[Ep 134] You Have to Push Yourself to Grow (Podcast Rebrand)

Have you ever tried to grow stronger by lifting weights? I'm not much of a weight-lifter myself, but I know the drill. Start with a low weight and slowly increase it, making it a bit heavier each time. With each successive uplevel, you build more muscle. Or what about running a marathon? Most of us don't start out running an entire mile. We start with a block. Maybe we even just walk that block. And we slowly build the endurance we need to go longer, to go faster. The same thing happens with us personally. As we try to eat healthier or we try to grow in our cooking skills, the best way to grow is bit by bit. But it does take pushing yourself. Doing something uncomfortable. Maybe even a little scary. And that's what this episode is all about: how God has invited me to push myself a little bit to grow and reach more people. This has been happening in a lot of different ways, but we're going to focus on just one today: changing the name of the podcast. Kari   RELATED EPISODES: ·       Episode 44: Why is Change So Hard?
