Eps #287: Finding Selah, the Simple Practice of Peace

by kathilipp | Jan 16, 2018 | God, Identity, Podcast | 25 comments

In this episode Kathi chats with Kristen Kill, author of Finding Selah, The Simple Practice of Peace When you Need it Most. After the birth of her oldest daughter, before post-partum depression was widely diagnosed, Kristen remembers the fog that surrounded her. Rather than cry out to God, she retreated, tiptoeing around God, afraid to speak.

Kristen shares the need for us to create a space of rest, a space of quiet in our lives so we can re-sync with Jesus throughout our day.

Join us for this thoughtful episode and be encouraged!
