Summary
What a year 2017 has been – God is so good! Whether you've been with us for awhile or just recently started listening, we're grateful to have spent the year learning to deeply study scripture together! It takes practice to grow in biblical literacy, but our prayer is that we would all find our truest delight in knowing God through his word. In this episode, Emily and Laura wrap up the year by looking back at our 2017 theme, lessons learned, and favorite shows. We also share our 2018 theme! Let's finish this year well mamas, and head into the next year with our feet firmly planted in the gospel as we bring grace into our homes and our children's lives!

| 0:41.3 | Emily here with me. Hello. And we're excited because this is our last show of 2017. Yes, it's been |
| 0:49.5 | just a whirlwind year. I mean, we think about like planning for 2017 last year and writing down some |
| 0:58.9 | of our very little goals that we just thought would be amazing. I mean, it's just incredible for |
| 1:04.4 | Lauren to look back and see what the Lord has done to just spread his word and his gospel and his |
