Waking up to your child's unexpected late-night escapades can leave you feeling like you're living in a sitcom, and this episode kicks off with just that. Imagine my surprise when my son Caleb turned our home into his personal campground, complete with a flashlight and a splash! As we segue from these chuckles, we tackle the juxtaposition of friendship and babysitting duties on the lovers' holiday, Valentine's Day, and get hyped for Super Bowl fever with Reba McIntyre's headlining performance and the wild world of prop betting.
Strap in for a rollercoaster of emotions as we lay down our Super Bowl predictions, sharing the edge-of-your-seat anticipation for a showdown between the Chiefs and the 49ers. The spotlight shines on Brock Purdy's underdog saga, inspiring us all with his leap from "Mr. Irrelevant" to a championship contender. But it's not all about football; we take a moment to reflect on poignant biblical passages that stir deep personal connections, discussing how the grace found in Second Corinthians parallels our life's trials and triumphs.
Our heartfelt exchange closes on a powerful note, navigating through the turbulence of unmet expectations and the quest for joy amid life's curveballs. Drawing from the wisdom of Habakkuk, we muse on maintaining joy despite the barren fig trees of our lives—be it health setbacks, creative ruts, or personal storms. Join us as we share stories of steadfast joy and the peace that comes from surrendering control, encouraging you to find your footing on high places, whatever the terrain.

Speaker 1:
Hey everyone, welcome to the Plugged In podcast.
Speaker 2:
Hello, welcome back.
Speaker 1:
We are deep into season two. This is episode number 17. Overall, Nate, you got left out there.
Speaker 3:
I know, I was expecting music. Oh my headphones?
Speaker 1:
Oh yeah, there's none. This is one of those shows.
Speaker 3:
I just sit near like hey.
Speaker 1:
This is one of those shows where the music gets added after what it's set up in real time.
Speaker 3:
Sorry, Matt.
Speaker 1:
Well guys, happy February. Yeah, it is already February 2024. I almost said 2014. That's not true.
Speaker 2:
I thought you were saying February 24th and I was like what month are you in?
Speaker 1:
February 2024,. Home of Black History Month, yes, home of the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2:
Yes.
Speaker 1:
Home of Valentine's Day. Yeah, groundhog Day, I wouldn't even thought about that. Thank you, nate, but best holiday Maybe the one that's most front center of my mind is Mackenzie's first birthday. Oh nice, it's coming up in February.
Speaker 2:
I hear that's crazy.
Speaker 1:
I know it's wild, goes fast. So I have an opening story. I know we always talk on our show notes. We need to stop talking so much about our kids, but I have a kid's story.
Speaker 2:
Give it to me.
Speaker 1:
OK, so for Christmas, caleb, of all things asked for, he wanted flashlights. I love him so much, so much, and when we really pressed him we were just like really Like, do you want anything else? Caleb looked at us and he's like yes, I want two flashlights.
Speaker 2:
So for.
Speaker 1:
Christmas, Caleb got these four little LED, little tiny mini flashlights. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:
So, just to set up the story. So for a lot of nights when I put him to bed I'll climb into his bed and I'll lay on my back and we'll play flashlights, and so we'll be staring up at the ceiling and making shadows and doing all those kind of games and stuff. So the other day I walk into Caleb's room in the morning and when his sound machine goes off and the green light turns on immediately, he's like mommy, daddy, I'm awake. I mean, that's just his, that's what he does. So I come in there and it's a little bit more subdued on this morning, and so I'm just like hey.
Speaker 1:
Caleb good morning, buddy, like what's going on? No response. Caleb, good morning. Can I have a hug? No response.
Speaker 1:
He's just kind of like he's moving really slow. No, he's awake, he's looking right at me and so I thought this was really weird. So I'm like, well, ok, well, maybe I can do something, maybe we can play, and he'll get happy Like what's going on. So I go ahead and I'm like I'm going to play flashlights with him in the morning. We're going to throw a curveball. So I slowly crawl into his bed and while I crawl into his bed he crawls out and I'm like so I'm like really confused and I'm like Caleb, do you want to play flashlights? And I lay fully on my back in his bed, get the flashlights and I'm like Caleb, do you want to play flashlights? And by now he's out of the bed. He's standing in the middle of his room, Still hasn't talked yet, looks right at me and says Daddy, I peed.
