Drawn by the Thread

Join Kandalyn and me as she shares her story of fostering. She tells us the story about why they chose to foster, and how it was the light during a dark period of her life. She and her husband Tony pastor the Church on Detroit, they have 4 of their own young children, 3 biological and one adopted, and they are currently fostering a 6-month-old baby. They also have an adult child that they fostered in his teens. Oh, and they own and operate a photography studio. 

Here is the song Kandalyn talks about: https://youtu.be/xOgAmQvOUM0

Join Dianne and me as she reflects on her time in the Air Force, including a kidnapping like no other. Dianne was stationed at the Pentagon on 9-11. Today, she graciously shares her experience with us.  Her story reminds us that God's light can penetrate any darkness. His covenant is there for us whether we accept it at the time or not. And that He is the hope we need.

We can learn so much from Abigail. She is a beautiful woman of God and her actions confirm that. Listen in as Tina and I dive into the story of Abigail; who she is, what she does, and even a glimpse of Jesus. 

Tracy McPherson joins me to talk about the Samaritan woman Jesus met by the well. Learn more about her, how Jesus is gently breaking down gender and racial barriers and how this divine appointment teaches living water. 

Join Heather Starnes and I as we discuss Rahab. Her shortcomings, her victories and her place in Israel's history. Rahab opened the door to the promised land for Israel. She became a heroine as she is mentioned in the "Hall of Faith" as well as James. Perhaps her biggest mention is in Matthew 1:5, as she is part of the lineage of Jesus. 

Join Kandie and I as we dive into the life of Mary and Martha. We learn that all is not what it seems as we look at the cultural expectations of the times. We see Jesus breaking down more barriers. And we discuss the value both Martha's and Mary's in furthering the kingdom of God. Finally we share why we would want both women as our friends.

We look at the Wise Woman and her boldness, intelligence and humility. We discuss why we would love to have her for a friend. And we dig into Proverbs for more info on wisdom.

Join me as I talk to Heidi about Mary Magdeline. Who she was. Who she wasn't. Heidi shares her trip to the Holy Land and how Magdala transformed her. And we discuss why Mary Magdeline would be our friend if we met her today.
