November 12, 2024 • Jody Gras & Shawna Beyer

Do you know who God says you are? Do you know why you’re here? Your God given purpose for being here? You are uniquely designed to show the world who God is. In this episode Jody and Shawna process in real time what they are learning about their God-given identity. In episode 73 Shawna shared what she’s learning from Jamie Winship’s Living Fearless and today they revisit that topic and Jody shares what she is learning as well. It will be a lifelong discovery but we’re glad to be starting it with you.
