Summary

Fall is so packed full and it can be hard to prioritize our bodies. And what does it even mean to be a good steward of our bodies without obsessing over them? Jordan Lee Dooley is back to help us with that today! She’s in a totally new season of life — mom of three under three. She opens up about how so many of us wrestle with this idea that our bodies are failing us and this new understanding of what it really means to steward our bodies — not just like them or fix them, but truly honor them as part of the calling God’s given us. Her new book, Be Good to Your Body, dives deep into that idea. I can’t wait for you to hear this conversation. If you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 114.
