Guest post by JoAnn Bastien The road wound passed cornfields and barns set far back from the road. Maybe a nice scenic route for some but I was a city girl and the narrow, rural roads with no middle lines painted on the pavement made me nervous. My friend had suggested a […]
Guest post by Stacey Thacker Have you ever had someone ask you how they can pray for you and not known what to say? This happened to me as recently as last week. I was in a meeting and a trusted friend asked me that very question and I drew a complete blank. Was […]
. There are some folks you simply want to un-busy your life long enough to sit with, to make memories with, and my dear friend, Dr. Michelle Bengtson has long been one of those people for me. I love her enthusiasm for life and her desire to make a difference in the lives of hurting […]
When I met Linda Kuhar a couple years back, I knew she was the type of person I could and would call friend. Today I’m honored to celebrate with this beautiful girl the release of her powerful story, Worthy of a Miracle. Although doctors predicted Linda would never walk or breathe again on her own, she […]
