Voices In My Head (The Rick Lee James Podcast)

Lifestyle Blogger and TV Personality Issues Clarion Call for Christian Women Seeking Balance Between Career and Family
 
Orlando, Fla.– Work, home, and family. Can Christian Women really do it all? Leadership lifestyle blogger and media personality, Caitlyn Scaggs has good news for readers: You don’t have to lose yourself when faced with the pressure to choose between what appears to be mutually exclusive options.
Instead, she champions a new approach―how to find balance between seemingly opposing forces and live out what you were created to do. In her book,
Worth It And Wonderful: Inspiration for Christian Women To Live Bravely and Boldly.
 Scaggs addresses the real pressures, both internal and external, that Christian women face when it comes to making choices between family or personal aspirations.
Filled with practical steps and insights, Scaggs provides women with a blueprint on how to thrive no matter where their path takes them. With her unique and powerful guiding voice, she helps women fully embrace who God calls them to be
including:
 
      How to overcome the challenges of balancing work, life, and family
      The importance of living strategically and spontaneously
      How mental, physical, and soul self-care honors God
      Why happiness is a temporary state of being and the key to finding lasting joy regardless of the life season
 
“It’s up to you to own and embrace the wonderful complexities of who God made you to be. Remember, you are a masterpiece,” writes Scaggs. “Fall in love with the idea of seeing your life as a beautiful mosaic, lovingly and intentionally crafted. It honors the masterpiece composed of disparate experiences, pain, tears, laughter, and victory all brought together to make something meaningful.”
 
Filled with motivational callouts, practical takeaways, and actionable steps Worth it and Wonderful invites readers to apply the insight shared to their own lives. “Remember, nothing of significance is easy or comes quickly,” declares Scaggs. “This type of work can challenge deep-rooted beliefs—some of which you may realize are lies that took root a long time ago, but as your identity and purpose become rooted in who God says you are, I’m trusting that all areas of your life will start to transform with vibrancy.

Voices In My Head (The Rick Lee James Podcast ) Episode 495
The Biggest Thing I learned In 2022
In my work as a chaplain this year, in all the books I read, patients I visited, and learning I received through didactics, this piece by Parker J. Palmer stayed with me more than any other. I think about it every day and it has transformed the way I look at doing ministry. I am grateful for it and I hope it will be meaningful to you as well.
 
Below is a written excerpt from the full article, which is linked below, and which I read on this episode.
“The human soul doesn't want to be advised or fixed or saved. It simply wants to be witnessed - to be seen, heard and companioned exactly as it is. When we make that kind of deep bow to the soul of a suffering person, our respect reinforces the soul's healing resources, the only resources that can help the sufferer make it through.
Aye, there's the rub. Many of us "helper" types are as much or more concerned with being seen as good helpers as we are with serving the soul-deep needs of the person who needs help. Witnessing and companioning take time and patience, which we often lack especially when we're in the presence of suffering so painful we can barely stand to be there, as if we were in danger of catching a contagious disease.
We want to apply our “fix,” then cut and run, figuring we’ve done the best we can to “save” the other person.”
—Parker J. Palmer
If this short excerpt intrigues you, I would encourage you to read the whole article at the link below while you listen to the song above. If you need me, I’ll be walking the halls.
Happy New Year,
Rick Lee James

Voices In My Head Podcast Episode #493: Karl Barth Christmas Day Sermon (Re-Broadcast)
"How should we know that there is heaven after death, when this side of death we expect nothing of heaven?"
- Karl Barth (from his Christmas Day Sermon 1918)

Voices In My Head Podcast Episode #492: Mark Schultz (Re-Broadcast)
My guest today on Voices In My Head is Singer, Songwriter, Platinum Selling, Dove Award winning artist Mark Schultz. On October 26th, Mark released his first ever Christmas album which is available on CD exclusively in Lifeway Christian Stores. The album simply titled, Mark Schultz Christmas is also available on iTunes and all other major digital and streaming outlets internationally.
Following the release of Christmas, Mark Schultz has been tapped to perform live Dec. 1 on the 2018 Nashville Christmas Parade. Benefitting the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt and featuring additional, world-renowned musical guests, the event will again be televised. Last year’s parade was seen on TV in over 100 markets.
For all the latest Mark Schultz, Christmas news, tour dates and more, go towww.markschultzmusic.com,  www.facebook.com/markschultz,www.twitter.com/mschultzmusic and www.instagram.com/mschultzmusic.
 
About Mark Schultz:With more than two million records sold, 10 No. 1 singles, a Dove Award, R.I.A.A. Platinum certification for Live: A Night of Stories & Songs (2005), national television appearances on "48 Hours," "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," CNN, CBN and more, Schultz has also landed the top spot on Billboard’s Christian Adult Contemporary Songwriter list and authored the novella, Letters From War. While many artists talk about chasing their dreams, for Schultz it’s about following God’s call. That calling shines through on his first full-length studio album in six years, Follow, released Aug. 17 and featuring the title track and more new songs along with fan-favorites. Mark and his wife Kate live just outside Nashville, TN with their three children: Ryan, Gus and Maia Mae.
