Even Jesus Didn't Have One - Johnathan Blevins - The Daily Refill: Lenten Pause

Welcome to the Daily Refill: Lenten Pause!Today, Johnathan Blevins reflects on the lessons he learned from his years working in Catholic Parishes. We often expect-or at least desire-perfection from teams, staffs, or any type of group we have working together. The Church is no exception. However, Johnathan reminds us that we ourselves aren't even perfect, and accomplishing perfection on our own terms and expecting that from everyone else wasn't even something Jesus attained. So, release your expectations of perfection and control, work forward, and, in the end, surrender it all to the caring providence of Jesus.Hear more from Johnathan at: https://www.beardedblevins.com/Thanks for joining us today!

How's Your Lent Going So Far? - John Edwards - The Daily Refill: Lenten Pause

Welcome to the Daily Refill: Lenten Pause!Today, John Edwards asks us an important question: how's your Lent going so far? We're late in the game of Lent - it's almost over! If you find yourself at this point like many others no different than before Lent began and away from your Lenten observances, then it's probably time to take John's advice and slow down. The Lord commands us to slow down so we can actually fruitfully live life, not just be consumed by all the ongoings of life. If you're tired, weary, and feeling like you failed at Lent - that's okay. Slow down, and take this Holy Week to hear the Lord's voice in the quiet stillness calling you back.Hear more from John on The Just a Guy in the Pew Podcast: https://spokestreet.com/just-a-guy-in-the-pew/Thanks for joining us today!

Yes and - Paul Kolker - The Daily Refill: Lenten Pause

Welcome to the Daily Refill: Lenten Pause!Today, Paul Kolker reflects on his experience in improv comedy and Our Lady. Improv requires you to accept the incoming situation and build on it - to say "yes and". Our Lady, in her own way, is the perfect model of this. When she received the news she was to be the mother of God, she replied "Yes" and then built upon that answer. Whether you're in improv or meditating upon Our Lady, take this Lent to hear the Lord inviting you to say "yes" to life and then build upon it.Hear more from Paul on The BeatiDudes Podcast: https://spokestreet.com/the-beatidudes/Thanks for joining us today!
