I specifically reached out to my podcast guest today and said, please come on my podcast.

I have been watching you and have been so inspired by you.

I would love to hear more about your story and just get a chance to catch up.

And we have been kind of online friends for over five years and seeing what she's doing in her life is so inspiring. So today I'm

going to talk with Laura Jean Bell about health, about faith, about speaking life, about her story,

and about her new book. And honestly, I feel like I was just sitting on a back porch talking with a really good friend for a long time.

She's very honest, very real.

And I think you're going to love what she has to say.

You're listening to Work and Play with Nancy Ray, episode 256.

Much of our daily lives can be divided into two categories, work and play.

Simply put, that's where our life and our legacy take place.

This is a podcast all about learning to work and play well,

which leads to a healthy soul and a fulfilling life.

Listen in.

As a busy mom, it can be so difficult to spend time reading the Word of God like I really want to.

When I can't read, I listen. I simply spend much more time in the word with the Dwell app. And the reason I chose this app over any other is how wonderful it is to listen to. You can select your own voice preference, your translation preference, and background music to make it specific to you. And lately, I've just really been enjoying Ryan with the message

translation and the guitar background. I'm currently listening to the New Testament in 90 days

through the end of the year with the chronological plan. And I do it every morning while I sip

my coffee on the back porch, and it has been so life-giving. You can go to dwellbibble.com slash work-and-play to get 25% off.
