These are unusual and challenging days for many of us. I understood “sheltering-in-place.” I understood what that meant. But “social-distancing” is much more of a challenge. For many of us, we’re just not sure of the rule, and they seem to vary from place-to-place, sometimes even from person-to-person. It’s against that backdrop that we find such encouragement in God’s invitation to “draw near.” God has no social-distancing rule.

Recently I was privileged to speak at a Zoom Women’s Conference – a new experience for me. The theme was Audacious and was sponsored by CrossRiver – the publisher of my next book, An Unnatural Beauty: Rediscovering the Beauty of Holiness (and, yes, that’s a plug ðŸ˜Š ). I always love opportunities to share with women about God, though I like it much better when the women are in person rather than on a computer. Either way, my prayer is that God will help us to understand this amazing privilege of drawing near to a holy God.  I’ve attached the link below if you are interesting in viewing Pursuing an Audacious Relationship
