Y'all get ready...I got to sit down with my dear friend, Bianca Juarez Olthoff and we get LOUD and have a LOT of words to say! Bianca is an amazing Bible teacher and writer and I can't wait for you all to hear this conversation. We talk about her experience starting a church plant as a female lead communicator, what makes resilience and grit different for Christians, and how to determine God's voice over our own. Bianca's newest book, Grit Don't Quit, is such a gift! I'm so thankful for Bianca and her friendship.
