Clearing Your Internal Clutter (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you’re at all like me, most days you really do want to connect with the Lord.But….there’s stuff that gets in the way. Sometimes that’s the schedule. Most of the time (not always), that’s fixable. I just need to make some different decisions. But sometimes I make the time and discover there are obstacles in my head and heart that keep me from drawing near and drinking deeplyObstacles like busy thoughts, anxious thoughts, small distractions, discouragement, frustration, rehearsing old stuff fro
Anyone Thirsty? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Isaiah 55 starts with this great invitation: “Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters”Of course that “thirst” could come in all sorts of different forms:→Exhausted after a big push at work or in your personal life.→Things going well externally but internally feeling restless or unsettled.→The things that have worked to keep you relatively satisfied to this point in your life are no longer working for you.

This month’s Greenhouse Retreat sits with David’s fabulous Psalm 16. I love Psalm 16:2:I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.”David is radically grou
Fighting For Contentedness (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Contentment is such a great word. Maybe it comes easy to you. It doesn’t for me.This month’s Greenhouse Retreat is built around Psalm 16, a passage that the Lord has used many times over the years to call me back to contentment in him and his gifts.The vast majority of the energy in our culture is pushing you to be more and more discontent (that’s how they get you to buy stuff). But few things will undermine your own fruitfulness more than being stuck in a discontent-saturated body, heart, mind,
