Episode 20 | "Special Needs for a Special Purpose" Join me and my guests as they share how God has met them in the darkest of times, even silently questioning, "What did I do to deserve this? What did I do wrong?". My guests share how God has in turn whispered words of love and has displayed His mighty works in their own lives and the lives of others touched by their children with special needs. John 9:1-5 plainly displays that God desires to use frail humanity as a platform to display the works of God. Special needs are for a special purpose, whether those needs manifest themselves through physical handicaps, emotional challenges or personal weaknesses.

"Fear: My Friend, My Foe," Join me on the Friend to Friend Podcast, as my guest, Gina Iglesias, shares her story of facing the premature birth of her third son, Parker, at 27 weeks. Fear can easily become our greatest enemy distracting us from our Savior, our true source of help and peace, or fear can draw us to Him! Hear how today's guest learned to confidently say, "Fear is my friend, helping me to clearly see my Savior."

"Home Is Where the Heart Is", a feel-good phrase for sure, but a phrase that gives me food for thought. If home is where the heart is then I must ask, "Where is my heart?" the Bible says that out of the heart is the issues of life, therefore I must guard my heart. "From what", you ask? From anything or anyone that would seek to take the place of my Savior. Today, my guest Missy Shook, shares how God has taught her to find joy, safety and contentment in Christ alone. She shares how God's call to be a missionary to Thailand began lessons of trust, dependance and contentment in Christ.

Bonus Episode | Today, March the 8th, women across the world will recognize International Women's Day. A day largely devoted to promoting women's rights and equality. I am thankful for the right to vote, respect for women in the workplace and the ability to be heard. But I'm also careful to recognize that lies can be wrapped in truth and what some see as good intentions to bring about change can easily lead to great sin when not grounded in the truth of God's Word. As a born-again Christian woman, I choose to celebrate today who I am in Christ: A daughter of the King, a City set on a hill, a Voice for My Savior, A Help-Meet, A Mother, Daughter, Sister and Friend. I am seen, known and loved by the One who most matters.

In Today's episode, "Yet Not I But Christ: The Phenomenal Stories of Fanny Crosby and the Little Servant Girl", my guest, Wendy Burks, shares the stories of two women who's lives said, "Not I, but Christ." Two women who's influence still reaches us today - the influence of the Gospel, and that, my friend, is a legacy of womanhood worth celebrating!

My guest, Tara Beil, shares how God met her in the hard place of waiting and about the lessons learned during this time that she now deems most valuable. Tara refers to this season of waiting as a "pressure cooker" of life that brought truth to the surface. It was while in this waiting room that she also found herself in the company of anxiety and depression. Anxiety disorders are the most common of mental illnesses that affect more than 40 million adults in America today, and of those adults, up to half suffer also from depression. My guest shares how she found hope and help in the Word of God and people God.

On today's episode, "Loving and Learning: Celebrating 58 Years of Marriage," you'll hear the story of how a marriage can be both faithful and fruitful. Marriage can far exceed our limited expectations even in a world full of heartbreak, rising divorce and often unclear pictures of God's plan for marriage. My guests have a marriage that shines brightly and not because of two perfect people who said "I do", but because of two people who daily recognize how much they need God's help.

Available today on the Friend to Friend Podcast: Episode 14, Allowing Your Past to Strengthen Your Future. Home. A word that for many provokes thoughts of peace, comfort and love. An institution created by God and for God to be seen in our relationships with one another. And yet we know that since the first home in Adam's Garden, sin wreaked havoc and heartache that only continues to perpetuate today. And yet Christ came and will come again, reminding us that the hope of our futures do not lie in an upbringing untouched by hurt or sin. Our hope lies in Christ and in his ability to redeem and restore sinners.

Join me as my guest, Lara Harrison, shares how her past, touched by an alcoholic father and divorce, affected her relationship with God and how God met her in the hard places of bitterness and jealousy. We discuss how her broken home as a child both hindered and helped her desire to have a home of her own and how God has used brokenness to strengthen her marriage and home for the better, today.
