What does it mean to truly know that you belong, and how does secure belonging change the way you live, mother, and love others? In this conversation, Melanie and Christy are joined by Lydia Lucas to explore the joy of being welcomed into the family of God.

Together, they talk about our identity as beloved daughters, the difference between earning belonging and living from it, and how knowing we are loved by God frees us to make room for others. From navigating comparison and insecurity to creating a culture of belonging in our homes and relationships, you’ll be encouraged to live securely in who God says you are and let your everyday life become a shining invitation for others to experience his love and joy.

Lydia Lucas is co-founder of Latinas Loving Jesus. She serves as Chief People Officer at City Relief, a nonprofit serving people experiencing homelessness in the New York and New Jersey area. A wife, mother, grandmother, minister, and student, Lydia has a heart for people and a passion for helping others know they are seen, loved, and welcomed.
