She's Making An Impact's Podcast

God is described in many ways in the Bible. He is called: “the One Who was, Who is, and Who is to come.” He’s known as Jehovah, Lord, Messiah, and Savior. But today, Terra explores the power of the name God uses to call Himself in Exodus. He simply calls Himself, “I Am.”  Join Terra in today’s episode, as she explores the powerful thought that God is with us right now, in this very moment. We can’t go back to yesterday and tomorrow isn’t here yet. But, God is with us in THIS moment, so there is no need to fear. We are not alone and we are deeply loved. ___________________________________________________________ Connect with Terra:  If you want to talk business, go to helpmecoachinow.com and set up a time to chat about your next best steps in this journey.  For prayer requests or to discuss your relationship with Christ, text Terra at 865-309-4737. ___________________________________________________________ Ready for more?
