FIRST THINGS FIRST: Alana Hayes

Being a mom is really rewarding, really exciting, but also really hard. With Mother's Day coming up, we decided to an air an episode we recorded back in March with our friend Alana Hayes. We talk about dancing, pick up lines, marriage, morning sickness, growing up in church, farming and health inspectors. We also talk about mission, about calling, about the leadership of the Holy Spirit, about grief and loss and about living out Christ-life. You will be inspired and encouraged to hear Alana's story.

Alana's started a company, Against the Grain, to raise money for an orphanage in Nepal. Check our their stuff! You can also go to that website for tickets to A Night for Nepal.

The book, When Helping Hurts, was really impactful to Alana and she mentions it on the podcast.
