Episode 35: Priority 2: Your Heart

38 minutes

In today’s episode, Lisa and Laura dive into lesson 3 of Ordering Your Priorities, Priority 2: Your Heart. Most of us live as if our hearts aren’t a priority. We tend to put other people’s hearts before our own, believing that’s what a good woman is supposed to do. But guess what? We matter to God. Our wild and beautiful hearts are the most essential parts of us, and if we don’t tend to them properly, we run the risk of becoming physically, mentally, and spiritually spent. Are you ready to build the good life by prioritizing your heart? Well, then…grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and click play!

Open your Heart to our key Scripture.

Psalm 56:9: My wanderings you have noted; are my tears not stored in your flask, recorded in your book?

Matthew 16:25: Whoever wants to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
