This season marks a new beginning—one shaped by grief, surrender, and the deep work God does in places we never would have chosen, but where He so often meets us most faithfully. In this opening episode, Bryson shares why this season of the podcast will look different than the first two. After walking with her sister Beth through nine years of cancer and her final hospice days, Bryson stepped away from the podcast to grieve and wrestle with the Lord in a deeply personal way. Now, she returns changed—but anchored in the same truth that has always defined Honey For Your Heart: God is still writing good and perfect stories, even when they are hard.   Using the imagery of Kintsugi—the Japanese art of mending broken pottery with gold—this episode explores how God meets us in our brokenness, not to erase the cracks, but to fill them with His presence, grace, and purpose. Bryson reflects on the story of Joseph and the repeated promise that "the Lord was with him," reminding us that God's presence does not spare us from suffering, but it does ensure our pain is never wasted.   This episode sets the foundation for the season ahead—one that will focus on lessons learned in the deep places: waiting, gratitude, surrender, living with an eternal mindset, and trusting God when His plan looks different than our own.   Whether you are grieving, waiting, questioning, or simply weary, this episode is an invitation—to sit with God in the tension, to trust Him in the unfinished chapters, and to believe that even here, He is still at work.   Scripture Referenced Psalm 34:18 Genesis 39:2 Psalm 130:5 What's Coming This Season In the weeks ahead, we'll talk about: Why waiting is active, not passive Gratitude as a spiritual practice, not just a feeling What it truly means to live with an eternal mindset Holding our human desires alongside surrendered trust in God's plan Thank you for being here—and for walking into this new season together.   Additional Resources: "Lessons From The Deep" Listening Guide "Lessons From The Deep" Study Guide "Lessons From The Deep" Companion Scripture Guide "Lessons From The Deep" Small Group Discussion Guide   Follow along on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/honey_for_your_heart/  
I am so thrilled to introduce you to Kari Kampakis today! Kari is a best selling author and speaker focusing on very practical and godly tips for primarily teens (but other stages as well) and wisdom for parenting through all stages of childhood. I discovered her books about 4 years ago at a time when I was newly parenting teens and felt very lost in how to navigate that season well. A friend gave me Kari's book Love Her Well and it was truly eye opening and life changing for me, especially during that season. Soon after, we added Kari's books to Clover + Bee and had her come in for a special event for moms. Kari's wisdom is truly a gift from the Lord. She has the ability to share it in such a practical, common sense way that is easy to digest and immediately implement. Her tips are so helpful to learn how to love your child well and relate to him or her in whatever season you find yourself in.   Kari describes herself as a deep thinker, saying if you met in person, she would want to skip the small talk and dive straight into the coffee talk. That is the treat you are in for today! She has been featured on the Today Show, Focus on the Family, multiple podcasts, Yahoo News and so much more.   Kari and I dive into her story for a bit but then really settle into that good coffee talk tackling issues like anxiety, adult friendships, social media, boundaries and more. If you are a parent in any season of life, wondering if you are alone or if you are getting this thing right or how to navigate the stage you are in, grab a pen and paper and pull up a seat - this episode is just for you!   To learn more about Kari, her books and her upcoming speaking events, visit https://www.karikampakis.com/
At the core, this podcast is rooted in storytelling. Typically, we would walk through the story of a guest and encounter the Lord and His redemptive work through the lens of that particular story. But on this episode, we change that up a bit. Today, I want to invite you to intentionally step into your own story armed with the knowledge you obtain as you listen to this episode. Let me explain what I mean…   Our guest today is Laura Williams. Laura is the co-owner of Be Found Counseling in Brentwood, TN just south of Nashville and the host of the Encountering You Podcast which tackles touch issues in mental health and how they relate to your faith journey. Laura specializes in trauma therapy and an incredibly powerful concept called re-parenting. You might be thinking - I really don't have trauma in my life - I've not had anything major happen to me. Right off the bat, Laura dives into what trauma really is and I assure you, what she says will resonate with you.   A friend of mine says, "God Fathers best by taking us back through our story. You can not write a new story until you deal with the one you've been given". So, the hope today is that we are able to encourage each of you step into your own story from a high level perspective and start or maybe continue the process of story work.   Our prayer is that as you listen today you would feel seen in ways you haven't before or maybe receive clarification on a space within your emotions or thoughts that has been confusing or possibly even alerted to places in your life that need to be attended to currently. The tools and information Laura shares on this episode are truly life-changing. Definitely grab a pen and paper for this one and enjoy understanding more about how God has perfectly created you and discover the pathway back to the true essence of who He created you to be.   For more information on Laura, visit https://www.befoundcounseling.com/
