Penthouse to Pentecost

Penthouse to Pentecost

By Ashlie Kavanagh

My testimony in 3 words: Penthouse to Pentecost. The Lord transforms, reforms, refurbishes, and repurposes.
The beginning of sanctification started with a slow but radical transformation and pursuing of my heart. He loves so deeply and is so patient and kind that He does leave the 99 for the 1. I am the 1, but so are you, sis!

Here, you can expect encouragement to continue to run this race of life with endurance - whether by hearing someone's beautiful testimony or feasting on just a minute of mana.

In this busy season of motherhood, we need Him now more than ever!

E23: Lamenting Old Seasons

E23: Lamenting Old Seasons

Starting Season 3 with a few puns.

As the literal seasons change in our year, new seasons occur in my life, and a brand new season of the podcast. The season Trifecta.

I know I'm not alone, I know many of us are experiencing our own versions of change. Maybe some positive changes, maybe some not so exciting. We all have permission to run to the Father with all of our stuff. He longs to be gracious to us.
