Every episode: one clear topic, theological grounding, a practical framework, and a next step that won&#39;t overwhelm you.

Time management is a myth. What God entrusted you to steward is your response to the 24-hour limit.Episode summaryYou can’t manage time. It moves forward without your consent, and no planner or hack changes that. God created time as a construct and placed us inside it, and that limit is meant to remind us we’re finite image bearers.What you can steward is your response to the limit. In this episode, Rachel walks through nine ways we respond. Then how the four areas of stewardship (body, home, fields, tables) tell you what belongs inside your 24 hours. She closes with the question that reframes the whole thing: what has God actually asked me to steward and how do I allocate 24 hours to that?Key takeaways<ul><li>Time isn’t something you steward. It moves forward without your consent, and you can’t multiply, slow, or stop it. </li><li>God created the limit and placed you inside it.</li><li>What you can steward is your response to that limit. Most responses are reactive: ignoring it, letting others fill it, saying yes out of fear or guilt.</li><li>Accepting the 24-hour limit is an act of dependence. It reminds you that you’re a finite image bearer, not the Creator.</li><li>The four areas (body, home, fields, tables) tell you what belongs inside the limit. Ask what God entrusted you to tend, then allocate your 24 hours daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly.</li><li>The words you use matter. When you stop asking “how do I manage my time?” and start asking “what has God asked me to steward?” your decisions come from intention instead of fear, guilt, or hustle.</li></ul> Grab the free 15 Minute Margin Method: <a href="https://rachelfahrenbach.com/margin" rel="nofollow">rachelfahrenbach.com/margin</a>ConnectLearn more about Rachel: https://rachelfahrenbach.comSend Rachel a DM on Instagram: <a href="https://instagram.com/rachelfahrenbach" rel="nofollow">https://instagram.com/rachelfahrenbach</a>

Ep 59: Time is a constraint, not something you steward

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/6/24/2/ac200971-2604-43e3-97f3-4869bc3b700d_ep_58__work-life_balance_is_a_myth.mp3

Work-life balance puts work and life in competition. God designed something different: a rhythm.Episode summaryThe phrase &#39;work-life balance&#39; creates three problems. It turns work into a necessary evil (as if creating isn&#39;t part of being human). It makes the rest of life sound effortless (it&#39;s all tending). And it puts your creative calling in competition with everything else.In this episode, Rachel walks through how her family defines what stops on Sabbath (and what doesn&#39;t), why moms especially need to redefine what counts as &#39;work,&#39; and what shifted when work-life balance got replaced with a rhythm of creative stewardship.Key takeaways<ul><li>Work-life balance turns work into something separate from living. But God&#39;s directive for humanity was to create, cultivate, and steward. The work is part of being human.</li><li>Every area of your life (body, home, field, tables) requires tending. When we expect the &#39;life&#39; side to be effortless, we feel like failures when it&#39;s hard.</li><li>The biblical rhythm is 1 day of rest, 6 days of tending. Tending means stewarding all four areas. Rest means stopping provision-producing effort and delighting in what&#39;s been done.</li><li>The hardest part is defining what &#39;work&#39; actually is. The question that helps: what creative effort that produces provision can I stop for 24 hours?</li><li>This rhythm produces a stabilizing peace, forces intentional decisions, and removes the guilt of doing your creative work during the six days God gave you to do it.</li></ul> Free GuideGrab the free 15 Minute Margin Method: rachelfahrenbach.com/marginConnectWebsite: <a href="https://rachelfahrenbach.com" rel="nofollow">https://rachelfahrenbach.com</a>Instagram: https://instagram.com/rachelfahrenbach

Ep 58: 1 Day Rest, 6 Days of Tending (scrap work-life balance)

Everything felt equally urgent. Then Rachel found four categories and a flow that changed how she decides. ➡️Grab the free 15 Minute Margin Method: https://rachelfahrenbach.com/margin Episode SummaryRachel spent years trying to prioritize my life with frameworks that gave 7, 8, 10 categories and expected her to set goals in each one. It was exhausting. She&#39;d make progress in one area and watch another fall apart. One Sunday in church, four areas arrived clearly: Body, Home, Field, Table. The real gift was the order: Body first, then Home, then Field, then Table. Each one depends on the one before it.When you can name which area a demand belongs to, you can evaluate it. When you know the flow, you know what to prioritize. The framework gives you the right questions instead of more guilt.Key Takeaways<ul><li>Body, Home, Field, Table: four areas of stewardship that flow in order. Each depends on the one before it.</li><li>Body is your embodied soul: physical, spiritual, mental, emotional. All integrated. When this breaks down, everything downstream suffers.</li><li>Home is your relationships within your home (namely spouse, kids) and your habitat.</li><li>The environment everything else grows from.</li><li>Field is your entrusted work: the areas you invest in with the expectation of provision. It simultaneously serves others and provides resources for your Body and Home.</li><li>Tables is your community, volunteering, and generosity. The extension of your stewardship outward.</li><li>The framework produces awareness, not perfect balance. Awareness lets you make intentional adjustments instead of guilt-driven reactions.</li></ul> Grab the free 15 Minute Margin Method: https://rachelfahrenbach.com/marginConnectWebsite: https://rachelfahrenbach.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/rachelfahrenbach

Ep 57: How I stopped drowning in 10 categories of guilt

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/6/9/22/358efb52-2d9c-45be-b2ac-c1fdcc1e0207_ere_designed_to_create_but_not_how_you_think.mp3

