Hi, I'm Susie Larson.

Thanks for listening to this podcast from Susie Larson Live.

Welcome to Sisi Larson Live. I'm always honored to spend this time with you.

In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk, that deepen your understanding of God's word and that heightens your awareness of his

very real presence in your life. So here's a question for you. What do you do when worry and

disappointment and fear come sneaking in? And how are you managing to process the news, the social

media, and the amped up, you know, tempers that we're seeing today? Well, my guest today says

this. We're meant guest today says this,

we're meant for more than this. We are meant to experience a life of wonder, a delight that

comes straight from Jesus and shines in and through us, regardless of circumstances,

regardless of the news around us, and regardless of our very real personal trials. That's the joy

that Jesus offers. And it's what the

angel is saying about. So no matter what time of year it is, it's always time for joy. Shanti

Feldhan joins me today to talk about her brand new devotional, find joy, a devotional journey

to unshakable wonder in an uncertain world. We're going to get her on in just a moment,

but I got a big,

huge announcement for you. Today we are launching the great giveaway, which will take place on

my birthday, December 18th. We've done this off and on over the last 15 years, and it's always

the most amazing thing. What we're asking you is to engage in some random acts of kindness

between now and December

18th. And what's sort of fun is, if you go on our website, myfaithradio.com, right on the

homepage, you can say, hey, I am in and we'll send you a really pretty little Christmas card
