Finding Joy

We live in a world that is constantly chasing and running to the next thing. But contentment was never meant to be found in attaining what we think we need. It's found in relationship with God, the One who made us. Join Lauren and Rochelle for part 1 of a series on contentment.

What do we do when life is hard and we feel hard pressed on every side? Lauren and Rochelle talk about how Jesus wants to meet us in these places, along with the hidden blessings of walking through the hard with Him.

Lauren Gaskill continues our series on finding joy in motherhood with Lauren Gaines, author of Unshakable Kids and creator of Inspired Motherhood. Join them as they talk about common traps and triggers we can fall into, how to get out of them with the Lord's help, and why making room for rest is powerful and necessary. Follow She Found Joy on Instagram and Facebook. Learn more about the 2024 She Found Joy Retreat.

What does it mean to be a mother? What is the meaning and value behind being a mother? In this new series, Rochelle and Lauren help us understand God's intention for motherhood and how we can find joy in reflecting His heart to those He entrusts to us.

Jesus said "I am the gate." But the references to gates and walls found in Scripture don't stop there. What is the spiritual significance of gates and walls and what are the implications for us today? Lauren and Rochelle consider what it means to enter through the narrow gate and to protect our own gates every single day.

Simply put, the prophetic is hearing God for yourself and for others. Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 14 that all can prophesy, but how do we weigh a word to discern if it's really from the Lord? Not only that, but how do we move forward and partner with a word once we know it's from Him? Join Rochelle and Lauren for a heartfelt discussion and encouragement to not despise prophesy but embrace it from a place of wisdom and grace.

The calendar has changed to a new year, but rather than jumping into things, what steps can we take to start 2024 well? Lauren and Rochelle offer practical wisdom and tangible ways to experience greater levels of love, peace, righteousness and joy this year.

Rochelle and Lauren continue our "God Stories" series with stories of how they've seen God radically show up in their lives. May these stories ignite your faith for what God wants to do in your life this season.

Join Lauren Gaskill and special guest Shay Mason as they kick off a series dedicated to sharing stories of how they have seen God work in their lives and the lives of those around them. We hope this series can really encourage your heart — God is no respector of persons and He is the same yesterday, today and forever! May these testimonies of Jesus breathe life and hope into you today. The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy (Revelation 19:10)!

The pressure — to heal yourself, to fix the world, to please God or people, to say or do everything right — is off. Jesus' invitation has always been "come to Me and I will give you rest." His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Join Lauren and Rochelle for a conversation on entering rest that will hopefully have you feeling lighter before the holiday season. Let's stay connected!

Before God was Creator, He was Father. Since the beginning of time, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have existed in perfect love together. God's heart in creating mankind was to share His goodness and love and create a family that would put His glory on display for the whole world. Ephesians 2:18-19 tells us that through Jesus we all have access by one Spirit to the Father. Therefore, we are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God. The finished work of Jesus made it possible for you and I to join the family of God — and how we fellowship and interact with one another matters. Join Lauren and Rochelle for a new series on how we can all be more loving members of the family of God. She Found Joy Retreat Update! We have a new application deadline of May 31, 2023. This is a small retreat with spaces for under 10 women (not counting the speakers). Apply today at shefoundjoy.com/retreat to reserve your spot and be considered for this life-changing

We live in a world where oftentimes bad things get assigned to a good God. But the truth is this: God is good and is incapable of being anything other than good — no matter what we experience.
