By My Own Lights
Welcome, my name is Rachael and I am the creator and host of By My Own Lights, a podcast where inside thoughts are shared with the outside world. I am a verbal processor. I like reflecting on moments in my life to find the light in it all, and my hope for this podcast is that it inspires you to find the light in yours. Sometimes the lessons we learned in adversity or in joy are just too precious to keep to ourselves.
The lessons and stories shared here are not prescriptive, the world needs all kinds of kinds and I encourage you to live a life according to your own lights. This podcast is a journey through one mind, one perspective, one life that loves Jesus, one person who doesn't have it all figured out. Take a listen and if it happens to inspire you in the slightest bit, don't be shy, give it a like and a follow.

Own It
In this first episode back after a bit of a break, I step into pretty uncomfortable territory. As you can tell from previous episodes, I am an imperfect woman of faith. This podcast has always been about sharing the lessons I have learned through my experiences, in hope it inspires others to reflect on the lessons from their experiences. I don't want you to live my experiences unless that's what you are called to and that's what you want. Live a life according to your own lights, just be sure to share some of that light with others.
In this episode I share about a thought journey I travelled while preparing a message for the high school ministry in which I have served for the last 7 years. I was asked to write a message around focusing on what God has called you for, and I found myself having to first truly discover what it means for my own life. I discovered, it's an easy ask but hard to implement.
