Angie talks with Renee about the tools she uses to begin and build relationships with everyone around her, and we mean EVERYONE. She's great at doing that and she encourages the rest of us to use the tools we have to go deeper with our current friends and seek out friendships like teachers to help us grow in areas that we need and want to grow.
Farren and Angie talk about the topics they'll be discussing with guests on this podcast this fall and update everyone on what they've been doing and learning through the summer months while they've been on break from the podcast.
Hugh and Ronda Laybourn were hippies and if you have seen the Jesus Revolution movie, their lives were very similar to the stories you see in the movie. They share what they looked like for them then and how their life is different now because of it.
They both challenge us to think and live differently and to have a deep relationship with God that might not fit in the box that we have made for Him.
Janet Bly is an awarded author (blybooks.com) of over 15 inspirational books as well as over 20 western fiction novels with her husband, Stephen Bly, over the years.
The Blys were in Southern California in the early 70s and were right on the ground for the movement that brought many hippies to a relationship with Jesus Christ. As they lived and served beside a church with a basement coffee shop and an apartment complex across the street, they poured into the lives of many others.
You'll get to hear all about their journey and about how they started to write and went on to share their stories with millions of readers through the years. We are so thankful the Janet listened the the words, "You Do It" at an important time in her life.

Marilyn Nutter and April Dawn White share about their new book, Destination Hope.
Destination Hope: A Travel Companion When Life Falls Apart offers camaraderie and a beacon of hope for women who feel alone in loss, struggle, or change of circumstance. This book is not a self-help book filed with platitudes from people who think they have life figured out. Instead, Marilyn Nutter and April White link arms with the audience and encourage their readers through stories of their own hardships in widowhood and chronic illness. Readers are encouraged to see loss and hardship as part of life's journey and are constantly reminded to turn their gaze upwards, to the Purveyor of Hope. Within the pages of Destination Hope comes a sisterhood, a bond, that can be formed only through the mutual understanding of loss and the need to find hope among hardships.
Although waiting isn't fun, God does a lot to develop us before our dreams are fulfilled. It's up to us to recognize that or we can just sit and wait in the hurt and not get all that God wants for us-He wants us to be mature and complete-not lacking anything.
