Co-hosts Mike Nawrocki and Sarah Humphrey talk this week with author Hunter Beless about her new book, Amy Carmichael: The Brown-Eyed Girl Who Learned to Pray. At a time when being a single female missionary was extremely costly, Amy Carmichael spent her life sharing Christ's love with hundreds of women and children in Asia. Along the way, she adapted to fit into cultures very different from her own, learned to depend on God in prayer, and became a mother to many children who had been sold, kidnapped, outcast, or abandoned. Her inspiring resolve to follow Christ and her sincere commitment to his word make her a great role model for young children and will enthuse them about the great things they can do for God too. This beautiful hardback book features beautiful illustrations and extra facts in the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos.  Hunter and her husband, Brooks, have four amazing kiddos who love learning and who memorize Scripture way faster than their mama!

“There's no greater source of inspiration than an abiding friendship with Jesus.” –– Davy FlowersAt TGCW21, Sarah Walton, Caroline Cobb, Hunter Beless, Davy Flowers, Ruth Chou Simons, and Jen Wilkin discuss what it looks like to be a creative in this age of technology.The panel discusses questions like, “How do we not seek our own glory on social media? How do we balance home life with ministry work? And, how do we serve both our local church and the global church at the same time?” Simons encourages us to think of our social media platform as the living room of our home, allowing for a more genuine engagement with our followers, as we treat them as if they were sitting on the couch in front of us.The key to success is not growing our number of followers, but instead, connecting with the ones we have and stewarding our creative platform well, while pointing the world to Jesus. Everything we need in order to create beautiful art, music, and content, stems from a genuine relationship with Jesus Christ. We create for an audience of one—for his glory, alone.

If we know one thing about moms it's that we're busy. And if we know anything about this time of year it's that the busy ramps up. So we are kicking off our back to school series we are calling The Busy Mom's Guide. We're starting by talking about how to engage with Scripture in the middle of parenting chaos. As our guest Hunter Beless says, there is no quiet these days for the "quiet time." Hunter is the author of the children's book Read It, See It, Say It, Sing It: Knowing and Loving the Bible. Those approaches work for moms too. We can place Scripture where we'll read it. On the steering wheel of our car, next to the kitchen sink, in our pocket. If we can see it, we can read it. We can also listen to it. Often the best approach to engaging Scripture when we never sit down is to have it playing over us and around us. Hunter understands that this is a unique time in a woman's life and it requires unique approaches. From Scripture memorization to dinner time readings to habit stacking (you'll want to hear this one), we talk about what it means for busy moms to eat from the bread of life. We need to nourish our souls on God's good word and the busier we are, the more we need it. So how are you going to engage with Scripture today?   A Few Things Mentioned: Hunter's podcast The Journeywomen Podcast Hunter's children's book, Read It, See It, Say It, Sing It: Knowing and Loving the Bible "They are not just idle words for you—they are your life. By them you will live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess.” -Deuteronomy 32:47 "Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'”Matthew 4:4 "These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up." Deuteronomy 6:6 "How sweet are your words to my taste,     sweeter than honey to my mouth!" Psalm 119:103 SEEDs Family Worship The Dwell Bible app Scripture Typer app Atomic Habits by James Clearr "The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.     He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,      he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths     for his name's sake.  Even though I walk     through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil,     for you are with me; your rod and your staff,     they comfort me.  You prepare a table before me     in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil;     my cup overflows.  Surely your goodness and love will follow me     all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord     forever." Psalm 23 “Let us consider if we're not spending time with God, why we're not.” –Dallas Willard Things Hunter Said: “If I really want to know that God is who he says he is, I'm going to open up this book and ask him to show me…to show me who he is.” “We need the Gospel.

Amy and Mike talk with author Hunter Beless this week about her new book Read It, See It, Say It, Sing It! In Hunter Beless's delightfully whimsical picture book, Read It, See It, Say It, Sing It!, multiple diverse families grow in their knowledge of and love for the Bible in four simple ways:                      Reading, or hearing God's Word read aloud Seeing, or memorizing Scripture Saying, or talking about the Bible together Singing, or worshiping God and proclaiming the Gospel As the characters read, see, say, and sing the Bible, they learn that God uses His Word to speak to us, mature us, help us fight sin, and expand His kingdom. Young readers will understand that as we study, memorize, repeat, and declare Scripture, Jesus is glorified, and our lives are changed forever! A celebration of the living and active Word of God, Read It, See It, Say It, Sing It! elevates Scripture to the place it belongs in our lives—as the highest and most trustworthy authority. Children will see that by knowing and  loving God's Word, we can draw closer to Jesus, the hero of the Bible! HUNTER BELESS is passionate about helping women know and love God more, especially through His Word. She is the founder of Journeywomen, hosts the Journeywomen podcast, and loves doing ministry in her local church context. Hunter and her husband, Brooks, have three amazing kiddos who memorize Scripture way faster than their mama! When they're not reading, seeing, saying, or singing the Bible, you can find the Beless family camping, riding bikes, or snuggling up with a good book.

