Life is Messy, God is Good, with Cynthia Yanof
Combining reality, with theology, (and a dash of humor!)
Today’s guest, Cynthia Yanof is the friend we all want. She is honest, encouraging, and hilarious. She shoots straight and stays humble. I am so glad she poured all of these things into her new book: Life is Messy, God is Good.
In today’s conversation Cynthia and I talk about parenting (she has college age down to first-grade children!) fostering and adoption (so much respect!) church life (Cynthia knows her stuff!) Mom-friends, and so much more. We talk about some of the lies in our culture and how we can speak truth to ourselves. Cynthia shares encouragement for focusing on what really matters in parenting, and also offers us her “4 Playground Rules” for life. (So good!)
Listen to this one for encouragement and a good, healthy laugh. Because, as Cynthia says, “When did it all become so serious?”
