Description
The story may captivate you, but it's the Word of God that will heal you! Come join me and my husband, Johnny Green, as we share our story of loss & restoration!
After my husband passed away from Glioblastoma in 2017, the Lord used his illness and death for good by leading me to start a ministry to the brokenhearted - Cloth & Clay Ministries. What I have learned is that we are all brokenhearted in some way. Suffering and tragedy come to all of us at some point.
