Choose Your Hard

About this episode

The episode discusses the hard choices in life, featuring Rochelle's inspiring story of giving her daughter up for adoption at a young age.

Life is hard. There is just no way around that truth. Things are going to happen that catch you by surprise and maybe even knock you off your feet and some of those things might be the consequence of sin that either you committed or sins that others committed against you. The deciding line is how you handle those moments. Your choices matter and when it comes to life, our choices have eternal impact. I loved hearing Rochelle's story of the grace of God in her life when she found herself single and pregnant at 19 years old. She chose her hard and that was giving her daughter to an adoptive family to raise. I know you will be inspired and challenged by her story. Thanks so much for taking the time to listen.
