The book takes you through a spiritual journey guided by St. Therese of Lisieux — it's basically a spiritual take on the modern minimalist movement to help you downsize, declutter, and detach, while growing in virtue in the process.

The holidays are a great reminder to let go and to simplify while growing in faith and virtue!

In this episode we share:

• Why the modern minimalism movement is missing the mark
• My simple storage system for all my kids artwork, memorabilia and childhood memories
• The secret to detaching to things so you can experience more joy and freedom
• The role trust plays in the process of decluttering
• How to start letting go of clutter, bad habits & sin

Today's episode is a topic I know a lot of us parents really care about and also struggle with- protecting our kids from all the dangers of the Internet and technology.

We're talking about social media, TV and streaming shows, online bullying, predators, pornography, screen addiction… it feels like there is an endless and growing list of online dangers facing our kids, doesn't it?

In this episode, I share a bit about where we're at in the stage of technology and parenting and the incident that really opened my eyes (and inspired me to cancel Netflix).

My guest is an expert in the field of protecting kids online.

Chris McKenna is the founder of Protect Young Eyes, a team of passionate researchers, educators and presenters who help create safe digital spaces for kids.

The website and free app will help you protect your family and to become, as they promise, "predator-proof, porn-resilient, and screen-wise."

In this episode of The AMPLIFY Show, I talk with Blake Guichet aka "The Girl Named Blake" on Instagram and the author of the newly released Confessions of a Crappy Christian: Real-Life Talk about All the Things Christians Aren't Sure We're Supposed to Say—and Why They Matter to God.

Blake is one of those brave voices speaking truth to hot topics like Roe v Wade, politics, and theology.

She boldly shares about the sanctity of life and defending life from a Christian perspective when it seems many Christian influencers stay silent.

I think she's my soul sister, summing up all of my thoughts so eloquently on the Internet, without concern of ruffling some feathers.

Writing a book with "Crappy Christian" in the title, I knew I had to have her on the show.

If you're meeting Blake for the first time here on the show, you're welcome- so glad to introduce you to her! Go follow her on Instagram @thegirlnamedblake and grab her book, out now!
