ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Hey friends! Welcome to Girls’ Night!
In today’s episode, you're going to be hearing from my very best friend in the whole entire world, Kelsey. Kelsey is a wife, a mama, the assistant director of my favorite college ministry, and an amazing makeup artist! (She did my makeup for my wedding!)
Now, if you've read my book, The Lipstick Gospel, you may be wondering, is this the same Kelsey? And it totally is! She and Michelle and I studied abroad in Spain together and I talk about them both in my book! You are just going to love her.
Kels is amazing — she’s my go-to person for advice about pretty much every single area of my life, especially my relationship with God, and that’s what we’re going to be talking about in today’s episode.
One of the questions I get more than any other from my sweet readers and listeners is, “How do I get closer to God? How do I get to know Him better?” and that’s what we’re going to be talking about!
We’re going to talk about how to have a quiet time, what that even means, how to journal, and pray, and read your Bible (in a fun way, I promise!). We’ll be sharing some really practical and actionable ways for you to connect with God more deeply and we’ll be sharing what our quiet times look like these days. You are just going to love our conversation.
