I’m sure you’ve been there.  You're walking through the mall or the airport, minding your own business, when suddenly…out of nowhere, it creeps up on you and seizes control of you.  That indescribably amazing smell of fresh, hand-rolled soft pretzels from Auntie Anne’s! You are instinctively led to the back of the line and begin deciding which of the pretzels and dips you’ll choose from?  I’ve been there and if you are not familiar with Auntie Anne’s Pretzels….you are missing out!

This is “Behind the Mike: Conversations of Hope” and I am Mike Stone.  On today’s show, we have the great honor of talking with the Founder of Auntie Anne’s Pretzels, Anne Beiler.  If you thought that Anne was just another entrepreneur who wanted to make it big in the food industry, you would be mistaken.

Anne’s story, instead, starts in an Amish family in a small town in Pennsylvania.  Her story is like many from her Amish upbringing, but as a young adult she was abruptly met with tragedy, deep despair, secrets, and ultimately healing and redemption.  And yes, we’ll also talk about those mouth-watering, freshly baked pretzels. I wish we could figure out how to share one of Auntie Anne’s pretzels through your device…well, maybe next time.

Hey, if you only listen to one podcast this week, make sure it is this one!  Anne’s story will undoubtedly have you reaching for a box of tissues but leave you full of hope and encouragement. If you’ve ever been in a place of despair or hopelessness, you will want to listen to this story of finding true peace and joy in Jesus Christ, from Anne Beiler’s Conversation of Hope from Behind the Mike.
