ICDT 54: Taming the Voice of the Stressed Achiever (Gem with Morgan Northway)
October 10, 2022 07:00 - 38 minutes - 35.7 MBThe voice of the stressed achiever has much to do. She likes to focus on accomplishments and she cares about the opinions of others. Never allowing a break, the stressed achiever keeps you driving forward. She’ll have nothing to do with laziness. But what hums underneath is a fear that she doesn’t exist apart from her accomplishments. These are her mantras: Staying busy proves my worth. The more I produce, the more I am. Someone must push this thing up the hill. Let’s get going! Today, I...
229: The Discerning Life (Alan with Steve Macchia)
October 10, 2022 07:00 - 44 minutes - 40.4 MBThis week Alan interviews friend and fellow author, Steve Macchia, about his latest book The Discerning Life. When we use the language of “discerning” in popular culture, we often mean something like having good taste—like knowing good wine from average. As a spiritual capacity, it’s much more than that as you’ll see. In more particularly Christian contexts, we may use the language of discernment as it relates to decision-making. We come to a fork in the road and we feel the need for w...
ICDT 53: Attuning to Your Body (Gem with Sarah Jackson)
October 03, 2022 07:00 - 12 minutes - 11.7 MBMost of the women I connect with have an interesting connection with their bodies. And that’s putting it mildly. It seems we either love her, hate her or ignore her. (Notice I didn’t call my body an it, but rather her). I know I’m playing around with semantics, but personalizing my body helps me not keep her at arms distance…like an object. Our bodies are God-created and given. Many of us have suffered various forms of trauma over the course of our lives. And our bodies store the memory ...
Finding Life in Seeking God (Trevor Hudson)
October 03, 2022 07:00 - 41 minutes - 38.5 MBToday on Unhurried Living Podcast, Trevor Hudson shares wisdom he gained in a long mentoring friendship with Dallas Willard, and long practice in the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola. He talks about the reality of how the life of the kingdom of God is a different sort of life. It’s a life that meets us even in our places of hardship, weariness, and pain. I think you’re going to find a lot of grace in Trevor’s insights. All of this as we find life in seeking God. Connect wi...

ICDT 52: A Necessary Choice
September 26, 2022 07:00 - 7 minutes - 6.65 MBToday I’m sharing with you a very special story. It’s actually an excerpt from my new book, Hold That Thought. It’s my description of a pivotal scene from the movie Wonder Woman. I know…what can you learn from a superhero movie, right? Well, it turns out you can learn a lot. When you are open, aware and willing, there is no telling from where your next life lesson might emerge.

227: Leadership as a Transforming Process
September 26, 2022 07:00 - 31 minutes - 29.2 MBToday, we come to the final episode based on our book What Does Your Soul Love? The final chapter is titled: “Process: Staying on the Path of Change.” One of my key learnings over the years has been that to remain a person of spiritual influence in the communities where God has placed me, I must remain engaged in the transforming journey into which God has invited me. Letting myself get stuck, but then stay stuck along the way doesn’t help me or anyone else. So I’m looking forward to shari...

Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest (Ruth Haley Barton)
September 19, 2022 07:00 - 46 minutes - 42.3 MBNearly ten years ago, I wrote my first book, An Unhurried Life. It’s subtitle was “Following Jesus’ Rhythms of Work and Rest.” Discovering and following those rhythms of life and work have been a primary focus for Gem and for me in this last decade. So you can perhaps appreciate how glad I was when I saw that Ruth Haley Barton’s next book is titled, Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest: From Sabbath to Sabbatical and Back Again. In light of these intense last few years that we’ve all lived t...
ICDT 51: Seven Unhelpful Voices
September 19, 2022 07:00 - 13 minutes - 12.2 MBOn today’s podcast episode I’m sharing a little bit about each of the seven unhelpful voices that sometimes take the steering while of our lives. At its core, each voice does not believe it already has what it needs. So, it finds a way to whisper (or yell) in your ear to get your attention. When they feel backed into a corner these voices may lash out. Here’s an example from each voice. See if you recognize any of these: Stressed Achiever - You haven’t achieved enough yet. You haven’t prov...

