Welcome to Joyfilled. I'm your host, Jenna, and this is the Couches Chat coffee cup and hand podcast for Christian moms who want to thrive in the hard and holy work of motherhood.

of a series called Blooming and Becoming, where we are talking, we're answering the question,

what does a vibrant life look like? When we look at scriptures like John 1010, which says,

I have come so that you may have life and life to the full.

Other translations say, I've come so you might have life and have it abundantly.

That life and life abundant that Jesus offers us, that vibrant life at the beginning of this year,
