A FEW FAVORITES FROM THE MONTH OF DECEMBER 2024

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs)

Happy January and happy New Year! This is our very first post of 2025 and I am so looking forward to seeing how the Lord is going to move in our lives this year! December was one of the best months here at The Few, as we posted a new post every day in December for Blogmas, and multiple new podcast episodes over on our show, A Few Minutes With The Few!

This favorites post will certainly be longer than the previous ones we did in 2024, but we are trusting it will be a great resource and provide you with easy access to all of our Blogmas content!

Our hope is that this will give you the opportunity to catch up on any podcast episodes, blog posts, and/or social media posts you might have missed, as well as be a post you can share with those you know who may be interested in reading and listening to the serious Christian content we strive to create!

Without further ado, here are a few favorites from the month of December…

As you get older, though, it expects a little more pursuit on your end. It pulls back a little and beckons you to step forward and fill the space. It asks you to give it just as much of your magic in being alive, and breathing, and created to glorify the Divine, as it gives to you of its magic. For without these things where does the magic really lie?
