Momentum: Episode #21 - Hallie Graves

Ep#21--Momentum-Guest-HallieGraves_1500x1500.png

Hallie Graves is a 30-something, energetic Jesus follower living the single gal life in Austin, Texas. A lawyer, passion-collector, and the director of Polished Austin, Hallie encourages women to live the fullest, freest life that Jesus has called them to live. She has advocated for budding entrepreneurs, Fortune 50 companies, and for children and families in child protection cases. She is obsessed with Broadway shows, La Croix waters, group fitness classes, books, and writing. A member of the Austin Stone Community Church, Hallie would love to have you join her there.

IF YOU HAVE EVER HAD TO LET GO OF YOUR EXPECTATIONS TO EMBRACE GOD’S CALL, THIS IS THE EPISODE FOR YOU

In our conversation, Hallie talks about the unexpected ways God has used her insecurities to speak to her about who He created her to be. She thoughtfully discusses how she is learning to embrace the passions God has placed in her and the indirect path she has taken to answer His call.

Hallie had a vision for her life and is candid in her admission that it has not gone the way she planned. She explores the ways God has worked in her as she learns to let go of her own expectations to embrace God’s call which, admittedly, hasn’t always been easy. 

HALLIE’S RECOMMENDATIONS:

SCRIPTURE:

And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; being strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy; giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
~ Colossians 1:9-14
