Surrender the Plan – Leah Bender

“…His plans are always good. It’s scary to surrender because it’s unknown, but that’s faith and trust and knowing that His plans are going to be good.” – Leah Bender

This week on the Grace Unscripted Podcast, we get to hear the touching story of Leah Bender. Leah got to experience the love and faithfulness of God in an incredibly real and tangible way.

Come as You Are – Devin Thompson

“He doesn’t want you to come when your perfect…He loves you even when you are at your worst, when you are at your lowest. When you feel like you’re so broken and no one can love you, He does, and He always will.” – Devin Thompson

This week on the Grace Unscripted Podcast, we get to hear the wild and incredible story of Devin Thompson! From a hectic childhood and studying with Jehovah’s witnesses to Marine bootcamp, Devin’s story is an amazing example of Jesus chasing you down no matter what your life has looked like and how He invites us into the mission of helping make Jesus make sense to others as soon as we give our lives to Him.
