Head to Heart
by Jenny Marcum
Head to Heart podcast is a bi-weekly podcast designed to be a safe space to admit what we truly believe in our hearts. There's a huge difference between just having Biblical knowledge floating around in our heads & actually believing that it’s true. There is a mix of solo episodes & interviews with friends who have experienced the freedom that comes when head knowledge becomes heart knowledge. No topic is off limits - you can overcome any lie or struggle through Christ and a community who loves Him.
