But we can stand strong, confident, and courageous, no matter our circumstances, because our world is held by a God who loves us, sees us, is with us, and reigns over all. While life might feel uncertain, in truth it’s not, because God always retains full control. In this episode, author and speaker Jennifer Slattery shares tips and truths able to anchor our souls in hope and faith.
