Today we’re talking about the spiritual discipline of spending time with Jesus.

Is there any more transformational practice than spending time with Jesus? When we talk with Him and listen to Him and love Him and let Him love us back, it changes everything. We are no longer who we were after we’ve spent time with Christ.

In this episode, AJ and Jen share:

  • Ideas to freshen up your quiet time
  • Creative ways to find time to spend with Jesus when your kids are little or homeschooling
  • And the remembrance that all it takes is one step at a time in the direction of Jesus to shape a life.
