This is exactly the time we need to declare prophetic promises over ourselves, our families, and our businesses. We speak and the natural shifts! 

God's words and His promises are unthwarted by the temporal circumstances of today, even the reality of a global pandemic. Now is the time to pray boldly into the promises God has given you.

She shares about how kindness illuminates the dark and is, in fact, a part of our spiritual inheritance. Listen in and be encouraged!

** "Life is too short not to leap" - Nick ** There are so many things I love about this episode with Nick &Steph Bradac. They are a couple of faith-filled, people-gathering, coffee-loving Christians who are going all-in on a dream from Jesus and you WANT to hear their story! Nick quit his very successful career and took a "leap" with his wife Stephanie to launch a coffee food truck in their small midwestern town. It's become a beloved meet-up spot for locals to connect and share life and it's really just the beginning of their dream! They have 4 boys and, as a family, are committed to taking courageous leaps and loving people in big and practical ways. Grab a cup of joe and enjoy!
