Today we’re kicking off a brand new series in which we’re seeking to answer the question: What is a Journeywoman? In our first episode, we’re going back to a conversation I shared with Nancy Wolgemuth on living in light of redemption, because a journeywoman is redeemed. Our hope and prayer is that this episode encourages you to remember the great story of redemption and to walk with people to the cross—to Jesus. That is what being a Journeywoman is all about. 

In this week’s episode, we’re throwing it back to a conversation we shared years ago with Christine Gordon about how a Journeywoman seeks to know and love God more. Christine Gordon (aka Chris) is the co-founder of At His Feet Bible Studies and a visiting instructor at Covenant Theological Seminary, where she also attended and earned her Master of Arts in Theological Studies. We hope you’ll walk away from this conversation encouraged to know and love God more through his Word and that you’ll press into your local body of believers to encourage and be encouraged by your brothers and sisters who are also striving to that end. 

In this week’s episode, we’re throwing it back to a conversation Hunter had with her friend and former mentor, Matt Lantz, on the topic of identity and how we live out our God-given design. God has created each of us uniquely, with specific wirings and gifts so that we might use those strengths for the glory of God. God has also called each of us—to specific places, roles, and tasks—so that we might make much of him wherever he has placed us. We pray this conversation encourages you to prayerfully consider what it looks like to live in light of who you are in Christ.

Today we’re continuing our series “What is a Journeywoman” by diving into the topic of sanctification, because a Journeywoman is being sanctified. We’re going back to a conversation we had with Gavin Ortlund on the topic. We talked about how the Lord uses the seasons and challenges of life to encourage us to turn to the Word, to pray, and to be actively involved in our local churches—all things that the Lord uses to bring about holiness in us. We pray this episode encourages you as you continue to work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, knowing that it is God who works in you for his good pleasure (Phil. 2:12-13).

Today, we’re revisiting a conversation with Vanessa Hawkins on living in light of eternity because a Journeywoman’s hope resides in heaven. We talked about what a difference it makes as we navigate the seasons and hardships of life when we approach them with eternity in view. This is our last episode in the “What is a Journeywoman?” series. It’s been so wonderful revisiting these timeless conversations on what it means to be a woman of God. We pray that this episode encourages you—in the midst of whatever it is you are walking through today—to fix your gaze on eternity. That is what being a Journeywoman is all about.
