Episode 68: Lindsey Carlson
I am honored to have Lindsey Carlson back on the podcast for episode 68! Lindsey was a guest on the podcast in fall of 2020 for episode 22. It was so much fun catching up with her and hearing about her newest book, “A Better Encouragement: Trading Self-Help for True Hope,” which released in June of 2022.
Lindsey and I talk about her family’s recent move back to Texas and her experiences processing this season of change. She shares her journey writing and publishing “A Better Encouragement: Trading Self-Help for True Hope” in the midst of the pandemic and what prompted her to write the book in the first place. Through her work in women’s ministry and her own personal experiences, Lindsey recognized that there is a gap between our desire for encouragement and our understanding of how to offer Biblical encouragement.
If you are feeling discouraged and like you don’t have the strength to “make it happen” on your own, listen as Lindsey points us back to the truth of God and His promises. I love Lindsey’s thoughts on how to practically encourage one another in life. Get ready to be inspired, and learn how to offer a better encouragement to those around you!
