Description

Jamie Swank is one of the most influential people I've had in my life so far. You'll hear us talk about this in our conversation, but she stepped in as a mentor/family to me in a uniquely challenging season years ago – and she's continued to care for me well through this one. There is much to love about Jamie, but a few things I appreciate most that you'll get to see for yourself are her thoughtfulness in life, curiosity to learn, the way she shows others they are worth loving, and her honesty with God. My hope is that this episode feels like you are pulling up a chair to one of our infamous dinner dates (God Bless Texas Roadhouse) where we talk about good reads and what we're learning in our slice of life lately.
