Our precious friend Amy Ragon is back by popular demand! We love Amy for many reasons, especially her ability to have the deepest, richest conversations in the most relatable way. We talk about what it means to leave a legacy (shoutout Reading Rainbow!) and how to evaluate who we are becoming. Amy shares what the Lord is teaching her, including some powerful encouragement for anyone in a waiting season. We talk about discipleship and how we misunderstood what it actually means. We talk about confessional community and how to identify and confess the deeply rooted sin in our life, plus how teach all of this to our children. We consider the difference in listening vs. hearing and how to honor God well in our interactions with others. This converstion is so packed and so powerful and we are grateful for it! Thank you, Amy, for always making us feel seen, heard and valued!

On legacy:

"Who are you becoming?"

"What is available and waiting for us if we just have eyes to see it?"

On discipleship:

"The gospel is always present in every conversation, even if it's not spoken. Do we have ears to hear it?"

"Every day we have to choose: am I going to follow Him with my life?"

On confession:

"When I can name my sin, it takes the power away from the enemy."

"If the devil can isolate you, he will influence you."
