Helpful and encouraging!

This podcast is FULL of useful and inspiring Scripture, Christ-following role models & perspective-shifting truths. No matter who you are and where you are in your life’s journey, you will hear something here that connects to you, right where you are, and shines a light on it to help you move forward in your walk with God. I am so thankful to Hanna and all her guests on this show for sharing their hearts, and most of all to God our Creator, who faithfully reveals His heart to us every day.
