Where does the human body fit into our theology? In Scripture, humans are said to be "created in the image of God,” but overall the creation of our bodies is a great mystery, and we cannot say it has been created in the image of God without trying to understand what that phrase means. We don't get to choose its color, its height, or even the basic functionality of its parts. It remains largely an unpredictable, dynamic space that we must learn to inhabit, love, and enjoy as the most basic gift we've been given. Both of our guests this week learned to love the bodies that they were given. Dr. Amy Kenny is a disabled scholar and lecturer in Shakespearean studies at the University of California Riverside. She celebrates the beautiful vulnerability of her disabled body within the theology of the image of God and she advocates for disabled and unhoused people. Anna Lind Thomas is a comedian who overcame perceptions of being the "ugly duckling" when compared to her sister by taking time to hone her comedic craft, learn radical self-compassion, and celebrate the unpredictability of our human bodies.    Links, Products, and Resources Mentioned: Jesus Calling Podcast Jesus Calling Jesus Always Jesus Listens Past interview: Miles McPherson Upcoming interview: Tara Cole Genesis 1:27 NIV   Dr. Amy Kenny Romans 1:20 NIV John 9 NIV Luke 14 NIV My Body Is Not a Prayer Request: Disability Justice in the Church   Anna Lind Thomas I'm Not Ready for This Interview Quotes: “I started to realize that if the invisible qualities of God's divine nature can be clearly seen in that crookedness of trees, in the bouncing kangaroo, in the languishing lion, and the waddling penguin, then why can't I see it in myself, in my own disabled body?” - Dr. Amy Kenny  “I practice really acknowledging the beautiful vulnerability of my life. I listen to my body and acknowledge that she is a temple and I try to behold those invisible qualities of divine nature throughout creation as a practice every day to make sure I am rooted.” - Dr. Amy Kenny “My disabled body declares the truth that we are from ash and we will one day return to ash. And that day might be sooner than we plan. But my disabled body also declares what the Creator can do with a little bit of ash. And so I give thanks for that.” - Dr. Amy Kenny “I realized that not taking yourself so seriously is a gift, and having a healthy sense of humor about yourself, it really is a skill and it's kind of a nice way to live.” - Anna Lind Thomas “There is something about that deep belly laugh that makes us be like, Okay, I can handle this. You know, I can do this, I can handle this, let's go for it. There's really true power in that, and it's such an important thing.” - Anna Lind Thomas ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

Life shouldn't be taken quite so seriously, and with Anna Lind Thomas in the house, you have to laugh.This episode I talk to Anna about her recent book, I'm Not Ready for This, and we discuss how she came to be a humor writer in the first place. Her story about the fart, that went viral, and the whacky things that normal every day life brings is the forefront of our conversation. "Real life if far more funny than anything you could make up," she was once told. When you listen to Anna and hear about her perspective on life, you will tend to agree.Follow her on Instagram for a special entry to win a signed copy of her book.LINKS from today's episode:Join Beautiful Second Act Facebook GroupJoin Beautiful Second Act MembershipBeautiful Second Act Instagram: beautiful_second_actAnna's Website: annalindthomas.comHer Substack Page: annalindthomas.substack.comAnna's Facebook PageAnna's Instagram

Today is the first day of summer! The season often means putting on a swimming suit and facing the fun. Humor writer and comedian Anna Lind Thomas joins the sisterhood to talk about how she is never ready for summer and swimming suits. With a funny and practical twist Anna covers swimsuit shopping (make it an event), finding a suit that flatters (skirts are cute and functional), and harnessing all of the confidence of our good bodies as we enjoy the summer with our people. Naturally this conversation takes us into deeper topics like how we speak to our bodies, how we honor them, what confidence looks like, and how our mindset about our bodies and aging impacts how we are able to enjoy our reality. There is no turning back the clock, we will never look like we did decades ago, so acceptance is part of the process of loving the bodies we have today. Whether you're needing a little inspiration to embrace your 2022 body, or you want a reminder that God gives us bodies and we get to use them to do his good work in the world, this episode will be a good start to the summer months. Now get outside and enjoy the world God has made! Happy Summer!

We're just passing through our own little nuggets of time on earth. Think about that for a second. This life is SHORT. It's extremely easy to become obsessed with things of zero value and meaning. This obsession can in turn strip us from happy lives and take our time and our money. Just ask Anna who refuses to admit binging on Mariah Carey's new reality show. Don't let the world consume you, be consumed with God and His love!This week we look at 1 John 2:15: Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.Special thanks to our partners HelloFresh. We can’t recommend HelloFresh enough.