Speaker 1:
And at that moment I realized that I am like land laying full on my back in a bed full of pee.
Speaker 2:
Happy morning yeah.
Speaker 1:
Human sponge Matlon. Wow, human sponge. Yeah, so Wow, that's. It's not quite my rant, but that's like, that's awesome. Kids are on the forefront of my mind, yeah.
Speaker 2:
Well, that's Jackson. Right now he's in this kick. When he I mean from birth to current he's never had drinks in his bed, but all of a sudden he needs water every night at bed. But because of that, every night the pull up is like overflowing. And so he comes. He'll barge into our room at 6.30 and he's like mommy, daddy, I'm awake but I'm wet. I'm like, oh, just processing life, oh, kids.
Speaker 3:
Yeah, arting is an adventure for sure.
Speaker 1:
Oh children. Well, we said Valentine's Day is coming up. I literally made the cardinal sin of Valentine's Day not to my spouse. But so Heather and I are making Valentine's Day plans and I asked a single person to babysit for us on Valentine's.
Speaker 3:
You didn't you are heartless bro.
Speaker 1:
No, I said to my wife as soon as I pressed send on the text message asking them. I was just like oh no, I feel really awkward sending this, like that's terrible. They agreed they're a wonderful person, but they did call me out in the text message thread. They were just like oh sure ask the single.
Speaker 2:
Ask the single person.
Speaker 3:
Yeah, I feel bad though. Hey, on one of our first ever episodes, you shared how you went to Fazzoli's in college, either our first or second.
Speaker 2:
The first episode. Yeah, but you've graduated from Fazzoli's Well the.
Speaker 1:
Plugged In podcast has graduated from that story. We've come a long ways, I know Well, moving on in our thoughts today, nate, you have something for us. So the Super Bowl is coming up, it is, and this podcast does not condone gambling.
Speaker 2:
No Sports betting, not at all.
Speaker 1:
But every year a popular thing comes out called Super Bowl props. Yeah, and it's just a fun way to think about the game and it's not always necessarily about the yards and the touchdowns. But go for it, man.
Speaker 3:
Yeah, so what we were going to do together here is kind of make some predictions based on some interesting prop categories that I found while searching the World Wide Web. World Wide. Web as it pertains to the Super Bowl, and so I'm just going to jump right in. The fabulous Reba McIntyre is singing, the fabulous the fabulous. Fabulous Is singing the Star Spangled Banner this year. I want to keep track of our predictions as we go, and then we'll revisit this at a later episode.
Speaker 2:
Do you want me to keep track? Sure, sure.
Speaker 3:
Now the question is do you think that Reba will sing longer than one minute and 30 seconds or shorter than one minute?
Speaker 2:
and 30 seconds.
Speaker 1:
How long is it ordinarily it's all over the place, but my like judge of this is usually if it's a classical musician who's been asked to sing, like if it's a Renee Fleming or like an opera singer or something like that. They're usually playing to a recorded track or like an orchestra.
Speaker 2:
That's true.
Speaker 1:
Those are usually on the shorter times, if you get someone else that gets up there and is just like, oh, that's all the rest, artistic voices.
Speaker 2:
That's awesome, can you? That was the beginning.
Speaker 3:
Call on them all. You should sing it. Yes, I should go. Yeah, those usually go like three minutes.
Speaker 1:
One minute and 30 seconds. I'm going to take the over.
Speaker 3:
I was going to go over as well.
Speaker 2:
I was going to go over. All right, can we all go over? Is this a rule?
Speaker 3:
Yep, no, there's no rule. The rule is let's see how many we get at the end.
Speaker 2:
Are you going to make?
Speaker 1:
a graphic for this.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, I'll make a graphic.
Speaker 1:
You just got put to work there. Sorry, I did not mean to do that.
Speaker 2:
I have to say I see you just kidding.
Speaker 3:
All right. Next question how many times during the game?
Speaker 2:
during the game During the game Will.
