• The Anchor of Hope: Emily Curzon's Story :: {Episode 351]

  Happy day before Thanksgiving! This week we are especially grateful for each one of you - from listening and sharing the podcast to supporting and praying for the ministry - we couldn't be here without you. So, a BIG thank you from the StoryTellers Live ministry!   Today on the podcast, we have an incredible story of hope from Tulsa, Oklahoma community team member, Emily Curzon. Emily beautifully shares how the loss of her sister taught her so much about herself and her faith. Through her story, Emily reminds us of the sweet truths the Lord has given her through His kindness and faithfulness: how grief and joy can coexist; how the practice of remembering can increase your trust in God; and how the hope found in Jesus is in fact a secure anchor for your soul.  This is a great story to reflect on this holiday weekend! _________________________________________________________________________ VERSE OF THE WEEK: "We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure." Hebrews 6:19   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Practice the art of remembrance this Thanksgiving week and be grateful for the hope you have in Jesus Christ.    Listen to a similar story: Diane Lee-  Ep. 310: "Grieving with Hope: The Promises of God"   Search on the Spotify playlist for StoryTellers Live episodes based on a topic of interest to you!   Download a phone background of the weekly verse HERE!    Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Emily and any of our past storytellers!   Become a Patreon Insider to access bonus content~ including a Q & A with Emily and the audience at the Tulsa live gathering!   Shop our Christmas store for all your stocking stuffer needs!  It Closes on December 8th!   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series~ Stories of Hope, Stories of Freedom, Stories of Faith Are you interested in one-on-one coaching with our very own Robyn Kown!?  Click HERE!   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.
