Reflections on the Year with Dan and Becky Allender

It’s become an annual tradition for Dan and Becky Allender to
reflect on their year on the podcast, and today, we get to hear
their personal reflections on 2023.


They discuss the loss of dear friends this year, the fragility of
life, the heartache of crises happening around the world, and the
impact of disappointment on some of their personal plans and
dreams. 


In the midst of grief, they also express gratitude for the
goodness they have experienced this year.


As we listen, themes of simplicity, aging, and the awareness of
life's brevity emerge. The Allenders discuss the need for
kindness and grace in facing disappointment and the importance of
not succumbing to fear, leaving us with hope as we look forward
to the new year.
