332 - Dwelling in Christ with Jon Bailey

Every January, I take on a Contentment Challenge. 90 days of no shopping to reset my spending and my heart. This year, I've done something a little different. I turned it into a whole year-long practice. Today, I am recording live from the messy middle three quarters of the way through with what I've loved, what has been hard, and everything in-between.

I am back after a nice, long summer break with my kids. Today, I am sharing some of what God has been showing me. We're going to talk a little bit about Psalm 37:4, about what it looks like to live in integrity, and I'm going to share my summer health stack—all the things that I tried and genuinely loved this summer that have helped me feel strong, energized, and well in my body. Think of it as a "I really missed you, and let's catch up" kind of episode.
