I’ll take any excuse I can get to talk with Shannan Martin! This time we chatted about her most recent book release, Start With Hello, about being neighbors. (Last time we chatted about her first book, Falling Free, which celebrated its book birthday the day we recorded this interview!) On the surface, it seems simple – be a good neighbor. It’s one of our most basic callings as Christians (and people!), but practically, it can be one of the more difficult callings to actually live out. Shannan’s book isn’t a “how to” for neighborly living, but she does give some fantastic on the ground tips for how to engage the people closest to us with mutual love, care, and respect. Plus, she’s super hilarious and witty!
I can’t wait for you to hear this conversation and read more of Shannan’s work on neighbor love!
