Ruthie! Thank you! We met last year at the Communicator’s Collective Retreat in Myrtle Beach. I was so depleted and looking for encouragement in this season. You were such a picture of grace for me. Your podcast is the timely reminder that in all that is going on in my life I still need to set priorities and it’s ok not to move at the whim of every pressing need from Every generation but continue to trust God to direct my steps. Blessings to you! Thank you! Joni Rosebrock
