The (in)courage Podcast

The (in)courage Podcast

Welcome to the (in)courage podcast! We are all different ages, in different life stages, and we come from different cultures and churches, but our common thread is the hope of Jesus. Each weekday we meet you right where you are as one of our writers shares what’s going on in her everyday life and how God’s right in the middle of it all. We bring our joys and struggles equally so that you can feel less alone, and be empowered by the hope Jesus gives. We hope you’ll bring us along with you on your morning walks, driving to the grocery store, waiting in the preschool pickup line, alone in your kitchen, or as you wind down for the evening. Wherever you join us, you’re welcome here, and we’re honored to be a part of your day. Read our daily posts at incourage.me, and find us everywhere on social @incourage. The (in)courage podcast is brought to you by DaySpring. For over 50 years, DaySpring has created quality cards, books, and gifts that help you live your faith. Find out more at DaySpring.com.

"Come to Jesus as you are. Come frazzled, distracted, or weighed down. Don’t hold back what’s really in your heart. Don’t wait for the noise to die down or for life to feel manageable. Bring your worries. Bring your overwhelm."

"God sees you. God calls your name. You may not get a burning bush, but God is still in this business of pursuing us, of interrupting us. God is still stirring our curiosity and surprising us with grace. We just have to pay attention."

"Hospitality didn’t happen around my kitchen table that afternoon — it happened in a fluorescent-lit DMV hallway. And it reminded me that the heart of biblical hospitality is about being present, noticing the people God places in our path, and extending kindness right where we are."

"When I read about Jesus and His ministry in the New Testament, I imagine Him sitting at the table like this one with tax collectors, the poor, blind, and bleeding -- women, children, and sinners like you and me. Jesus – the Living Water and Bread of Life – embodies welcome, inviting us to come to Him even when we are hurting and especially when we are hungry."
