The God And My Girlfriends Podcast
Women are born nurturers, but they sometimes overlook nurturing the three most important relationships in their lives: with God, their girlfriends, and themselves. Join hosts Marcia Ramirez and Stacey Wynn as they bring on friends and special guests to discuss ways to help enhance our spiritual lives, strengthen our friendships, and learn how to take better care of ourselves too!

The God And My Girlfriends Podcast
The girlfriends discuss Thanksgiving plans, food, boundaries and more, plus a conversation about Spiritual Direction with special guest, Marie Griffith
Our guest this week is writer, teacher, and spiritual director in training, Marie Griffith. Several years ago, Marie went through a season of untangling her faith from man-made traditions and came to know Jesus in a new way. She guides others in their spiritual formation, helps them know themselves and God better, and journeys with them through the stages of faith.
She earned an MA in Christian Spiritual Formation and Leadership from Friends University in May and paused her work toward an MDiv at Wesley Seminary while she completes her spiritual director training.
