Abundant Life

Some grief is carried quietly for years.

If abortion is part of your story, please hear this: you are not beyond grace, healing, or hope. 💛

Your pain deserves compassion. Your story deserves to be heard. And you do not have to walk through healing alone.

There is forgiveness in Jesus. There is hope ahead. There is a community ready to walk with you.

You are deeply loved.

“Have you ever felt totally lost in guiding teens through the dating culture today? It changes quickly, is vast, and sometimes can even be hard to navigate from the outside, let alone when you’re in it. Let’s chat about some dating do’s and don’ts that can keep everyone safe, and how we can honor God through the process.”

This month’s podcast features a chat with Sammie’s friend, Janelle, who is on Young Life staff, about faithfulness in ministry & what it looks like to dive into the hard stuff with students. An important conversation for all who feel called to lean in and lead, but might feel ill-equipped… my prayer is that Janelle’s bold “yeses” in her own life would be an encouragement to you to step out in faith! God wants to use each and every one of us to change lives - for our good and for His glory. 🖤

Emma Waters’ new book, Lead Like Jael, asks the question: What if the pursuit of “having it all” is costing women the very things they were made to love?

An important question that every woman needs to dive into. Thank you, Emma, for pouring your wisdom out onto paper - I encourage you guys - seriously, get your pens and some paper out while you listen. Take notes. Ponder. And then, go grab a copy of Emma’s new book (linked in the shownotes to make it easy for ya😉).
