Hey friends. You're listening to the Go and Tell Girls podcast, and I'm your host, Jess Conlin.

In most of our episodes, we'll have a guest, a woman who is

running on mission right where she's at. We pray this podcast leaves you encouraged and spurred

on to go and tell the good news. Hello, friends. I am thrilled to bring you today's episode with Crystal Hurst.

Crystal is an author. She's a Bible teacher. She is a mom. She's a leader. And in general,

you're going to listen to this podcast episode and take a deep breath in. You're going to hear the

spirit of God teaching and encouraging through her, but I just know you're also going to find it as a

soft place to land because she's honest and she's genuine and she's gentle and she is a woman

on mission whose life has been disrupted just like yours has in the last few months.

So be encouraged by Crystal today.

Her new book, The 28 Day Prayer Journey, comes out on August 11th.

You better believe I have preordered that book.

I cannot wait for it.

So do the same.

And I pray that you are blessed and encouraged by this episode with Crystal.

Hey friend, Crystal Hurst, we are so blessed to have you today. Thank you for being here.

Well, I'm glad to be with you, girl. Thank you for having me. Now, I have to tell you this while I was prepping here. Well, I'm glad to be with you,

girl. Thank you for having me. Now, I have to tell you this while I was prepping for this

interview. I don't, I think my husband asked me six times if I was excited to talk to you.

I think you know he's like a huge crystal fan. But I don't know if you remember this the first

time we met you in person.

I do.
