Episode 79: The Gift of Awareness and Finding God in the Ordinary Happenings of Our Days with Candace Cofer
Candace Cofer is a serious ef-ficionado. You read that right. Efficiency enthusiast. She's learning to slow down and be here, thankful to be a work in progress.
As founder of The Good Day ministry, Candace inspires others to grow in their knowledge and love for Jesus and experience God in the ordinary happenings of their days. She firmly believes we connect to one another through stories.
Isn't this what Jesus modeled for us? He was the Chief Story Teller and He's still working today, writing stories in each of our lives. For this, she enjoys sharing the stories of hope He's writing in lives around her through her podcast and blog.
When not writing, Candace spends her days working in the software industry, serving her local church as a small group leader for both young adult women and middle school girls, playing volleyball or kayaking, and enjoying her long-awaited Sunday nap. She is a lover of puns and family because both provide the unexpected laugh.
In this episode, you'll learn:
-Where and when did Candace's drive for efficiency begin?...05:55
