Hey, all you beautiful people and welcome to the glorious and the mundane podcast. I'm your host, Christine Ackles. I love being able to

discover here together what life and God truly looks like, even in the middle of our most

mundane ordinary days. I wanted to remind those of you who are listening that we are now

filming the Glorious and the Mundane podcast right here from Keepers Branch and what we lovingly

call the chapel. This was actually a garden shed when we bought this house, well, really more

of like a glorified wasps nest. But its first blessing to us was when we got rid of all the critters,

you know, we built it out, and Nathan's studio

was in this little precious building. And we recorded the Thrill of Hope Christmas album here

in this space, as well as the first lullaby album called Be Held. But we quickly outgrew this space,

and we ended up building out our garage for the studio that we have

now and now the chapel as we lovingly call it as I said where I'm sitting right now. This is

where Eliana, our daughter, she has painted many hours in this place. I pretty much wrote my book

The Life You Long For in this space. It's a great place to

take a nap, I will say, is on a rainy day, but it's also the place where Nate has set up a

makeshift studio to film in. He is behind the camera right now, and he's been doing a beautiful

job filming, and you can find them on my YouTube channel if you want to watch

the last few episodes actually and if you subscribe it's a lot easier to find the episodes but

I hope you will check it out so Nate and I have a big anniversary this week y'all we're

celebrating 30 years of marriage.

Come on, Nate.

Let's give me a clap.

Honestly, I can't even really believe that I'm saying 30 years out loud when I say it.
