What is the Kingdom story? On today's podcast, Kelly and Elizabeth talk with Christine Hoover about her new Bible study, Seek First the Kingdom. Hear how God used a personal experience and the book of Matthew to do a significant work in her.  "Look beyond what we can see in this life and what we can see through eyes of faith what He is building in the hearts of those who are submitting to Him."  How does God challenge us to think about who is truly blessed what it means to be truly blessed? Join us to find out! Christine Hoover is married to Kyle, who is the pastor of a church they planted in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2008. Together they have three boys. When she's not corralling kids or serving alongside her husband in ministry, she's writing and speaking. The grace of Christ upended her legalistic life over a decade ago, and ever since then, I've been passionate about exploring and sharing about how that grace impacts every inch of life. Show Notes:With All Your Heart Searching for Spring Messy Beautiful Friendship From Good to Grace The Church Planting Wife Seek First the Kingdom By Faith Podcast How to Thrive as a Pastor's Wife (coming soon!)
