Katie Smith
No one person is just one thing. I'm a wife, mum, daughter, sister, friend, pastor, cleaner, medic, driver, cook... so, when I'm so many different things in different seasons of life - how can I be More Like Him in every day? This podcast is a chance to stop and consider that question one topic at a time. To help ourselves we'll break things up into; Moments to Marvel (testimony of God's work), Moments to Learn (big theological words in Christian faith), Moments to Lead, Moments to Grow (Opening God's Word together) and Moments to Life (talking through real-life issues like parenting, marriage, sickness, work, mental health and so much more).Theme Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/northwestern/hometownLicense code: COCYAWICV2VB44BU
