    Hannah Keeley

    On this episode of Thriving Beyond Belief, Cheryl Scruggs welcomes Hannah Keeley Hey there! I'm Hannah ... a mom of seven, a wife of one, and a lover of Jesus. I believe there is God-given greatness in everyone. And I have an insatiable desire to help them discover this and let the world see who they really are. Oh, and I’m crazy about helping moms. "Because I know what it's like." After a few kids, I found myself out of shape, overwhelmed, deep in debt, and surrounded by clutter. I knew something had to change when I found myself sobbing uncontrollably in the laundry pile (at least it was clean laundry). "When I realized no one was going to come in and rescue me, I decided to rescue myself." With God’s Word and bull-headed determination, I was able to create a better life for myself. In fact, better than I ever imagined. Now I help moms everywhere do the same. Related Links: WEBSITE: Hannah Keeley

    Laura L. Smith

    On this episode of Thriving Beyond Belief, Cheryl Scruggs welcomes Laura L. Smith! How many to-dos, responsibilities, relationships...are you  juggling? I don’t want this frantic feeling of trying to keep it all together but fearing that at any moment it will all come tumbling down. Do you?It’s urgent for us to slow down. For our bodies and our souls. We can do this. We need to for our physical, mental, and spiritual health. Jesus promises us the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control. But if we’re scrolling or speeding so quickly through our lives, it’s hard to notice any of that richness or fullness, let alone make room for it or tap into it. When we’re running full speed ahead, we don’t feel like we can muster any patience or self-control, and we struggle to recall when we last felt anything resembling peace. We’re zooming around so fast we don’t have time to accept lovely invitations from God to connect with Him through prayer, reading our Bibles, being present, and celebrating the good stuff.But I want to. Do you? Are you ready to try? Dive into the pages of The Urgency of Slowing Down and go on a journey with Laura L. Smith of unpacking what's in our lives, why it's there, what we don't need, what we can let go of, and what we can add in... so we can step into the unforced rhythms of grace Jesus invites us into.
