Summary

It's our first episode of 2019, and we're talking about the little voice in your head. The one that pipes up when you feel guilt over letting your kids eat too many cookies or sets off an alarm bell when you watch something questionable. All of us have one, but it's not the Holy Spirit. What is it exactly? In this episode, Emily and Laura start the conversation on personal conscience. God gave each of us a conscience to help discern what's right and wrong in the everyday "gray" areas of life. While it can be dulled by sin, God recalibrates our consciences through the study of his word and fellowship with believers, so we can do all things in faith with love.

Motherhood is hard. One second, we think we're doing a good enough job,

and the next we feel like the worst mom on the planet, which is why we need the

refreshing truth of the gospel to be repeated over and over, giving us hope in the

everyday moments. So mama, whether you're sipping cold coffee or doing a

Yes, it's very exciting. I am Emily and I'm here with my sister in law Laura.

0:55.2

Hello everyone. We are really excited. We're going to be continuing our theme of unity in the

0:59.9

gospel that we've been doing. We'll be kicking off a new theme in September, but we have a great

1:06.2

spring lineup. It is not spring yet. Let's be honest, it's freezing cold.

to talk about. Like just things that Emily and I have had interest in and that we want to share

1:31.6

and kind of go back to our roots to Aaron, our conversation. So we also have an exciting

1:36.4

announcement to start the year. We are officially a non-pronthit, which is something we have been

1:41.6

working towards since I think last summer. Yeah. Definitely a huge behind the scenes. Huge