Speaker 3:
CBS show Taylor Swift in her suite.
Speaker 1:
OK, so this is a direct correlation to how many good plays Travis Kelsey makes.
Speaker 3:
Yeah.
Speaker 1:
So yeah, and it's usually like so, if he has 10 catches, they'll cut to her five times. Yeah, that's how I kind of think about it. So I'm going with. My prediction for the game is that Travis Kelsey has seven catches, one touchdown. So I'm going to say you guys are so specific.
Speaker 3:
No, I'm well yes. Advanced analytics Not like I've thought about this at all, but oh, my goodness, is there an over over number. So yeah, sorry, the over is more than more than five.
Speaker 1:
I got really. It's more than five or less than five, wow. That's right around my like.
Speaker 2:
That was right in your wheelhouse, if I was seven catches with a touchdown.
Speaker 1:
half of that is four. I'm going to go what I'm going to go under five.
Speaker 3:
Ok, so this doesn't count after the game, this is only during the game. Ok, fair enough.
Speaker 2:
I feel like I just want to be. I want to be the other person to say over.
Speaker 3:
OK, I'm just going to say over as well, OK.
Speaker 2:
Matt said under I'm saying over.
Speaker 1:
I'm the classic loser on this podcast.
Speaker 2:
Wow.
Speaker 1:
No, but I mean it happens. We play a lot of games.
Speaker 2:
I mean, you won the first thing, didn't you?
Speaker 1:
I don't think so. I don't remember. We all have a role to play. What did I say Over? We all have a role to play.
Speaker 2:
Oh, my goodness this is good.
Speaker 1:
I'm the host Over five.
Speaker 3:
OK, what's the next one? All right, all right. Will the camera Well look? Will the cameras capture Taylor and Kelsey kissing after the game? Yes or no? Taylor and Travis? Travis, kelsey, let's.
Speaker 1:
Yes, of course yeah yes okay, they're gonna. They will go out of their way to make sure they're kissing. Okay, yeah.
Speaker 3:
All right, we all say yes.
Speaker 2:
Yep, okay, oh wait, hold on, oh kiss, okay, go ahead.
Speaker 3:
Okay, what company will air the first commercial following kickoff?
Speaker 1:
man, this is usually like a it's a Budweiser. No, I was gonna say it's usually one off the beaten path, like it's, not like a super well-known. I don't even know if I could make a Like. I feel like the last couple super bowls it was like crypto crazy.
Speaker 3:
It was true.
Speaker 1:
And it was companies you never heard of before, but they're all trying to make the mark. I don't, I don't really have a guess like I'm gonna. I don't I'll say E-Trade, I'm just gonna that's not off the beaten path, but like they, baby. Yeah, they seem to have so many Super Bowl commercials, yeah.
Speaker 2:
I don't know, I Don't know. I'm just gonna say or what's the?
Speaker 1:
what's the Jesus commercial movement?
Speaker 2:
He's one of us, yeah what.
Speaker 1:
This is so. It's not great marketing, because none of us can remember, because I feel like I only see it at the super, he gets us, he gets us yeah.
Speaker 3:
Yeah, they might have some commercials.
Speaker 2:
I'm thinking hello fresh. I don't know why. That's what I'm going with.
Speaker 1:
Next.
Speaker 3:
I'll say Pfizer.
Speaker 1:
Pfizer.
Speaker 3:
Okay, all right. Um, let's see how many. Oh sorry, here we go. Will the game go into overtime? Simply yes or no? No no, I'll say no as well. All right, almost there. Almost there, that's good for the Gatorade bath following the game. Oh my gosh what color will the Gatorade be?
Speaker 1:
Hmm, good question.
Speaker 3:
Or you could also choose no Gatorade, it'd be water or whatever.
Speaker 2:
I'm going orange, I'm going purple. Mmm because the logo is purple. Right, I'm going purple.
Speaker 3:
Hmm, that's a good strategy. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go yellow, like yellow slash lime green.
Speaker 2:
Neat yellow.
Speaker 3:
Okay, what color is that buddy?
Speaker 1:
So, you can't take two.
