Podcast listener, Alicia Joy in Southern California, I tend to ask this, I attended the Gospel

Coalition's Women's Conference in June and left with a great desire in mind to become

What would you say are the top resources to aid in this area as I prayerfully study,

And I'm super looking forward to look at the book and the help I think those videos

will provide.

Thank you, Pastor John.

seek Him.