Do you find yourself feeling "stuck" in the hard seasons of life? Maybe you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, confused, alone or simply not sure how to survive one more day in the space you find yourself today. If I am describing you, know that you are not alone and in God's grace and kindness, He has a special word, especially for you today.   My guest today is Lauren Fortenberry. Lauren is a writer and speaker with a passion to fearlessly and faithfully encourage women through the love of Jesus Christ. Her desire is to point every Sister's heart to God's promises and healing. This desire and passion was born out of a very hard season in her own life. Today, she shares her journey through that season and the beautiful way the Lord met her there and began to teach her daily more about Who He is and what He promises - and it all started with a single prayer.   She is the Author of One Prayer Away, an inspirational and encouraging devotional book written in poetic form that daily points you to the freedom that can be found in Christ. Lauren states: "When you cannot see the road ahead. When you wonder if the hurt is beyond healing. When you are at the edge of what your heart can handle. Whether you are struggling or seeking, flying or failing - God is with you! You can trust Him to hold you through it all."   As you hear Lauren share her story today, it is our prayer that the Lord would use her words to bring peace, encouragement and healing to your soul and most importantly remind you that you never walk a single second of this life alone. He is with you. He is for you. He is holding you and He is not wasting a moment of the season you are in.   For more information about Lauren or One Prayer Away, visit https://laurenfortenberry.com/
If you find yourself struggling with anxiety, burnout and insecurity, especially as it relates to the comparison game that is so prevalent on social media today, this episode is one you do not want to miss!   My guest today is Whitney Lowe. Whitney is a Christian influencer who wants to see young women excited about God's work: in the Bible, in history, in the world, and in them. She writes and creates an Instagram called @ScribbleDevos, which was a project born from the realization that young women simply do not interact with the Bible enough to be changed by its truth.   Whitney is passionate about disrupting the toxic scroll of social media with hope, peace, and light straight from Scripture. She lives in Denver, Colorado, with her husband, who is a pastor, and their two young children   She just released a new book called Set Your Eyes Higher: A 40-Day Reset to Slow Your Anxiety and Fix Your Focus on God. The book was inspired by the realization that constantly staring at her phone and computer were causing her increased anxiety and insecurity – and that the only way to combat this addiction to screens was to set her gaze UP and OUT.    Today, we dive into a number of common toxic struggles including social media information overload, insecurity and anxiety, burnout, rest vs counterfeit rest, the joys and struggles of motherhood, and so much more! Whitney has a gift of simplifying these issues that can seem to drown us and overwhelm us into understandable truths with practical applications to break free from the struggle and step into a Godly rhythm in these areas of our lives. This conversation was so life giving and encouraging to me - I know it will be for you as well.   For more information about Whitney, visit https://www.scribbledevos.com/
My guest today is someone that I've followed on social media and watched her inspiring story unfold for several years. Last year, I had the privilege to meet her at a conference and hear a bit more of that story but also see her authenticity and vulnerability first hand.   Tara Austin is the founder and CEO of Ruthie Grace, a women's clothing boutique empire. She has a storefront in Montgomery, TX and a massive online presence servicing customers all over the globe. In addition to Ruthie Grace, she is also the co-owner of Forged, a men's boutique with her husband Josh and she has recently been spending much of her time investing in other retail store owners, teaching strategies to grow and scale their businesses, as she has done with Ruthie Grace. In addition to all of those things, she is the mother to three precious boys! Needless to say, she is very busy.   Today, Tara shares the history of Ruthie Grace, which she started with very little experience but a lot of confidence in how the Lord created her and gifted her. She also dives into how the Lord walked with her through a season of extreme burnout and ultimately uprooted some deep lies she was believing about herself and how He transformed her as a person, calling her to then share that journey with others.   I know, that like me, you will find inspiration in Tara's story as she stepped out on faith and trust into a calling the Lord had on her life. And you will find encouragement in her vulnerability as she shares some of the deep valleys she walked along the way and how the Lord was faithful to His promises to redeem and refine her as he carried her through the storm.
