    My daughters told me about this pod cast and l just love it! I love Amy & Rachel and the beautiful connection they have with each other and with Jesus. They have made me laugh so much l have choked on my cup of tea! And they have made me cry as they so beautifully opened up scripture in new ways. If you ever read this Rach and Amy be encouraged because you both have such an incredible gift of speaking and thank you for sharing it with us. Bless you. Sara
