200. My Word of The Year + Why Prayer is SO Hard! Some Encouragement + Lessons From Wise Men + Women

This is a little longer than 500 seconds today…but I pray it is time well spent! I’m sharing my word of the year, why prayer is hard, and some encouragement to start this year well and to pray more (even though it’s hard). I’m also talking about the importance to get more intentional about our phone use this new year. Amy Eilers from House of Eilers and I invite you to join us for a 21-DAY SCRIPTURE PHONE CHALLENGE! I’m calling it the “grab a book, not your phone” challenge. You will get a weekly email for the 3 weeks of the challenge (3 emails total) and you’ll have a daily scripture meditation on the podcast that’s 5 minutes or less! Let’s become moms who pray more and look at our phones less. Let’s be COUNTER-CULTURAL by saying NO to excessive phone use and YES to present, joyful, God-centered living. Want to join us? Go to bit.ly/21dayscripturechallenge to sign up today! We start on January 10, 2022 and we end of January 30, 2022. [If you want these emails after the challenge has ended, no problem! Just go to the link and you’ll get all of the emails right away and you can do this challenge at any time at your own pace.] May you have a blessed start to the new year and we’ll see you inside the phone challenge! CONNECT WITH AMY on her blog at www.houseofeilers.com or on social at www.Instagram.com/houseofeilers - she’s one of the only moms I like to follow on the ‘gram (even tho I’m currently off social media). .
