Can life be both bitter and sweet? Can you experience chaos and peace at the very same time? Can your heart break and simultaneously overflow with compassion, endurance, and love?

Raised by her grandparents, faced with an unexpected divorce, stirred to adopt two additional children as a single mom fighting to keep the lights on, Stefannie Powell knows firsthand that GOD SHOWS UP IN THE GLORIOUSLY HARD.

“Had I not been in that desperate place, I would’ve never allowed myself to feel God as my provider.”  —Stefannie Powell

Today at The Messy Table, Stefannie is candidly sharing her powerful story with Amy Groeschel and me. Stefannie is the Executive Director at Branch15 (a transitional housing ministry), a biological + adoptive mama, and a woman who’s not afraid to risk for the name of Christ. Join us!
