Katie and Julia are excited to begin a theme of loneliness in this new season. Well, excited to be together chatting with new friends, not really excited that so many of us have had such hard and lonely times in our lives. It’s no coincidence that Katie and Julia are continuing to learn so much from one of their favorite podcasters/authors/teachers, John Mark Comer. And Katie opens up this episode with some amazing quotes she’s heard from his podcast. It just sets the stage for this season in a way only God can orchestrate!
So today, we kick off this season, that we’re calling Stories of Loneliness, with an amazing gal: Lauren Fernandez! We had the best time chatting with her as she authentically shares her story. Lauren isn’t new to sharing her story, she has a blog (momfaithfumbles.com) where she encourages her readers over and over again just by sharing what God is showing her. In this episode we hope to encourage those who are lonely with some practical steps towards seeing a shimmer in the hard. Lauren shares how she learned to “lament to the One who can carry it.” because He truly cares and can use even seasons of loneliness for good in our lives!
