#135 [How to Brave Change and Welcome Growth] with Andi Andrew
Are you going through a big change right now? Or maybe lots of little ones?
Change is inevitable and even good change can be hard.
Author Andi Andrew joins me to chat about how we show up amid the changes we face, how it’s okay to grieve the losses, show gratitude for what’s next, and how, through the transition, we can grow to be more like Christ.
Andi reminds us that we have a choice. We can react with bitterness and anger or we can allow God to do His work in us and trust where He’s taking us.
You’ll hear us talk about…
The grief of letting go
Change that molds us
Avoiding vs. welcoming transition
Processing change with integrity
Friendship through transition
