Episode #35 Finding Peace in Christ and Pursuing It with Debbie Patrick


Listen Later

Thank you for joining me for the latter half of my second podcast season! We’ll be focusing on finding peace in Christ, which I believe is the result of finding rest in Christ that we explored last spring.

My first guest is author Debbie Patrick, a ministry friend that I’ve met in real-life! When we had a chance to talk over plates of burgers and fries this past summer, Debbie shared with me the journey the Lord is bringing her through as she’s experienced a “too much” season. In this episode, we discussed:

  • The details of her “too much” season
  • Debbie’s realization of her need to pray for peace and receive it
  • Not allowing previous anxiety into today (when the anxiety inducing event has passed)
  • Ways to find moments of beauty and joy in the midst of hard days
  • Debbie leaves us with a few truthful treasures with regards to pursuing peace
  • You can grab the PDF I mentioned during the mid-reel, 10 great questions to ask when reading the Bible, at: https://mailchi.mp/18893c5c043d/10-great-questions

    You can connect with Debbie at https://anchoredandalive.org as well as on Facebook @anchoredandalive and Instagram @anchoredandalive. Her book, What’s Next, can be ordered HERE

    Author bio: Debbie is a survivor of cancer, metal poisoning, and chronic pain. She’s been a wife to one amazing guy for 35 years and has two beautiful daughters. They live in Western Washington. Speaking, writing, and spending time near the water are what she enjoys most. She is an advocate for metal testing and shared her story with the FDA in Washington D.C. Her goal is to see mandatory metal testing before all metal implants.
