Inspired Life

Nancy talked about her 18-year journey with recurring tongue cancer and what it means for her to trust God amid the fear. After years of remission, she recently experienced a reoccurrence and had to lean even more on God’s strength.

Life, Repurposed

Nancy shared a verse that meant a lot to her when fear tried to fill her mind: 

“Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Don’t let your heart be troubled or fearful.” John 14:27 (CSB)

Nancy also shared this verse that inspired her book:   

“And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work. 2 Corinthians 9:8 (ESV)
