We Can Do Hard Things with Glennon Doyle: What to Do with Our Short, Precious Life with Kate Bowler

[The Stage is on Fire] is a page-turner in which, much like life, there are no easy answers and yet each step of the journey yields insight and hope. This work of heart must not be missed!

Katie Steedly’s first-person piece [The Unspeakable Gift] is a riveting retelling of her participation in a National Institutes of Health study that aided her quest to come to grips with her life of living with a rare genetic disorder. Her writing is superb.

I thank you … It is the authenticity of your “class notes”; and it is the delicacy and skill with which you present the nuances of classroom life and the actuality of your students’ and fellow teachers’ lives.

We Can Do Hard Things with Glennon Doyle: What to Do with Our Short, Precious Life with Kate Bowler

Hello, loves. Welcome back to We Can Do Hard Things. We’re going to jump right in. I’m so looking forward to this episode, sister Amanda and I have been talking about it all weekend. And that is because we have our dear friend who we’ve never met in real life here with us today. And her name is Kate Bowler, PHD, I didn’t know, before Kate, wow.
Is a New York Times Bestselling author podcast host and a professor at Duke university. She studies the cultural stories we tell ourselves about success, suffering, and whether or not we’re capable of change.
She’s the author of Blessed, a History of the American Prosperity Gospel, so good. And the Preacher’s Wife, the Precarious Power of Evangelical Women Celebrities after being diagnosed with stage four cancer at age 35, she penned the New York Times best selling memoir, Everything Happens for a Reason, and other lies I’ve loved, and her latest, No Cure for Being Human and other truths, I need to hear.
