Jesus challenges us to love him more than anyone or anything else in our lives, even our own families. That is part of the cost of being his disciple, but only part! He also tells us that we must renounce all we have in order to pursue heavenly wisdom… and we must do it willingly, without compulsion, and of our own free will. That’s a tall order, but he promises us help in the form of the Holy Spirit. How can we turn down so great a gift?

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.
