Revive Our Hearts

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth says it is easy to praise God when he answers our prayers the way we think he should.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But you have no guarantee that the burden you are carrying right now, the tribulation you are going through, will be solved in the ways that you hope it will.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But what you do have is a guarantee that heaven rules and that God does all things well.

Danna Grash: This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast with Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, author of Heaven Rules. For May 15th, 2026. I am Danna Grash.

Danna Grash: We are encouraging everyone to read through the Bible this year. If you are following the Revive Our Hearts reading plan, there are ways to receive daily encouragement along the way, to submit comments and to read the comments of people from all over the world who are reading the same passages you are.

Danna Grash: All the information is available at reviveourhearts.com/bible2026. You might be thinking, it is the middle of the year, I cannot join now. That would not be true. In fact, the summer would be a great time for you to push reset on your Bible reading habits and to just jump right on in with us where we are.

Danna Grash: Again, you can sign up at reviveourhearts.com/bible2026.

Danna Grash: Do you ever look at the world we are living in and get depressed or discouraged?

Danna Grash: I mean, it can seem like we have slipped back into the days of the judges, with people everywhere doing what is right in their own eyes. Maybe you are facing a severe trial that is draining you of energy and tempting you to give up on God.

Danna Grash: You need hope in the midst of the hard.

Danna Grash: God has a word for you. It is in the life of what we might call an unhero.

Danna Grash: Here is Nancy to explain. She is teaching in Judges chapter 6.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Verse 11 of chapter 6. The angel of the Lord came and he sat under the oak that was in Ophra, which belonged to Joash, the Abiezrite. This was a man from a town that was in the tribe of Manasseh.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: His son Gideon was threshing wheat in the winepress in order to hide it from the Midianites.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Verse 12, then the angel of the Lord appeared to him and said to this terrified man, "The Lord is with you, valiant warrior."

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: This is laughable, because Gideon was anything but a valiant warrior.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Here he is fearful and timid, hiding, trying to thresh wheat down in a winepress, which is not going to be very effective.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But he is promised by the angel of the Lord that the Lord would be with him. That the Lord would work in him and through him and would make him into a bold, courageous man who would deliver God's people from their oppression.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Well, verse 14, the Lord turned to him and said, "Go in the strength you have."

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Little itty bitty strength, or big strength that God is giving you. Go in the strength you have and deliver Israel from the grasp of Midian. I am sending you.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Now, Gideon's first assignment did not begin out on a battlefield, but it began at home.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Because his father had an altar to Baal and a pole that had been used in the worship of Baal's female consort Asherah.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: The Lord told him to tear down the altar, to cut down the pole, and to build an altar to the Lord in their place.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And Gideon did what the Lord had told him to do, but notice he did it at night because he was fearful of his family and of the men of the city.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Well, in verse 33, we see this coalition of Midianites and Amalekites and others that gathered together, the enemies of God's people. They crossed over Jordan, and they camped out in a place called the Valley of Jezreel.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: This is in northern Israel, in some other places in Scripture it is called the Valley of Megiddo. And it is where scholars believe that the battle of Armageddon will take place in the last days before Jesus comes to reign and rule over this earth.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: It is a site of numerous battles. And so this massive coalition of God's enemies, Midianites, Amalekites, others, they come and they gather together in this Valley of Jezreel.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Look at verse 34 of chapter 6. The Spirit of the Lord enveloped Gideon.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Now it is said of four judges in this book that the Spirit of the Lord came upon them.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But the word here is a little different. Literally, it means clothed. One translation says, "The Spirit of the Lord covered Gideon like clothing."

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: As I read that, I think, "Oh Lord, I want to be clothed with your spirit. I want to be covered with your spirit. I want to be empowered for service by your Holy Spirit filling me, resting upon me, clothing me with yourself."

Danna Grash: You are getting a sneak peek at an upcoming program for the Wonder of the Word project where Nancy will teach through the whole Bible.

Danna Grash: She will have more to say about Gideon and other characters in the book of Judges when she covers it next year. Just think about it.

Danna Grash: Gideon was not exactly a picture of bravery and courage, but the Lord graciously and patiently kept helping him in his journey of learning to trust him.

Danna Grash: A little later in that same program on Gideon, Nancy went on to say this.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: So we come to the next paragraph, and God gives Gideon one further bit of reassurance before he goes into the battle.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: The Lord sent Gideon down into the Midianite camp at night. That is where he overheard a man, one of the Midianite men, telling a buddy about a dream. Look at verse 13 of chapter 7.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: "A loaf of barley bread came tumbling into the Midianite camp in the stream, struck a tent and it fell." This is a big loaf of bread. "The loaf turned the tent upside down so that it collapsed."

