Description

Episode 3 // Hey friend! Today we are digging into what it means to love God well and why that is meaningful in our everyday lives.
Do you feel close with God? How is your spiritual growth? For most of us, we've hit a season where the Bible was confusing, our prayer life felt awkward, and we've gotten overwhelmed by the checklist of things a Christian "must do."
If this is you, sweet sister, lay it down! Lay that baggage at the foot of the cross. 
God gives us only three things that are necessary to love him well. And that's what we're unpacking in today's episode - WHAT does it mean to love God well? WHY is that meaningful in our every day lives?
This is the start of a mini-series looking at the four pillars of the Love Your People Well™ Podcast (love God, love yourself, love family, love others). For each one, we'll dig into WHAT it means, WHY it is meaningful in your life, and HOW you can do it with practical strategies!
Today, we're jumping in - WHAT does it really mean to love God well? WHY does it matter?

Friend, I know how much care, effort, time, and energy you put into loving your family. You pour out your heart for your kids, invest in your marriage, manage the house - and you’re making every effort to keep Jesus at the center of it all. But I also know how overwhelming family life can be! We live in such a distracting world. And even the best relationships eventually include some disappointment, discouragement, or a season of distance. We get stuck in a rut, we give in to some mom anger (or mom guilt), and we lose track of our own mental health or spiritual growth. How do we love our people well when we’re running on empty? When we’re running out of ideas, running out of energy, or running out of patience? When we’re spiritually dry and pouring from an empty cup? I’m Jess, and I believe that God not only can equip and encourage us in these hard moments of life family, but I also believe that He delights to do so. He uses every moment for growth and goodness. I believe that He creates us for relationship - with him and with each other. In my 10+ years as a marriage and family therapist, I’ve helped hundreds of women strengthen their family relationships. As a Christian, a wife, and a mom, I know that Christian family life is hard work. But, my friend, it is also holy work. Your marriage, motherhood, and family relationships are wildly important! And, let’s not forget, so is your own mental health, emotional wellness, and spiritual growth. On this podcast, you’ll not only find biblical encouragement for your family life, you’ll find practical tips and relationship strategies that I use in my own home and with hundreds of women in the counseling room. Twice a week, we’ll look together at how we can love God, love ourselves, love our family, and love others. Want to connect further?
