Episode 66 - Merry Christmas! Stephanie has a multi-faceted gift for you this year.

First, this is a double-length episode, very near and dear to her heart, that she worked at with meticulous care, to make it as much of a gift and labor of love for you, as possible. Today, she invites you to ponder John the Baptist's question to Jesus: Are You the One? What a timely question this Christmas, as we celebrate the Incarnation of our One. Stephanie invites you deep into the meaning of the various answers that we all give to this question--on many different levels. Enjoy! 

Then, we announce the winners of the two copies of Afraid of the Light, by Cynthia Ruchti (see episodes 64 and 65 for details).

Then, we also announce a NEW YEAR GIVEAWAY! Listen for the details and to participate to win copies of Margaret Feinberg's latest book, More Power to You, which will be the perfect way to start the new year.

Celebrating all fathers and men in our lives! Go to gospelspice.com/father to sign up for a gorgeous, Christ-centered, free 4-day email devotional written by the men of Gospel Spice: Donald E, Ohi O,  and Jonah R. Enjoy!

We know how deeply a man’s faith can shape a home, a community, and a legacy. As women of the Gospel Spice family, we want to honor the men who walk in faith—whether they are husbands, fathers, brothers, or friends—by offering a devotional that speaks directly to their journey with Christ.

This four day devotional was created as a heartfelt encouragement from the men of the Gospel Spice family, gifted to uplift other men who are faithfully walking with God. We believe that their quiet strength, their courageous faith, and their pursuit of God’s heart are worth celebrating—and worth strengthening.

We invite you to send this devotional to the men in your life as a simple but meaningful way to say: "Your faith matters. It impacts us more than you know."

BONUS: While this devotional is designed with men in mind, its wisdom and truth are for everyone. 

From our Gospel Spice family to yours, may this devotional be a reminder that faith is powerful, inspiring, and absolutely worth building your life around.