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: That was the dream. His friend, his buddy answered, "This is nothing less than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, the Israelite."

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: "God has handed the entire Midianite army over to him."

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: When Gideon heard the account of the dream and its interpretation, he bowed in worship.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: He returned to Israel's camp and said, "Get up, for the Lord has handed the Midianite army over to you."

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: There is going to be a victory in this battle, a massive victory.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But before there is a victory, there is going to be worship and faith.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: You see, we want to worship God and exercise faith in the rearview after the battle is done, and we have seen the outcome.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But here Gideon worships. He believes God, and he encourages God's people to believe him before they can see the outcome.

Danna Grash: I want you to hear now from a listener who heard Nancy's teaching as she was recording it.

Elizabeth: My name is Elizabeth, and I am going through a prolonged trial, and the part about Gideon and how he was kind of a coward.

Elizabeth: But there was, when the Spirit of the Lord enveloped him and how he worshipped before the victory. That spoke to me.

Elizabeth: I am asking God to increase my faith. But I still battle living like I do not have a king on the throne who will make things right.

Elizabeth: So I just want to like when you said, we want to believe God and worship after the victory. I very much am looking forward to the day when I will worship and see how God works for good.

Elizabeth: What is hard right now, but I want God to increase my faith to worship and believe it so that I can walk in more faith and joy in the midst.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Thank you.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And you know, worship and faith in those circumstances does not mean that we are assured that the situation is going to turn out as we hope it will. Or as it should.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: There is no guarantee that that mom I was just talking about that her husband is going to repent and return and he is doing everything to go against God in his word.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But here is what we do know. We have the promises of God. That is what Gideon saw down in that valley or heard when that dream was told and the interpretation. God let him hear that so he could get a glimpse that in the end it would be right.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And we have God's promises that in the end it will all be right and it will all be all right.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And so that is what we cling to. Sometimes with raw naked faith when we cannot see anything reassuring. We did not hear that dream that somebody else had that gives us the final answer.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: We do not know how the circumstances are going to end, or it may be that they end terribly. But that is not the end-end.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: What causes us to worship and believe is knowing that in the end God will be glorified. We will look back and we will say God's will was right.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: God was right, God was good. He protected me, he cared for me, he provided for me. My king has done all things well. We will not doubt that in the end.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: So, we are sitting on this side of that circumstance, and this side of that mountain, and we are saying, "I am going to choose to trust God now for that which I cannot currently see, but I know that in the end my king wins and it will be right."

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And that kind of praise, that kind anybody can praise and worship God and believe when they have seen the answer come.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: When it has all been fixed, or it is got a pretty bow on the picture and the problem and it has all been solved.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But you have no guarantee that the burden you are carrying right now, the tribulation you are going through, will be solved in the ways that you hope it will.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But what you do have is a guarantee that heaven rules and that God does all things well, and that you will look back in time and say, "Why did I not worship? Why did I not trust?"

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Now, I get all of us have times when we do not worship and we do not trust, but we are going to look back and none of us are going to say, "I should not have worshipped him so much" or "I should not have trusted God so much. He blew it." No, there is going to be none of that at the end.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: We are going to say, "You know what, God could have been trusted. He could be trusted to write my story. And I could have worshipped him then as I am now." So let us do it now and not just then.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: I think that is the lesson from Gideon's story.

Danna Grash: Encouraging words from Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth responding to a listener named Elizabeth. Gideon was a judge in ancient Israel at a time when evil was rampant, and the Israelites were suffering as a result of their own choices.

