How to Read the Bible Without a Theology Degree (& Actually Enjoy It) | Faith Womack (Bonus Episode)

How to Read the Bible Without a Theology Degree (& Actually Enjoy It) | Faith Womack (Bonus Episode)

For those that are new around here, I release bonus episodes that serve a niche part of my audience, I have listeners of all faith backgrounds that listen to the podcast. This episode is coming from a christian perspective so if that’s something that doesn’t fit what you’re looking for, check out the other episodes that dropped this week or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation that you don’t want to miss!

Today’s guest says the Bible was never meant to be boring—it’s that we’ve forgotten how to read it with curiosity and context. Author and content creator Faith Womack, founder of Bible Nerd Ministries and author of No More Boring Bible Study, is on a mission to help everyday Christians rediscover Scripture as a living story, not a rulebook. In this episode, we talk about breaking free from spiritual burnout, understanding literary genres in the Bible, and how to bring your faith back to life—without needing a theology degree. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from Scripture or unsure where to start, this conversation will remind you that God’s Word was written for you, not just scholars.

Bonus Episode: Social Media, Mental Health & Intentionality with Tara Clark (@ModernMomProbs)

Order Your Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living & Parenting with Simplicity----In today’s bonus episode with Tara Clark (@modernmomprobs), we discuss intentionality and mental health - specifically when it comes to social media. Modern technology is not going to change (if anything, it’ll only capture more areas of our lives.) It’s up to us to MODIFY our behavior. While social media can provide an escape, connect us to friends across the globe and become a useful resource for income, it can quickly become an addiction that takes us away from our priorities, and most importantly, our children. It’s something most of us realize but have a hard time actively combating. What do you do to set boundaries and protect mental health in this area? Show Notes for Bonus Episode: Social Media, Mental Health & IntentionalityEnjoy this Podcast?Learning how you can get rid of clutter and live an intentional and purposeful life has never been this simple.

EP179: Creating an Eco-Friendly Playroom with Rachel Classi

Order Your Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living & Parenting with Simplicity----Any family with children will experience their fair share of toys throughout the years. It’s inevitable that some will slip in that have a short longevity; however, being intentional in this area isn’t as hard as it seems and simple strategies can help foster diverse play experiences for children without filing our playroom with junk. Join me today as I talk with founder of Tiny Earth Toys, Rachel Classi. She’ll discuss scientific studies that discuss the benefits of minimal toys in the playroom, how the choices we make about what toys to buy impact our child's play and the environment, what we know about how the toy industry is playing a role in the plastic crisis and tips for parents about how to take the power struggle out of gifting to align with your family values.Show Notes for EP179: Creating an Eco-Friendly PlayroomEnjoy this Podcast?Learning how you can get rid of clutter and live an intentional and purposeful life has never been this simple.

Order Your Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living & Parenting with Simplicity----Are you a member of Costco or Sam’s Club? Wholesale retail stores such as this are able to sell their products for much cheaper than local businesses; however, the question I pose to you and my guest today, Carly Adams, is: is bulk shopping anti-minimalist? There is a certain affordability when it comes to big chains; however, big-box retail stores also promote consumerism due to the sheer volume of products for sale. As we work through this topic, I’m sure you’ll build your own pros and cons list to see whether it’s the right choice for your family.Show Notes for EP177: Is Bulk Shopping Anti-Minimalist?Enjoy this Podcast?Learning how you can get rid of clutter and live an intentional and purposeful life has never been this simple.
