Truth Talks with Tara

Trigger warning: We briefly mention abuse, miscarriage, and loss.What's the difference between happiness and joy? What do we do when life is too hard to handle? How do we reclaim our joy when life has knocked us down? Nicole Jacobsmeyer, author of "Take Back Your Joy" is sharing with us her vulnerable testimony of loss, abuse, and healing to point us to the hope and joy we have in Christ, regardless of our circumstances.Check out Nicole's bookConnect with NicoleHave you gotten your copy of Tara's new book, "Surrender Your Story" yet?

Rebecca George is joining us on today's episode to encourage us all to do the thing that God has created us for. Inspired by her new book, Do the Thing: Gospel Centered Goals, Gumption, and Grace for the Go-Getter Girl, we're chatting about how to figure out what God has created us to do, what "things" we're gifted at doing, and how to not compare our journeys to others. If you want practical encouragement to go after your gospel-centered goals, this is for you.Pick up a copy of Do the Thing: https://www.amazon.com/Do-Thing-Gospel-Centered-Gumption-Go-Getter/dp/0830784357/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=do+the+thing&qid=1681236102&s=books&sr=1-1Follow Rebecca on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rebeccageorgeauthor/Have you gotten your copy of Tara's new book, "Surrender Your Story" yet?
