A Conversation on Little Things, Celebrating Others, and Trusting God with Rachael K Adams

During this episode, we are learning how to trust God to increase the little we commit to Him for His glory.

7 The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray. 8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 9 Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. 10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.

Rachael was born and raised in a small Kentucky lake town. After she married her college sweetheart, Bryan, she moved him there too. Together, they run a family business and live on a farm with their two children, Will and Kate, and two doodle dogs named Buster and Penny.

Rachael spends her days taking care of their farm and home. When she isn’t doing something with or for her family, she loves to get together with friends, cook, take walks, and read Christian nonfiction. Her writing and podcasting journey began when she was sitting in church and saw a love offering envelope in the pew in front of her. She sensed the whispering to her heart that we are his love offerings to the world. So Rachael began having conversations with women who were living faithfully and loving the world around them in practical and tangible ways.

Through the conversations she’s had and through her own personal experience, Rachael discovered that many of us don’t believe our contributions or offerings matter. It is Rachael’s hope that this devotional and her ministry can change this narrative. She wants to encourage women to realize their God-given purpose and believe their lives are significant to His kingdom. Because in God’s hands, small acts done with great love can have an enormous impact.

During this episode, we are learning how to open our lives up to others and invite God to do the heavy lifting in the process of discipleship.

43 “You have heard that it was said, Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be children of your Father in heaven. For he causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward will you have? Don’t even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet only your brothers and sisters, what are you doing out of the ordinary? Don’t even the Gentiles do the same? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
