We are back and so excited to chat with you today!  I took some time off to be with my family and attend two amazing conferences. In today's episode, I thought it would be fun to share with you my top 40 lessons I've learned in the last 40 years to celebrate my 40th Birthday.  However, to keep the episode short, I split it into two episodes. Tune in for the first 20 lessons, and if you would like to dig a little deeper into these lessons, sign up for our email list on https://hooks2crook.com. Also, did you hear my latest book, Awake My Soul: 3 Ways to Ignite Your Relationship with God, arrives in stores July 16, 2021!!! Pre-order your copy today for a discounted rate through Aug. 1st on https://hooks2crook.com/mhmerch/  This book walks both men and women through 6 weeks of personal one-on-one time with the Lord implementing three biblical principles. The unique aspect of this resource is you choose the book of the Bible you want to study, and it only requires 15 minutes a day. Everyone, even the busiest person, can find 15 minutes to carve out time for Jesus. All proceeds help fund translations and printed copies of this book for missionaries and pastors worldwide. God invites us all for a personal one-on-one with Him. Will you choose to accept His invitation?  I would love to hear lessons God has taught you from Scripture that have shaped your thoughts.

The day is coming when our little ones no longer need us 24/7. And as a mama, that is a struggle for me. Graduation is a huge milestone that, as a parent, we all know is around the corner. And sometimes it comes faster than we expect it.  I'm a mom of three adorkable older kids, we have faced this reality with one of our son and will be facing it again next year with our daughter.  With graduation, our role transitions into a coach instead of a parent because our child reached the milestone of Adulthood. So how do we do that? How do we transition into the life coach our Adult child needs? I share three steps in this episode that have helped me transition into this role after discovering the 7 styles of parenting. I unpack all seven styles and then give you the three steps.  Scriptures from today's episode:  Proverbs 22:6 (NIV) Roman 8: 38-39 (NLT) John 10:28-29 (ESV) Find out more about the Red Rover Community by checking out https://hooks2crook.com/redrover/ Learn more about and subscribe Hooks2Crook Ministries newsletter: https://hooks2crook.com Join the Book Launch Team for Awake My Soul: 3 Ways to Ignite My Relationship with God - https://forms.gle/CidEgNiHWsJKxwYm7 --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
