ANECDOTE

Writing Through Physical Crisis

Beth Moore described losing sensation in her feet and needing trees, family, and braces to help her during walks.
She wrote Walking With God while undergoing multiple surgeries and only revealed that struggle at the end of the study.

ADVICE

Do Fewer Books And More Practice

Stop consuming only and start practicing spiritual disciplines; get into the scriptures and act on them.
Remember there's no way to fail when you earnestly pursue God in Jesus' name.

INSIGHT

No Single Way To Walk With God

Beth found that 'walking with God' looks different across biblical eras and people, so imitation is not the goal.
Core disciplines (prayer, scripture) recur, but personal expression of faith is meant to vary.

Today on the show, I get to talk to my friend—and one of our spiritual mothers and mentors—Beth Moore. We talk about her experience with her surgeries and recoveries last year and learning how to 100% lean on the Lord, and what it looks like to grow with God and sit with Him everyday. Plus, we got to talk about her new study: Walking with God. She’s created this study to help us understand what it looked like to walk with God in different eras of Scripture. It’s fascinating.

I think this conversation is SO helpful as we start talking about the small, daily habits we can lean into this year to increase our spiritual strength.

In case you missed it, we have a brand new Substack! If you’re not familiar with what that is, it’s like a blog… so if you’ve been around THAT long, you may remember the ole’ AnnieBlogs days. Over on the substack, after every episode, you’ll find a deeper dive from me and the team where we’re talking more about that episode, offering some encouragement as you process, and giving you questions to go through. There’s also some additional resources that will be suggested if you want to really dive into whatever it is we’re discussing that episode. Our invitation to you is this: give us one hour a week listening to the podcast and 10 minutes a day answering the questions on the Substack. We think this practice will help you kick start a journey of getting spiritually stronger this year. The first post on our substack (from the Epiphany episode) is free to read so you can check it out, but after that, the subscription is $5/month. You can find it at spirituallystronger.com!