<h3>You know you were designed to create. But the ache you feel might be bigger than missing your art. </h3> Episode summary In this episode, Rachel talks about the difference between managing your life (keeping chaos at bay, checking boxes, surviving) and stewarding it (cultivating growth, bringing forth beauty, multiplying). The ache creative women feel isn&#39;t just about missing their art. It&#39;s about living in management mode when they were designed to cultivate every area of their lives. Key takeaways Managing keeps things from getting worse. Stewarding makes things grow. Most women Rachel talks to are stuck in management mode—competent, busy, holding it together, and quietly suffocating. The ache you feel when you miss your art goes deeper than the art itself. When you&#39;re only managing your life and creating nowhere, you feel the loss everywhere. The art is just the obvious absence.The Genesis mandate to tend, be fruitful, and multiply covers everything:body, home, fields (work), and tables (community). When you steward all of those areas (instead of just managing them), you come alive. Rachel&#39;s writing moved from Sabbath rest to Field work as she started creating across her whole life.

Ep 56: You were designed to create — but not how you think

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/6/3/22/d9d836af-f71b-497f-9424-9a7aea016f51_creative_work_needs_a_different_starting_point.mp3

Christian creatives fall into two camps: hustle or be still. God asked for neither. He asked for stewardship. Episode Summary I have been in both camps. The season where I white-knuckled my way through a book launch because I thought effort equaled faithfulness. And the season where I dragged my feet on writing Image of the Invisible because I was afraid being productive meant I was hustling. Both sides use Scripture. Both feel true in the moment. And both miss what God actually asked us to do: steward what He&#39;s entrusted to us from a posture of rest. In this episode, I break down what &#34;create from rest&#34; means, why it starts in Genesis 1-2, and how practicing a 24-hour Sabbath reshaped how I approach every area of my life. Key Takeaways &#34;Create from rest&#34; is a posture of dependence on God, not an activity or a goal to hit. You work from security, not toward it. Hustle culture and stillness culture are two sides of the same problem: both are responses to fear instead of responses to God&#39;s invitation to steward. Work was never a curse. God placed Adam and Eve in the garden to tend it before the fall. Creating with God is the invitation. Practicing a weekly Sabbath reframes everything: it reminds you that you are not God, and that&#39;s actually a relief.

Ideal for learning to craft fiction, really. After half a century of convincing consumers to buy things they don’t need with money they don’t have, Marline retired. She tossed her snarky coffee mugs and reunited with her childhood joy—writing crazy, wonderful stories.Marline weaves midcentury-modern nostalgia and Jesus Movement memories into offbeat love stories for women who aren’t sure they believe in happily-ever-afters anymore. Her offbeat, faith-soaked romances are set in the swingin’ ’60s and funkadelic ’70s (with occasion trips to the nifty ’50s). Sweet-yet-swoony stories that go deep, but not dark.Her debut novel, All Men Are Liars (Jesus Revolution Romance, Book 1) launches September 2024.Wild and Sweet, a 1960’s Christmas novella (part of the Christmas in the Cascades anthology) launches October 2024. 📘 Connect With Marline    ➡️ <a href="https://marlinewilliams.com/" rel="nofollow">https://marlinewilliams.com/</a>     ➡️ <a href="https://www.instagram.com/marlinewilliams_author/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/marlinewilliams_author/</a>    ➡️ <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087164047981" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087164047981</a>     ➡️ <a href="https://open.spotify.com/user/31o3i6uz4dqrrtxvw4aox3o2wwsa" rel="nofollow">https://open.spotify.com/user/31o3i6uz4dqrrtxvw4aox3o2wwsa</a>     ➡️ <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/marlinewilliamsauthor/" rel="nofollow">https://www.pinterest.com/marlinewilliamsauthor/</a>  =============================📱 Subscribe and Listen to the The Business of Christian Fiction Podcast HERE: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-business-of-christian-fiction/id1645870156 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7CPaxgmw479Q3r31NsdCQM?si=1c4916c3bd7e4f09 YouTube: https://youtube.com/@thebusinessofchristianfiction  Connect:Instagram: https://instagram.com/thebusinessofchristianfiction  =============================This Video was Filmed &amp; Edited Using: Web Camera: Logitech for Creators StreamCam Amazon ➡️ https://amzn.to/3Cm0D02  Microphone: Audio-Technica ATR2100XAmazon ➡️ https://amzn.to/3GCUrD5  Video Editing: DescriptDescript ➡️ https://get.descript.com/7hj2arp0leed  =============================We’re on a mission to help 1,000 Christian fiction writers make both an impact and an income from their storytelling.  ⚡️FREE RESOURCES: Download FREE worksheets designed for fiction writers: https://rachelfahrenbach.com/resources ⚡️BOOK: Check out the Gifted + Guided Quarterly Prayer Journal for Entrepreneurs: https://amzn.to/48kMyOl Connect with Rachel on Social Mediahttps://rachelfahrenbach.comhttps://instagram.com/rachelfahrenbachhttps://facebook.com/rachelfahrenbach QUESTION — Who would you like to hear from on the podcast?  About this video:Welcome!

Ep 40: Make Money while Writing Your Novel with Ericka Andersen, Freelance Writing Coach

You were made to create. You were also made to rest. Most advice in the Christian creative space treats those like opposites. They're not.

Create from Rest is a weekly podcast for high-capacity Christian creative women who want to steward their calling with both conviction and strategy. Every episode: one clear topic, theological grounding, a practical framework, and a next step that won't overwhelm you.

Hosted by Rachel Fahrenbach, self-published author building a six-figure author brand without agents, conferences, or permission from the industry.

New episodes every Wednesday.
