Where I begin to unpack the truth of messy souls and how our honest journeys with God amidst the mess leads to deeper, stronger and more resilient faith. I had a lot to share in this area so I am going to be following this up with a Part 2 in my next episode. Hope you listen in!

In this episode I share my journey of running but more what it is to remember what must be remembered and focus on the truly important. With a focus on Memorial Day but also remembering those who have lived well and are no longer on this earth 🌏, I share things we can all do to remember well. 1 - We Remember 2 - We practice thankfulness 3 - We Live 4 - We Remember the Ultimate Sacrifice. It was a challenging episode to me and I hope it challenges you too in the best of ways… To learn more about me, visit my website www.abigailalleman.com with many links to what I offer online and things I have written over 13 years.
