On today’s episode of the Journeywomen I’m chatting with my very own Brooks Beless! If this is your first episode and you have no idea who that is, Brooks is my husband of seven years as of today! Today we answered questions you submitted on Instagram about our love story, our family, and upcoming plans for Journeywomen since this is our very last episode before my maternity leave! Don’t worry, the Lord willing we will be back to airing new episodes of Journeywomen in 2019, but until then, let me share a few of my favorite moments from 2018:   Episode 74 on the Will of God with Jen Wilkin   Episode 65 on Same Sex Attraction, Identity, and the Christian with Jackie Hill Perry   Episode 34 on Spiritual Disciplines with Brad Evangelista   Episode 61 on Growing in Godliness with Nana Dolce   What a year it’s been! It’s such a joy to get to journey alongside you all. Be sure to subscribe to the podcast so you won’t miss new episodes with guests like these when we come back on April 1.
