*Just a reminder, we're back after a long summer sabbatical full of changes, including moving a couple of our kids to college and one of our families moving out of Alaska (listen to the intro to episode 314 for more details)!

The episodes you'll be hearing over the next several weeks were recorded in the spring, so some of the references might be outdated but the messages are all extremely relevant. Enjoy!*

This week's guest on the podcast is no stranger to brokenness, but her ministry hinges on finding beauty not only in spite of it, but within the broken places of life.

Crystal Anderson writes at The Mom Blog, and in 2023 released a children's book called And Then There Were Five, based on the true story of the adoption of their son John Rudy, who was called to heaven at the age of 25.

Join us for an uplifting discussion about looking for God's hand in the hard things as Crystal shares her own story, and that of her son John Rudy.

You can connect with Crystal and find out more about her blog and book at CrystalAnderson.net.
