Looking Back to See God’s Faithfulness with Author, Alice Smith
Posted in At This Table
Have you ever looked back over your life and realized God was present in ways you could not see at the time?
In this episode of At This Table, host Shelly Brown sits down with Alice Smith, author of Rearview Mirror: Following God’s Callings, a memoir-devotional that invites readers to look back—not to live in the past, but to recognize God’s presence, purpose, provision, and faithfulness along the way.
Alice shares why she identifies with Elizabeth from the New Testament, what it means to wait on God, and how the Lord often answers in ways we could never imagine. She also reflects on her childhood in rural Minnesota, the ordinary places that shaped her identity, and the unexpected callings that carried her into Christian education, ministry, missions, and service around the world.
This conversation is a gentle reminder that no part of our story is wasted. God can use the quiet seasons, the ordinary moments, the waiting, the relationships, and the simple acts of obedience to accomplish more than we could ever plan on our own.
In this episode, Shelly and Alice Smith talk about:
- Why looking back can help us recognize God’s hand more clearly
- The difference between cherishing the past and clinging to it
- How God’s presence gives meaning to our present moments
- Why ordinary lives can hold extraordinary purpose
- Saying yes to God when the road ahead is uncertain
- Encouraging younger generations to dedicate their gifts to God
- The continued purpose God has for us in every season of life
If you’ve ever wondered whether the ordinary parts of your life really matter, this conversation will encourage you to look again—and see the fingerprints of God.
