Wow, it's the end of the year already. This was a big year for us and so we decided to reflect back on 2021. This is our last podcast of 2021, we are going to be taking two weeks off. Be sure and check back in with us in January, you are not going to want to miss it. We have some great news to share with all of you.
We catch you up on what's been saving our lives and what we have been reading. I finally finished a book I was actually reading. We talk about decisions and goals from this last year. We look back on how a confident yes can have great impacts in our lives but also listening to His voice and understanding that He has called us to this. We know that it won’t always be easy but that He will give us what we need.
