Simple Tools for Meeting with God | Episode 55

Meeting with God each day is the most important thing a parent can do.

When Carole was a brand new Christian, one of her pastors taught her, “Don’t let your feet touch the ground in the morning before you have met with God!”

Over the years she’s tried different ways of having a quiet time, and in this episode she shares the tools that help her most.
