#47 Leslie Leyland Fields on Why Your Story Matters

Leslie Leyland Fields and I chat about place and how and why our stories matter. When the world has been upended by COVID-19, maybe some gentle writing practices might help you recover yourself and help you live into the questions.

Her newest isYour Story Matters: Finding, Writing and Living the Truth of Your Life which includes an 8-part RightNow Media DVD series filmed with Ann Voskamp. Her other books include Crossing the Waters: Following Jesus through the Storms, the Fish, the Doubt and the Seas, which won Christianity Today's 2017 Book Award in Christian Living. (And is also available as a DVD video series) and The Wonder Years: 40 Women Over 40 on Aging, Faith, Beauty and Strength.

There’s so many ways to attend to our places and our stories. @leslielfields on #findingholypodcast
Writing comes out of both silence and space. @leslielfields on #findingholypodcast
I never thought I would write a writing book. @leslielfields on #findingholypodcast
Writing is more than recording, but is a way to ask a lot of questions. @leslielfields on #findingholypodcast

ONE SMALL STEP
Use one of Leslie’s prompts: For once I want to tell the truth about ___________. Use it to word seek into it. Set a timer for 10 minutes. Don’t think about what comes out. Pursue God, the logos and truth and wait to see what new understanding comes from that.
