In today’s episode I’m talking with Liz Curtis Higgs, author of more than 30 books–with over 4 million copies in print–including her best-selling Bad Girls of the Bible series, The Women of Christmas, and writing historical fiction novels and children’s books as well.

Liz is a national speaker whose messages are biblical, encouraging, down-to-earth, and profoundly funny, and she is passionate about helping sisters and seekers embrace the truth of God’s amazing, unchanging grace.

Liz resides with her husband Bill in Louisville, Kentucky. She is blessed to live near her two adult and even learns about God from her twin tabby, Samson and Boaz.

In this episode Liz shares:

  • About her personal mud story
  • Encouragement for you as you face your own mud
  • Interesting insights about Ruth
  • The miracle and redemption in Bathsheba’s life
  • Insights and encouragement from The Women of Christmas–Elizabeth, Mary, Anna

And after you listen, I’d be SO grateful if you’d take the time to SUBSCRIBE to this podcast over in iTunes on your computer, or on the purple podcast app on your Apple device.

SCRIPTURE:

Let me hear joy and gladness;
    let the bones that you have broken rejoice.
Hide your face from my sins,
    and blot out all my iniquities.
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
    and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from your presence,
    and take not your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation,
    and uphold me with a willing spirit.
Psalm 51:8-12 (ESV)