We hear the word "intentional" a lot these days and we are encouraged to live with intentionality. But we live in a world full of distractions and responsibilities that seem to choke out the ability to really choose how we live versus letting our lives dictate for us. I know that is a constant struggle for me and I find myself longing for simplicity. If that is you as well, today's episode is one you don't want to miss!   Lara Casey Isaacson is a mom to three (one through the gift of adoption), a grateful wife, and a believer in the impossible. She created the PowerSheets grace-filled goal setting planner and the Write the Word journals, and she founded Southern Weddings magazine a decade ago. Lara is also the author of Make It Happen: Surrender Your Fear. Take the Leap. Live On Purpose.   Today, Lara shares her fascinating story of creating multiple businesses and how that practically looked in her life, while also touching on the difficult seasons she walked through in the midst of the successes she was finding in those businesses. It was during those harder seasons that the Lord gave her a desire to truly live intentionally or "cultivate what matters" which would become a thriving business that is still growing and helping countless people get "unstuck" in life and step fully into their purpose and Godly goals for living.   Currently, Lara has moved into a new season of life, stepping away from Cultivate and is living in NC, where she loves getting her hands dirty in the garden.   I know that no matter where you are in your life journey, you will find this episode to be both encouraging and helpful as Lara offers some very practical tips to beginning or even continuing the process of cultivating what matters in your world and living intentionally in the place the Lord has you today.   For more information on Lara, visit: https://laracasey.com/
My guest today is a special friend who is sharing her story for the first time publicly. If life has ever thrown you very unexpected and painful curve ball that changed the trajectory of your future in ways you could have never imagined, this episode is for you.   Harleigh Portante is a beautiful friend who is also one of our models at Clover + Bee. She is a former Miss Teen Alabama and Miss Alabama USA. Growing up, Harleigh's life seemed like a fairytale but she would soon find out that it was anything but that. She takes us back to the day everything changed and her life would never look the same again. But she also shares how she can look back and see the Lord literally right next to her every step of the way. If you are in a season of deep grief or unexpected, life changing hardship, you will find understanding and compassion in Harleigh's authentic words today and you will find encouragement to keep going as she shares how the Lord never left her side.
Today's episode is a special one both for me personally and for the month we are in. As most of you know, October is breast cancer awareness month and as we wrap up October, I'm so grateful for the opportunity to introduce you to my sweet friend Lexie Appleby who is a breast cancer survivor and advocate. Breast cancer has touched my life as my mom was diagnosed with it in October of my junior year of high school and passed away after a brief battle in June of the following year. So this episode is special for me in so many ways.   Lexie's story is one that is full of chasing dreams and finding herself on top of the world only to have it all come crashing down with the news of her breast cancer diagnosis. In that moment, by God's grace, she made the crucial choice to see this diagnosis not as a burden but as an unexpected opportunity from the Lord to use her story in ways only He could. She takes us on her incredible journey today through the pageant world as an NFL cheerleader and now as an influencer and speaker through her Born To Sparkle Brand.   If you find yourself wrestling with unexpected news or suddenly in an unplanned season, you will be encouraged as you hear Lexie share her story of God's faithfulness through her journey and the reminder that He does not break His promises to lead us to His calling and purpose for our lives.   So pull up a seat, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy hearing from my sweet friend, Lexie Appleby.   For more information on Lexie and Born to Sparkle, visit https://www.instagram.com/lexie_appleby/?hl=en
