Hey, friend.

In today’s episode, you’ll hear how God sustained the biblical character Joseph, as he prepared himself for the role of stepparent to Yeshua Jesus, the Savior of the World. I think you’ll agree with me by the end that God couldn’t have chosen better when He chose Joseph for this crucial and influential role in the life of His only begotten Son.

If you want to love digging into the Bible instead of finding it intimidating, unapproachable, and maybe even unbelievable, you’re in the right place. I’ve been where you are. There have been plenty of times where I’ve questioned if God cared at all about what I was going through or if He’d even thought up a plan for my life. When I got up the guts to tell him to His face, I found that He had very broad shoulders and that He could take anything I could dish out. It can be the same for you, too.

May you witness God’s power in your own life today, my friend.

Always, Anna

Hey, friend.

In today’s episode, you’ll hear how God showed up in the lives of biblical characters Zechariah and Elizabeth. The miracle was years in the making but revealed by God’s messenger angel Gabriel.

Like you may have heard me say before, if you want to love digging into the Bible instead of finding it intimidating, unapproachable, and maybe even unbelievable, you’re in the right place. I’ve been where you are. There have been plenty of times where I’ve questioned if God cared at all about what I was going through or if He’d even thought up a plan for my life. When I got up the guts to tell him to His face, I found that He had very broad shoulders and that He could take anything I could dish out. It can be the same for you, too.

May you witness God’s power in your own life today, my friend.

Always, Anna

Hey, friend.

God can speak to you in a myriad of ways. Learn to tune your ear so that you can recognize His voice when you hear it.

In today’s episode, you’ll hear about a time that God completely changed the trajectory of my life through His still, small voice.

May you find a way to hear directly from God today.

Always, Anna

Hey, friend.

Each of us has a story of God’s hand—God’s providence—in our lives. What’s yours?

In today’s episode, you’ll hear how God showed up in the life of the former President of the United States. We experienced it in a split second, and our minds reeled. But was God at all surprised by it?

May you witness God’s providence…His love…His power in your own life today.

Always, Anna