Speaker 3:
We're going yellow. I'm green is, I think, the flavor I don't know, all right, who will be the MVP of the game.
Speaker 1:
I don't want this to happen, but it's gonna be Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, it is.
Speaker 3:
You have no faith in the in the Niners.
Speaker 1:
It's he. So it's either gonna be Patrick Mahomes or Christian McCaffrey. Those are my two. Those are my two picks. I'm I'm pulling for the 49ers. I'd like them to win, but if you have to have me on the record, I'm saying Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 2:
Mahomes.
Speaker 3:
Mahomes that's your choice too.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, I'm going to homey's.
Speaker 3:
Yeah, I'll go, patrick Mahomes as well.
Speaker 2:
Wow. We sink up on a lot of these here's the delineation.
Speaker 3:
final score prediction Good word. I mean good word buddy.
Speaker 1:
Never I've never, used that studying final score. Yeah with a winner. Okay, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. Chiefs 28, 49ers 24.
Speaker 3:
That's really close to what I had in my mind.
Speaker 2:
I'm gonna go Chiefs 31, 49ers 28.
Speaker 1:
Oh, wait what was Matt.
Speaker 2:
Wait, matt, say yours again 28 to 24 Chiefs okay.
Speaker 1:
And I think it's like it'll come down to the end where they have to score touchdown. So they're like driving at the end of the game. Somehow the drive stalls out at, like the you know, the 15 yard line. But I think it will be a. I think it will be a good ending, a good game.
Speaker 3:
Cool, we'll see. I was thinking Chiefs 27, 49ers 24, so only.
Speaker 2:
You guys are close and you said Chiefs, I did say Chiefs.
Speaker 1:
So how do you so? Let me hear your prediction on. How is that ending? So the Chiefs make a defensive stand to hold the 49ers and win the game, or Patrick Mahomes Drives down scores a go ahead, I Feel, goal or touchdown. So it means that they were either down by four or they were tied. Yeah, yeah, I'm really ripping your score apart here.
Speaker 3:
Oh no, I'm think I'm thinking defensive stand. I think it's gonna come down to Brock Party has the ball in his hands and doesn't convert a crucial fourth down or something.
Speaker 1:
It's tragic yeah it's tragic, I think it's like it's borderline mean. So in the NFL, if you're the last person drafted in the NFL draft, yeah, everyone calls you mr Irrelevant. Oh, story of my life, and that's Brock Purdy. No, this is the quarterback of the 49ers in the Super Bowl. His nickname is mr Irrelevant because he was the last person drafted in the draft like overall overall. Like so in the seventh round, the very last player drafted. Now there are some players in the NFL that are on rosters that are undrafted right.
Speaker 1:
But this is of the actual draft. He was the last pick yeah, tom Brady was famously a sixth round pick. Julian Edelman was a seventh round pick, yeah, but I don't know if I've ever heard of anyone this prominent like the last pick in the NFL the starting quarterback of a potential Championship team.
Speaker 3:
That's pretty awesome.
Speaker 2:
It's pretty pretty cool, that is cool, yeah, all right, good story.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, so we got our Super Bowl props locked in and Larita is now going to make a fabulous Graphic that will be out on social media. You'll have to chime in with what you think's gonna happen in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1:
Yes we're going a little bit different direction with the plugged-in podcast today. Rather than do one devotional thought, I think we're each gonna take a turn talking about a verse, a passage, something that has been speaking to us recently, and We'll all kind of chime in and keep our comments brief and we'll get you on your way. Today, here at the plugged-in podcast, we're going for the the short form podcast today. But who wants to go first?
Speaker 2:
I can go first All right.
Speaker 2:
I think my last, the last Episode, the devotional I did was based off of second Corinthians 12 and that's just been like repeatedly showing up in my devotions and Just in my mind and so that verse again Is really just sticking out to me recently. And again it says From second Corinthians three times Paul saying three times I beg the Lord to take it away. And each time he said my grace is all you need. My power works best In weakness. So now that, so now I am glad to boast about my weakness, so the power of Christ can work through me.
