Happy New Year and Welcome to the Monica Swanson podcast!  If you missed last week’s episode, I hope you can go back and have a listen (it’s SHORT!) In this new year I am rebranding the podcast with a new name and a broader scope, but the heart of the podcast has not changed.  I am SO excited to dive into some great topics and interviews ahead. (Also: Welcome to the girl moms joining us!) Today’s interview is special for so many reasons. First, Wendy Speake was my very first guest over 3.5 years ago when I launched the Boy Mom Podcast; it only made sense she would also help me kick off this new season of the podcast!  Second, Wendy has a new book coming out this month which is so much of my heart for all of us this year.  The 40-Day FEAST is a follow up to her books, “The 40-Day Sugar Fast” and “The 40-Day Social Media Fast.” The Feast she is referring to is the kind where we consume God’s Word…learning to read it, study it, and hide it in our hearts.  And friends: Living in this world today I cannot emphasize enough how important this is.  I am really excited about Wendy’s new book and I am excited to feast on God’s Word in the New Year alongside all of you!  (Deal?! Deal!). Find all of the links Wendy mentioned in show notes: www.monicaswanson.com/Wendy-Speake-Feast Podcast page (for all episodes) www.monicaswanson.com/podcast
