“We don’t have to fear.  We can come under the umbrella of God who says, ‘Take Me with you in this.’”  What a gift to know God is always with us! Today Stacy sits down with author, speaker and Bible teacher Luanne Botta to talk about spiritual warfare.  Let your heart be filled with courage as Luanne points us to victory, the victory that has already been won by Jesus.   ABOUT OUR GUEST: Luanne Botta is an author, Bible teacher and speaker who brings the gospel to life through the Word and personal testimony.  Her high energy and joyful spirit of encouragement bring an authentic transparency, making her an endearing and powerful speaker. As a high school teacher at a private Christian academy for almost 20 years, Luanne found herself in a unique role, guiding hundreds of young people through God’s Word with her uncompromising, take-no-prisoners way of speaking the truth while still showing them unconditional love. Her passion was igniting them to live their lives with a higher standard than the culture around them. From these years of ministry and the heartache experienced by her students in their teen years, Luanne authored two books to equip young people with the truth, Young Hearts. Pure Lives (for girls),and The Warrior Within (for guys). Her newest release, Spiritual Warfare and the Armor of God, is available now.   SCRIPTURES: (NIV unless noted) You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
