Say, won't he do it? Yes, he will. Welcome to Susie Larson Live Sunday edition. And if you're new to this Sunday edition, I'm excited to tell you about it.

If you listen to the show during the week, there's a regular format. I typically have a guest. We walk through their book or their message or their ministry. Once in a while, I fly solo. But every Sunday, it's you and me, baby. It's a more informal but intimate connection. So I'm asking you to grab a

cup of cozy, whatever you like, and sit in, lean in, and let's dig in to God's word together,

to themes from scripture, and paths to freedom because God created us for healing, wholeness,

flourishing, and redemption. As they say, hurt people, hurt people, and healed people.

So right now I want to talk with you about slaying your inner critic. And for the next handful of

weeks, we'll be walking through my content of my book, waking up to the goodness of God,

40 days towards healing and wholeness. And that book really is a 40-day journey

of moving you out of the posture of bracing for impact into a posture of expectancy,

of counting on God's goodness. If you listen to my show often enough, you know I care about

health, healing, wholeness, I care about the physiological impacts of our negative emotions and the trauma

and our backstory. I care a lot about that. It's not the only thing we talk about, but it's

definitely something we talk about. Did you know that when you've walked through a series of

crises to the point where you are bracing for impact, you're kind of holding your breath all

the time, waiting for the next

shoe to drop. It's actually terrible for your physiology, not to mention what it does for your soul

and your spirit and your sense of expectancy. So to intentionally move from that posture to one of

expectancy takes a little time. And if you look at just the mere wiring of

rewiring of neural pathways of changing things in your physiology, it usually takes around 40 days,

sometimes a little bit longer, but it's the art of steady application. Each day,

building a case for the goodness of God. Each day building a case for the goodness of God.

Each day building a case for the goodness of God.
