In this conversation, Larissa and I share practical habits, personal stories, Scripture, and simple prayers to help you build an intentional rhythm of noticing God’s faithfulness in your everyday life. Whether life feels messy, busy, or uncertain, you’ll find encouragement to slow down, pay attention, and see God’s hand at work.
