | 00:32:35 | |
Last week’s episode discussed the input rhythms (rest and restore). This week, Gabe and Rebekah emphasize the importance of the output rhythms (connect and create). When our bodies and minds are rested and restored, we are then able to go out and empower others and utilize the gifts and talents that God has uniquely designed for each of us. After all, being filled up isn't just for your benefit, but for the benefit of those around you. As we continue to navigate an unknown season that could easily ignite worry and fear, it’s crucial to intentionally connect with our people and continue dreaming. There is a sacredness of unity that happens when we assemble together. Take the time identify the things that make your heart come alive and then go do those things! LINKS:

We all experience hurt in our lives, and how we respond to this feeling can lead to either resentment or freedom and healing. In today’s episode, Dr. Chip Dodd helps us understand how the feeling of hurt is a catalyst to all the other feelings. Understanding how to respond when hurt can change the trajectory of our closest to relationships. We’ll also hear from Danielle Strickland, author of The Other Side of Hope, on how to avoid the cynicism that can develop from hope and instead, allow hope to heal us from past hurt.

01 Dec 2020 | Finding Soul Rest: Curtis Zackery | 00:26:11 | |
This is a year where it's safe to assume we are all in need of deep rest. Not the kind of rest you get from kicking back and watching your favorite TV show, but actual soul rest. This week, Curtis Zackery "CZ", joins the Rhythms for Life podcast for a conversation on how to achieve that kind of rest we are all craving this season. We live in a society that demands overcommitments and attempts to stretch individuals as far as they can. What kind of rest is it that God wants us to experience? Why is it so important? Gabe and Rebekah hope the tools that CZ equips us with in this conversation allow you the opportunity to make some real changes to your routine as we strive to end this year well. CZ's goal is to invite people into the story of God, so they feel seen, known, and loved. His recent book, Finding Soul Rest, is available now!

In this episode, Gabe and Rebekah Lyons are joined by author and pastor John Mark Comer to delve into the concept of discipleship as "apprenticeship" to Jesus. John explains that apprenticeship is a more comprehensive and embodied approach to learning that includes being with Jesus, becoming like Him, and doing what He did. They discuss how modern culture often disconnects us from physical experiences and how practices like gardening, cooking, and observing the Sabbath help us reconnect with both creation and God. Tune in as they offer encouragement to integrate small, meaningful habits that help to slow down life and create space for God's presence in the midst of a busy world. Resources
