This episode of 'Longing for More' challenges you to evaluate whether you are fully living your faith and trusting God or trying to do life on your terms.

Despite what the world tells us, we can find freedom in letting go and trusting God. If you long for a simpler life, it may be time to shift your focus and look at life from a different view.

Our search for peace, hope, and joy during the holidays can often get lost in a rush to fit everything in during this season of preparation.

This episode of Longing for More offers a short prayer to help you focus on the reason for the season and avoid losing sight of the focus of our celebration, Jesus Christ.

Don't let the distractions and disappointments of unfulfilled plans keep you from your true purpose during this holiday season or into the new year.

Believers love Christmas because it helps us focus on Christ and the incredible gift He is to us. We use Advent, the weeks leading up to Christmas, to prepare for His coming--both by remembering His birth and looking forward to His return.

If that's the case, shouldn't we celebrate every day as Advent?

In this episode of Longing for More, I share the last chapter of my new book, A Different View, titled, The Gift of Light.

Listen and be inspired to look for Jesus in all aspects of life and live your faith every day.

Find the book in your favorite online bookstore, at the Alley Exchange in Pierre, or better yet, ask your local bookstore to carry it!
