SENIOR MOMENTS (with God): Women's Stories about Aging with God
As we women age, we often lose our stories. No one seems to want to hear our journey, and old age can be a time of isolation. This podcast does not accept that status. Instead, this podcast CELEBRATES the stories of women who have walked with God through good times and bad. We each have a story to tell to glorify our Creator. By doing so, I hope to encourage every woman, old or young, seasoned or young, to realize how much God loves you and wants to walk this journey with you.
