Corissa E ,

Thank you!

Thank you for a podcast that helps us parents share the goodness of God with our daughters in a way they can relate to. This podcast is a glimmer of light in a world that just seems to be getting darker.

MichelleRivera ,

I am so grateful for this podcast! We moms, NEEDED THIS 👏🏻

My daughter is 11. She’s starting to ask the BIG questions & having grown up without God, it helps so much to look to my Bible, my pastors and a podcast like this. I want to hear what other moms who are walking with God want to know! Thank you for helping us raise Godly Girls 🩷 in a world that doesn’t value them. Looking forward to more episodes 🙌🏻🙏🏻💓
