  • Binge worthy

    I’ve been a widow coming up on one year. My sweet husband died on August 1, 2023, when he had a heart attack during a heart cath. This podcast is the first one of the several I’ve subscribed to that ministers to us without a real agenda of selling books or programs. Thank you, Michelle and Mark, for your authenticity and raw honesty. I’m still catching up on all the episodes, but I’ve gained some sort of insight from every episode.
