In this delightful end to season four (season four! huzzah!), I am joined by my friend Jess Connolly to talk about friendship, legacy, heartbreak, joy, and just for a plot twist, Jess’s current obsession with an obscure but very useful Amazon product. I’m saying we hit it all, and I loved it all. This ep is the perfect way to cap off a season, so lean in and listen to my life-drenched conversation with author, coach, podcaster, exceptional speaker, and dear friend, Jess Connolly.

As Jess tells it, when she was 15, you would have voted her least likely to succeed and definitely least likely to grow up and talk about the Bible. These days she’s just obsessed with leaving her generation more in awe of God than she found them. 

Jesus grabbed her heart, gripped it with grace, and she finds deep purpose + passion in His presence. 

She spends her days writing books, coaching women, leading their church, and trying to make her kids laugh. Go + Tell Gals is where she coaches + leads women and she and her husband, Nick, have the honor of leading Bright City Church.

If you’re in Charleston, stop by for worship anytime.

They’re praying to see the renewal of the American church, starting with their city. Their aim is to help people see the light of Jesus, be the light of Jesus, and shine the light of Jesus.
