God uses simple encounters to reach the lost. With God as her source of wisdom and strength, Lydia, mother of 9, has responded to God's call to boldly share her faith and spread the Gospel. She has proven that moms can live on mission and serve others needs amid a busy life. I think you will be encouraged.

How do you choose your children's names? It's fascinating how our names are chosen and how they often line up with our character and who we are meant to be. Megan's story covers several stages of motherhood from just finding out she was expecting, experiencing pregnancy loss and then celebrating the birth of her children and their unique personalities. As you follow her story, you will see an ever faithful and present God who leads Megan and her husband each step of the way.
