The Deep Dish Live: Endurance In The Faith (with Nancy Guthrie And Jen Wilkin)
In this live recording from TGCW26, Courtney and Melissa talk with Nancy Guthrie and Jen Wilkin about how to persevere in faith for the rest of your life.
They make the point that we shouldn’t give up on something just because it’s hard, and they discuss how to cling to faith through suffering, through prosperity, and even when our Christian heroes fail. Listen to and be encouraged by the Bible promises that keep these four women anchored in the faith.
