In this episode of the Eternal Echoes podcast, host Katharine Rose interviews Laura Crosby, a 67-year-old woman who shares her extensive journey in ministry and the lessons she’s learned along the way, particularly regarding her identity in Christ.

Laura encourages listeners to recognize and utilize their gifts and offer God “your little bit” – whether it’s extending someone an invitation or offering a word of encouragement. She also discusses various ways she has fostered meaningful connection with both God and others – even in a highly divisive culture.

Throughout our conversation, Laura highlights the importance of setting aside quiet time with God, the beauty of mentorship and community, and the benefit of practicing emotional awareness.

Wise words worth echoing:

-“Everybody can bring an invitation, a question, and a blessing. That's something that you can gift other people.”

-“God’s invitation every single day, no matter what, is to spend time with Him.”

-“God is never distracted. He's never in a hurry. He gives me his full attention and His full affection when I'm aware of it and when I'm not.”

-“In order to care for others well, we really need to listen and learn; listen to the stories that people are bringing in with them.”
