Episode 23: Living Deeply Rooted in Faith with Melissa Wood

Melissa Wood courageously shares many personal trials that she has endured, and the importance of living a life deeply rooted in faith.

Reflecting on scripture, and her personal experiences, she proposes a four step plan in preparing yourself for the storms of life.

Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don't try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way.

—James 1:2-4 MSG

My prayer for you is that you come to live deeply rooted in your faith as I have learned to do. Take the time now, while the storm is at bay, to plan, prepare and practice for your next storm. Build your faith in the one, who when you seek him, will answer you and deliver you, from all your fears. Jesus Christ is our living hope!

—Melissa Wood
