Between the Pages Podcast

We live in a world where we tend to focus on the mountain top and valley moments that life brings us. The beginning, biggest victories, character climax, and loss that each chapter of life can bring. When we are on the mountain top we worship God, and when we are in the valley, we cry out to God.  But, we live most of our life in the day to day, where we just go through the motions. So how do we keep up a bold faith "between the pages" of life?  That is what "Between The Pages" is all about! We are challenging the conversations to dive deeper in how we can live out our faith.  Join us every other Wednesday as we talk to different guests, team members, community leaders about topics that will leave you feeling challenged and encouraged!  Continue the conversation each week on our Instagram @boldlyseeking
