Light In Your Corner
Join Lauren and Monica as they discuss how to live in and bless our surrounding culture while carrying the LIGHT that cannot be overcome.
We are two women joining Jesus in our neighborhood while navigating family, friendships, work, creativity, and chronic health issues. We don't always do things right the first time, and we have a borderline-unhealthy relationship with British mystery novels, but with God we can find the humor and the heart behind most things. Light in Your Corner is our first podcast.
Light In Your Corner
(29) It’s Christmas–we mean, Thanksgiving!
We don’t skip Thanksgiving here at Light in Your Corner!! We celebrate it, hard.
Today we have some fun talking about Thanksgiving (and Black Friday) traditions and memories. We discuss how we find joy in all the family togetherness and we take time to discuss hard things in our lives that we are thankful for.
We pray that this episode blesses your Thanksgiving week! We are thankful for you!
“See that no one repays anyone evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to everyone. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise prophecies, but test everything; hold fast what is good. Abstain from every form of evil. Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it.”
1 Thessalonians 5:15-24 ESV
