#3 Amy Orrs, Broken But Beloved

"Broken but Beloved" is the theme of today's fellowship with Amy Orrs. Join host Thomas Proffitt as Amy discusses her transformation through Christ, the discipline of abiding in the Word, and the beauty of being chosen by God. Amy opens up about her struggles with self-worth and weight, explaining how she learned to fill the voids in her life with God rather than the world. Whether you are in a season of waiting or a season of "wartime," this episode offers the encouragement you need to step out in faith and recognize that you are never too broken for God’s love.
