Show Notes

Jessica Cabrera hosts Amy Zacaroli. Amy was raised in a Lutheran household, felt a spiritual connection from a young age but struggled with understanding her faith. Her life took a transformative turn when she participated in a Bible study, leading to a deeper understanding of her faith and a personal relationship with God. Amy recounts a pivotal moment in her daughter's bedroom where she heard God's audible voice, confirming her role as a mother. She emphasizes God's personal presence and the importance of seeking Him.

There is an article in Jessica's Engage Faith Column that will help you understand who He is, who you are, what choice you have, and what happens when you make the decision.

The importance of a Biblical faith community:

All listeners are encouraged to engage in a local church community to learn more about Jesus, the Bible, and to experience God through community.
