”Trusting God With the Pieces of Life” With Lauren Fortenberry

"One of the hardest parts of faith is learning to trust God with the pieces of life when there is no peace." — Lauren Fortenberry

When life's stresses and storms happen, it's easy to give up hope. In today's episode, Lauren Fortenberry shares about walking through her own storm a few years ago — losing her father to cancer. On the verge of giving up hope, Lauren challenged herself to go back to the basics of talking to God through prayer ... one day (and sometimes one sentence) at a time. If you find your life in pieces today, we hope this episode encourages you to hold on to the hope you can find through prayer and God's Word.
