Get Your Hopes Up with Christy Wright

Christy Wrightwww.christywright.com
Get Your Hopes Up is a podcast by Christy Wright where she invites you to get to know God, get closer to Him, and get your hopes up again.  The truth is life can get you down. Between setbacks and heartbreaks, discouragement creeps in, and we stop letting ourselves hope for more. We say things like, "I'll believe it when I see it" and "Don't get your hopes up." But Romans 15:13 says, "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." That’s exactly what this show is about.  Christy is a #1 bestselling author, speaker, and business coach. She has been featured on The Today Show, Fox News, and in Success, Entrepreneur, and Woman's Day magazines. Whether she’s running around on stage or running after her kids, Christy lives out her faith and loves helping others do the same. She lives in Nashville, Tennessee, with her husband, Matt, and their three children: Carter, Conley, and Mary Grace.  Join her every Monday to start your week with motivation, faith, and—most of all—hope.