Joy-Empowered Influence
September 12, 2022 07:00 - 41 minutes - 37.9 MBWe are continuing our series on Alan's book, What Does Your Soul Love? . Today we are talking about the chapter on "Joy.” In other words, the question, “What does your soul love?” is a question of where do we find deep joy? In the book of Nehemiah, we hear him telling the people that “the joy of the Lord is their strength.” It is God’s joy over us and in us that empowers and energizes us. It is our finding joy in God that sustains us and enables us to flourish. Connect with Alan ...
ICDT 50: Growling Slow (Gem with Jennifer Dukes Lee)
September 12, 2022 07:00 - 8 minutes - 8.13 MBToday, my guest is Jennifer Dukes Lee. Jennifer’s most recent book is entitled, Growing Slow. I placed her here right up front on purpose. Her message is one I deeply believe in. How could I not? We are Unhurried Living after all. The excerpt I chose for you this month is about wintering. If you think about the seasons of the year, most people don’t appreciate the view of a leafless tree, standing alone in the frozen tundra. But as you hear Jennifer describe what happens to farmland in wint...

The Connected Life (Todd Hall)
September 05, 2022 07:00 - 37 minutes - 52.1 MBToday Alan talks with author Dr. Todd Hall about his new book The Connected Life: The Art and Science of Relational Spirituality. In it, he talks about the reality of how isolated so many of us feel. The pandemic seemed to amplify and accelerate a sense of disconnection many of us were already feeling in some way or another. But God invites us into relationship, and connection is a great way to describe what he invites to. God’s Spirit enables us to experience the reality of God’s lovin...
ICDT 49: Central Paradigms for a Formational Life
September 05, 2022 07:00 - 42 minutes - 39.2 MBToday, I’m sharing with you one of the mentor conversations from the first month of Replenish. You’ll get to hear from me, Brenda Renderos and Larissa Marks as we talk about some of the central paradigms of the formational life. This is the kind of content you can expect each month in Replenish. Real life conversations about important and profound matters. Brenda Renderos is a soul care coach, and Larissa is a spiritual director and formation coach. They are both quite wise and gracious and...

ICDT 48: What Does it Mean to Replenish?
August 29, 2022 07:00 - 8 minutes - 7.4 MBI first want to talk to you about the word Replenish and why I love it so much. There are a lot of “R” words that I could have chosen: Rest, receive, recover, refill, or restore. Replenish stands out because within it is the connotation of refilling that which was poured out. It assumes you are giving, serving and working. It is important for us to remember that these dynamics are concurrent. We keep ourselves fresh and replenished as we continue to serve and give. No matter what your age ...
ICDT 47: Notice, Discern, Respond (A Journal Exercise)
August 22, 2022 07:00 - 9 minutes - 9.02 MBNotice, discern and respond (NDR). Three simple words. And yet they take time and intention. Today’s I Can Do That! episode is like a mini-workshop. I’m not just going to chatter away at you. Instead, you can take action on a thought right now, as we move through this together. This is about telling ourselves the truth. Critical, shaming or numbing thoughts do not help us mature the way we desire. We are simply becoming more aware of our thoughts so that they don’t run the show and keep ...
ICDT 46: You Already Have What You Need
August 15, 2022 07:00 - 6 minutes - 5.6 MBOver the last few years I’ve been consoled many times by this phrase: you already have what you need. It comes straight from 2 Peter 1:3 and the Spirit reminded me of its power during a particularly stressful season. It’s now an ongoing life-paradigm for me. I thought it might be nice if we spent a little time in 2 Peter, lingering over these words slowly. Savoring them like a fine chocolate. By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received...
ICDT 45: Engaging Your God-Given Voice
August 08, 2022 07:00 - 8 minutes - 7.96 MBIn the early part of my life I'd like to think that I was a relatively functional and intelligent participant in my own life. And I was. I got married, I held down a job, and we began a family. I enjoyed a large community and a wonderful life. However, under the surface, I didn't really have access to my own, individual voice. There was a kind of holy confidence missing. Self-doubt and anxiety often ruled the day. And I knew little of boundaries. I now enjoy a major shift of focus. I know...
ICDT 44: You Are More Than Your Thoughts
August 01, 2022 07:00 - 8 minutes - 8.17 MBToday we are talking about thoughts. We begin with "You are not your thoughts. You have thoughts." The first time I heard this I, of course, understood every single word. And yet it seemed like a foreign concept to me. What do you mean I'm not my thoughts? They're in my head, it's my voice, of course it's me! Another way of saying this is: You are more than your thoughts. You have thoughts. But you are not your thoughts. This is such a freeing insight. Because it means you have th...
Control is Not Leadership
July 25, 2022 07:00 - 40 minutes - 55 MBWe are continuing our series on Alan's book, What Does Your Soul Love? . Today we are talking about the chapter on "Control.” The core question around which this chapter revolves is this: “What Are You Clinging To?” In a conversation with friends on the topic of control in leadership, they tackle the idea that leadership and control are not the same thing. Many of the ways in which Christian leaders want to influence others are not exactly controllable. You can’t control people in the ...
ICDT 43: the Burden of Control
July 25, 2022 07:00 - 5 minutes - 5.45 MBPicture this...you are at the gym and you’re getting ready to lift some weights. It’s been a while, but you’ve decided to go for it. The barbell is in your hands and you are prepared to lift it up over your head. But before you do so, a guy walks over to you and says, “I bet you can lift more than that. Here, let me help you.” You protest, but he insists and then he proceeds to add 20 more pounds to each side. And then he just walks away, no cheering you on, and no coaching. You try to lif...

