Do you remember what it was like to be a teenager, trying to find your identity in Christ? Do you have a difficult or awkward teenage memory etched in your mind? My guest today is Hannah Conway. Hannah is a speaker, podcaster, women’s minister and author of several books, including her newest release, In Case You Forget: A 6-Week Devotional about Who You Are in Jesus.
Hannah is passionate about supporting children and teenagers during these vulnerable years. Growing up, Hannah’s father was incarcerated, which raised questions for her about her identity and self-worth. Now, it’s her passion to help girls understand who they are in Christ and what God says about them.
For someone who struggled to find her identity in Christ for a long time, I can tell you just how important it is to learn this at a young age. And if you’re like me, a bit of a late bloomer, well you’re in good company, and it’s never too late to start!
