The Normally Amazing Show: Recent Episodes
Janet Mylin
I'm fascinated when normal people do amazing things and amazing people do really normal things. And I'm fascinated by how our amazing God intersects with our normal human lives.
I start out with what I'm reading these days and then dive into a WILD NIGHT when God literally woke me up from a solid sleep.
And He spoke to me. WOW!
You can watch this on YouTube, if that's how you roll!

I've found people (and especially women) are a little afraid to dip into studying theology. That used to be me but my friend, Anne, and I are giving it a go and I learned something cool about sanctification which may be of interest to you.

Because you truly are. đź’“

She is gifted in counseling and talks to us about why we can go so quickly into rage or isolation when someone does something that gets under our skin. This could be a game-changer for you.

Carrie Porter. I've known her since she was "knee high to a grasshopper" - well, at least since she was in high school. At different points I've had a front-row seat to her growth in the powerful gift of intercessory prayer.Â
After this podcast, you will feel inspired anew to approach the throne of grace with confidence to receive mercy and grace in your time of need.

Not to brag, but I have a Scottish friend. Her name is Nicola and she's helping me introduce this new podcast series.
"Arise, my darling.
Come away, my beautiful one.
**For now the winter is past;
the rain has ended and gone away.**
The blossoms appear in the countryside.
The time of singing has come,
and the turtledove’s cooing is heard in our land.
The fig tree ripens its figs;
the blossoming vines give off their fragrance.
Arise, my darling.
Come away, my beautiful one."

Mother's Day isn't all candy and flowers for everyone. It's a really complicated holiday for a lot of men and women. This year's been especially hard for me. Lots of tears. Lots of grief. Lots of...nameless wild emotions.

Emily Burns of Living for Simple is in the HOUSE! Well, actually, I was in HER house and we had a blast talking about what Simplicity really means to her. How is it different from Minimalism? Can you live more simply even if you have three young children? Does living for simple only apply to possessions? SO many good questions!
As Emily sat in her intermittently creaky wooden chair by her simply decorated Christmas tree, peace and joy just flowed from her lips with the greatest of ease. You will love her.

Back in the day, we'd sign our notes to friends with acronyms like LYLAS (Love You Like a Sister), AFA (A Friend Always) or AFF (A Friend Forever). I'll probably never forget what those letters stand for. Sometimes acronyms are great ways to remember scripture, too.Â

If you're looking for the real, raw rumination of a woman pressing into healing only the Lord can give, you are in the right spot. A woman of God I know (who chooses to remain anonymous) wrote this allegorical piece as she processed some of her own wounding and the insecurity it produced.

We need to listen to others who are a few steps ahead of us in life so we can learn how to navigate our current season. My Jesus-loving sister-in-law, Lisa Harding, sat down with me at Thanksgiving in 2019 and shared some great perspectives for all moms about "mom guilt." She blew my MIND with "The Three Gauges." Even if you skip forward and just listen to that part, you'll be better for it. (You can find it at about 7 minutes 37 seconds.) Something you should know is Lisa is a legit doctor. That means lots of things but what it means for MY family is she is on-call for every single family gathering we have because someone ALWAYS gets injured. ALWAYS.
