ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Hey friends! Welcome to Girls’ Night!
Our guest for today’s episode is my brand new friend, Scarlet Hiltibidal. Scarlet is a wife, a mom, a writer and the author of an amazing book called, Afraid of All The Things. She’s hilarious, she’s wise, she loves Jesus like crazy, and you are going to positively love her.
In today’s episode, Scarlet is talking to those of us who totally wrestle with fear of all the things (um… this is so me) and she’s going to show us how we can find peace and rest and security and JESUS in the midst of it all.
In this episode, Scarlet tells us the story of the day when she actually came face-to-face with her biggest fear and lived through a real life tornado. And she’ll share with us why when that moment arrived, she wasn’t actually afraid.
Friends, if you’ve ever struggled with fear and anxiety and if you’ve ever wondered where to find God and security and peace in the midst of it, this episode is for you. (And in this episode, you’re going to get to hear just how much this episode was for me. I totally struggle with fear of all the things, and Scarlet’s words have helped so much!)
