Do you ever wonder, “is this as good as it gets?” Maybe on the outside, life seems good (marriage, kids, etc.), but you still hunger for abundant living–a life filled with purpose and meaning. How do we discover abundant living when we know Christ is our true sense of satisfaction and our source of unconditional love, but we don’t feel fulfilled and still feel an ache in our hearts for more? 

In today’s episode, you’ll hear from Wendy Pope, a speaker with Proverbs 31 Ministries and author of several books, including Yes, No, and Maybe, which helps Christian women rediscover the path to deep satisfaction in God and in life. Wendy has some powerful insights on seeking God, saying no to our own self-sufficiency, and maybe to some decision-making aspects of controlling our lives to find that ultimate satisfaction in Him.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • [7:03] Wendy’s journey of emptiness as she asked, “Is this as good as it gets?”
  • [14:35] Finding abundant living as we submit ourselves to God 
  • [23:49] How chasing after God brings the deep satisfaction we seek
  • [30:26] Cultivating trust with God as we say “yes” to obedience
  • [34:08] Laying down self-sufficiency to discover abundant living
  • [43:05] Partnering with God for freedom in decision making