Speaker 2:
And again he's talking about that thorn in his flesh and the trials that you know. He was shipwrecked and yeah, in and all of the things and imprisoned and all. He had so many thorns and Overcame so much and literally became a new person but still had this nagging thorn in his side that the Lord would not remove. But it didn't stop him from being faithful and didn't stop him from, you know, being like testified and stop him from being who God had called him to be so why does that speak to you?
Speaker 2:
I just think recently I've been Going through just difficulties with like with health and questions and and feeling like I continually just have to fight to advocate for myself. I just got a call yesterday that my doctor that I'm supposed to be seeing is now herself out on medical leave so.
Speaker 2:
I can't get Things renewed and things moving that I need because she's, you know, now in a position of weakness. So it's kind of re sorted things. But I remember getting that call and I was like why Can one thing go right? You know, it's just that disappointment and feeling like, just feeling that disappointment over and over again and then being upset at the position I've put myself. You know, it's just that spiral.
Speaker 2:
It's the thorn and just reminding myself to continue to be faithful, to continue to Allow my weakness to be, you know, strength in the Lord's hand and just knowing that he's gonna give me the strength to endure. You know the current situation, so that just literally just keeps. It was in my devotions this morning. If anyone does, the first five, yeah. But then there's this quote that said when we feel completely helpless, god's grace will give us the strength to make it through every trial we face. So just a Continual reminder.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, and it just keeps showing up in my face and so clearly I need it. But just the reminder for me.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, I can go next. Okay, so I said this to you guys off the air last night, when I'm a I'm a creative person, I'm a brainstormer, I'm super analytical, I like to try to envision things that don't exist and then figure out how to make it happen. Yeah, but along the way, like I have to ask so many questions about what could go right, what could go wrong, is it worth doing this, is it worth doing that? So I feel like I constantly fill my brain with all of this like strategy, and sometimes that can be overwhelming and in just a Negative way. Yeah, it's just like before I even start, I've thought of the 45 things that could go wrong and why I shouldn't even start.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, and so one of the things this is so ironic Because I literally was saying to you guys so we've been talking about the plugged-in podcast and we've been talking about Listenership and how we should deliver the podcast to people, and so I jokingly went on tiktok and I typed in the word devotional and what we were talking about off the air is I would type in the word devotional and you'd have these people recording video in their cars of Like the Bible apps, like devotional of the day.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, so simple.
Speaker 1:
Yeah and like, but other people's material yeah, and they'd have like seven hundred thousand views. And so I was just like here we are, like you know, we put effort into this and you guys have written these like beautiful devotionals and it's so like confusing to me, like wow. So anyways, I Did it again. I went on there just to kind of you know, just kind of be like snarky, and I listened to one of the devotionals and I was like, oh my gosh, I just got like mega convicted, right. So here's the devotional. I'm gonna share it with you because it like smacked me in the face. But the reference verses here, our first Thessalonians, 5, 17 and Psalm 62, 2 through 5, tell me if this sounds like anybody.
Speaker 1:
Rest in me, my child, give your mind a break from planning and trying to anticipate what will happen. Pray continually, asking my spirit to take charge of the details of this day. Remember that you are on a journey with me. When you try to peer into the future and plan for every possibility, you ignore your constant companion who sustains you moment by moment. As you gaze Anxiously into the distance, you don't ever feel the strong grip of my hand holding yours. How foolish you are. My child. Remembrance of me is a daily discipline. Never lose sight of my presence with you. This will keep you resting in me all day, every day. Wow, I was like no way. Here's like the very crazy.
Speaker 1:
It's like the very devotionals that I make fun of, because they basically go viral. Yeah, with like very little effort right and here. I was like listening to their Content and like and being like wow, it really applies to my life.
Speaker 2:
I needed. I needed to hear this today, and that translation is just so spot whatever.
Speaker 1:
Planning into the future for every possibility, like so. That's my thought for today, because I'm sure there's other people out there that have similar mindset, where, if you're trying to accomplish something, if you're trying to plan something, you're just the type of person that can't Leave any stone unturned. Yep and I think sometimes that can be a poisonous mindset yeah, because you're Forgetting to trust, right, the person that put you on that journey in the first place yeah so that's kind of my thought for the day, my conviction for the day that's like it was pretty Pointed.
