Happy New Year!!  Today we get to kick off the New Year with an inspiring (and funny as always!) chat with Bob Goff. Bob is sharing the heart of his brand new book, Catching Whimsy: 365 Days of Possibility, and how it applies to all of us – no matter how normal and routine our lives may seem! Bob is a master story teller, yet manages to weave spiritual truths and wisdom nuggets into everything he does. If you’ve got some hurt, or need a fresh perspective on your circumstances, tune in and be encouraged.  Find show notes with links to an EXCERPT from Bob’s book as well as the chance to WIN A FREE COPY, over at: http://www.monicaswanson.com/bobgoff General podcast page: http://www.monicaswanson.com/podcast Looking for a Bible-based math or science homeschool curriculum?

We are officially one week away from Christmas! This is a replay from a fun “date-night” style episode my husband Dave and I shared a few days before Christmas in 2023. Dave and I are passing along wisdom we have gleaned over 29 Christmases together, most with a house full of boys. You'll find some important “do’s” as well as a few “don’t”’s! Hopefully a few will be encouraging reminders and a few will make you laugh. We imagine some of you might listen together with your spouse while wrapping gifts, running last-minute errands, or in front of the fire for a stay-in date night. (Of course you can listen all on your own as well. These principles will be helpful to everyone!) Find show notes and any links mentioned at: http://www.monicaswanson.com/10-Christmas General podcast page: http://www.monicaswanson.com/podcast Looking for a Bible-based math or science homeschool curriculum?
