When Life is Beyond our Control with Lauren McAfee
In this captivating interview with Lauren McAfee, we delved into the heart of her new book, “Beyond our Control,” that she wrote with her husband Michael.
Lauren shared with us her personal journey through some of life’s most challenging moments, including her grief with infertility, her adoption journey, a cancer diagnosis, and a surprise battle with anxiety and panic attacks.
It was in these moments of vulnerability and uncertainty that she learned to navigate the depths of lament, and she found solace in clinging to God. Lauren’s resilience and unwavering faith shine through as she recounts the transformative power of her faith during these profound challenges. “Beyond our Control” is not just a book; it’s a testament to the human spirit’s capacity for growth and healing in the face of life’s most trying circumstances. Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking discussion on how we can all find hope and purpose amidst life’s challenges.

About Be Love. Do Good.
Ever notice how a simple thing can change your life? A simple lunch box note changed ours. A few years ago, my husband wrote a timely message to our son that said: BE STRONG, PROTECT THE WEAK, LOVE EVERYONE. Those words have become our family mission to the world. Each week on Be Love. Do Good. podcast, we will be sharing practical ways to live out this message.
You’ll hear tips and ideas, encouraging words, and stories of others who are being love and doing good in their communities in hopes to inspire YOU and your family to love in your own ways!
Each week we will be challenged to get out of our comfort zones and love others who are different from us. We truly believe knowing others helps us love well and that any act of love can change the life of another. Join us as we take practical steps to teach our children and families to be love and do good!
