Author Ronda Barney of 'Dear Susan' shares about how God brought her comfort during a heart-shattering health diagnosis and how she used it for good to deliver hope and encouragement for women facing a life-changing illness. It all began with writing letters, as if it were addressed to a dear friend walking through the same pain and suffering Ronda experienced. The Lord prompted Ronda to introduce each letter with the name Susan. Little did she know just a few years later, God would introduce her to the real Susan who needed those divine letters of hope. This is one of those conversations that will fill you with purpose that we are not on this earth for ourselves and how God exchanges our sorrow for His comfort, peace, and joy. This story made my heart glad as I saw one woman faithfully infuse the light of His hope and sustenance for others darkest days. RondaBarney.com Dear Susan Book

Podcaster of "Love Where You Are" Somer Colbert talks about when we've been hurt, rejected, and forgotten inside the four walls of church. Somer shares on how to heal when we've experienced mistreatment from believers and gain a biblical perspective to not let unforgiveness hold us back from doing the work God has set before us. One of the points she talks about is the danger of when church becomes tribalism. It's not about being loyal to a tribe, it's about serving and worshipping the Lord and treating others based on what scripture says. Somer says, "If being hurt by the church causes you to lose faith in God then your faith was in people not God." This is so true and there are many that have been wounded in the church, but God never wants us to stay in that place. He desires us to look to Him to make our heart whole again and know this is an attempt by the enemy to destroy unity among God's people. https://www.instagram.com/somercolbert/ https://somercolbert.com/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/ahavahcommunitygroup
