Made to Maginify with Morgan Krueger & Filling Your Kids Free Time with Purpose with Dr. Elizabeth Smith

Today, on Karl and Crew, we wrapped up our weekly theme of “What are you looking for?” with Morgan Krueger, who discussed the importance of keeping God the focal point and giving Him glory always, not taking it for ourselves. Morgan is a wife, mother, speaker, and author who found her voice connecting with women seeking biblical freedom from the brokenness of shame. Morgan has also written a book called “Made to Magnify: Choosing to Live for Jesus When Everything Tells You to Live for Yourself.” Then we had Dr. Elizabeth Smith join us to discuss what we should be doing in our free time and how to intentionally fill it, as well as our kids' free time. She also spoke about available classes through Moody Online. Dr. Smith is the Associate Dean of Academics for Moody Online and the Program Head of Children and Family Ministry. She is also a Professor for Moody Online and on the Chicago campus.
