Our friend and teammate Mary Wiley is back on the podcast!

Spiritual formation is not a new term by any means, but it is one that we're hearing more often these days. A wide range of things point to growing in Christlikeness, so we invited Eunice Chung on the podcast to talk about how art and the Christian imagination, as well as some of the spiritual disciplines, point to growing in Christlikeness.

Last year at Lifeway Women’s Leadership Forum, Elizabeth and Kelly asked different women’s ministry leaders the question, “How has God’s faithfulness marked you in your ministry?” Julie Woodruff came into the podcast studio to listen back to those clips and also share how God’s faithfulness has marked her in her own ministry. We loved hearing these leaders' testimonies of God's faithfulness in their lives.  You can see Julie, along with Jen Wilkin, Kelly Minter, Elizabeth Woodson, and Steve Cuss, at Lifeway Women’s Leadership Forum this year on November 7–8.
