This is the Settle Podcast with Jason and Elizabeth Settle, helping you occupy your true self in Christ, hear God in the moment, and stop striving.
Speaker A:
00:00:09
We're excited to be a part of this process with you.
Speaker A:
00:00:12
On this show, we're going to give you space to understand and see and believe who you are in Christ and what that means for your life.
Speaker B:
00:00:20
As pastors for more than 25 years, we know a lot about helping people cultivate order and beauty amidst the the muck that life is throwing their way.
Speaker B:
00:00:30
And we know what it is to struggle.
Speaker B:
00:00:32
We're going to share our personal stories with you.
Speaker A:
00:00:36
That's right, you're trying hard to do all the right things.
Speaker A:
00:00:38
But deep down you're still so exhausted, disconnected and wondering if closeness with God is always going to feel just out of reach.
Speaker A:
00:00:47
In each episode, we'll share stories to help you rest in the reconciled person you already are in Jesus Christ.
Speaker B:
00:00:54
Okay, so here's a story.
Speaker B:
00:00:55
As a seven year old, I distinctly remember trying hard to please my parents.
Speaker B:
00:01:01
I grabbed a cleaner off the stovetop and in a burst of do goodism, I proceeded to clean the bathroom mirror.
Speaker B:
00:01:08
I sprayed the solution and wiped it down only to discover that the mirror was more foggy than when I started.
Speaker B:
00:01:15
I frantically sprayed more solution.
Speaker B:
00:01:18
I wiped harder.
Speaker B:
00:01:19
It just got worse.
Speaker B:
00:01:21
All I knew to do was spray more solution and try harder.
Speaker A:
00:01:25
I know that a lot of you are trying to use a solution that's just not working.
Speaker A:
00:01:29
It's frustrating and discouraging.
Speaker A:
00:01:31
But what if I told you there's a better way?
Speaker A:
00:01:34
We're going to do that on the show.
Speaker A:
00:01:36
We're going to show you some stories.
Speaker A:
00:01:37
We're going to weave in scripture and actually create space on the show for you to slow down to listen and encounter God right where you are.
Speaker B:
00:01:50
Are you ready to stop striving, to start hearing God in the moment and occupy your true self?
Speaker B:
00:01:56
This show is for anyone craving freedom, wholeness, and a settled identity.
