Hi, friend. I'm so grateful you've joined me on the Jesus Over Everything show. If you haven't heard the news, we have gone retro this summer. For the months of June and July, we are featuring our five word prayers daily. The show, this show started as, and so many of you love so much, five-minute podcast shows on topics of all kinds, the short inspiration you need for every day of the week.

So enjoy these shows, keep listening all summer, and see you right here back in August for a

powerful season six.

Hi, and welcome to the Five Word Prayers Daily, a five-day-a-week daily devotional where we share

the word, prayers, and our heart. I'm Lisa Whittle, and I welcome you to just five minutes with me, which I trust and

pray will be five minutes well spent. I am honored, excited, and generally just happy about my

guest host today, Jackie Hill Perry. I had the joy of sharing a stage with Jackie back in August

for an event here, and it was not

only awesome to get to sit under her teaching, but also to get to be with her on a personal

level and get to know her a little bit. And yeah, she's just as cool and deep as I thought.

But what matters the most to me is that she's deeply committed to Jesus and the truth of

the Bible, a commitment, as you know, I share.

And so this artist, musician, writer, speaker, wife, and mommy has my attention because of that.

Her new book, Gay Girl, Good God, has just been released, and it's impacting a lot of people

because Jackie is an influencer.

God has called her to that.

And I'm standing beside her as a sister,

watching, praying, and supporting her all the way.

Grateful to have you on Jackie,

and welcome to the Five Word Prayers Daily.

Obedience is really hard.

I think for God to tell us, hey, don't be in this relationship or marry this person or move here or be kind in this way.
