Summary

The world puts a lot of pressure on us. Most of us spend all our days striving to be “perfect” or to be “enough.” But this never-ending toil is draining, and it never leaves us where we think we should be. In her new book The Bright Life, author and Bible teacher Jen Wise looks at how we can overcome this pressure and experience renewed, energetic, and full lives. Jen sits down with Davey to talk about the book and how we can live from a refreshed place and spread that refreshment to the people around us. Learn more about your ad choices.
