Please excuse the mess… (actually, don't) ☕🎙️


So, I'm taking this week as a time of refreshing. A retreat with my church, organized by a non-profit that's dear to my heart. I'm going to share more about that later... but for now...

This week, I'm stepping away to rest, reflect, and sit with the Lord. And in that quiet, I felt it was the perfect time to release something that's been dear to my heart.

The Living Simply Redeemed podcast is here!

Now, let's be honest. Y'all know I can get a little long-winded. 😄 I've seen that coffee run out before you ever reached the end of my emails. So I thought, why not meet you right where you are?

Over this last year, I've been writing reflections: moments of introspection and quiet lessons God has been teaching me in the everyday. Some of them are simply better heard than read. So now you can take them with you while you're working, cooking dinner, folding laundry, or sitting in the carpool line.

I'm not a podcaster. I'm just a daughter of the King who wants to share meaningful moments of faithful living that I believe will resonate with you. It's not another sermon, just an honest conversation between friends. ​
New episodes come out every week.

Here's what God keeps showing me:
Perfection doesn't build community. Authenticity does.

Our spotless, picture-perfect spaces often keep people at arm's length. Our real, lived-in spaces become sanctuary.

So this week, I'm inviting you to create space:

• Space at your table, even if the dishes aren't done.

• Space in your schedule to actually hear from God.

• Space to finally act on the word He gave you, before it sits on the shelf too long.

And if one of these speaks to you, share it with a friend who needs it. Joy multiplies when it's shared.

THE 2027 ABIDING GRACE PLANNER PRESALES ARE CLOSING SOON.

2027 is coming whether we're ready or not. Let's be intentional now. Make space with Christ. Hear from Him. Write down what He shows you.

A sleek gold pen included with each planner.
​

Also coordinating stickers inside, adding a warm personal touch for the things you carry every day... laptops, journals, or wherever you need a small reminder of grace.

And just for fun...

Here's a little "guess what it is" peek at one of this year's surprises:

And one includes our OPG Candles, Abide and Grace!

Yes, the first 50 orders receive a few special goodies (while supplies last!)

Orders ship in November and December, just in time for the holidays and a beautiful gift for someone you love.

God is doing something great in your life, friend. My hope is simply to help steward the gift and calling He's given you, and to be faithful with the one He's given me.

The table is set. Come sit with me.

With love and grace,

Marlena

P.S. Listening while you fold laundry absolutely counts. 😉

Autumn is here! Do you feel it? The light is softer, the evenings come sooner, and something in us wants to slow down. I think that’s a season of rest calling. Fall, for me, has become a season of gathering in and letting go: the harvest comes in, and the fields rest. How is fall settling in for you? Joseph filled the barns before the famine came. Sometimes the little nudges we notice are God preparing us for what’s ahead. And sometimes we find ourselves in an empty field instead, where it...
