Ep. 67 - Our Gifts, His Glory - Interview with Courtney Reissig

On episode 67 of the Adorned Podcast we continue our series “Our Gifts, His Glory” with a conversation with Courtney Reissig. Courtney is a wife, mother, writer, and speaker that has a heart for helping women grow in their knowledge of God’s Word. She shares her story of how a potentially life-threatening diagnosis during her last pregnancy helped free her from some of her struggles by reminding her to steward her giftings for God’s glory. This conversation was a great reminder of God’s trustworthiness, his sovereignty, and his goodness. We pray that you are encouraged as you listen.

Quotes:

“We have a responsibility to steward the giftings that God has given us. We don’t get to just check out and not do it because we might be glory seeking.” -Courtney Reissig

“Even if you’re not sure if your motives are right, keep moving forward and allow God to sanctify those motives as you move forward.”

“So much of our discontentment, our comparison, our envy, and jealousy, all of those heart responses to what we don’t have, are owing to the fact that we think God isn’t trustworthy. When I remember all that He has done, I’m reminded that He is trustworthy!” -Courtney Reissig

“God’s sovereignty paired with his goodness is just incredibly comforting.” -Courtney Reissig
