Does someone in your family have a chronic illness? Could you use a perspective shift towards grace when it comes to your children?
I was so happy to hear from my guest today because she has practical ways to get in the bible no matter what your spiritual maturity and that was just the motivation I needed. She shares with us her wisdom on the subject of grace and her family’s journey navigating Crohn’s disease.
