Hey friends and welcome to the happy hour Jamie Ivey podcast.

I'm your host Jamie and I'm so glad you're here.

Each week on this show, I invite a girlfriend to join me and we chat about the big

things in life, the little things in life and everything in between.

Friends, are you feeling stuck in the rut of routine?

Artists and author Ruth Jo Simon's knows there is more for you even in the mundane moments.

Her new book Beholding and Becoming is a masterpiece of incredible artwork and encouraging

teachings to direct your gaze to God's splendor and your hearts to his worship.

Turn even the most ordinary moments into holy spaces of wonder.

Order, Beholding and Becoming wherever books are sold.

Ruth was recently our happy hour live.

Yes, so if you were here, you loved her.

I hope you'll order a copy of her book and if you want to hear Ruth on the happy hour,

go back and listen to episode number 194.

Guys, welcome to another happy hour.

If you are new here, I want to say welcome.

If this is your 260th episode, I want to say good and as gracious, I'm so glad you're here

every single week.

You guys, we made it to the end of August.

School started for us last week.

I flew to LA last week to film some TV episodes of the show Better Together and I cannot wait

to tell you about it later.
