    Emily P. Freeman On How to Walk Into a Room

    Emily P. Freeman On How to Walk Into a Room

    Emily P. Freeman spends a lot of time thinking, talking, and writing about discernment and decision-making–doing the next right thing. She hosts The Next Right Thing podcast and created The Next Right Thing Guided Journal. Her latest book is How to Walk Into a Room: The Art of Knowing When to Stay and When to Walk Away. In this conversation, Emily and Jonathan Rogers talk about pointing and calling, the difference between discernment and decision-making, and the counterintuitive truth that, when it comes to discerning the next best step, remembering is more important than predicting.

Creativity in light of resurrection

Encouragement for creatives of all kinds, as the speaker and his guests often talk through the creative process, it’s joys, and struggles..all with a redemptive point of view.
