I changed my approach to reading Scripture after this chat. Lisa’s encouragement to slow down made an instant shift simplifying my attempt to absorb Biblical truth.
We chat about her journey as a mom, a wife and a seminary student. How God has blessed our church with her gift of teaching and the robust mini retreats she and I have started for the women at Rock Creek Fellowship!
If you're in Chattanooga and you wanna attend "Muffins and Mugs" this Saturday morning, August 16th, you will hear Lisa teach and then you will understand why I'm so excited to have her in my sphere!
Check out the show notes below for all the resources she mentions.
Enjoy!
