65, Thank God for Jesus Christ

Thank God for Jesus Christ. Those were Deborah Ann Mays' last words. Her daughter, Andrea Powell, will never forget hearing her mother speak those words. Andrea shares those memories with us, along with the everlasting impression that Deborah Ann left on the earth and those that knew her.

Andrea grew up being the only girl amongst her brothers, so the bond between mother and daughter was close. Andrea's parents never divorced, but eventually her father left their family after years of adversity. Andrea shares about Edward, also known as "Black Rambo" in the neighborhood. Andrea discusses life with her dad, along with the lessons she learned from him. And we can't forget the ever important saying from grandfather JP!

Andrea is a leader in her church, and enjoys using her spare time to hold a Prayer Boot Camp for those interested in increasing their praying habits. Andrea has also written a daily devotional and is the host of her own podcast, We Are Not So Different.