“God is over all of the transitions that we face. He has used all of the transitions that we see to bring about His purpose.”I have been wanting to have Hunter Beless on the podcast for years, and she is also a long-time Happy Hour listener so this was all a huge win! Hunter is the founder and host of Journeywomen podcast and the author of a children's book releasing so very soon "Read It, See It, Say It, Sing It: Knowing and Loving the Bible".Hunter talks with us about homeschooling her children through Covid and walking through the unexpected loss of her father after just weeks of learning that he was diagnosed with cancer. Through this season, she wanted her children to see how much she needs God's word which led to her integrating Bible literacy into her family time. She breaks down the whole journey for us of how she has walked through repetition and scripture memorization with her children. It is so beautiful and meaningful to see how much little ones really do retain God's word and Hunter is stewarding that so well. Her children's book comes out next month so be sure to check it out!Connect with JamieFacebook // Twitter // Instagram // YouTubeGET ALL THE LINKS FROM THE SHOW HERE

Most of us dads under-estimate how much scripture our kids are able to memorize. More importantly, we often under value how vital that practice is for their spiritual journey. Join host Jerrad Lopes as he sits down with Hunter Beless to talk about why it's so important to be a family that takes the word of God seriously, and learn practical tips on how to implement that spiritual practice immediately.

This week on The About Her Podcast, I chat with Hunter Beless about gracefully navigating seasons of transition and change. Hunter is the founder and host of Journeywomen podcast, a podcast that seeks to come alongside women and to move them to know and love God more. Hunter is also the author of Read It, See It, Say It, Sing It - a delightful rhyming picture book intended to help children and families grow in their knowledge and love of the Bible.

In addition to hosting Journeywomen Podcast and writing a recent Children's book, Hunter is a homeschooling mama, who loves doing ministry in her local church context. Hunter and her husband, Brooks, have three amazing kiddos who love memorizing Scripture.

In this episode of the podcast, I speak with Hunter Beless, the founder and host of the "Journeywomen" podcast, which has become one of my favorites over the years. I love Hunter's focus because she digs deeply into theological topics and talks with some of the spiritual heavyweights many of us admire. At the same time, she is relatable and a faithful mom raising three littles, serving in her church, teaching her kids and now -- she's written a children's book, which I'm so excited about! Hunter has become a familiar face on the speaking circuit and you can often find her at the Gospel Coalition women's conference or collaborating with the lovely ladies of Risen Motherhood (check out my episode with Laura Wifler here!) Don't miss her beautiful wisdom and enjoy this easy conversation with a fellow, Christian mom who wants to help you know God and love Him more.

Today on the podcast we have speaker, author, mentor, and spiritual support leader for the YouVersion Bible app, Cindy Beall. She is also a woman who has been through incredible seasons of heartbreak after her husband revealed his unfaithfulness to her with multiple women, he was deep into an addiction to pornography, and one of the women he had slept with was pregnant. Cindy shares with us with such beautiful honesty where God met her in her heartbreak, and what the journey looked like when she felt called to stay with her husband as God restored her his's life, her life, and their fractured family. Ten years later, Cindy wrote a book called Healing Your Marriage When I Trust is Broken: Finding Forgiveness and Restoration, and now ten years after its first release, and 20 years after that heartbreaking season of their lives, the book is being re-released with updated insights from its original publication in order to counsel and care for those who are living in similar seasons of heartbreak.  Not everyone's story is like Cindy's, and we discuss that at length, but everyone will experience some type of betrayal and suffering, and I hope and pray that this message from Cindy can infuse hope into your soul that the Lord is near to you. We also talk about the powerful impact of porn and pornography addiction for men and for women, and how the human brain and body can so easily become entangled by it, as well as what it's like to hear from God, the power of the Word, prayer, living in community and how the Lord can be close to the brokenhearted.  Listen, friend, I just want to reiterate something Cindy says in her powerful book and it's this:  “I can't promise you that God will restore to you what has been lost, but please know He will restore you.” Don't lose heart, friends. Keep going. Ask for help. Cry out to the Lord. Take a nap. Make the call. Whatever your next right step is, the Lord can and will meet you in it. Further up and further in; that's where we draw closer to Him. You matter, friend. Your story matters.  Connecting with Cindy:  20th Anniversary of Healing Your Marriage When I Trust is Broken: Finding Forgiveness and Restoration  Facebook Instagram Website Episode Sponsor: His Kids Company Use the code SIMPLY20 for 20% off your purchase!

In this episode, Tyler talks with Hunter Beless about the Christian and social media. Most of us are aware of the "side effects" of our virtual lives, but to what extent? As Christians, we are in just as much danger as anyone else when it comes to social media, and yet, we are called to "look carefully how we walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil." But how do we do this? How do we "redeem the time" that we have, and so often, spend online? Listen in as Hunter helps us to think wisely and biblically about the way we view and interact with social media.