"Going Viral" is the new American Dream. Everyone from pre-teens to my co-workers are clamoring to get the latest viral sensation. After having an accidental dalliance with going viral myself I've been fascinated with the phenomenon. So I called on some experts to chat about their experience with me. My friend Anna Lind-Thomas from HaHas for Hooohas is an author and fellow podcaster who has touched the viral heavens numerous times. Her co-host on The Anna and Susannah Show is author Susannah B. Lewis of Whoa Susannah fame. Both have gone viral with their website, memes, and online videos. Anna shared her perspective on how her website went viral when she posted The Fart Story, which you should totally read if you haven't yet.  But she also explains how a video she recently shot also shot through the roof. Is there a rhyme or reason? Who knows. But had a few good laughs trying to figure it out. I can tell you after the whirlwind week I had after Christmas I had a deeper understanding of the appeal of mass appeal. When millions of people watch something you posted, there is a trickle down effect of sorts onto your other platforms. And you think for a moment, this is it. This is when I become a star! That traffic from my YouTube video transferred over to my website, and my social outlets. Everything got a boost in numbers. Everyone around me was saying we would go on Ellen, we would be on the Today show, or that even Steve Harvey would want us on his show to talk about our famous cat and her sneaky moves. None of that happened. In fact what actually happened after my video went viral was kind of a bummer.  There's such an expectation of what a viral video can do for your career or fame. And maybe that does happen for some people. But in the age where people are going viral every day, I believe there are now different levels of going viral. There's David at the dentist viral (one of the originals), Chewbacca Mom viral, the every day viral (like me), meme viral, gif viral, website viral, reddit viral, imgur virla and more. Even my friend Kristian thinks he went viral with a few thousand retweets on Twitter. Bottom line, viral videos are so saturated now it's hard to break out and really become a viral star unless a TV talk show like Ellen picks up your video and features you on their show. I explain more in-depth in this episode how signing with a media licensing company effectively ruined any chance of making money and helping my video grow even more. This was a big lesson learned for me. Now if lightning strikes twice, hopefully I'll be in a better position to make smart decisions. But that was just one part of the puzzle. The timing of my viral video was great for everyone in the Christmas spirit who wanted a laugh. Not great for making TV appearances because every major talk show was on hiatus. So by the time they went back into production, the video was weeks old and no one really cared any more. There is also a huge misconception about how much money viral videos make. I did some research and found that on average, YouTube videos pay .004 a view but no one really knows for sure. I can't even get YouTube to email me back with confirmation about how much they pay on my own video. And as one of my friends lovingly pointed out, I effed up my one chance to get viral fame because it wasn't me in front of the camera. To which I replied, next time I'm recording a special family moment with my daughter I'll make sure I randomly stick my face in front of the camera so everyone can see me. Because that's what it's all about right? Anna and I dissect the desire to go viral and if you reach that pinnacle, can you recreate it?  Good stuff here people! Thanks for listening!

What a week!  It started with my love/hate relationship with the Globes. Then I officially kicked-off my #MIH15by15 weight loss challenge to lose 15 pounds by my 15th wedding anniversary in May. And I got some amazing actor news (details coming soon!). Finally, I got to cap it off by making friends with a funny, down-to-earth mama named Anna Lind Thomas from HaHas for HooHas and The Anna and Susannah Show. Life is good ya'll! Anna is the creative genius behind HaHasforHooHas.com-a funny eCards website aimed at women. Honestly, dudes will probably love it too. It's full of genuine and relatable eCards, stories and content all moms and women will enjoy.  She also recently launched a podcast where she shares her fun stories and interviews guests each week. Check out the recent show she did with yours truly! In this episode we chatted about the wonder of meat buffets, Sister Wives, and funny women we admire.  All glorious and special topics in their own way.  Plus hard-hitting topics like our admiration of Amy Schumer, how much sex we're having, and how much sex our husbands think we're having. Often, they are different numbers. I had so much fun talking to Anna and we have mutually decided that we are going to be friends for life.  Thanks podcasting for bringing us together! You can find the HaHas for HooHas podcast on iTunes, Blog Talk Radio or the HooHas website. And make sure you follow Anna and her HooHa on social media to keep up with the daily fun.
