Welcome back to another episode of Confessions of a Crappy Christian, a misfit media network

production. I am your host and resident Crappy Christian Blake, and every week I get to have

the coolest conversations with incredible people about all the things most Christians

are still not sure we're allowed to talk about. So if you've been looking for a place to land

with all your crap and for someone to just be honest about what it looks like to walk through

this Christian life while you've come to the right place, pull up a seat, pop in your headphones

and tune out your kids, and come hang out with me

and a guest for the authentic conversations that you have been looking for.

Are you guys? I'm really excited about this episode of the show because I have one of my

best friends on

the podcast. I haven't gotten to do that in a minute. Join me in welcoming the wonderful Amy Bernhard

for the show. I am so happy to be here. And your intro rocks every single time. There's probably

going to be a lot of us just like complimenting each other and loving each other because we are mildly obsessed.

But we had a conversation.

Well, we've been having this conversation for years now because we've gotten to walk this road of honestly transforming our experience with motherhood together. And we've walked it

at different paces in different ways because as close as we are, our lives are very different.

And our work is similar, but very different. And so was that last week? I think, yeah, it was like

right around Thanksgiving.

I've just posted this one single story slide talking about how crazy it is going into the

holiday season this year homeschooling versus every other year, but especially last year

and how, or not really last year, I guess,

previous to that when I was like dreading the holiday season. I would dread summers.