Danna Grash: Even the judges themselves were deeply flawed. Nancy has this reminder for us related to that, again, from the Book of Judges.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: This is a book about the absence of a king. There was no king in those days. And a series of judges who were a mixed bag. Some better than others, but many failures and faults and flaws in these judges.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And there are several things that we see in this book about human leaders that I have been pondering as I have been meditating on judges. Let me just read several of these sentences to you.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: First, God gives people rulers and leaders that reflect the condition of the people.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And remember that when you are tempted, as I often am, to complain about bad political or spiritual leaders.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: God gives us leaders who reflect the condition and the hearts of the people they serve.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Number two, the lack of good and wise leaders is an evidence of God's judgment on people who are bent on going their own way and sinning.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: God's judgment is not just that he comes and wipes us out. At some point there will be cataclysmic judgment on evildoers and evil in our world.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But sometimes that judgment is just God giving us bad leaders.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Here is a third statement. The lack of leaders who are grounded in truth leads to people living by their own truth.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Your truth, my truth, everyone has their truth, which inevitably leads to confusion, chaos, and ultimately anarchy.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Number four, God sometimes chooses and uses deeply flawed leaders as human instruments to accomplish his holy purposes.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: All leaders have weaknesses and faults and flaws. Remember that none of those leaders can save us, deliver us. Only God can do that.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Here is a fifth sentence. Even the best human rulers are a pale reflection of the righteous rule of Christ.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: So you have a good and godly husband, you have a good and godly pastor, but the best of human rulers are just a pale reflection of the righteous rule of Christ.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And then number six, the best and the worst of earthly leaders point to our need for King Jesus.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: The lack of righteous rulers that we see all around us and all around the world, the lack of righteous rulers reminds us that we need a King, capital K, and his name is Jesus.

Danna Grash: Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth with some commentary on the Book of Judges. A listener named Sheri heard Nancy say that, and here is what ministered to her.

Sheri: So much, Nancy, from the book of Judges. Thank you. I think as I was listening to it, you know, it is not pleasant and it is not easy, and unfortunately it is reality.

Sheri: For earth, which just brings us to Revelation, and you have been so faithful to paint such a realistic picture of humanity, but then always point us to the King of Kings and the righteous Judge.

Sheri: So I just looked up going to Revelation chapter 19. Then I saw heaven opened and behold a white horse, one sitting on it is called Faithful and True. And in righteousness, he judges and makes war.

Sheri: And that has comforted me for the last ten years since you walked us through a really difficult trial.

Sheri: And God has just been faithful to use your voice and his word to remind us that one day all things will be made right and that he is the one that can be trusted.

Sheri: And also that we can absolutely depend on fallen man to fall and to abuse and to harm, but he is never that way. So thank you for that.

Sheri: And just continue looking to the Lord and in perilous times. But the end of his story is not here, and we know the end of the story where he will win. So thank you for that.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Beautiful. Thank you and trust in his goodness when you cannot see it.

Danna Grash: We are listening to a few women share how the Holy Spirit spoke to them through the scriptures in a recent recording session where Nancy was talking about the Old Testament book of Judges. Let us hear from Sarah next.

Sarah: Hi, my name is Sarah, and one of the things I was thinking about when you talked about that cycle seven times, the disobedience and then the discipline, and then the desperation, and then the deliverance.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: I have seen it said with four different words starting with S: sin, servitude, supplication, and salvation.

Sarah: And after the deliverance, you would think they would have learned their lesson, and they would have been fine. But then right back into disobedience and discipline, and then how you pointed out how, you know, the generation that knew Joshua, and the generation after that had learned, but then it is like they forgot.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: We have been blessed by God, but we have forgotten God. That is how you could describe the era of the judges.

Sarah: But as I thought about the cycle, it almost made me angry to be like, after all that deliverance over and over and over, like, how could you be so ungrateful to go right back into disobedience to the God who had rescued you again and again and again?

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: So you are going to see this pattern, this cycle. You will see that the people turned from God, they followed after other gods, and then God turned his people over to their enemies, discipline, and then they groaned over their oppression out of desperation, and then God sent judges to deliver or to save them.

Sarah: Which again, just points the finger right back to myself that how can I, who has been delivered by a Savior, how can I ever go back into ever disobeying him?

Sarah: But it reminded me also of your book on gratitude, when you had an alliterated thing about guilt and grace and gratitude.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: We start with our guilt. We are guilty sinners before a holy God. All we deserve is God's judgment, his wrath. We are born sinners, we sin because we are sinners. We are born as rebels against God. We are guilty before God and we deserve his judgment and his wrath.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But instead of giving us his wrath, God has offered to us, extended to us, his grace, his favor. Because Christ was willing to take the payment, the penalty, the judgment, the wrath that we deserved for our sins.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: He took our guilt upon himself on the cross. So, instead of pouring out his judgment on us for our guilt, God has poured out his grace upon us.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: He has received us into his family as his children. He has bestowed upon us the righteousness of Christ. This is unbelievable grace.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: So when we realize that we are guilty, and instead of giving us the wrath we deserve, God has poured out his grace upon us, what is going to flow out from our hearts? It is going to be gratitude. Not grouchiness, but gratitude.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Lord, you have given me what I do not deserve. You have not given me what I do deserve. And of all people who should be grateful, it should be those of us who have received the grace of God.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And then what flows out of our gratitude is another G, generosity. Guilt plus grace results in gratitude, and grateful people, people who have been filled with the grace of God, become generous people.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Because they have been given so much, they have a lot to share. And they are happy and joyful to share with others, to be generous because God has been so generous with them.

