    Embracing a Life of Awe and Gratitude with Carolyn Lacey

    Earlier this year my publisher let me know that my book "Grateful" wasn't going to be a stand-alone book, it was going to be the first in an entire series of 30-day devotionals! I was so thrilled to get to sit down this week with the author of that next book, Carolyn Lacey, and chat about her new book "Amazed: 30 Days of Growing in Awe of God." We talk about the surprising overlap between a life of gratitude and awe, how understanding God's character can deepen our own sense of awe, and the surprising ways awe leads us to an everyday life of peace and joy.

    Between Dreams and Rest: Striking the Balance Between God's Calling and His Equipping

    How do you find rest while also following your dreams? In this episode I sit down with my good friend April Fry, co-founder of Ten Minas Ministry, a retreat center and haven for pastors and their families to find rest, relaxation and renewal. Listen in as April shares how God used years of near-constant moves to connect her and her family to the church abroad and open their hearts with a deep desire to start a ministry to prevent pastoral burn-out. We talk about rest, the importance of self-care and how coming to the end of ourselves isn't the break-down of our dreams, but rather the very beginning of God showing up to do what only He can do.
