This Devoted Life
What started as a Saturday morning coffee date turned into a podcast where we discuss our faith, family, finances and so much more!
In a world that is encouraging you to “live your truth” and to “follow your heart,” we want to encourage you to live Devoted to THE Truth. The Bible has a lot to say about how to live a victorious Christian life, and we want to share practical insight in how to apply those truths to your life as we endeavor to apply them to our own lives as well.
We are passionate about building and growing the nuclear family, as well as sharing our expertise and experience with finances, homeschooling, and over 70 years of combined biblical knowledge.
Join us as we live… This Devoted Life!

Devoted Devotional: Living God's Truth in a Digital World
James and Shanda introduce their new "Devoted Devotional" series focusing on applying biblical truths to everyday life, diving into what Scripture teaches about social media use and intentional living in a digital world.
• Shanda shares her experience taking a three-month social media break and the impact it had on her perspective
• Implementing boundaries such as "no social media before noon" helps maintain focus on family and priorities
• James discusses removing social media apps from his phone to reduce mindless scrolling and increase intentionality
• Ephesians 4:29 reminds us that our online communication should be edifying, not corrupt
• Psalm 101 warns against setting wicked things before our eyes, challenging us to be selective about what we consume
• Matthew 5:29 emphasizes the importance of taking drastic measures if something causes you to stumble
• Ephesians 5:16 encourages redeeming our time wisely rather than wasting it online
• 1 Corinthians 10:13 offers comfort that we aren't alone in our struggles with technology
• Biblical principles apply to modern challenges even when the specific technology didn't exist when Scripture was written
Continue to seek God, love your spouse, hug your kids, and stay devoted. Leave us a review and share these episodes with friends to help them live this devoted life too.
