   Episode 16: Hearing in Heartache Pt. 1

   Disclaimer: parents, while we LOVE that you are listening with your kids, we want to give a quick caution that today's episode includes some very heavy content. We recommend listening first so that you can decide whether your child is ready for the topics and so that you can be prepared for any conversations that may come if you should choose to have them listen in. In this first episode of a two-part series, the sisters delve into the question, "How does God speak to us in the midst of deep grief, extreme hardship, and heartache?" Tricia shares her story of walking through three miscarriages and how the Lord spoke to her and showed His presence and love during some of her darkest moments.

They give practical ideas and tools to help listeners practice and develop an all-day awareness of the presence of God.
