Today we are diving into The Grateful Gap, the space you feel when being thankful is hard and life feels heavier than you expected. This episode will encourage you, challenge you, and inspire you to notice the small places where gratitude still shows up.

Meet this weeks guest, Nichole Dunas. She’s a wife, a soon to be mom, and she recently celebrated two years of marriage to her sweet husband Paul. Nichole has such a steady, genuine love for Jesus. Her heart beats for helping people love well, live holy, stand for truth, and grow a faith that holds up even in the hard places.

God has opened doors for her to share this message online, in person, and even overseas. She counts every moment as joy. And at the center of it all, her hope is that people would be so transformed by the Gospel that they feel led to share the greatest gift of all. Jesus Himself. This conversation uplifted me, encouraged my heart, and reminded me of the power of honest community. I know it will do the same for you.
