Filtering the Noise in a Loud World with Aubrey McGowan

Friends! Have you gotten my new book It’s Time to Talk to Your Kids About Porn yet? If not, listen to today’s guest give a review of the book at the end of the podcast and be inspired to get your copy right here today!

I met today’s guest, Aubrey McGowan, at a home school mom conference called Wild and Free! What a fun way to meet this guy. Aubrey and his wife Jen are tremendous musicians, and they have performed at many of the Wild and Free conferences I have been a part of. Aubrey is also creative in other ways: he’s a passionate communicator and a gifted writer.

In today’s episode we are talking about Aubrey’s new book, Filter the Noise: how to Hear God’s Voice in a Culture of Chaos.

We have so much noise in our life--the noise of the physical world, the noise of the digital world and the inner noise—those voices in our head that so often tell us things that aren’t true.

Aubrey asks the question: what does Christ say to this?

While the world tells us we always need more, Christ tells us He is enough.

Aubrey shares with us the practice he outlines in the book that can help us filter the noise we don’t want or need in this life. But Aubrey reminds us: “The power is in Jesus, not in the practice”

This practice is a way to point people to Jesus

Friends, this is a longer than usual episode, but when Aubrey gets fired up he brings the wisdom and the fire and I don’t want to stop him! So sit down, grab a cup of coffee and be inspired by what Aubrey shares here. Let’s go!