I am so very grateful you are joining us today. Like Season One and Two, this season is full of broken and beautiful stories that will encourage, challenge and inspire you. As you listen, you will be encouraged by God's unfailing faithfulness. He does what He says He will do. He is a promise keeper who NEVER forsakes - even when we doubt Him. You will be reminded that you are NEVER alone in your story. No matter where you are today, God is there, walking with you and working in you. In the unexpected, He is in control. In the delay, He is faithfully working. In the hurt, He is healing. In the pain and grief, He is comfort. In the joys and successes, He is glorified. When the seasons change, He does not. This is why we tell our stories! Because each time we share our story, whether in a public setting or quiet moment, we are reminded that God does not leave us or forsake us and He has been working for our good through it all. Our stories point to the only source of hope, peace and joy in this life - fixing our eyes on Jesus. So as you enjoy hearing the stories this season, once again, it is my prayer that as you listen, you will be ushered to the presence of God and that He would meet you in your own story through the messages of those you hear this season on Honey For Your Heart.   So it's become a tradition to kick off each new season of Honey For Your Heart with a guest from a previous season: kind of like a "where are they now episode". So, continuing that tradition, I am SO excited to welcome Mattie Jackson Smith back to Honey For Your Heart to launch our first episode of Season Three. Mattie joined us on season one and shared about her journey through very unexpectedly losing her husband Ben to a tragic accident after only 11 months of marriage. She walked us through her powerful book Lemons on Friday, which is one of my favorite books still to this day. In this book, Mattie so eloquently expresses the real time emotions and struggles of grief while also pointing to powerful, foundational truths that are critical to navigating grief from a Biblical perspective. If you haven't read the book or listened to Mattie's episode in season one, I highly recommend doing both!   When we left Mattie last, she was preparing to get married to Connor in a few months. Today, we pick up where we left off with Mattie and hear all about her life updates and how grief looks now in a new mountaintop season. She also has just released a new devotional book called: Through The Valley of Grief: Daily Rhythms to Navigate Grief. If you are walking through any kind of grief or even just a hard season, this devotional book provides incredible tools to daily go before the Lord with your struggle, with eyes fixed on Him, even on the darkest of days. You will enjoy hearing Mattie talk about how the Lord gave her four practices that truly helped her navigate her grief authentically and spiritually.   Follow Mattie here: https://www.instagram.com/mattiejackson/?hl=en
Today is the finale in our Men of May series and we are ending with another fantastic episode! I have really enjoyed this mini series and I pray you have too! I hope you have found it encouraging, uplifting and a nice way to change things up a bit on Honey For Your Heart!   If you are a regular listener, you most likely heard Melody Hemphill's beautiful story of brokenness and redemption a few months ago on the show. If you haven't heard it, I highly recommend you listen to her powerful testimony. Today, I am joined by her husband Randy Hemphill who shares the other side of their story. Randy is the founder of Life Ministries. He is an author, speaker, counselor and he and Melody are some of our dearest friends!   Each week, I pray that the Lord would speak directly to the ears that are listening in ways that only He can. This week, He had a word specifically for me through Randy's story and to be honest, it caught me a little by surprise! You will hear more about that as you listen but it was a sweet reminder that the Lord does truly meet us right where we are as we listen to others share their stories. He is faithful to allow us to find ourselves in the narrative while reminding us in those moments that He is a God who sees and knows the deepest parts of our souls and meets us there with unchanging love, mercy and compassion. I know that as you listen today, you will find that to, once again, be true.   Psalm 42:1 says, As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God." As Randy eloquently states in this episode, we pray that these words are refreshing streams of water for your thirsty soul.   For more information about Life Ministries and Randy, visit http://www.lifeministriesnow.com/
We are continuing our special mini series titled Men of May: Stories of Women's Impact and Inspiration where we are hearing the incredible stories of men God is using in powerful ways for the kingdom, but also looking through their eyes at the women He has surrounded them with who serve alongside them in ministry.   Today, I am joined by Micah McElveen. Micah's story is extraordinary.   A surfing accident left Micah dead. But God wasn't done. Through that brush with death, Micah's dreams were shattered but a new path for his life emerged as God gave vision for a world-impacting ministry.

