In this week’s episode, we discuss the term “broken home” and the importance of removing the phrase from our vocabulary. When our families are built on the foundation of Jesus Christ, they cannot be broken. Whatever is in your past does not hinder you from experiencing the blessings that God has in store for your blended family.
