Here's Holly Aleph.

Accessing the grace of God is not something that I do as a work.

It is something that God has already created, that He's provided, that He has ready for me.

So it's more about me being in a position where I recognize my need, and I run to him for what I need.

This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast with Nancy DeMoss-Swalkamoo, author of Adorned, for July 12, 2019.

The I am so, so thankful for the women that God has put in my life over the years.

Older women, younger women, and women who are my peers, spiritual mothers, spiritual

daughters, and spiritual sisters.

And that's why I wrote the book, Adorned, Living Out the Beauty of the Gospel Together.

It's based on Titus II. Paul's instructions to older women and younger women, they're supposed to have

their lives intertwined and to be intentional about relationships where

they're helping each other live out what the gospel looks like.

And one of the spiritual sisters that God has given me over the years has been my longtime

friend, Holly Ellif.

She's a pastor's wife in Little Rock, Arkansas, where we're recording today.

We've been through a lot of life together. Holly, thank you for joining us in the studio of our

sister ministry, family life today to talk about these kinds of relationships, spiritual

sisterhood, spiritual motherhood, spiritual daughters, and how that's an indispensable part of our

growth in Christ and our ministry to others. So welcome back to revive our hearts.

Thanks, Nancy. I'm really glad to be here, really grateful to be here today, number one, just

to stare at Nancy across the table and get to see her in person instead of on the phone or on a

text. We wish we could do this.
