It’s Never Too Late to Make the Next Right Choice: An Interview with Amber Pluymers

Hi, friend!
In this heartfelt episode of "God's Power Stories," I introduce my daughter, Amber, sharing a deeply personal story that transformed my life. Years ago, I made a decision that I have never regretted, and I have my sweet Amber to show for it. I hope my story inspires you to make the next right choice in your own life. This episode explores themes of faith, family, and the significance of embracing life’s unexpected events.
My daughter and I engage in an open conversation about facing an unplanned pregnancy, the fears and challenges that come with it, and the immense love and support that can emerge from such circumstances. Through our shared experience, we highlight the importance of recognizing God's presence in everyday life, His messages of second chances, and the courage to make the next right choice, regardless of past decisions.
The episode also touches on societal pressures, financial concerns, and relationship struggles, while offering hope and insight to listeners who may be navigating similar situations. It's never too late to find direction and purpose in life, with faith as a guiding light!
May you witness God’s power in your own life today, my friend.
Always, Anna

Peace Amid the Preparation of Advent: 6 Fundamental Characteristics of an Ideal Stepparent

Hey, friend.
 
In today’s episode, you’ll hear how God sustained the biblical character Joseph, as he prepared himself for the role of stepparent to Yeshua Jesus, the Savior of the World. I think you’ll agree with me by the end that God couldn’t have chosen better when He chose Joseph for this crucial and influential role in the life of His only begotten Son.
 
If you want to love digging into the Bible instead of finding it intimidating, unapproachable, and maybe even unbelievable, you’re in the right place. I’ve been where you are. There have been plenty of times where I’ve questioned if God cared at all about what I was going through or if He’d even thought up a plan for my life. When I got up the guts to tell him to His face, I found that He had very broad shoulders and that He could take anything I could dish out. It can be the same for you, too.
 
May you witness God’s power in your own life today, my friend.
 
Always, Anna

The Hope of Advent: 3 Key Takeaways from the Story of Zechariah and Elizabeth

Hey, friend.
 
In today’s episode, you’ll hear how God showed up in the lives of biblical characters Zechariah and Elizabeth. The miracle was years in the making but revealed by God’s messenger angel Gabriel.
 
Like you may have heard me say before, if you want to love digging into the Bible instead of finding it intimidating, unapproachable, and maybe even unbelievable, you’re in the right place. I’ve been where you are. There have been plenty of times where I’ve questioned if God cared at all about what I was going through or if He’d even thought up a plan for my life. When I got up the guts to tell him to His face, I found that He had very broad shoulders and that He could take anything I could dish out. It can be the same for you, too.
 
May you witness God’s power in your own life today, my friend.
 
Always, Anna
