If you’re anything like me, the busyness of life sometimes causes priorities to get mixed up, and I find myself not in the Word as much as I’d like to be. If you can relate, you’re going to love today’s guest. I’m sitting down with Gretchen Saffles, the founder of Well-Watered Women and author of Word Before World, a devotional that helps us keep Jesus at the center of our lives.
Here’s what you’ll learn in today’s episode:
