JEANNIE: ON THE HOLY SPIRIT + PRAYING FOR AND ENCOURAGING OUR KIDS + BEING A BOY MOM
Hey friends! Well, I am pretty excited to share this episode with you because I am basically fan-girling right now. Today, I talk with Jeannie Cunion who is one of my favorite authors. She is an author who is well known for writing stories that make much of the wild love of Jesus because of how her life has been rescued by it. She is also a beloved Bible teacher and sought-after speaker who has been featured on outlets such as the TODAY show, Fox News, The 700 Club, and Focus on the Family. Jeannie, who holds a master’s degree in social work, worked as a counselor and trainer in the adoption field before writing. She is a wife to Mike and a mama to five boys she is crazy about. To know Jeannie is to know her deep love for Danita’s Children’s Home in Haiti.
Today, we talk a little bit about family and parenting and whole lot about what it looks like to access the power of the Holy Spirit to do this hard work that we’re doing. We chat through her book, Don’t Miss Out, that is all about the Holy Spirit and really helps to demystify the Holy Spirit as a Person. I just love Jeannie, as I tell her myself today, and I know you will love her, too. Listen in!
The intro song, The Source, is brought to you by one of the best new worship bands out there, The Evidence. Yes, the frontman is my (talented, brilliant, adorable, Jesus-loving) cousin. No, that's not why I love them.
Jeannie’s book, Don’t Miss Out, has been the perfect morning quiet time companion. Her storytelling helps reveal why Spirit-help is far superior to self-help, equip you to activate the Spirit's power in your daily life, guide you into deeper intimacy with Jesus, show you how the Holy Spirit champions you.
Mom Set Free is the Bible study that was birthed from Don’t Miss Out. Jeannie just finished it and it’s available in the Bible app. Check it out here!
Jeannie’s sister, Patti Callahan, is an author, too…there must have been something in the water growing up! I found out she authored Becoming Mrs. Lewis and immediately added it to my list of books to read.
Jeannie shared that she can’t get enough of Maverick City Music right now, and I’m with her. If you haven’t checked them out yet, you definitely need to.
