#146 [Hold on to Hope this Advent] with Jen Ludwig

Do you need a reminder that hoping in Jesus is an active practice?

Advent is a time of expectant hope, and it’s an invitation to increase our focus on our Savior in preparation for the celebration of Christmas.

While part of hoping is waiting, we don’t wait passively.

My guest, Jen Ludwig, and I are talking all about holding on to the hope we have in Jesus and intentionally embracing Advent this season.

#145 [Chase God’s Glory Through Your Grief] with Dorina Lazo Gilmore-Young

Are you grieving a loss?

You likely are. We experience loss every day. Sometimes, it’s smaller, like moving away from a friend or a city you loved, and sometimes, it’s extremely significant, like the death of a family member.

But through it all, we can be looking for God’s glory. And when we search for it, we will see it.

My guest, Dorina Lazo Gilmore-Young, is sharing her personal story of loss and the miraculous gift God gave her family through it. She’s encouraging us to chase God’s glory through our grief, too.

#144 [Deepen Your Relationship with God] with Jeannie Cunnion

Do you want more of Jesus? Do you desire a deeper life with God?

The depth of intimacy is determined by you.

God has already restored the relationship by sending Jesus. He is already pursuing us. It’s up to us to intentionally pursue Him. Jeannie Cunnion, today’s guest and author of Closer to God, says “we will not grow closer to Him on accident.”

So how do we deepen our relationship with God? Listen in!
