In this heartfelt episode, Leslie opens up about her mother’s legacy of faith and the powerful lessons she discovered while reading through her journals and Bibles after her passing.
Life’s trials can shake us to our core, but they can also become sacred training grounds for the future God has planned for us. Through personal reflection and her mother’s timeless wisdom, Leslie reminds us that:
- Adversity is one of God’s most effective tools for strengthening our faith.
- When God allows adversity, it’s never to hurt us, but to help us.
- We are never alone—He promises to never leave or forsake us.
