Hey Sis! đď¸
Todayâs episode is a call to commit everythingâyour plans, your desires, your family, your futureâinto the hands of the Lord, trusting that He will help you. Weâre beginning our study in Psalm 37:5â9, a wisdom psalm written later in Davidâs life, reminding us that Godâs Word can be trusted. As David testifies, when we delight in the Lord, He not only shapes the desires of our heart but also helps us live in the security of His guidance. If youâve ever wondered what it truly means for God to give you the desires of your heart, this passage will help clarify that itâs not about wish-fulfillment, but about transformationâGod placing His desires within us as we delight in Him.
Weâre also wrapping up Day 7 of Free of Me: Why Life Is Better When Itâs Not All About You by Sharon Hodde Miller, with a powerful reflection from Philippians 2. This final devotional reminds us of the unexpected joy that comes through dying to self. Our insecurities and failures point us to the truth that we were never meant to carry the weight of the worldâonly God can do that. In surrender, humility, and âsmallness,â we discover the true freedom that Christ offers. If youâve been striving, comparing, or feeling like youâre not enough, this episode will help you rest in the joy of letting go and letting God be God.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
