Lisa LaTourette Shares A Journey Of Faith, Listening, And Spiritual Connection Through He Brews
Through He Brews, Lisa LaTourette shares her journey of faith, prayer, and learning to listen to Jesus through everyday moments.

After years of heartache, loss, and spiritual uncertainty, Lisa LaTourette found herself searching for something deeper than the faith she had always known. She prayed, believed, and sought comfort in Scripture, yet one question remained: What would happen if she stopped simply talking to God and began learning how to listen? That question became the foundation of He Brews, a personal memoir and spiritual teaching testimony chronicling her journey toward a closer relationship with Jesus Christ. What began as a quiet Wednesday morning ritual grew into three years of prayer, reflection, and spiritual discovery, inspiring both a book and a companion worship album.
He Brews Begins With One Question And A Willing Heart
For LaTourette, the journey behind He Brews did not begin with plans to become an author or musician. It began with a desire to know Jesus more personally.
After navigating difficult seasons marked by grief and uncertainty, she wanted to understand how to recognize God's guidance in everyday life.
Eventually, she asked a question that would reshape her spiritual practice: "Jesus, will You teach me how to hear from You?"
Rather than expecting an immediate revelation, LaTourette committed herself to a simple routine. Every Wednesday morning, she sat down with coffee, opened her heart to prayer, and made space to listen.
Through Scripture, journaling, reflection, and what she understood as personal guidance from Christ, she began documenting experiences that challenged and strengthened her faith.
Some mornings brought encouragement, while others invited difficult reflection, correction, or renewed responsibility. Over time, these appointments became more than a weekly habit. They developed into an ongoing exploration of what a personal relationship with Jesus could mean beyond traditional religious routines.
From Private Journals To A Personal Testimony
One distinctive aspect of He Brews is that becoming an author was never LaTourette's original goal.
"I never anticipated writing a book, much less one such as this," she shares.
For three years, she recorded prayers, insights, questions, and experiences in her journals. Her writing served as a personal record of spiritual growth rather than material intended for publication.
As the journals accumulated, LaTourette recognized a larger story emerging. She noticed recurring lessons about humility, discernment, service, forgiveness, and remaining open to correction.
According to LaTourette, a significant turning point came when she felt Jesus asking her to complete two unexpected projects.
The first was to plant a pollinator garden in a neglected area behind her home. The second was to transform her journals into a book.
Although different, both projects reflected a lesson she had come to value: faith should inspire meaningful action.
The garden offered an opportunity to care for nature, while the book created a way to share her experiences with readers exploring similar spiritual questions.
What began as private moments of prayer was becoming a testimony intended for others.
Lisa LaTourette Makes Spiritual Listening The Heart Of He Brews

Unlike books focused primarily on theological instruction, He Brews draws its lessons from LaTourette's personal experiences.
Part memoir and part teaching testimony, the book follows an ordinary woman seeking to develop what she calls her "holy ears," a phrase reflecting her desire to become more attentive to God's presence and guidance.
Rather than presenting spiritual connection as something reserved for religious leaders, LaTourette demonstrates how personal devotion can begin with ordinary choices.
Her Wednesday morning appointments required no elaborate setting. Coffee, a journal, Scripture, and a willingness to make time for prayer became the foundation of her practice.
That simplicity remains central to He Brews.
Through her experiences, LaTourette invites readers to consider how intentional reflection might influence their approach to faith.
The book explores patience when answers seem unclear, discernment when facing decisions, and humility when personal expectations are challenged.
For LaTourette, listening was not simply about seeking reassurance. It also meant examining her choices, accepting correction, and considering how her beliefs could guide her treatment of others.
Her testimony encourages readers to explore a deeper relationship with Jesus at their own pace while remaining grounded in Scripture, reflection, and meaningful action.
He Brews Love Transforms A Written Testimony Into Worship Music
LaTourette's creative journey continued after she completed the manuscript.
Once He Brews was sent to an editor, she felt inspired to revisit the words and lessons recorded throughout her spiritual journey.
Instead of developing another written account, she began composing music based on messages she believed she had received during her Wednesday morning appointments.
The result was He Brews Love, a companion album featuring nine worship songs.
According to LaTourette, every lyric traces back to words documented during her time in prayer.
The album extends the book's themes through music, giving listeners another way to engage with her reflections on faith, devotion, and spiritual connection.
For readers who connect with her testimony, the songs offer another perspective on the experiences that shaped it. For those encountering her work for the first time, the music introduces the central message of her journey.
The connection between the projects is intentional. While He Brews explains how LaTourette developed her listening practice, He Brews Love expresses what that practice came to mean to her.
Together, they present two creative expressions of the same personal testimony.
An Ordinary Life Becomes An Invitation To Explore Faith More Deeply
Based in Fairhope, Alabama, LaTourette describes herself as a writer, artist, and follower of Jesus.
Her story emphasizes the spiritual questions, personal challenges, and everyday choices that shape an individual's relationship with faith.
Rather than presenting her experiences as a universal formula, LaTourette shares how commitment, reflection, and personal responsibility influenced her spiritual development.
For those who feel disconnected from their spiritual routines, her story offers a reason to reconsider the value of quiet, consistent prayer.
For readers with an established faith, it provides another perspective on discernment, spiritual growth, and service.
The book also encourages readers to document their own reflections. Journaling can preserve meaningful questions, changing perspectives, and lessons gathered over time.
LaTourette's journey highlights an accessible idea: spiritual exploration does not always begin with extraordinary circumstances. Sometimes, it begins with a question, a willingness to listen, and the decision to return to that practice consistently.
Discover He Brews And Begin Your Own Journey Of Reflection
For Lisa LaTourette, He Brews and He Brews Love represent years spent seeking a more intentional relationship with Jesus and reflecting on how faith influences everyday life.
Through her book, she shares the experiences that shaped her spiritual practice. Through her music, she gives those experiences another form of expression.
Both invite readers and listeners to consider what might become possible when they make room for prayer, reflection, and a deeper understanding of their beliefs.
Those interested in LaTourette's testimony can visit the official He Brews website to learn more about the book and its companion album, He Brews Love. Visitors can explore the music inspired by her journals and consider beginning a personal reflection practice.
Her closing invitation captures the spirit of the project: "Sip your coffee. Quiet the noise. Become a receiver."
For LaTourette, the journey began with a single question. Through He Brews, she invites others to explore what their own questions might reveal.