ICDT 42: The Blessing of My Name
July 18, 2022 07:00 - 5 minutes - 5.1 MBWe are living at a time when rampant contempt and disregard for humanity fill our daily newsfeeds. This is not limited to North America or Western culture; it’s occurring worldwide. We don’t even hear all of the terrible things that are happening, but what we do hear is now beyond unbearable. Like so many others who are speaking out about this problem, I don’t have easy answers. So, from my heart, I am asking that we continue to be people of blessing. We can be present in our own ver...

ICDT 41: Under Construction - Every Stage Matters
July 11, 2022 07:00 - 6 minutes - 5.88 MBIf you are in the middle of a season of change, you likely feel out of place, neither here nor there. You feel the need for some fresh air, some energy to keep going. If you are at the end of a season of change, you may be tired. You desire to celebrate, but you can’t keep your eyes open. Plus, the next project is looming before you and you don’t know if you have time to celebrate. Here is a passage on which you can hang your hat no matter what stage of your process you are in. It’s ...
Leading Through Fear
July 11, 2022 07:00 - 11 minutes - 16.1 MBToday Alan is sharing some personal thoughts on the chapter in his book What Does Your Soul Love? on “Fear.” The core question around which this chapter revolves, no surprise, is “What Are You Afraid Of?” It’s a challenge that we all face. It’s been said that the most common word of command God gives in the Scriptures is “Do not fear.” Alan hopes that what he has to share in today’s episode will help you enter into the encouraging gift of this command.

220: Deep Peace (Alan with Bishop Todd Hunter)
July 04, 2022 07:00 - 37 minutes - 50.9 MBIn today’s episode, Alan speaks with his friend and bishop, Todd Hunter. His most recent book is titled Deep Peace: Finding Calm in a World of Conflict and Anxiety. It’s a pretty timely topic, wouldn’t you say? Statistics over these last couple of years tell us that anxiety is at perhaps an all-time high. And you don’t have to go much further than your social media or news feed to see the levels of conflict in our time. One of the simple statements Todd has shared more than once goes, i...
ICDT 40: Soul Fitness
July 04, 2022 07:00 - 7 minutes - 6.67 MBOver the years, as I engaged in various forms of group exercise, I’ve collected some helpful tips from many fitness instructors. I’ve been able to narrow some of these ideas into an acronym that may help you formationally. Many of the same principles that grow us physically can also be translated into our formational inner work. So let’s take a look at ARC: Ability, Rhythm and Core. ABILITY - Start where you are. RHYTHM - Engage healthy rhythms. CORE - Let your believing become know...

June 27, 2022 07:00 - 41 minutes - 57.1 MB"How are you suffering?" Doesn’t this sound like a fun episode? However, it won’t take long to realize, and agree, there has been a lot of suffering in the last few years. A global pandemic. I’ve lost two friends to it, and I’m pretty sure I’ve lost two months of my life fighting COVID19 two different times. There’s been so much pain. Social conflict. Political polarization. Racial pain. Vocational isolation or overwhelm. This episode addresses these truths in a conversation I ha...

ICDT 39: Five Ways to Become a Better Listener
June 27, 2022 07:00 - 7 minutes - 6.78 MBWhat would it look like for you to slow down your inner pace as you converse with someone else? Here are five ways you can practice being present and listening to another person: Begin to quiet your mind as you listen. We all have distractions, but begin to practice setting aside your own inner whirlwind for a bit. Let the life of the person in front of you come to center stage. Quiet your own mind and tune in to what they are saying. Be at rest in their presence. Let God’s love for ...

In it, he talks about who we really are in God. How has God created us to flourish? What does it look like to be fully alive inside? How do we discover the person Jesus created us to be?

