These Are The Days

Toxic thinking: it’s a daily fight. And now, more than ever, our world is battling toxic thoughts. With what is happening around us, it is hard to get out of our heads. But we CAN take captive our thoughts and have authority over our minds. Our good friend, Jennie Allen, is back on the show to have a TIMELY conversation around her new book, Get Out Of Your Head which is all about stopping the spiral of toxic thinking. (Seriously how timely!). We know you'll LOVE this conversation and find it so valuable in this season. All things mentioned in this episode are linked HERE.

After a ton of prayer, endless hours of conversation, and plenty of tears, Jeremy + Audrey have decided to close the shop, Always More. If you have been following Audrey for a while, you know how difficult it was for her to make this decision. ⁣These words, inspired by Ephesians 3:20, are a reminder to ALWAYS believe in the MORE that is within, through Christ. Over the past 15 years, ALWAYS MORE has not only been a life mantra for Audrey, but it has also become a community, a clothing line, and a source of hope, inspiration, and encouragement to women around the world. There are countless stories about how ALWAYS MORE has helped so many people through loss, heartbreaking diagnosis’s, mental illness, miscarriages, becoming a mom, athletics, starting a business, or pursuing a dream. More than they ever imagined! ⁣⁣⁣We hope the shop closing doesn’t stop the ALWAYS MORE message continue to spread. The beautiful thing about encouragement is that it’s free to give, but it could be of infinite worth to the person receiving it. And that’s what we hope ALWAYS MORE will always be. ⁣#alwaysmore All things mentioned in this episode are linked HERE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
