Have you ever caught yourself saying, “I’ll do that someday…”?

Too often we let the days slip by—some feeling mundane, others overwhelming. But what if today wasn’t just something to survive or check off the calendar? What if today was a verb—an invitation to act, embrace, and fully live?

On this week’s episode of The Love Offering podcast, I’m joined by my friend and bestselling author Carol McLeod to talk about her new book, Today Is a Verb: Open the Gift of Now in Every Ordinary Moment.

Carol encourages us to stop waiting for “someday” and to begin living with purpose today. Through powerful, action-oriented words like pray, trust, celebrate, forgive, and persevere, she helps us uncover the beauty and meaning tucked into each moment.

In our conversation, you’ll discover:

  • How to shift your mindset to see today as a divine gift

  • Practical ways to take action in your faith right now

  • How to embrace joy, even when life feels hard

  • Why God’s plan for your life isn’t just in the future—it’s unfolding today

Whether you need encouragement to get unstuck, hope for your current season, or a fresh perspective on the everyday, this episode is for you.

Let’s stop letting days pass us by. Let’s start living with intention—because today matters.

With love,


Rachael
