On today’s episode we catch up on some things going on in our lives, {like PURSUIT in Lyn’s backyard THIS THURSDAY!! YOU should come!!} and what God’s been growing in us.  We share how hope, real lasting hope has helped us both in the darkest hours of our lives. We know all to well that sometimes in our right now, hope seems far off and unavailable. But, with reminding ourselves of truth, we can cling to the only promises that we can trust.

We also talk about our deep love for chalk board paint, and share some of our favorite, easy diy’s!

Our hearts are for you to be encouraged, and if you’re struggling with believing things can get better, know we’re praying for you!

Thanks so much for listening!

xo,

Lyn & Dannette
