Be drawn to Jesus
I need every ounce of reminder from God through these times what His truths are and His unconditional love for us means. Thank you for being a conduit for Him. God bless all that hear.
Beautiful, Encouraging, Inspired, Life Changing
Shawn builds a short meditation around a verse from the Bible - sometimes revealing unexpected meaning by relating the passage from a perspective that I may not have thought of before. There is a surprising amount of inspiration packed into 3-4 minutes. I love this podcast and I hope they continue to produce them. They post new casts every weekday.
