Julia Grace joins Lizzie on Afternoon Praise to talk about keeping joy alive in our everyday work. From a flight to Dunedin decades ago to a bright yellow front door, Julia shares why our brains normalise the extraordinary through hedonic adaptation, and offers a simple tool, Reflect, Select and Celebrate, to help us notice and hold onto gratitude for the things we once dreamed of. A warm, practical conversation about shifting from "I have to" to "I get to". | SANCTUARY SOCIALS ▶ Visit our WEBSITE: https://yoursanctuary.nz ▶ Follow us on INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/yoursanctuary.nz/ ▶ Join our FACEBOOK Page: https://www.facebook.com/yoursanctuary.nz

Pastor Paul Sawry talk honestly about the times we feel prompted by the Holy Spirit and don't act on it, and what happens when we get a second chance. Paul shares two supermarket stories, one where fear and hesitation cost him the moment, and one a few years later where he finally followed through. Grounded in James 4:17 and Proverbs 24:16, this is a raw, encouraging conversation about generosity, obedience, and grace for ourselves when we get it wrong. | SANCTUARY SOCIALS ▶ Visit our WEBSITE: https://yoursanctuary.nz ▶ Follow us on INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/yoursanctuary.nz/ ▶ Join our FACEBOOK Page: https://www.facebook.com/yoursanctuary.nz
