About this listen

 This Screwtape letter was a real kick in the pants for me. Because y’all, I really struggle to relinquish control of my own time. But Screwtape reminds us that even the idea that our time is our own is an illusion. Why does this feel like such an assault? Why is it so hard to just release my sense of control? Paula Bostock is a missionary from Brazil who moved to the UK for what she thought would only be a year of missionary work in Belfast. 8 years later, she’s now married and a brand new mamma, still living in the UK, and she joins me to share her story of discovering the freedom which came when she released control of her time, her body, and her entire life to God.Mentioned in this episodeOur wedding story on The Remarkable OrdinaryMy private podcast for paid subscribers of The Battle CryMy podcast with Dusty HeggeConnect with Dusty Hegge (a business consultant who supports Kingdom-minded writers, coaches, therapists, and leaders)Support the showBecome a patron of Magic Like This for £5 a month here.OR leave a review for us on Apple Podcasts!Read my essays and join my Celtic Prayer Writing Workshops at The Battle Cry:https://christinalynnwallace.substack.com/subscribeFind me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/magiclikethispodcastFor fellow writers:Battling imposter syndrome?