Speaker 1:
I literally went on like tick-tock to make fun of it more and I was like, oh man, this is, this is me to a tee here.
Speaker 3:
We go. God was reading your text thread.
Speaker 1:
No, it's true.
Speaker 3:
It's awesome I've been thinking a lot about.
Speaker 3:
Obviously, with the start of the new year, there comes a lot of expectations, and, I think, expectations For myself that I set, and maybe just experts expectations about how the world around me should be and how life in general should be, and it, and a lot of times those expectations that I prop up for myself don't always come to fruition, and I think in the moments where that happens, we can become bitter, we can become angry, we can become resentful or we can maybe lean in a bit closer to what God's trying to teach us in the midst of that.
Speaker 3:
And so one passage that's been on my heart recently comes from Habakkuk, chapter 3, verses 17 through 19. And it says this even if the fig tree does not blossom and there are no grapes on the vines, if the olive trees fail to give fruit and the fields produce no food, if the flocks die far from the fold and there are no cattle in the stalls, then I will still rejoice in the eternal. I will rejoice in the God who saves me. The eternal Lord is my strength. He has made my feet like the feet of a deer and he allows me to walk on high places. And I was thinking about that passage in just like a contemporary context.
Speaker 3:
And if we were to change some of those words around, if I was to take the even if dot dot dot and change that out, maybe it sounds something like even if I wasn't able to afford this month's rent and life continues to get more expensive, if my relationships fall apart and the world is hurled into division and conflict, if my family gets sick and I feel all alone, would I still have the strength to say God, you are my joy, you are the one who saves me?
Speaker 3:
And I love how that passage ends that he allows me to walk on high places, because I think it's in those moments where discouraging things happen and negative things happen. I know in my own life I can spiral and I can walk in some very low places in my own mind and maybe with the people around me. But the fact that the Lord continues to lift us up out of that and wants us to see his face in the midst of the situations in our world, it's been a challenge. It's a challenge to me, it's a conviction to me, and I looked up this passage in the message and this response that God wants from our hearts was really just a cool visual. It says I'm turning cartwheels of joy to my Savior God, counting on his rule to prevail. And can I honestly say that, even if things don't go my way, I'm turning cartwheels of joy, not all the time, no, actually very, very few times, when I say, yeah, I'm turning cartwheels of joy.
Speaker 1:
I don't know could ever be turning cartwheels of joy, I physically couldn't.
Speaker 3:
Yeah. But just this I don't know this assurance and this piece of heart, knowing that, even if things don't turn out the way that you envision them to turn out, that doesn't mean that God is not in the midst of it and, at the end of the day, His nature is secure and unchanging and immovable and he continues to rejoice over us and just desires for us to place our trust and our hope in Him. And so just an encouragement that's been on my heart and mind, that I feel that many people can resonate with today.
Speaker 1:
That's going on the table. Oh boy, I know I didn't. This is not in the show notes. Let's wrap up the podcast today. Give me once again your biblical thought in one sentence.
Speaker 2:
I'll start while you guys are thinking yeah, you go first.
Speaker 1:
But in the midst of your planning and busyness and stress, don't forget to rely on God, because he brought you here in the first place and he's already prepared the way for you. Rest in all those two senses.
Speaker 3:
I was like adding word countless countless, countless.
Speaker 2:
Okay, mine would be something to the effect of when you feel just when you feel like you've been hitting the same wall over and over again, when you feel like you've been persistent in praying, be assured that the Lord is for you and he's working in the midst of that which you feel like is insurmountable Period.
Speaker 3:
I would just period, Even if life sucks. Even if life is not going the way you planned. Look to the one who was always faithful and true. Place your joy and trust in Him and you'll never be disheartened. I love it.
Speaker 2:
Cartwheels. Cartwheels of joy, let's go If there's anyone at the stable who can cartwheel it's.
Speaker 1:
I do the cartwheels off here. We have to turn the cameras off.
Speaker 2:
There have been times where you two have one has started dancing, the other has danced, but then every time I get my camera out it ends fast.
