April 15, 2024 Who Are You?
Have you ever downplayed something about yourself that’s actually really great? Maybe an accomplishment or skill or a character trait? Rebecca Cooper (author of SIX books!) was guilty of doing precisely that about her writing—until our good friend Brea Schmidt looked her in the eye and called her out.
It’s something we often do as women, isn’t it? We struggle to believe in ourselves when the only thing standing in the way of our confidence…is us.
Rebecca tells us how that conversation with Brea changed her—and why naming your God-given talents and sharing them with the world matters.

April 08, 2024 This is Not What I Prayed for
Trigger warning: Death of a child
Six-year-old Joey was dying. Kathy Glow knew the cancer growing inside her beloved son’s body would, eventually, take his life, but she didn’t expect it to ravage her faithful heart. She believed in God, in the power of prayer and the fullness of His love—but she was angry. If Jesus heals, why wasn’t He healing her child?
It would take years for the answer to settle into her fractured heart and mend the cracks of grief. But time brought understanding—and an honest, vulnerable faith that shows us how following Jesus can be beautiful, even in the broken.

April 01, 2024 When God Answers Unspoken Prayers
God’s miracles aren’t always grand and flashy—sometimes they’re as simple as a bag of hand-me-down clothes from another mother. That’s what Victoria Riollano learned when she was a young mother with growing boys and a bank account that struggled to stretch far enough for ankles or answers.
But as Victoria learned, God provides—and He often nudges others to be part of the story. She recalls that sweet moment of grace and gratitude with us today.

March 04, 2024 Nightmare at Sea: A Mother’s Fight for Life
It was supposed to be a fun-filled family cruise for Charissa Bates and her family. But just a couple of days into the excursion, Charissa’s mom landed in the ship’s sick ward with terrifying, life-threatening symptoms. The hours that followed were filled with waiting and worrying as the family fought to get back on U.S. soil to save her life.
Then a chance encounter with a pastor and a whisper from above breathed peace and comfort into Charissa’s heart as her mother lay in a coma. It’s a harrowing story, but we think you’ll agree it’s also filled with hope.

“Go with him.” Lisa Appelo heard the whisper as she lay in bed consumed by all the things on her to-do list. She was a busy mom of seven, but her husband, Dan, wanted her to join him on a work trip—a trip she couldn’t see how to make happen. But when God nudged her to go, the three days that followed proved to be irreplaceable in ways she could never have imagined.
We talk with Lisa about how life changed after those three days, about heart-shattering grief as a wife and a mother, and about how God speaks to His beloved children and gives us hope even in heartbreak.
