Stories from South Place
by Jessica Morales
There’s a quote that says: “the most extraordinary thing in the world is an ordinary man and an ordinary woman and their ordinary children.” Stories from South Place will highlight the beauty of this sentiment because that’s exactly what host, Jessica Morales, wants to do — highlight all of the ordinary because it is truly extraordinary. Each one of us has a unique, special, God-given story and it’s a joy to be able to share it. Welcome to the Morales home, nicknamed the "South Place." We hope you'll feel like you're sitting in our living room, enjoying great stories from a new friend. Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jessica-morales3/support
