Today’s message will be offered by Bethany Shipley:  “Romanticizing Our Real Lives” 

We live in a culture that teaches us to enjoy life later—after things settle down, after we fix ourselves, after the chaos passes. But what if the life you’re waiting to enjoy is the one already happening?

In this talk, Bethany challenges the idea that a meaningful life requires perfect conditions. Through real stories and practical reframes, she explores how to romanticize your actual life—the busy days, the unfinished rooms, the emotional seasons, the moments that don’t match the vision board.

I’ll be offering 3 songs, all among my followers’ favorites: How Can I Keep from Singing, May I Suggest (by the wonderful Susan Werner), and This Joy.

All are welcome! Come and enjoy!
