Singer/songwriter Matthew West joins our Peace For Everyday Life series to share how he’s experienced the power God has to work good in the midst of our broken and sometimes messy stories. He encourages us that even while we might be discouraged as to how our story is playing out today, God still has amazing chapters that are unwritten and that we need to trust Him with even our most disappointing moments. . Matthew shares, “I know that God is real. I know that He is the one who gives purpose to my life. And when I feel weak in my faith, I can look over my shoulder and see who's been faithful all along the way.”

Speaker, consultant, and author Esther Fleece Allen joins our Peace For Everyday Life series to share how we can realize the power in our names, how the labels we place on others make a serious impact, and how seasons of stillness can lead to renewal. Esther shares how to recognize that a way to overcome our past is by finding the courage to share our testimonies and to share what Jesus has done in our lives so that we can see just how much He has transformed us. She says, “There's power in a name. There's power in what we name others, what we name future generations. And there's power in the name we take on for ourselves of who we're gonna become.”

The Bachelor alum Madison Prewett joins our Peace for Everyday Life series to share how she has sought to stay true to her values, to her beliefs, and to God. Madison knows firsthand that the world tries to pull us into something that isn’t God’s plan, and how you prepare privately will determine how you perform publicly. Knowing your value, implementing a consistent routine, and surrounding yourself with the right influences can make all the difference, and Madison shares that “There’s only one answer. There’s only one way. There’s only one truth. There’s only one hope. And that’s Jesus.”

Author Janine Urbaniak Reid joins our Peace for Everyday Life series to share how God is always with us in the middle of our worst crises. When Janine’s son was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor, Janine had to figure out how to cope with living in constant difficulties, and realized that it was okay to have human emotions and remain faithful at the same time. She shares how important self-care is in tough times, how to invite God in when you don’t have any answers, which she writes about in her book The Opposite of Certainty.
