WELCOME HEART: Living a Legacy Life
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
With her latest book, Stuff I'd Only Tell God, A Guided Journal of Courageous Honesty, Obsessive Truth-Telling and Beautifully Ruthless Self-Discovery, Jennifer Dukes Lee gives us what we may didn't know we needed: a self-guided tour of ourselves--and it's only as accurate as we are honest.
On this episode of WELCOME HEART: Living a Legacy Life, host Sue Donaldson talks to guest Jennifer Dukes Lee about her legacy journey. Jennifer shares her story about creating legacy Bibles for her daughters and the importance of leaving a lasting impact on loved ones. In addition, the episode delves into the power of journaling and how it can help build a deeper relationship with God, the value of asking and answering questions to form meaningful connections with others, exploring both the good and the bad memories in our life, and cultivating self-compassion through journaling. Join us as we explore these meaningful topics that can help us all live a more purposeful and intentional life.
What you'll learn from tuning in today:
1. The importance of journaling as a way to become more intimate and honest with God, and to see where He has been in your life, ultimately leading to a deeper relationship.
2. Ways to embrace your unique self and be reminded of God's humor.
3. The concept of exploring both the "holes" and "gardens" in your life and how this can balance things out and allow you to see the beauty in both.
4. How to think about your relationship with money and how it influences your life.
5. The value of cultivating self-compassion by reflecting on past experiences and gaining admiration for your younger self.
Some Jen Gems:
1. "We have a generation of people who have grown up without a legacy of faith, so it's up to us to create that legacy now."
2. "Legacy is about making a lasting impact. It's the things that will outlast us when we're gone."
3. "When you lean into discomfort, you find a deeper level of meaning, purpose, and significance in your life."
4. "When we're honest and vulnerable about what we're experiencing, other people find a way to connect and realize they're not alone."
5. "Legacy is not about perfection, it's about authenticity. It's about being true to who God created us to be."
