Awful Okay Awesome

by Marta Sauret Greca

If heartfelt, difficult stories turned into triumph bring tears to your eyes and invigorate all the feels for you, this is the show to listen to. I'm like you - my favorite books to read and movies to watch are true stories of incredibly difficult times that turned into God-driven missions, and actually were God-driven missions the ENTIRE time. Sometimes God nudges us to go a certain direction, and sometimes, he completely redirects you entirely through the most mystical journeys. THAT is what this show is about! This show is brought to you by Black Aswad Coffee Co., the brand that’s redefining your morning ritual with rich, bold flavors and a commitment to mental wellness. If you’re looking for a coffee that fuels both body and mind, Black Aswad is your go-to. Learn more at www.blackaswadcoffeeco.com and use code AWESOME15 for an exclusive deal!
