It's normal for us to struggle with loving God with our whole heart, soul, and mind — but what if the secret to loving Him fully lies in understanding what “all” really means? In this episode, Stacey unpacks Matthew 22:37 and reveal how Jesus' call to love God with everything we are is both our greatest challenge and the key to true freedom.

Join us as we dive into scripture, share personal stories, and uncover how God's love empowers us to love Him back with everything we’ve got. It’s not just a command — it’s the love story of your life.

Welcome to season 4 of The Haven Women Podcast!

Our focus for Haven Women this year is to "Love God, Love People."

Love God with everything, love others as yourself.

Elizabeth's story from Luke chapter 1 is inspiring. She was barren yet believing, marked by divine timing, and shows us that nothing is impossible with God.
