In this second part of the "Going to the Movies" series, we talk about the 2006 film "Click". In the film, architect Michael Newman gets a universal remote control that controls a lot more than his TV - it controls time. He uses it at work to cause light-hearted mischief and skip past minor inconveniences, but then starts missing significant milestones and storylines in his family's lives. In this episode, I talk about the importance of being FULLY engaged in the present - making the most of each moment, loving your family, appreciating the things God has placed in your life.

The only way we can be truly present in the moment and not let things steal us from being there is to surrender the past we can't change and trust God with the future that we can't control. If living in the moment is something you've strived to do better, or if you're looking for ways to be more intentional about living "in the moment", give this week's episode a listen.

And... we're back! We kick off Season 5 of the Q on Queue podcast with an all-new series, "Going to the Movies". In this series, we will take the titles and themes of some of the most popular movies through the years and make their plots and lessons very applicable to our daily lives.

In this first episode of the series and first of our new season, we look at "Groundhog Day". The 1993 movie, starring Bill Murray, follows the life of Phil Connors, a TV weatherman who keeps reliving the same day over and over as he covers the events of Groundhog Day in Punxsutawney, PA. Phil quickly realizes that he needs to change his ways and adopt a new perspective if he wants to move to February 3. In this episode, I'll highlight why changing our perspective is important, as well as how adopting small changes in your habits can make a big difference and go a long way to positive change in the future.

The past 3 weeks have been the BIGGEST in the past 3 years. I want to thank all of my listeners and supporters out there! Our growth has been huge lately, and it's all thanks to you - thank you for listening, thank you for supporting.

Q on Queue is about a lot of different things - life, inspiration, music, family, and so much more. In each episode, you'll hear a lot about my own life and some of what's been on my mind. Most of the content for this show centers around my faith, my love for music, my career as an educator, and much more. My desire out of this podcast is that we can do life together. There are a lot of challenges in life and plenty of opportunities to learn and grow.

Season 5 is coming August 26! If you've listened, please share this podcast with friends, family, colleagues, acquaintances... anyone you feel could benefit from what has been laid on my heart to share. You can find it on most major podcast providers, YouTube, and at qonqueue.com.

If you haven't checked it out yet, I hope you'll consider it - each episode is only 15-20 minutes. I hope you'll come along on this journey with me, as I bring to you what I have - on queue. See you August 26!

We've been watching the Olympics - seeing the gold medal strides, the heartbreak of coming up just short, the success stories, the losses, the long roads, the easy wins... Most of the athletes who see victory give a fairly common interview about who to thank, the hard work it took to get there, and the success their grateful for.

But last night, after Gabby Thomas won the 200m, she shared something that I haven't been able to stop thinking about. In talking about winning the gold medal, she talked about all of the hours behind the scenes that not many people get to see. It got me thinking - in life, we often see and remember the amazing moments that happen, the big events, but we forget all of the work that went into getting there. I'm talking about all of the hours of preparation, failure, and sweat that doesn't get seen. I'm talking about the decisions that, in a moment, seem to be impossible to make and we know they can shape the trajectory of where we are headed. I'm talking about stepping out of our comfort zones - doing the unthinkable when others say it's impossible.

I'm talking about the faith it takes to step out into our futures. Gold medal success, or any success for that matter, isn't just the one big moment - it's all of that other stuff too. We don't always know what Point A to Point B will look like. It may be easy to want to give up because we feel like we're moving ant hills instead of mountains, or because others don't support the vision, or because we're feeling frustrated or defeated. Keep pushing and putting in the hours in the places that really matter. Those hours add up, even if no one gets to see them.

And it's what you do in those times that will get you to that podium. Even if you don't win the gold medal, be proud of your successes and knowing what you did to get you where you are.

I started Q on Queue 3 1/2 years ago after going through a rough season. I felt God had called me to share some of my life's experiences and lesson I had learned through the lens of a teacher. Here we are, after 73 episodes, and I could never have imagined we would be where we are. While many podcasts came and went during the Covid pandemic after just a few episodes, we kept creating, and you kept listening.

It's incredible to think of the outreach that technology allows us to have. Here are just a few stats from our first 73 episodes:
- Our episodes have been streamed in 38 countries and on 6 of the 7 continents
- Just over 80% of our episodes have been streamed in the U.S., while nearly 20% have been listened to in other countries
- Between all of the providers on which we post, we have had thousands of unique stream signatures, and people who have been with us since Episode 1

I feel so very blessed to get to create this podcast and so very grateful to all of you who support this podcast through listening, your prayers, and your kind words.

