Behind the Scenes: BLT!

Did you catch it??? Today was our very first...(insert drumroll here...)

BEKAH...

Lynne...

Thursday!!

You know what? We had a blast!!! It was such fun. (Even the part where Lynne coerced me into talking about leg shaving. Seriously!?!?!?!?) As soon as she brought that up, the only thing I could think of was "Ohhhhhh my FATHER is listening to this!!!"

Here's how we prep for a BLT show:

Iced tea, baby!! We are huge fans of iced tea. (PS - sorry that I look like a drowned rat. If you heard the show, you heard that I cut some corners this morning and CLEARLY hair was one of them. Good grief.)

In case you missed it...here is the verse Lynne shared (in response to Phats' question about what verse she would live by if she could only pick one verse) - Ephesians 2:10: For we are God's masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared beforehand to be our way life. A beautiful challenge to live by, I'd say!

Another great life-verse suggested by a listener - Micah 6:8: He has shown you, oh man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

Here are the verses and quotes I shared, in case you were scribbling and missed part of it:

Exodus 14:13-14 - Do not fear! Stand firm and see the salvation of the Lord that He will provide for you today; for the Egyptians that you see today you will never, ever see again. The Lord will fight for you, and you can be still.

God is always calling us to open-ended obedience. - Steven Furtick

We are nearer to the heart of God when we break. God breaks us for better things...God calls us to shed the vow of protecting our hearts. - Mary DeMuth

Spiritual blessings must be balanced with burdens and battles lest we become pampered children instead of mature sons and daughters. - Warren Wiersbe

As for the rest of the show...there was much to learn, including a discussion on bad 80's hair, shaving legs (or not), my run-in with hotel security, Lynne's lost song, lessons God taught Lynne when she saw Michelangelo's David in person, and what I would do over in  life if I could have one do-over....plus a chance to hear from all of you on what to do with that pesky "who is next when a new checkout lane opens" rule that NO ONE follows correctly. You were such fun to talk with!

We'll be back every Thursday with a great new lineup...will you hang out with us?

I'll be here...

...and she'll be there...

...and we sure hope you'll join us!
