Christian Working WomanWhen Craig Cooper and Walker Hayes met, Walker was an alcoholic atheist reeling from the backlash of a failed music career and Craig was a discouraged church planter. Their unlikely friendship and some of life’s hardest hits led Walker to share with his good buddy, “Craig, I believe it. All of it.” He gave his life to Jesus.
The two turned their story into the book Glad You’re Here. If Glad You’re Hereis the hands and feet of Jesus, Craig’s new devotional, Overflowing Mercies is the heart.
In this NOISY world, God’s heart beats hard with love and mercy. But how can God share His heart with us when He doesn’t have our attention? Overflowing Mercies is a doorway to giving God our attention so he can show us His heart.
Also, in this episode Shawna reflects on how, during Holy Week, the people there turned so quickly from shouting “Hosanna!” to shouting “Crucify Him!” From laying down their cloaks to stripping Jesus of his. How could they be so fickle?
And last Perry’s Monday was like a gloomy day in November but the next day was completely, unexpectedly like a sunshiny day in July. It has left him wondering “God how do you do that!”
Perry LaHaie's passion is to know Jesus and make Him known. “I’m all in with Jesus but not all put together. I need Jesus right now as much as I did when I first started following Him!” Perry says. In addition to co-hosting Perry and Shawna Mornings, Perry is a singer, songwriter, recording artist, and advocate for those who haven’t yet heard the gospel, especially those in the Muslim world. Born and raised in northern Michigan, he earned a bachelor’s degree in Communications and a graduate degree in Cross- cultural Communications. Perry also serves with Frontiers, a worldwide ministry to Muslims. Perry and his bride, Teresa, call Holland, Michigan home. They have two adult children, Kali and Taylor, and Taylor’s bride, Bri.
Shawna Beyer has a way of telling stories that create personal connection— to her, to one another, and to God. She has been a homeschool mom, church planter, project lead for a consulting company, and church staff member. Though she’s been involved in ministry with her husband (Dan) in Iowa, Arizona, and now Michigan, she was born and raised in Southern California and as they say, “You can take the girl out of California . . .” She is mom to four grown kids (Bryn, Drayson, Eden, and Haven) who no longer need her but humor her anyway. Shawna is passionate about the rhythms we weave into the fabric of our lives to fall more in love with God each day. Healthy foods are her go-to, but she will abandon that whole track in a heartbeat for a homemade cinnamon roll like Grandma used to make.