If you have been a faithful listener, THANK YOU! Your support means the world to me. If you haven't given us a try, why not check out an episode and give it a listen? We've covered so many topics applicable to so much of life, from stress to boundaries to our past and our future. It's been a great 3 1/2 years and I look forward to the next 3 1/2 years and beyond with all of you!

Coming Monday, July 15...

One of our family's favorite summer activities is what we like to call “Destination Unknown” trips. We take someone to a special event or place and they have very few details about where they're going.

Well, in a very similar way, a lot of the places we are headed in life are really a "destination unknown". We don't know every step, every result, every outcome. Sometimes we are hesitant to step out in faith because we don't know what's next. So, how do we handle, how do we begin to perceive going through life knowing there’s a place and a purpose for us, without knowing exactly where we are going? How do we take that journey without knowing all of the stops along the way?

This week I'll be sharing a new episode entitled "Destination Unknown". I won't be reinventing the wheel and I won't be giving any magic solutions. This week is more of a reassurance about even though we don't know every destination we are headed, we can trust the one who authors our steps as we take each of those steps.

After a slight delay, we're back! Episode 72 of Q on Queue is now available!

This week, we tackle the topic of communication, and how important some basic principles in communicating with others really shape our connections. It really can be as simple as what, why, and how.

Check it out through most major podcast providers, on YouTube, or at www.qonqueue.com.

Switching it up for this upcoming week... Putting my original topic plan on the back burner, as God has given me something to share... Our "Back to Basics" series continues with an episode on getting back to the basics of COMMUNICATION.

What do your words communicate to those around you? What do your actions say about how you are feeling or what you're thinking? Our relationships are directly affected both positively and negatively by what we say and do.

This week, I'll be sharing why communication doesn't have to be so hard as we make it out to be - principles for healthy communication and how to put them into practice to improve your connections with others.

Coming this Monday, June 17, 2024. In the meantime, check out our past episodes at www.qonqueue.com, through YouTube, or through most major podcast providers.

Due to some vocal strain, this week's Q on Queue episode will be delayed by a day or two. My apologies for the delay!

Every day it seems like there are more and more things in life to pull us off track - things and experiences and people and situations that take us off course and stop us from achieving our objectives and goals. Some of our lives have SOOO much. I think about my own responsibilities - so many things to do for so many people. These things can only be successful with a plan, and most importantly with boundaries.

In this first episode of our new "Back to Basics" series, we talk about going back to basics with boundaries in our lives. Why are boundaries important and is it really easy to set them and maintain them at the most basic of levels?

We're back next week with an all new series that I'm super excited about! It's called "ABC-123". What's it about? Too many times in life, we try to make too much out of certain things or we try to go to far or make things too flashy. Most of the time, we would find happiness and success if we'd just get back to the basics. This is true in our faith, our relationships, our work, and so much more.

This will be a multi-part series, starting on Monday, April 29 with part 1 focusing on Relationships. In this episode, I'll talk about what happens when we stray so far from "loving others" and how trying to do too much can actually have an effect opposite of what we're trying to find in a relationship.

Check it out this Monday... in the meantime, check out our previous episodes through most major podcast providers and at qonqueue.com. Thank you for your continued support of this work!

Have you ever held a glass of water? I mean, really held it - like stuck out your arm and held it for a long time. The longer that you hold onto it, the heavier it seems to get. The actual weight of the glass never changed, but the longer you held it up, the more painful and uncomfortable it gets to hold.

The same is true about our thoughts, especially negative ones. It's ok to have thoughts, but we seem to hold onto the negative ones for way longer than we should. Like the glass of water, the more you hold on to it, the more uncomfortable it can make you and the more pain it can cause.

The moral of the story?

You have to know when to put the glass down.

New episode online today! Check out Episode 68: The Mask, the second in our 3-part series "Three Images at Easter". When we know our true identity in Christ, why do we pretend to be something we’re not? The fact is that all of us wear some type of mask, whether it's to hide something or to fit in or to pretend to be something we're not. This week, we talk about the dangers of those masks, how masks were a part of the Easter story, and why it's so important to tear them off and break them to be the authentic person God called us to be.
