Summary

I'm so happy to talk to my new friend, Alexa PenaVega, on the podcast about moving her family to Hawaii, her marriage with husband, Carlos PenaVega, their new book What If Love Is the Point? (that releases TOMORROW!), hearing God, the power of rest, going on tour, the list goes on! Ya'll! Alexa is so open and honest. This conversation is one of my favorites. (And FYI we jump into some pretty deep conversation about some topics, like sex, marriage, and disordered eating. These topics may be tender to you, so I wanted you to know before you listened so you could care for yourself well. And, for our #miniBFFs, this show may be a bit much for their little ears.) . . . .

0:00.0	Hi friends, welcome to another episode of That Sounds Fun. I'm your host Annie Updowns. I'm so happy to be here with you today. Happy Monday. We have got a great show in store.
0:24.4	Before we dive into today's conversation, I want to share about one of our amazing partners, Cap, y'all know how much I love Cap.
0:31.5	It's summer break and we are excited to partner with Christian Appalachian Project to help ensure that children in Appalachia have the food they need.
0:39.1	Y'all, I can't imagine. Okay, listen to this. One in five kids in Appalachia experiences food insecurity, which means thousands of children in Appalachia go without nutritious meals regularly.
0:50.2	Living in constant hunger hurts their ability to grow. It diminishes their capacity to learn and leaves them afraid and ashamed.
0:57.9	This suffering has lifelong effects on far too many boys and girls, but we have the chance to help.
1:03.9	During the school year, Cap's grateful bread food pantry provides weekend food backpacks to children who have been identified as food and secure.
1:12.6	Do you all remember when our team got to visit Cap back in December?
1:16.0	We had the privilege of visiting the grateful bread food pantry. I love that place.
1:21.2	We got the pack, some of the backpacks. It was so special to get to support the incredible care that Cap pours into the communities they serve.
1:28.7	We have the opportunity to be part of that work in the coming school year.
1:32.2	Join our team in providing 100 children in Appalachia with food backpacks for this next school year.
1:38.1	Your donation can build hope, transform lives and share the love of Jesus with children in Appalachia each week through the school year.
1:46.6	So you can make a difference in the life of a child who may not know where their next meal will come from.
1:52.6	If you visit Christianapp.org slash Annie F. Downs T.S.F.
1:57.6	You get in on this awesome opportunity and here's my promise to you guys.
2:01.1	If you jump in with us with Cap at Christianapp.org slash Annie F. Downs T.S.F.
2:08.5	I will match you dollar for dollar through the end of July.
2:11.3	So every dollar that you donate to helping kids be fed with these backpacks, I will match till the end of July.
2:19.3	So that would be awesome. So let's do it together.
2:21.9	Yep. Again, that's Christianapp.org slash Annie F. Downs T.S.F.
2:27.6	And since that link is a bit of a mouthful, remember that the links to all of our sponsors and the transcripts for each show as soon as they're available are included in the show notes.