What does it look like to be discipled and to make disciples? What if you’re in a busy season with littles? Does it have to be a weekly coffee date with the Bible open?

She shares how her mentors taught her to imitate Christ, apply the gospel to every circumstance, and depend on the grace of God.      Connect with us:  www.dailygracepodcast.com  www.thedailygraceco.com  https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/  https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/    Questions?

Before that he was in the military, so Hunter knows a thing or two about transition.

When my interview for Episode 94 fell through a few weeks ago, I decided to do a season-closing solo episode talking about what I've learned in the last two years of podcasting. It seemed fitting as I just celebrated my second podcasting anniversary on June 1st and am about to take an extended leave from the show following the birth of our second child in mid-June. In this episode, I share what God's been teaching me over the last two years of podcasting. However, these lessons aren't really about starting a podcast. Whatever your dream, you can apply them to your journey. I've broken the lessons down into simple takeaways so you can think about how you might start or proceed in following the dream God's given you. You'll learn why you don't have to be perfect to move forward, how to consider the costs of your dream before you get started and why fear must not get the best of you in the process. IN CASE YOU'RE NEW AROUND HERE, I'LL SHARE A LITTLE INTRODUCTION AS WELL. For a long time, the only dream I had room for in my heart was marriage. I was obsessed. I tried to dull the ache with social activities, work, achievements, volunteering, media—anything to keep from feeling alone—but all of it left me empty. However, God is faithful, and He was brewing something in me that I could not imagine at the time -- God-shaped dreams were forming in my heart and waiting in the wings while I longed for what I did not yet have. Fast-forward a decade-plus and even now, married and a mommy, I am reminded that putting my life on hold to wait for “what could be” is a great way to miss out on “what's right now.” That's why I've made it my mission to help other women step over what's holding them back from pursuing their God-shaped dreams. Because I believe God created you for a purpose, with gifts, talents, experiences and passions unique to you. And He did it for His glory and His Kingdom. And I don't want you to miss being part of that beautiful mission, like I almost did.

Hunter Beless believes God has called her to seek after those He has awakened to guide them back to their Heavenly Father. She passionately exercises this God-given design through her roles as a wife, mama, podcast host, and writer. Though they stumble often, she and her husband Brooks, strive to display God's covenant-keeping love through their marriage and oneness. They have two little girls, Hadley Grace (3) and Davy Kathryn (1) and currently reside in Fort Campbell, KY where Brooks serves in the US Army. Hunter, Brooks, Hadley, and Davy love journeying through life together for the glory of God. Listening to this episode, you're going to be bathed in scripture, whether you realize it or not. This woman knows her bible, and it inspires and spurs me on to get to reading (and memorizing!) mine with more regularity. Hunter reminds us that God is so powerful that He can fulfill dreams regardless of circumstances. You'll learn about re-orienting your fear of the things of this world to the God of the universe and how that gives us courage to keep taking the next step. She also teaches us about embracing our limitedness with the grace and freedom to do what is within your capacity and let go of the rest! And for all you moms with little ones at home, I asked Hunter after we stopped recording about the resource she's used to help her 3-year-old daughter memorize God's word, and I've got a link to that in the show notes for you (and me!). You'll find the show notes, links to the resources mentioned, and all the ways to connect with Hunter, here: http://www.merrittonsa.com/podcast/92 CONNECT WITH HUNTER & JOURNEYWOMEN PODCAST: Website || Hunter's Insta || Journeywomen Insta   MENTIONED ON THE SHOW: X-Ray Questions by David Powilson Charles Spurgeon quote: "The sovereignty of God is a sweet pillow you can lay your head on at night. It's a beautiful true north. Not only that God is in control over all but also that He is working everything out for your good and for His glory." Hunter's definition of “devoted”: “When I think of the word devotion I think of one who has pledged herself to a higher purpose.

In this Mother's Day episode of the Dad Tired podcast, Jerrad is joined by Hunter Beless, host of the Journey Women Podcast. Join in as the two share about what it looks like for a husband to lead his family well, how to become the spiritual leader of the home, and what wives are truly longing for from their husband.

Welcome to the very first episode! On this episode, Hunter Beless will introduce herself as the host of the podcast while explaining a little more of her heart behind the show. The Journeywomen Podcast exists to equip and encourage Christian women to gracefully navigate the seasons and challenges they face on their journeys to glorify God. A journeywoman is asking things like, “How can I glorify God through opening my home? How can I glorify God by memorizing scripture? How can I glorify God using my gifts, like teaching, writing, or serving? How can I glorify God in my season of waiting, singleness, transition, depression, etc?” In each episode, Hunter will introduce you to Christian leaders who have pointed her to Jesus on her own spiritual journey. Their conversations will offer solidarity and camaraderie, as well as encouragement from mentors who can offer the wisdom of years and experience. If we’re doing this right, Journeywomen will be a place to equip and encourage Christian women to practice disciplines today to develop into the kind of women we want to be in 20-30 years.
