This is the story of a man
who chose his own name.
And this is the story of a name handed down from mother to daughter
to son.
If Episode 19 was all about letting go of hurtful
labels, this episode is about the importance of claiming a
name.
Christie and Lisa-Jo return to their conversation in Episode 11
(When Life Feels Like a Series of Interruptions) to share more
about the tragic loss of Christie's brother-in-law three years ago,
and the legacy he left for his wife and young children. Lisa-Jo
shares more about the loss of her mother, and the legacy of her
name "Jo."
What's in a name? This conversation invites you to consider what a
good gift a name can be and why it could be time for you to claim
yours.
Listener invitation: We LOVE hearing from
listeners. Tell us about your name! We would love to hear your
story. Be sure and tag Lisa-Jo @lisajobaker and Christie @christiepurifoy and use the hashtag

The newest book from Sarah
Beth Marr is out now! And it is a
beauty.
Too many of us are overwhelmed and underfed. We go,
go, go, but our souls are weary. Whispers and
Wildflowers invites us to retreat. Within these pages,
you can find rest and renewal, peace and contentment.
In this inspiring and practical book, Sarah Beth Marr helps us
withdraw from busyness in order to renew and refresh the garden of
our own souls.

Spotlight Author, Michelle DeRusha, right

Gardeners familiar with the technique called "pruning open" know
that the secret to healthy plants and trees lies in subtracting
rather than adding. With powerful stories and revealing research,
Michelle shows us how we begin to flourish as we let go of
our false selves and allow God to prune us open.
