"Get behind me, Satan" is common spiritual warfare declaration to make, but what if while we are rebuking the enemy, we are actually missing what God is doing in our lives at the very same time?

In today's episode, I have my dear friend and mentor Carissa Hjellming back on the podcast to talk about, well, here are some highlights:

  • How to stay in relationship with God when our prayers aren't answered like we expected
  • What to do when trusting God is difficult, but we really do want to lean on the Holy Spirit
  • Biblical encouragement that we can anchor ourselves in, when the going gets tough

 

When it comes to discernment, growing in hearing God's voice, and building out a daily prayer life in our quiet time, the conversation we have today is so vastly important, and it really is the heartbeat of this podcast. I am so grateful to Carissa for taking the time to come onto the show to share her wisdom with us.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
