Hey everybody welcome to the mere Christians podcast I'm Jordan

Rander how does the gospel influence the work of mere Christians?

Those of us who aren't pastors or religious professionals,

but who work as cabinet makers and actuaries and school bus drivers.

That's the question we explore every week,

and today I'm posing it to Anita Corsini.

She's the co-founder of Red Barn Homes with her husband Ken, who together

have bought and sold over 800 homes in Metro Atlanta.

But Anita is perhaps best known for her role as co-host of Flip or Flop

Atlanta, which you may have watched on HG TV. Anita and I have been friends, let's call it Instagram friends from a distance for a long time,

but we finally got a chance to sit down together and talk about how her son's near-death experience led to more freedom in her work.

We talked about why Anita is intentional about working slower than she can and what practically it might look like to build houses without the

curse as we see in Isaiah 65's prophetic vision of the new earth.

Guys, you're gonna love this conversation with my friend,

Anita, of course.

Anita, man, this is long overdue. Welcome to the podcast. Thank you, thank you so much for having me and I agree with you very long overdue. So I was like looking back through Instagram

DMs. You and I were trading DMs in like 2019. I'm trying to remember

you must have called to create like way back. Yes, it was yeah way

that I probably am overdue to read it again. I was reading, I think

Ken, actually my husband, somebody gave him the book or he had heard of it somewhere.

And then, of course, then I get nosy

and then I get into it.
