Treasured TruthAre there lies you’re believing about yourself that are keeping you from stepping into all God has for you? Shawna remembers the first time she thought her life didn’t matter and how that one thought has influenced her. Perry and Shawna talk about how to take captive those poisonous thoughts.
Perry’s excited about the release of his new song “Crashed Into Grace (Acoustic Version).” He admits thinking that maybe this is the song that will put his music on the map. But then wonders, “If that happens, will that give me the deep fulfillment my heart longs for?
Then, Perry marvels that all of his worst sins were committed after he started following Jesus. How is that even possible??
Shawna was so sad to find out her daughter wasn’t available to meet with her over the phone like they do every week. She had been anticipating that time together. It made her wonder, “Is this how God feels about me? Does He look forward to our talks like I look forward to talking with my daughter?”
Perry admits, “All my life I’ve tried to get the verdict that I’m a good person by winning. But God has allowed me to lose so many times.” It’s a conversation about the beauty of losing.
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.
