Thriving, with Cheryl Scruggs

This is a special episode to me! The woman who actually, without even knowing it, inspired me to start this podcast, is a guest on today’s show! Cheryl Scruggs has a new book out called, ’Thriving Beyond Belief’ and we’re talking about this whole concept of thriving…what it is and what it isn’t, as well as some of her own personal stories that included trauma and how she found herself thriving, even in the middle of that!    We also talk about the relentless hurry that our culture not only lives in, but really celebrates, and she shares a few practical ways that we can fight against this idea that being busy means we’re flourishing. Cheryl is also honest and kind and has been so willing to let, even the places I’m sure she’d rather not be mentioned again, be used for the glory of God! It's inspiring to hear part of her story and see how God's using it for His kingdom.   Join me as we spend this time together!

Hello and welcome to The Spacious Place!! My name is Kari Levang—-I’m a simple girl (if you can still call yourself a girl when you’re 50 something:), with a complicated past and a great big God! This space was designed to create room for us to talk about the things of life—our joys, our questions, our fears and so much more! But most of all, my desire is that we will leave our time together with an enlarged capacity for hope to grow! That our moments together will cultivate our hearts in such a way that we can find ourselves flourishing in this thing called life. Receiving God’s absolute delight in us——letting it take root in our deepest places and allowing it to spill out of our lives to the people around us.
