GITM #4: Lauren Chandler

Hello and welcome to the Glorious in the Mundane podcast! Today I’ll talk a little bit about the week we have just had in our nation - one we will never forget - I’m sure there are all kinds of prayers and songs rising up from the people of God over this but one that kept coming to my heart was a song that I wrote several years ago called “By Our Love”…Brothers, let us come togetherWalking in the SpiritThere’s much to be doneWe will come reaching, out from our comfortsAnd they will know us by our love…Sisters, we were made for kindnessWe can pierce the darknessAs He shines through usWe will come reachingWith a song of healingAnd they will know us by our loveThe time is now,Come Church ariseLove with His hands,See with His eyesBind it around youLet it never leave youAnd they will know us by our loveChildren, you are hope for justiceStand firm in the truth nowSet your hearts aboveYou will be reachingLong after we’re goneAnd they will know you by your love…I’m so grateful to say that my guest today is the beautiful Lauren Chandler. She is such a dear friend to me. Lauren and her husband Matt live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area with their 3 children, 2 horses and 2 dogs, and Matt pastors The Village Church where Lauren regularly leads worship. Lauren is a wonderful woman, a lover of Jesus, a singer, songwriter and now author…but my favorite thing selfishly is that she’s my friend. Today you’ll get to hear how God intersected our lives at just the right moment about 14 years ago and how God used her in such a sweet way to change my life. Enjoy!
