Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.I am talking with Betty Hicks who has been keeping a home with husband Dan for 37 years. Betty is a mom, a grandmother, a retired military analyst, a breast cancer survivor and a published author. She and Dan started their married life making a home in Germany, just before the end of the cold war. The most dramatic change came when both she and Dan had separate encounters with Jesus and began to follow and obey him in every aspect of life. We will hear all about that and more in Betty’s story of home.EPISODE NOTESJan Karon's Mitford Books, a favorite of Betty's and mine!
