Comforted by God
An Honest Heart
Sep 16th

WALKING ALONE?
May 31st
ARE YOU A GOOD PERSON? Many people wrestle with that question, imagining that if they only follow a certain set of rules they have made it into heaven. However, my guest author, Sunny McMurry, realized “good” doesn’t cut it when compared to a holy God. I know many women can relate to Sunny’s story of faith unveiled when confronted with the truth of the Bible.