In 2005, Micah founded Vapor Ministries. Today, they operate ministry centers in multiple countries, serving hundreds of thousands on a weekly basis and employing hundreds of indigenous people. Micah is married to Audrey, who was also a guest on this season of Honey For Your Heart sharing her extraordinary story that undeniably showcases God's grace and mercy. Today, you will have the privilege of hearing not only Micah's inspiring story but also peeking in to the other side of his love story with Audrey and the clear calling the Lord placed on their lives as a team to literally change the world for His glory.   Micah says, "at the end of the day, life is a Vapor. The question is, will we waste it, or invest it?". As you listen today, our prayer is that the Lord will meet you at the intersection of that question and you will find encouragement and inspiration to follow Him wherever He may lead.   https://www.micahmcelveen.com/ https://www.vaporministries.org/
We are in the middle of our Men of May Series where we are highlighting and honoring the inspirational influence of some extraordinary women as we look at their lives through the lens of the men they have impacted.   Today, I am joined by my friend Josh Orr. Josh is an entrepreneur and a podcast host. He is the founder of Capital Commerce and is also one of the hosts of the annual Manifest Conference. I had the privilege of meeting Josh last fall at the Manifest Conference and began working with him shortly after. Josh's story is nothing short of amazing and as you hear him share about the incredible sacrifices his mom, who was a single mom, made that got him to where he is today, you too will be both encouraged and inspired. If you feel like you are not enough or you aren't making a difference, this is the episode for you. We dive into those topics and much more as we look at Josh's journey and the tribute he pays to both his mom and his beautiful wife, Kristen. So grab a good cup of coffee and maybe some tissues as you listen in to this incredible story.   To learn more about Josh, visit https://madebycapital.com/
Today, we are kicking off a very special mini series called Men of May: Stories of Women's Impact and Inspiration.   The month of May holds particular significance as we celebrate the profound influence of mothers and women everywhere. While we typically feature the unique and powerful stories of women, in this exciting mini-series, we turn the spotlight onto men who the Lord is using in mighty ways. Each week in May we will hear their stories, while paying tribute to the remarkable women God has strategically placed in their lives. We will highlight and honor the invaluable role these women play in uplifting, encouraging, and inspiring our men on their journeys.   We kick off our series with my great friend Jeff Simmons. Along with being an author and speaker, Jeff is the Founding and Senior Pastor of Rolling Hills Community Church in Nashville, TN and serves as the President of Justice and Mercy International.   I had the privilege of working with Jeff and Lisa many years ago. He has had a profound impact on my life and I have been able to see firsthand how the Lord called Him to great Kingdom work and surrounded Him with amazingly gifted, wise and strong women who walk alongside him in ministry.   If you wonder what your purpose is or ever feel like your job, giftings or role is mundane or even trivial - this episode is for you. Today, we take a deep dive into how the Lord has a calling and a purpose on each life, exactly where you are. And He is using right where you are today with whatever talents you have today in whatever circumstances you are in today to accomplish His work in a bigger story. Our job is to simply lean in and let Him work. In the hands of the One who can do "immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine", the ordinary becomes extraordinary. So grab a cup of coffee and join me as we hear Jeff's story.   For more information Jeff, visit https://www.jeffsimmons.org
Angela Correll is a best selling author and successful entrepreneur. Today we talk about Angela's latest book, Restored in Tuscany: A True Story of Facing Loss, Finding Beauty, And Living Forward with Hope. The book is fascinating story of Angela and her husband Jess's time in Italy which ultimately led to buying and restoring a home there while paralleling how the Lord was also restoring Angela's during that process.   For those that feel exhausted in life, or maybe overwhelmed by the season you are in - this story is for you! I know that, like me, you will find yourself in the details of Angela's story and you will also find a God who is calling you into quiet rest with Him where He is waiting to restore places deep in your soul that only He can. I pray that you feel the mercy and grace of the Lord wash over you today as you listen.   For more information on Angela and her books, visit https://angelacorrell.com/
Most of us would probably say we want to make a difference in this world but we are often not really sure how to do that.   My guest today had that same thought and prayed that the Lord would show her how and He did just that.   Jovana Mullins is the creator of Alivia Clothing. God gave her a creative mind with a love for fashion. Growing up with a mother who taught special education and after volunteering at an organization serving those with special needs, the Lord opened the door to combine her passion for fashion with her love for those with disabilities and Alivia clothing was created.   Understanding that each and every person is created beautifully and wonderfully by the Lord, Alivia uses fashion as a platform to connect conscious consumers with the talents of people with disabilities. I know you will be just as fascinated and inspired as I was when you hear Jovana's incredible story of how a gorgeous piece of clothing starts with the creative mind of beautiful individual with disabilities.   For more information, please visit: https://www.shopalivia.com/
