Spill the Beans LIVE with Laura Story at Fresh Grounded Faith Houston, TX [Episode 252]

Spill Beans Houston Texas Laura Story Michael O'Brien

It’s that time again! We’re spilling the beans in Houston, Texas with Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter Laura Story and former lead singer of Newsong, Michael O’Brien. This Q&A time at any Fresh Grounded Faith event is unscripted, unrehearsed, and unlike anything you’ll experience at other women’s conferences!

Today, we’re talking about if it’s okay to not be joyful during trials, what it means to fear the Lord but not be fearful of Him, and how to forgive someone but not allow them to hurt you in the future.

The City of Sisterly Love – FGF Highlights, Philadelphia, PA

Philadelphia may be the “City of Brotherly Love,” but we were definitely in the city of sisterly love this past weekend. Such gracious and loving women with servant’s hearts—that’s how I would describe the volunteers at Fresh Grounded Faith Philadelphia.
