In reflection on their conversation with Jean Daly, Sarah and Erin share about how we can be quick to judge others until we’re in relationship with them, but we should instead accept God’s gift of repentance and be curious about their stories. 

Jean Daly is passionate about helping children in need through foster care and equine-assisted learning. Today, we learn about how God called Jean to Himself, about her view of femininity growing up, and how she and her husband, Jim, became involved in foster care. Jean’s love for others will leave you inspired.    Flying Horse Foundation   Focus on the Family  The Language of God by Dr. Francis Collins  The Cost of Discipleship by Dietrich Bonhoeffer   Person of Interest by J.
