This week’s conversation is with Anna Comer! Anna is a wife & creative living in Wilmington, NC. She shares about how the Lord worked in her life in her late teens to early 20s as she was part of YWAM, met her husband, moved to another state, and wrestled with different questions that led her to a deeper love of Jesus through the Word and apologetics. That season led her to hosting and leading Bible studies and she shares what that has looked like and how she has seen the Spirit move. We also have an honest conversation about materialism and about how Jesus has influenced Anna’s heart for cultivating a sustainable life, home, and style. We ended our sweet conversation chatting about knitting, tips for anyone wanting to learn to knit, what that has looked like for Anna & what the Lord has taught her in the process!

Summer reflects on how the Lord met her amidst mourning. Toward the end of our conversation, Summer shares about what creativity looks like for her and how she discerns between doing things with excellence versus creating out of striving or misplaced identity.
