Like sitting on the porch chatting with my sisters, the Grounded in Grace podcast encourages and blesses my heart! Fun, practical, authentic. Looking forward to more episodes!

Origins of our podcast
A word from Lawren:
I don't know about you, but I am not a morning person. I'm convicted that I need to start my day with time with God but it is hard enough to get out of bed for my daily cup of coffee.
In the fall of 2016, I sat on my couch cradling my Bible on my lap. My head and body were not ready to study. I just wished I could flip on the TV and watch something instantly enriching and engaging, like a talk show but with spiritual topics and God-focused content. As I finished that cup of coffee, I wished for something more with which to linger not just physically but mentally and spiritually. I wished for something to lead me easily to a space where I would feel ready to start the day with the One who gave me life.

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life. Psalm 143:8
As I approached my family with my dream, they all loved it. We sat in a coffee shop, our steaming drinks going cold and forgotten, and brainstormed logistics, how to record and design and which topics to discuss. We even ended up missing our flight back to California!
As our family is divided by time zones and many states, the TV show or YouTube ideas were not workable. Podcasting seemed the way to go. Coming into this ministry, I knew nothing about podcasting. I still feel that I know very little. But as I found one family member able to commit regularly each week to recording (thank you Alyssa!), we started on this journey and it has been such a blessing. Not only have Alyssa and I grown closer, we've been blessed by connecting with the many women loving and engaging with Grounded in Grace.

I laughed a lot, cried a little, and was completely blessed. Exactly what I needed to hear this morning. God is good. May we all be grounded in grace and do this messy, beautiful life together!

We choose relevant, easy content that most women are able to relate to. Our main goal with each episode is to pull our thoughts and minds toward God, teaching you to do the same. What can the little daily things teach us about His love, about His will for us? We believe that by doing this, we can take little steps toward grounding ourselves anew each day in His grace.
I just listened to Grounded in Grace and loved it. I laughed a lot. It's such a blessing. I am so so so happy that you ladies are doing this. I've been trying to find ted talks or podcasts about Jesus, and women that love Jesus. And now I found yours!
