The Back Porch

This week me and Darwin chat about how the coronavirus is affecting us and how to stay positive amidst all of the unknown. Perspective is everything. Tune in to be encouraged in this challenging time!

Michaela is one of my close friends. She asked me to come onto the podcast to share her story about how God is restoring her marriage. The enemy attacks HARD when we are living for the Lord. She admits to falling for his lies, and potentially ruining her marriage. BUT GOD. God is working on their hearts and moving in their relationship.

My husband shares his story today of growing up in Uruguay and how through a lot of adversity, God always provided and redeemed his dreams.

Jen Reeb has an intense yet amazing story. She has just been through the hardest month of her life and she wanted to share it on here. Y'all, she will say it herself, she doesn't know why God saved her life a month ago while in surgery after giving birth to her fourth child. Why title is this way? A baby is a new life, Jen could have died, but she's a walking miracle. You DO NOT want to miss this story. To God be the glory.

This conversation was special. I met Kathryn on Instagram and I'm so glad she said yes to sharing her incredible story. If you have gone through postpartum depression, this will be a very encouraging episode for you to listen to. Her story illuminates God's constant light and power.

Blake is a solid person I am so excited for you all to get to know. She loves Jesus, encourages Christian women in every way, and is an Enneagram 8(just like me!)

Tori Petersen is our guest this week! She has an incredible story of walking through foster care from age 13 to 18. She shares stories of what she emotionally, mentally, and physically went through. Some are disheartening but then her story of coming out on the other end of it is so encouraging. God was there through all of her ups and downs as she grew up in a broken system. I know you are going to enjoy the episode and it will also give you a sense of the realities kids are going through today. We do share some laughs and a silly realization of how close we actually live to one another! Also we both love the enneagram and @anniefdowns. So there's that.
