No Weapon Shall Prosper
We are on a mission to tell God's stories in our lives and the lives of those around us. We are talking about how God takes what the enemy means for evil and turns it around to use for our good and His glory. We love the ability to encourage others and to talk about Jesus! Isaiah 54:17 says, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper.” God is in the business of redemption and hope. He can truly heal our hurts and make beauty from ashes.

We have some monthly costs involved in running and maintaining this podcast, as well as a lot of time that goes into making it. Would you ask the Lord if he is calling you to be part of our mission by supporting us financially?
