Summary

David Platt is here today, and I’m SO excited about this conversation. He recently got back from Brazil and shared some incredible stories from his time there, and we talk about the role we play in the Gospel reaching every nation, including unreached people groups. We were never meant to watch the harvest from the sidelines. We were created to experience life by leading others to life. The harvest isn’t just a mission—it’s an invitation. If you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 116 (the guidebook is available for you at anniefdowns.com/seasons). Find the show notes here . . . . . If you enjoyed this episode, I think you’d also love our last episode with David Platt, episode 857, where we talked about singleness and the Church. In fact, if you’re single today or you have a friend who is, we’d love to invite you to come be a part of Single Purpose League. It’s a community of women who are finding their single purpose and their purpose while single. The price goes up to $9/month starting November 1st, but if you join this week, you’ll lock in our OG price of $7/month (or it’s 10% off if you pay for a full year). This community is so special and we’d love to have you! We've also just announced a brand new level of Single Purpose League that’s specifically for single, Christian women in ministry. It’s called the SPL Leadership Mastermind and we’re so pumped about this! It includes a monthly zoom call with me and Katy and our first one is next week.

0:13.1	Hi!
0:13.6	Hi, friends, welcome to another episode of That Sounds Fun, the Seasons.
0:17.3	I'm your host, Annie F Downs.
0:18.6	I'm so happy to be with you today.
0:20.7	I'm really excited about
0:21.8	this conversation as we think about the importance of harvesting in the fall. We also get to
0:27.1	talk about the harvest we see spiritually, how we see God moving around the world. I have been
0:31.5	saving this episode, this conversation since January. I've been dying to have, but man,
0:36.9	today is the right day.
0:38.7	We get to ask, how can I be part of the harvest? This is an important conversation.
0:44.3	But before we dive in, I want to tell you about one of our incredible partners. This show is brought
0:47.9	to you by BetterHelp. As seasons change and days grow darker sooner, it can be tough out there.
0:53.1	This November, BetterHelp is encouraging everyone
0:55.1	to reach out and check on each other. These long, dark days, they are hard. Just as it can take a little
1:00.7	bravery to send that message or grab coffee with someone you haven't seen in a while,
1:04.5	reaching out for therapy can feel difficult to, but it is worth it. And it almost always leaves
1:08.9	people wondering, why didn't I do this sooner?

1:15.7	have to leave home to make your appointment. You can join a session with a therapist at the
1:19.7	click of a button helping you fit therapy into your busy life. Plus, you can switch therapists
