Episode 46-- Gaps

Podcast Summary: In this 10-minute podcast, Tom Mohr shares the story of Elyse Vandersteen. With Elyse's permission and encouragement, Tom shares some of the most difficult struggles of her young life-- and how she has risen above them. Elyse's story teaches us that each of us brings to our call both gifts and gaps. But our gaps are, in a certain sense, gifts as well. Because they remind us of our humanity, and keep us humble as we interact with the other imperfect human beings all around us. Song Title: You Are Mine (God’s Lullaby) Song Summary: Tom Mohr wrote this song as a lullaby sung by God. As if He were singing to us. It’s a reminder of God’s infinite love and care. Robert Berry joins on instrumentals. Lauren Kadlec sings all the parts in the “children’s choir” harmony at the end.
