In this important episode of Family Vision, Rob Rienow of Visionary Family Ministries is joined by special guest Anna Meade Harris, author of the new book, God's Grace for Every Family. They delve into the profound challenges (and unexpected blessings) of single parenting.
Anna shares her journey from being happily married with three sons to suddenly becoming a widow after her husband's cancer diagnosis. She discusses the unique ways each of her children grieved and the unexpected difficulties that arose in their family dynamics. Anna shares how she experienced God's mercy, grace, and power as well as the essential role that her church and supportive friends played in helping her navigate this new chapter of life.
Anna reflects on specific Bible passages that brought her comfort and strength, particularly Psalm 126, and how journaling and prayer became vital tools in her spiritual journey.
Listeners will find inspiration and hope in Anna's story, learning that God's grace is sufficient even in the most challenging circumstances. The episode also offers valuable resources for single parents, including Anna's book and a free four-part video Bible study from Visionary Family Ministries.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
