From My Way to God's Way - A Story of Going from Fear to Faith: Emily Watkins' Story

From My Way to God's Way - A Story of Going from Fear to Faith: Emily Watkins' Story

At the young age of 14, Emily Watkins, from our Vestavia Hills, Alabama community, lost her father suddenly in a tragic plane crash. It was a pivotal moment in Emily's life where fear became a foundation from which she lived. But God, in His loving kindness, pursued Emily's heart, longing for her to live trusting Him - Knowing and believing His ways are better, and His plan is best.

Listen and hear how the Lord sought after Emily and took her from an anxiety-driven, fear-filled world to one of safety, joy, and peace.
