Navigating Major Life Changes With Elisha and Katie From Now That We're A Family

Navigating Major Life Changes With Elisha and Katie From Now That We're A Family

Author: As For Me And My House March 18, 2025 Duration: 29:37

As the saying goes, "life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans," and that statement couldn't be more true when your family is in the midst of major life shifts. Maybe you're moving across the country. Perhaps you just welcomed your first child into the world. Or it could be that you started a new career with entirely different rhythms that need to be quickly learned. Regardless of the shift you and your family are making, the Lord is always at work accomplishing His purposes in your life, if we would just pause long enough to take note. In this episode, we are joined once again by our sweet friends Elisha and Katie Voetberg of Now That We're A Family. We were so refreshed and encouraged to hear their wisdom on how they gracefully walked through a long season of living off grid, building a home, caring for their six children and adapting to a new chapter of life! You can learn more about the Voetbergs, their online music academy, and pick up a copy of their first ever print magazine at: https://www.nowthatwereafamily.com

In the middle of the chaos that comes with raising a family, where do faith and daily life actually meet? That’s the space explored in As For Me And My House, a podcast hosted by Jordan and Milena Ciciotti. This isn’t a polished, theoretical discussion, but a real-time conversation between a husband and wife navigating their commitment to Jesus alongside the beautiful, messy reality of parenting five young children. You’ll hear them work through Biblical principles in the context of marriage disputes, financial stress, and the sheer exhaustion of the day-to-day. Episodes might pivot from a deep dive into a scriptural truth to the hilarious antics of their dogs, all with the same genuine tone. The Ciciottis built this podcast specifically as a place of honest connection, believing that encouragement grows from authenticity, not from having everything figured out. Tuning in feels less like attending a lecture and more like pulling up a chair at their kitchen table, where the talk is raw, the laughter is frequent, and the support is tangible. It’s for anyone who wants their spirituality to feel grounded and relatable, woven into the fabric of ordinary stories and shared struggles.
