Jeremy and April Pryor are joined by Annalisa Barraza to talk about Annalisa's book, You Are Because He Is.

Annalisa has worked for Family Teams for almost 5 years, so it's a joy to have her on the show in this capacity and dive into the power of speaking blessings over our children.

The book emphasizes the importance of speaking the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus over children to help shape their identity in Christ.

This episode also explores the cultural challenges of identity for young women, the role of family in shaping identity, and the significance of grounding identity in Christ rather than emotions or cultural pressures.
