For the Perfecting with Rachel French

In this episode we continue the discussion of miracles that we've seen God perform and how He is always there no matter where we are or what we are going through. We continue with a fifth open heart surgery that didn't have to happen, a cancer battle, a voice healed, and God's ability to heal the mind.

"I thought being in God’s will meant hard things wouldn’t happen. Then my son got sick—and everything changed.We were serving, trusting, and doing our best, yet still walked through heart surgery, leukemia, and cancer. In the hardest seasons, I learned that sometimes the miracle is healing—and sometimes it’s peace. Sometimes God calms the storm. Sometimes He holds you through it.And through it all, He was faithful."Save this for a day you need faith more than answers. Share it with someone who needs encouragement.

What do you do when the people closest to you are the ones who hurt you the most?In this episode of Betrayed By A Friend, we take an honest look at the stories of Judas and Peter—two men who walked closely with Jesus, both failed Him, and both felt the weight of betrayal. Yet their responses led them down very different paths.If you’ve ever been betrayed, this episode is for you. It’s a reminder that:Your failure is not finalYour pain does not disqualify youAnd God can still use your story for something greaterNo matter what you’ve walked through, Jesus is still the author and finisher of your faith—and He’s not done writing your story.
