The Power of a Praying Mom

Today we get to hear from one of our monthly contributors, Kathy.  She is a good friend and a woman worth listening to, with her heart for the Lord and commitment to living out His Word.  Her perspective is a gift to us and I encourage you to soak in Kathy’s thoughts as she shares a Word wrapped in personal experience.  Kathy is a freelance writer and editor who lives on Long Island with her husband and three kids.