ICDT 38: Overcoming Situational Anxiety
June 20, 2022 07:00 - 6 minutes - 5.68 MB"So since we find ourselves fashioned into all these excellently formed and marvelously functioning parts in Christ’s body, let’s just go ahead and be what we were made to be, without enviously or pridefully comparing ourselves with each other, or trying to be something we aren’t." (Romans 12:5, MSG) "Love one another from the center of who you are…" (Romans 12:9, MSG) I now often use these verses as I prepare I speak to a group. I remind myself to embrace and to be who I am, witho...
ICDT 37: Gaining Perspective
June 13, 2022 07:00 - 7 minutes - 6.5 MBIn our book, What Does Your Soul Love?, I shared the story of how I was learning photography at the same time as I was in the midst of a dark night of the soul. At the time, and to this day, I carry within me the principles and metaphors of photography as a paradigm for my life. There are many connections here between photography, presence and perspective. I’d like to share three with you now. 1. Look for the light. 2. Remember the rule of three. 3. Choose where to focus. Listen t...
ICDT 36: What's the Rush
June 06, 2022 07:00 - 5 minutes - 5.34 MBI’ve been a spiritual director and coach for many women over many years. There are common themes that have arisen in that time. One prevalent theme I bump into over and over is this: Women tend to think there is something wrong with them if they are not progressing quickly through their current situation. Whether it’s a difficult work situation, a troubled relational issue, a period of extended grief, or any formational dynamic, most are convinced that quickly is the only reasona...
ICDT 35: Model of an Unhurried Leader
May 30, 2022 07:00 - 5 minutes - 4.74 MBAs a person of influence, you may be tempted to move ahead more quickly than your people can move. Be sure they sense you are with them in their journey, that you aren’t trying to drag them forward at your pace. If you are accompanying someone on their journey right now, notice if you are allowing them the dignity to set their own pace. Are there any adjustments you need to make as you accompany them? Relationship is more important than achievement. And, if you find yourself on the ...
ICDT 34: Copy the Master
May 23, 2022 07:00 - 4 minutes - 4.41 MBOften, when I talk about Unhurried Time with God, I offer that the reason we do it is because Jesus himself did it. Jesus often withdrew to lonely places to pray. He got in touch with the Father so he could find out what to do, and more importantly, who he was. Jesus said that the works he did were the Father’s works and the words he spoke were the Father’s words. How else did he know what to do and say except for time spent in God’s presence? Wouldn’t it be great for someone to look...
ICDT 33: Hide and Seek
May 16, 2022 07:00 - 5 minutes - 4.65 MBA few of our deepest needs are to be seen, known and heard. Some of us can share our hidden spaces directly with God. Others may need to make their way to God with the help of trusted friends, spiritual directors, coaches or counselors. Either way is beautiful because it means you are becoming more whole. So…show it all to God. Tell it like it is. It’s already happening and God knows about it. You are not hiding just because you have your hands over your eyes. That toddler game of peek-a...
ICDT 32: Frantic, Anxious Work
May 09, 2022 07:00 - 6 minutes - 5.73 MB“Unnatural, frantic, anxious work, work done under pressure of greed or fear or any other inordinate passion, cannot properly speaking be dedicated to God, because God never wills such work directly.” (Thomas Merton, New Seeds of Contemplation, p. 19) These words are a direct blow to my anxiety. Frantic work is never God’s invitation. Simply being reminded of this can be enough to quell the low hum of anxiety. If I know anything about myself it’s this: I want all that I do to be dedicated ...
ICDT 31: Be A Ticket Holder To Your Own Life
May 02, 2022 07:00 - 4 minutes - 4.39 MBWherever I go, do I act as though I should be there or am I held back by self-doubt? Do I enter with holy confidence or am I hamstrung by fear? Do I engage with assured presence or am I pressed down by anxiety? What if a “Beloved child of God” ticket was in my hand and I could use it at will. Like an eternal park hopper pass at Disneyland. Or like a never-ending entrance to the Cathedral in Florence. Of course, I don’t need to wonder—because I am a beloved child of God. Jesus assures...
ICDT 30: The Way of Love
April 25, 2022 07:00 - 9 minutes - 8.24 MBOver the years I have grown tired of my own inner dialogue—whether I am doing the right things, being the right things, saying the right things, accomplishing the right things. And not simply in regard to my outer work life but also my inner spiritual life. I have worn myself out with shoulds and ought-tos. What my heart truly seeks is peace. What it truly seeks is love. My simple, sighing prayer is, “I just want to be in Your love.” Might that be your prayer too? How does your heart long...
217: Truth as Lived Reality
April 25, 2022 07:00 - 51 minutes - 46.9 MB“What is most real to you?” There are a lot of ways that the idea of “truth” is talked about these days. There are those who view truth primarily as a philosophical or doctrinal category to be understood and perhaps defended. There are those who talk about “my truth” as a way of describing their personal perspectives or views. This week on Unhurried Living Podcast, Alan talks with friends and pastors on this topic of truth as a kind of lived honesty. This conversation stems from a...
