Truth Talks with Tara

For our second week of book club, we're recapping last week as well as diving into the next chapters - three and four. We're talking about how what we crave and give our attention to affects our spiritual health and how to reorient our priorities. And to wrap up, we're touching on identity and remembrance.

My new book, "⁠Overbooked and Overwhelmed: How to Keep Up With God When You're Just Trying to Keep Up With Life⁠" is out now and to celebrate, we're kicking off a month-long podcast book club. Each week, we'll walk through a few chapters together, hear the raw stories of how this book came to be and reflect on what this means for our own lives. You'll need a copy of the book as we'll be calling out specific parts of the book and I'll be setting you loose on reading and reflection questions!

Tara's book is now available ⁠here⁠ - also in audiobook format! Find it in your local Barnes and Noble as well as select Walmart's across the nation.

Returning to the show is a truly JOYFILLED (no pun intended) guest - my real life friend, Rachel Awtrey. In this episode, we laugh and shed real tears together as we talk about what joy looks like despite our circumstances. We get real and talk about what to do when we don't really like our lives, but we know that God promises good things for us. How do we hold on and see the beauty right where we are?

⁠If you loved this conversation, you'll love Rachel's new book.

Tara and Rachel's books are coming out on the same day, so while you're at it, grab Tara's newest book for your summer/fall reading: ⁠⁠Overbooked and Overwhelmed: How to Keep Up With God When You're Just Trying to Keep Up With Life.⁠

I have to confess something. I've broken down and burnt myself out more than I'm proud of. I've overbooked and overextended myself to the point where I've neglected my relationship with God. In today's episode, I'm sharing about those seasons and speaking to the one who feels exhausted, weary, and unsure how to keep up with God when they're just trying to keep up with life. Inspired by my upcoming book, "Overbooked and Overwhelmed", you'll walk away with gospel-centered encouragement to face your overwhelm and exhaustion.

Whether you are stressed in the morning about the day ahead or desperate to calm your mind in the evening before bed, peace often feels elusive—and sometimes God does too. But even in the midst of life's uncertainties, God is ever present and ready to offer His comfort, if only you seek Him. Join me and my friend, Kara Stout, as we talk about our own struggle with anxiety, coming to God with our grief, and finding peace that truly lasts.

Growing your family is one of the most exciting endeavors, but it's also full of unknowns and worries. What will our current children think and react to the change? How can we as parents handle juggling more kids to care for and prioritize a godly marriage? Aubrey Coleman, mama of three and devoted to ministry (online and off) is here to talk us through it all.

If I had one word for this conversation, it would be "sweet." Aubrey is sharing biblically helpful truth for how to help our littles not just adjust, but rejoice with the change that comes with a new sibling, as well as how to stay connected to your spouse and not fall into the "roommate phase."
