Thoughts and Prayers: Praying the Scriptures through Adversity

Thoughts and Prayers: Praying the Scriptures through Adversity

Author: As For Me And My House June 16, 2023 Duration: 18:50
Hey friends—many of you know by now that we are currently walking in the middle of a pretty deep valley. We were expecting our 4th child to be born in late October, but sadly we found out we miscarried and our baby is now with the Lord. While we took several weeks to grieve and mourn, God has wrapped His arms around us and brought us tremendous comfort through His Word, even in spite of the most difficult of seasons we’ve experienced. We will share more about our journey of healing in the next episode later this week, but wanted to share some Scriptures we’ve really clung to during this episode of Thoughts & Prayers. We pray this will serve to bless and comfort you when you experience pain and hurt.

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.