Sarah: And I think that makes such a difference. The desperation reminded me of the guilt part. The deliverance and the grace. And instead of then going right back into disobedience, I think if we can focus on that next step of gratitude and keeping our eyes on the cross and on what he did for us, being grateful for that.

Sarah: And then teaching that to our kids and keep on pointing them to that cross. I think if we can keep our eyes on that deliverance and be grateful for it, I think it will help us be less likely to turn back into that path of disobedience.

Sarah: But to be continuing to live in obedience out of gratitude and love for the one who did so much to deliver us. So thank you for that reminder.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Thank you, Sarah. So sweet, so good.

Danna Grash: Sarah Booth has been a long time listener of Revive Our Hearts. She came a long way to listen to Nancy that day in the studio. Sarah and her husband are missionaries in Portugal. In fact, she shared some of her story with Nancy.

Sarah: It started with my mom, who listened to Elisabeth Elliot's program, Gateway to Joy. And she listened to it faithfully, and I remember one day I came home from college break, and she told me, "They have this new young person who has taken over a program, and now it is called Revive Our Hearts and it was you."

Robert Wolgemuth: Nancy, welcome to your own program.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Well, this is a very exciting day and the Lord has in so many ways been preparing all of us for this day.

Robert Wolgemuth: Let us go back to the beginning of that. You actually came to faith in Christ earlier than most, did you not?

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: I did, actually receiving Christ, trusting him as my Savior, is my first conscious memory.

Sarah: And she immediately was listening to your program as well. There had been quotes of Elisabeth Elliot on our refrigerator and other things, and then very soon books like Lies Women Believe and other things like that started to appear in our home, and so it really started with my mom being fed through your program over the years.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: We replace the lies with the truth. The truth is that God is good. He is good.

Sarah: After I finished college, I became a teacher, and thankfully, my job had me working at more than one school. And my lunch break where I had to drive from one school to the other was exactly at the moment that your program was on the radio.

Sarah: And so as I drove, I would hear the first half of your program in the car, and then I would sit in the car with my packed lunch and I would quick eat the rest of my lunch in the car while so I could hear the rest of your program.

Sarah: And so it was the year before I got married, and you helped me grow so much teaching on the Proverbs 31 woman and other things like that. And so I really, really grew just like my mom grew a lot through your program.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: When we think about being an excellent or a virtuous woman, a woman of great spiritual strength and character, there is a sense in which that is a past accomplishment because when we become a child of God, we are in Christ, and as God sees us, we are perfect.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: We have the righteousness of Christ. And there is a sense in which he has made us past tense. If we are children of God, he has made us already that excellent, virtuous person.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And the challenge here is to live like who you are, to live out the reality of who you are in Christ.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: But then there is a present ongoing sense that we are becoming this kind of woman. It is progressive. It is the outworking and the development of what God has already put in our hearts if we are children of God.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Cultivating who and what we are in Christ. And then, and this is what really encourages me, there is a yet future sense when it comes to being an excellent woman, a virtuous woman.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: And that is what we can look forward to. It is that final completed state where we are glorified, we are sanctified, we are perfect, we are mature. And as we are in process, we can look forward and know that God is making us into that kind of woman.

Sarah: When we moved to Portugal, I did not have a radio station where I could hear you, but thankfully through technology improving, eventually I was able to get a phone where I could start listening to your podcasts and that has helped me in a huge way as a wife and now a mother.

Sarah: And honestly, there are so many days of giving out to others that for you, I felt like you have been like a Sunday school teacher to me, or somebody who has been pouring into me as I try to pour into other people.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Do not underestimate the significance of your faithfulness to God in this season of life.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: You may think this, my life is obscure, it is not touching anybody. I am at home with these three little kids all day long, day in and day out. I am not touching anybody.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Anna may have thought that for years. My life is not touching anybody. Here is a widow alone. And yet her life is touching us today in God's providence. It has been preserved for us.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Your life will go on and bear fruit potentially for generations to come if you will be faithful to God in whatever season he has placed you now and in whatever seasons he has ahead for you.

Sarah: And so you have influenced three generations of my family. And now and my daughter, she is got her books. My she is doing some of the studies. My son got the Lies Boys Believe book this year for Christmas.

