Family life can be overwhelming, sloppy, tricky, and downright challenging. How can you find sanity in the chaos of everyday living? Cynthia Yanof is here to remind us that even when life is messy, God is still good. God isn't caught off guard when we drop the ball, lose our cool, or can't find anything clean to wear. He can use our ridiculous messes for good! In today's conversation based on Cynthia Yanof's new book, "Life is Messy, God is Good," you'll learn: 

2:14 How to find the funny when life isn't going how you'd planned  

7:10 Why it's insane to pay for something you don't have to 

11:30 The things God calls you to do can change you (and this is good) 

14:00 What holy discontent looks like 

18:40 Learning how NOT to parent from a place of reputation 

25:38 If you've ever been disappointed with the church, listen here  

Cynthia Yanof is a wife, mom, and podcaster who is ridiculously committed to not taking herself too seriously.  She is the host of the MESSmerized podcast and her new book is "Life is Messy, God is Good."
