This is not a gig for me.

This is not a vocation to me.

I believe this more than I've ever believed it in my whole life.

And I see it, but you can't tell me we don't have a good God who orders our steps and

whose will for us is to shepherd us toward hope and toward a future because he's done it in my life time after time.

And I wasn't a Joshua when I wasn't faithful.

And I wasn't hidden with him.

Instead, I was outposing on platforms because I was insecure.

And he still has given me promised land.

That's where I have an inner Caleb.

It's because of what he's redeemed me from. Access More.

Hey, hey, back portraitors.

My name is Allison Allen. I'm the 5'12 spiritual wingwoman to Lisa Harper

for Lisa Harper's Back For theology. She hates it when I do that. And we are so glad that you are with us.

Before we jump in to the book that we're going to be talking about today, We just want to remind you that we love to connect with you.

We love to hear from you.

We've got an Instagram handle, so check out Backport's Theology Podcast there.

Let us know your prayer request.

We really do pray for those, and we just want you to know that you're always welcome at the table here on the porch.

It's Backport Theology podcast.

But I just got highly amused and I have to teach you.

What?
