Episode 154 Christmastime - The Struggle to Keep it SIMPLE
Monday Dec 18, 2023
Monday Dec 18, 2023
Welcome to Raw. Real. Redeemed! Christmastime brings with it a lot of wishes and wants and for some of us, pain, stress and feelings of being or having less than. It is a struggle to keep things simple, at home, in gift giving and in our hearts. In it's truest meaning, Christmas is about God sending his son into the world to save sinners...in a most humble way and having nothing to do with decor, vibes, coziness, lights, trees, santa, piles of presents...or any of the other things we make it. But the struggle IS real.

Episode 152 A Place for Everything & Everything in it’s Place
Monday Dec 04, 2023
Monday Dec 04, 2023
Welcome to Raw. Real. Redeemed! How do we maintain the balance between tidy and chaos, order and disorder, calm and stressed, enough and too much? It's not easy. But one test I use in our home...is...you'll have to tune in to find out. And I MIGHT just send a shot across the bow in regards to hoarding...and a way to tell if you might be slipping into that territory. Everything home is my favorite thing to talk about it. Let's begin shall we?

Episode 149 When You Don’t Know What Else to do...PRAY
Monday Nov 13, 2023
Monday Nov 13, 2023
Welcome to Raw. Real. Redeemed! Whilst going through a seriously difficult season physically I had to fight and fight and fight for the next right step...because the situation itself kept changing so drastically and there were so many different moving pieces that I could not control. In the end...I had to surrender and just pray...and God moved the mountains.
Since this episode was recorded I have had surgery and gone through several weeks of slow healing...which I look forward to talking about in future episodes.
Are you going through painful times friend? PRAY. Pray to the LORD and He WILL come alongside you in ways you can not now see or believe.

Episode 148 A Mother’s Intuition
Monday Nov 06, 2023
Monday Nov 06, 2023
Welcome to Raw. Real. Redeemed! When we were gathered to record this episode there was a state wide man hunt going on for someone who had just killed almost 20 people and injured many more. This was a first in our state and very scary to experience even an hour away from where it happened...let alone where Amber's oldest daughter was...in the same town. So as you can imagine, Ber was feeling ALL the mama bear feels, gut feelings and intuitions that could be felt and she had to do something about it.
Since this episode was recorded the man in question was found dead by his own hand in the woods near where he had killed so many.
