ACCFS was a lifeline at the most difficult season of my life! I have listened and learned from almost every podcast on ACCFS! It’s been 3 years and 8 months since I lost my husband and your podcasts, based on wisdom from God’s Word, have provided the encouragement I’ve needed to “grieve well and go forward with hope”! Thanks for inspiring us to anchor into God’s promises and trust He will continue to be faithful because He has a plan for us beyond our own plans!
