  • Glimpses Of Grace

    Send us a Text Message and let us know what you think!

    This week's guest is Lauren Petersen. Lauren is a wife and mother of 4, including twin boys. She is a pediatric speech pathologist. Lauren's journey to motherhood has not been an easy one; she experienced medical issues herself and difficult pregnancies and births. As she shares openly, you will hear her honest questions to the Lord and see glimpses of grace that held her steady. She truly has a remarkable testimony.

    This is a special one, friend. If you know of someone who has experienced infertility, miscarriage, or other pregnancy difficulties, please invite them to listen.

    We pray you are encouraged by Lauren's story and the grace and faithfulness of our Father on display.

    Thank you for joining us at the table today!!
