Episode 38- My Beautiful Girlfriend, McKenzie Autry!

Not much of an introduction needed for this episode! For episode 38 of the Just God Pod I had on my beautiful, intelligent, hard-working, determined, fearless girlfriend, McKenzie Autry! There probably aren’t enough words to describe her and I am not sure why the Lord sent me an angel from above but I thank Him everyday for it! What most people don’t know about me is that it was McKenzie that really sparked my walk with the Lord. I will never forget first meeting her, how serious and intentional she was with her own walk. I literally said to myself, “If I ever want to date her I am going to have to clean up my act and start taking God seriously.” It wasn’t so much about what she would say, it was the way she lived. Her actions have always spoken much louder than her words. Seeing her heart, the way she treats others, the way she diligently works in PA school, the way she loves the Lord. I am trying to tell y’all, I outkicked my coverage. On this episode we shared a little bit of what our relationship looks like, from where we first started to where we are now. McKenzie shared her own story about growing up being a Pastor’s kid (PK), mentoring her two younger sisters, where she seeks her validation from in the crazy social media age we live in, and also her thoughts on the book (I sort of forced her to read), The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry. It was an incredible conversation with an incredible individual. McKenzie’s verse of the week was her life verse, something her parents always spoke over her life since she was a kid. It is 2 Timothy 1:7 which says “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” She opened up about having really bad anxiety attacks as a kid and how this Scripture would help her through difficult times as well as why it is important today to memorize Scripture for situations like these!I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did with someone I love with every bone in my body!God bless!
