The Roving Hearts Podcast

What are you watching? What are you listening to? Who are you letting speak into your life? Does it line up with Jesus? As you think through these questions while you listen to todays episode, remember that what we see, hear, and read influences us whether we know it or not. And the more we let in, the more we pour out. So what are you pouring out? Does it look like Jesus? Or does it look like the world?

Starting new things, staying motivated, and being consistent.