Sarah: And of all the toys that he had asked for and anything else, that book was his favorite gift that he got for Christmas. He came up and apologized, he is like, "Mom, I know I was supposed to read this little by little, but I read the whole thing in two days. I am sorry."

Sarah: Then he loves it. And so, like I said, three generations of my family you have influenced, and now the people that we are ministering to in Portugal are being influenced too.

Sarah: (Portuguese) Você quer saber mais sobre o amor de Cristo em sua vida? Now, so many of the resources are in Portuguese. And I am so thankful that you guys have done this because before I would try to take what I learned and explain it to the ladies, but to have now the podcast directly in their language, many of the books and resources in their language.

Sarah: I have had ladies in our church come up to me with tears in their eyes and just be like, "Oh Sarah, that podcast." And they are getting so blessed by these resources as well.

Sarah: (Portuguese) Jesus disse: Se você tem os meus mandamentos e os obedece, Eu me manifestarei a você, Eu me tornarei real para você.

Sarah: So just thank you so much for investing in all of us.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Wow, so precious. Thank you for sharing that. Did I hear that you are one of our Revive Partners? Is that fact or fiction?

Sarah: No, yeah, I am a partner too.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Well, tell us that and why you decided to become a partner.

Sarah: I do not know. I called in one time and to say how I felt like listening to your program. I felt like I was mooching off of you because it was free. And like, you know, if I had wanted to watch something on TV or Netflix or something, I would have had to pay for it.

Sarah: And I was like, I listen to this all the time. I have never once paid a penny for listening to this. And God just really convicted me one of the times you guys were mentioning the big need that you had financially.

Sarah: And I talked with my husband, and he agreed, and ever since then, we have been monthly partners because if we can pay for other stuff to watch on other streaming programs, you know, that is not worth anything, that is one thing.

Sarah: But this is spiritually impacting all of us. So it is definitely been worth investing in. So thank you.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Wow, thank you. How precious. And sweet that you would come all the way to be a part of our day and to let us meet you and to hear a little bit about your story. Just precious. Thank you for sharing that.

Danna Grash: It is so good to hear from one of our Revive Partners, who is also a missionary in Portugal. A Revive Partner is someone who commits to supporting Revive Our Hearts each month with your prayers and financial giving.

Danna Grash: And just a quick reminder to you, if you are a Revive Partner, next month we are hosting a special gathering for you. It is our way to say thank you for being a Revive Partner. You will be encouraged from God's Word, and you will hear more of what he is doing through Revive Our Hearts.

Danna Grash: That is in addition to the bonus Revive Our Hearts resources you have access to on an ongoing basis. We just want to say thank you so much for giving. There is more information about being a Revive Partner at reviveourhearts.com/partners.

Danna Grash: Even if you have only made a donation to Revive Our Hearts once or twice, you are helping us reach women like Sarah in Portugal and her mom since 2001. I love it that now three generations in Sarah's family have been impacted by Revive Our Hearts.

Danna Grash: So, thank you for praying. Thank you for giving. Your donation at this time is critical for helping us continue reaching women like Elizabeth, Sheri, and Sarah.

Danna Grash: We are asking the Lord to provide $1.4 million here in the month of May. Yes, that sounds like a lot, but if each listener gave just even a small amount, we would more than meet that goal.

Danna Grash: Maybe you identify with Sarah, who appreciated the spiritual nourishment she was getting so much that she felt like she wanted to chip in and give back. Friend, would you pray about how much the Lord might want you to give?

Danna Grash: Then contact us to make a donation. You can do that by calling 1-800-569-5959 or by heading to reviveourhearts.com.

Danna Grash: As a thank you, we will send you a copy of Called to Thrive, a new booklet from Nancy that is a personal guide to living in freedom, fullness, and fruitfulness in Christ.

Danna Grash: Request it when you make your donation of any amount. Again, it is 1-800-569-5959 or reviveourhearts.com.

Danna Grash: Today we have done our best to point you toward the hope we have in Jesus. Hope in the midst of hard.

Danna Grash: Next week, Nancy begins a series looking at what she calls indispensable ingredients for life and she will draw them from the Old Testament character Joshua.

Danna Grash: I hope you have a wonderful weekend and can be back on Monday for Revive Our Hearts.

Danna Grash: This program is a listener-supported production of Revive Our Hearts in Niles, Michigan, calling women to freedom, fullness, and fruitfulness in Christ.
