Stronger Together :: Shelley Giglio, Courtney Duke, Angela Richardson & Kerri Stanfill

Today we are wrapping up Season 1 of the Grove Podcast with one of our most powerful episodes yet. We get to hear from Shelley Giglio and some of her dearest friends - Courtney Pray Duke, Angela Richardson, and Kerri Stanfill - as they recount the days surrounding the sudden and tragic death of Courtney’s husband, Andrew Pray. No one ever feels prepared to walk through something like this, and we rarely feel equipped to help others as they walk a road we haven’t walked. But as these women share, it’s clear to see how they were each given exactly what they needed for each moment. They talk about listening to the Holy Spirit when He calls us to step outside of our comfortable norms, and they give the most beautiful picture of Gospel community through their unexpected relationships. You’ll hear the redemption story of what they have seen and you’ll be so encouraged to keep pushing through as you walk alongside those who are hurting and to hold on to hope in your own dark season.

This episode helps us launch our summer of the Grove Friendcast as we are asking YOU to share podcast episodes with us! Just grab a girlfriend or someone who inspires you and record a 5-10 minute mini-podcast episode and send it our way. We want to hear your Jesus stories - how you’ve been inspired to give shade to people in your path, how you choose to flourish where you’re planted, and how you’ve been set free! Check out passioncitychurch.com/thegrove for more details on how to submit your episode. And we’ll see you in September for season 2 of the Grove Podcast!
