Missions are not for “super Christians” who are "super-tight"with the Lord, but for every believer. The Bible talks from Genesis to Revelation about his name being exalted among the nation, that is a quote from Katherine this episode and such a wisdom filled nugget. In today's episode I have my dear friend and one of my role models -- Katherine. Katherine is someone whose heart is LITERALLY on fire for the nations, and has such cool experiences and ways the Lord has shown his heart for the world in her life. She speaks about those experiences, how the Lord brought her there and how every believer is apart of the Great Commission. This episode is a humble love letter to the Lord full of thanks for the opportunity to be on mission for Him.  The Lord  wants to use us in his GLOBAL MISSON ! How cool is that ? Katherine also gives a more in depth look at what missions and The Great Commission looks like, and how every believer has a part to play. My prayer for listeners is that their eyes and hearts become opened to LIVE SENT. 

This episode was so much fun and little different because ... it was with my sister CATE! Cate is a fireball of energy and spirit, a determined to always have the right thing prevail. She is so funny and we have the best time together, which is really heard throughout this episode. She has a big heart and is always looking out for those who may feel left out or overlooked.  She is also fashion icon and will be able to style you for every occasion. Not to mention she recently was just baptized this past summer, and has wholeheartedly surrendered her life to the Lord. A sassy yet sweet sister with a heart of gold, who is also involved in everything under the sun. You will FALL in love with her !!! We talk about comparison, resting in the Lord's plan and how to be bold and confident. We also give some fun sisterly advice and tell some pretty fun stories. Listen to the end for all the fun fashion advice from the queen herself. As always be authentically you and glorify God in all you do! 

Today's episode is with one of my favorite people and on one of my favorite topics! Kendra Evans is one of my longtime friends who has been a constant source of true genuine friendship in my life. Camp has been a huge part of her testimony and been a beautiful way for her to encounter the Lord. In this episode we talk about all the benefits of camp, how the Lord uses is and how it can be a special place for many people to met Jesus for the first time. We also speak about what to do when you leave camp, and how to not get stuck in that "camp high", as well as find true authentic community outside of camp. This episode also features what full time camp ministry would look like, and how to discern that it's right for you. A sweet episode full of laughter, joy and plenty of camp references. Enjoy, be authentically you and glorify God in all you do! 

 1 Corinthians 6:10-20 !!!!: Our body is a temple and what we do with it matters. This episode is a topic close to my heart, and one of my favorite episodes I have gotten to record! Allie is one of the greatest women I know. Allie and I became friends my freshman year and she has constantly been a role model for me since then. She is so on fire and so in pursuit of the Lord in her life. This episode we talk about all things body image, fitness, food & how to glorify the Lord through it all. It's a tricky subject but Allie has so much truth and wisdom to share, and so much knowledge. She herself has dealt with body image issues, and now is actual a workout instructor at Pure Barre. It's cool to hear Allie's story, how far she has come and gain some tips on how to navigate something as tough as this. Allie is very open about her past struggles, and my prayer is that everyone listening knows they are not alone. Not only that, but that they gain such tangible tools to be able to combat these issues, while still maintaining the heart posture of giving glory to God. This is an episode of celebration, of celebrating the body the Lord has given you and this wonderful life you get to live. I am so thankful to have someone like Allie to get to record this with.  Allie lives in her life not for the approval of man, but fully for the approval of God. She has always been a constant reminder of what true faithfulness looks like in a friend, and always makes an effort to pour into everyone around her. I hope you guys enjoy this episode as much as I did, and as always, be authentically you and glorify God in all you do !! xxx Lauren! 

What a JOY and a absolute honor it was to get to sit down with two women who I admire so much: Maia & Isla. These are two of the coolest yet wisest women you will ever meet and I had the privilege of getting to know both of them better this past summer. After learning more about each of their stories, I knew they had to be on the podcast one day! Maia is the creator and founder of MM Designs a clothing company that’s aim is to spread love, truth and light. She also has brought a community together of Christian women through her ambassador program which I had had the blessing of getting to join. She is a straight up girl boss, an FSU alum and a soon to be married women! Isla Texas A&M grad who followed the Lord’s call in obedience and boldness to Florida, to help further the MM designs ministry and company. She was such a genuine and authentic friend to me this summer! And she is about to start a brand new chapter of her life in Dallas. They both held Life Retreat, in July of this year, a weekend for college girls to experience healing, rest and community. And boy oh boy did that weekend teach me a lot, and I can’t wait to share that with you. Both of these women are sweet friends and they make everyone around them feel so loved just as our Savior loves us. In this episode we talk about the Lord's faithfulness, how ministry looks different for different people & how to daily surrender to the Lord. I hope you enjoy the episode as much as I did recording it, and as always be authentically you and glorify God in all you do! 

It was so much fun to get to have two of the sweetest sophomore girls I know drop so major wisdom on this podcast episode. Molly and Emma talk about how to look set apart while in college, how to find community and practical and applicable ways to live out your faith while being a college student. They speak on the Lord's steadfast love and faithfulness and how we can cling to that during rough seasons, challenging lab reports and sorority events. My heart for this episode is that girls listening would feel like they are not alone when it comes to the challenges they face in college life but also, that there are ways to overcome them with the power of the Lord. Molly and Emma both just finished their freshman year, so they are ripe with advice for incoming and current freshman, but also for any age listening. Hearing both girls speak will have you on fire for the Lord and ready to take on no matter what the Lord throws at you. Molly is a Phi Mu studying kinesiology and Emma is KD studying digital advertising, and I have the pleasure and joy of leading a community group with them each week. As always, be authentic, be you & glorify God in all you do! Reach out to be at 832-707-0778 if you ever need anything. xx !

In today's podcast we focus on how to have "God"fidence in the workplace and at school, how to find your purpose and be bold in those spaces. We speak about how to frame your mindset towards school and work, how to be a light to those around you. And how no one should be limited to the love of Christ.

Both these girls have helped me so much when it comes to approaching work and school in a God honoring way, and I hope they do the same for you! 

Today's episode is full of vulnerability, boldness and how freedom is found in Christ. I had the absolute JOY of getting to chat with my two best friends, Catelyn Greene and Emily Groves. Both women are bold and authentic in talking about their sin struggles and temptations, and how they found healing and freedom through the cross. This episode is full of solid wisdom, tips on accountability and all ultimately glorifying the Lord. My hope for everyone listening is that they know they are not alone, they are loved and known, they are forgiven, and how important community is to the life of a Christian. Getting to hear both of my best friends share their stories and how the Lord has worked in their life, was the greatest blessing. And I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did. Full of laughter, fun and lots of Jesus.  I cannot emphasize enough how thankful I am for these friendships, these true genuine friends.

What a timely episode! Abby drops some wisdom when it comes to be a Christian in Greek Life. We speak about how to not make it your identity, how to go into rush with a Christ-like midst, how to find community, and how to love others well as a current member.  Abby Hwang is a junior and Tri Delta at The University of Texas, and also one of my longtime best friends. She is bold, kind, and brave, and those traits are displayed throughout the episode. We have some laughs, throwbacks and reflect on the faithfulness of the Lord. Stay till the end for some Ozark fun and enjoy the episode!

I had the absolute joy of getting to interview my friend and mentor Emily Prather Fletcher. Emily speaks such wisdom and pours out truth as she speaks. This episode is filled with so much goodness and truth, and you will be writing down every world she says! We talk about everything from makeup products,  big moves, to depression, and body image, and most importantly how the Lord has sustained her and been faithful through it all. Emily has said yes to Jesus in so many parts of her life, and is obedient in her actions. There is so much to learn from Emily, enjoy the episode!
