'And She Lived Happily Ever After'/'Anxiety' with Skip McDonald

In 2005, Skip McDonald's book, And She Lived Happily Ever After, offered women a refreshing perspective on singleness. Unlike many books on the topic from that time, it didn't provide tips for finding a husband or offer advice on whether or not to kiss dating goodbye—instead, it empowered single women to live vibrant lives of grace and fulfillment right then and there. Then in 2020, Skip's Anxiety LifeGuide Bible Study released at the beginning of a turbulent global pandemic, and to this day, it continues to minister to readers in their mental wellness journeys. In this third and final bonus episode celebrating IVP's 75th anniversary, Skip opens up about her formative upbringing during the civil rights movement, her passions for writing and mental health, and the road that led her to pen these two important titles at timely points in the life of the Church.
