Welcome back! Becky Glaze, a Safer Beauty and Healthy Living Educator, is joining us today. As a child of Medical Missionaries, she learned early on in life the importance of taking care of your body and your spirit. After leaving home she learned how she was gifted in the world of business. But it wasn’t until after she shifted careers, and was walking through a very tough season in her life, that her two worlds came together and her calling became clear.

Come listen as we get to visit with my guest Deedra Bingham. She will share how her life changed when she chose to pursue God during the darkest time in her life. Her moment by moment choice to follow God revealed to her a deepening of relationship with Him and a fullness that can only be found in him. She discusses the Character of God, and how it is all about Jesus. It’s not about Jesus, it is just self-help or “try harder”, and that just falls apart.

Have you ever wanted to have a special connection with God like those people you read about in the Bible? Join me today as we talk about the importance of our pursuit of God. We are going to delve into the question by AW Tozer “Why do some people “find” God in a way that others do not?...” You’ll hear about spiritual receptivity, and how if we reciprocate God’s pursuit, our depth of relationship will result in a richness and fullness of life here on earth.

Come join me as I visit with my dear friend, Erin Nelson, as she shares the journey of God’s pursuit of her heart. It is a story of God’s provision, protection, and the love and grace of others. She questions rule-based faith and the belief that following God’s rules means He will bless you and then you will have a happy easy life. She will answer the question is God still good in the midst of pain and suffering?