Have you ever had a moment where the Lord undeniably and unexpectedly brings someone in your life that you know will change it forever? That happened to me a little over a year ago with my sweet friend, Elizabeth Evans.   Elizabeth is the reason Honey For Your Heart exists. She is our producer and has been with us from the start, paving the way to what you are enjoying today. As the producer, Elizabeth normally stays behind the scenes, but today I am SO thrilled to have her join me on the other side of the mic.   Elizabeth is one of those people who you feel instantly connected with. Her love for the Lord is written all over every interaction you have with her and He is using her in BIG ways to make a difference for His kingdom.   Her story is one of difficult seasons, miraculous interventions, bold life changes and often scary decisions requiring radical faith and obedience. But through it all, there is a common thread: God is trustworthy, faithful and is constantly redeeming and restoring, not wasting a single second of our stories.   As you hear Elizabeth share her amazing journey today, I know that, like me, you will encounter a good Father who is personal and intentional with His children, never leaving them alone and always working for their good.   Perhaps you know this but need a sweet reminder today. Elizabeth's story will be like honey for your soul as you remember God's faithfulness in your own life as she shares about His faithfulness in hers. Or maybe you doubt if God is good and can be trusted. Maybe He seems distant and anything but good. If that is you today, our prayer is that through Elizabeth's story, you will meet a God who knows you perfectly, loves you intimately and can be trusted to tenderly hold every doubt, every fear, every decision, every emotion, every question, every bit of shame you may feel and cover them with his unending mercy and grace as you surrender in obedience to Him. So grab a cup of coffee and allow the Lord to meet you right where you are as you listen to Elizabeth's story.   Follow Elizabeth here: https://www.instagram.com/elizabethevans.co/ Learn more here: www.elizabethevans.co
Today, I am joined by a fellow podcaster, Lauren Cunningham. Lauren has an amazing journey that is full of twists and turns and literally leaves you with your jaw open in amazement at some points. But through it all, the Lord was writing a very beautiful story that only He could write, teaching her about His love along the way and leading her to a passion and calling that is impacting countless lives today.   So grab a cup of coffee and settle in for a story that will remind you that if life seems completely confusing, hard and very unexpected, the Lord has not left you and He is truly working all things together for your good.   Find more about Lauren and the So Can I Podcast here: https://laurencunningham.co/about
You are in for a special treat today with our guest Ashley McMakin. Ashley owns Ashley Mac's Kitchen: a thriving catering business along with 5 restaurants that are mouth wateringly good!   To give you a little history, Ashley crafted meals that became like edible greeting cards for the community. In moments when words were not enough, they gave poppyseed chicken and yeast rolls. On no-cook days, moms relied on Ashley to put a warm meal on the table. And for celebrations, they served her mouthwatering strawberry cake.   She has achieved enormous success in her businesses and we dive into how it all started - which is fascinating. But her story hasn't always been easy. Ashley walked through years of infertility and we talk through how the Lord carried her through those years and ultimately gave her a big beautiful family both through biological birth and adoption. You will love hearing Ashley's wisdom as a business owner and her heart as a mom.   The tagline of her business is: Serving hand-crafted southern food to the community - feeding the moments that matter. And this is truly Ashley's purpose for Ashley Macs.   So cozy up for an encouraging and inspiring story of a business born out of passion and a mom born out of God's grace - both trusting the Lord and His good plan and His perfect timing.   To find out more about Ashley Mac's Kitchen, visit https://www.ashleymacs.com/
I remember, at a young age, seeing in scripture that Abraham was called a "friend of God." Those words jumped off the page to me and I remember thinking - wow! I wonder how you get to actually be "friends" with God - so much that it's even recorded in scripture.   Well, my guest today has a passion for that very thing and has devoted her life to ministry and teaching others about the friendship of the Lord. I am so excited for you to hear from Faith Eury Cho today.   She has been in ministry since she was 19 years old and in her words, met Jesus at a young age and hasn't stopped talking about Him since. She is a speaker, author, CEO and founder of The Honor Summit, church planter, and much more. She has a new book out called Experiencing Friendship with God that looks at what that means and the path to getting there (spoiler alert: the wilderness is involved).   I know that, like me, you will find Faith's words to be both encouraging and challenging but definitely life giving as we dive into what it means to have a personal friendship with God and how we get there.   If you are deep in a wilderness season and feeling angry, confused, frustrated, even wondering if God is there and why it all even matters or if you are in calmer days but still feel like you don't really KNOW God or want to know Him more personally, this message is for you!  So grab a cup of coffee and your journal or notebook (you will want to take notes - I promise) and meet a God who is bigger than any wilderness you will ever face but desires you to know Him intimately.  To learn more about Faith and her ministry, visit https://www.faitheurycho.com/
