Welcome back to The Rooted Podcast with Amber Hicks!

In this episode, I’m sitting down with my friend Lori Newell. Lori has spent years faithfully serving kids and families, equipping leaders, and helping the next generation understand what it means to know and follow Jesus.

Lori serves as the Kids Director at The Church of Eleven22 and is the co-author of The Big Brave Choice alongside Pastor Joby Martin. Together, they created this resource to help kids clearly understand the gospel and what it looks like to walk in forgiveness.

In this conversation, we talk about Lori’s journey of faith and ministry, the heart behind The Big Brave Choice, and what she has learned through years of investing in kids, parents, and leaders. We also talk about discipleship, parenting, and what it looks like to faithfully invest in the next generation.

She is the author of Jesus & Your Mental Health, a book exploring the intersection of biblical truth and mental and emotional health.

In this episode, I’m sharing a little of the story behind Rooted, where the idea came from, why I believe these conversations matter, and what I hope we can learn from the people we’ll hear from along the way.
