Carry Confetti
A podcast to help you discover how to cultivate a life of hopeful expectation and daily celebration.
I’m Darcie Frost, an Oklahoma girl now living in New Zealand and leading a church with my husband (and our two toddlers in tow). Through weekly episodes released every Monday, I’ll be exploring Christian theology and studies in psychology to better understand the powerful effects of gratitude and hope. No matter what season of life you are in, we could all benefit from a bit more joy infused into those ordinary, everyday moments.
I’ll be tackling questions like: How do I keep believing after so many setbacks? Why hasn’t God answered my prayer yet? How do you know God is good and on your side? How do I find the strength to celebrate others, while walking through grief, disappointment, and pain? What’s the difference between happiness and joy?

The Songs of Ascent: How Music Impacts Memory & Identity
There are some songs that we absolutely love to hear on repeat at certain times of the year, because it touches our soul and our memories in some way.
Songs can mark milestones in our lives and bring us back to that very moment when we hear it again.
Songs can connect us to other people and actually bring hearts into alignment.
Singing songs on a bad day can sometimes be the only thing to turn the mood around and shift our perspective.
Why is that?
Well, God designed our brains with such intention, and in today’s episode I want to talk about the power of music through the lens of the Songs of Ascent which is a 15-song playlist found in the Book of Psalms.
Let this be a reminder that music can and should be woven into our rhythm of repetition and our cycles of rest.
