New Year Same You

New Year Same You

Author: As For Me And My House January 9, 2023 Duration: 33:29
Happy 2023 to the AFM+MH family! We missed you all so much and could hardly wait to be back with you. It is our hope that today's show serves as a refreshing encouragement and reminder that regardless of where you are on your New Year's resolution journey, you can find rest, peace, and assurance in Christ Jesus as your foundation for all things. While healthy lifestyle changes are good and noble pursuits, we must remind ourselves that our identity as followers of Jesus is found in knowing Him in relationship, and not in how many books we read or the calories we burn. God redeems us THEN makes us righteous, and then enables us to walk in the good works he has prepared for us. Maybe this is the year to actually stop striving for change by your own willpower and simply surrender to the Holy Spirit to work in and through you for His purposes. May He make that known to you this year.

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.
