Episode 281 - God is Your Shepherd, You Lack Nothing with Heidi Fromke

“Our Good Shepherd knows what we need more than we do and
provides what we need at just the right time.” Today Aubrie sits
down with our Appalachian Division Coordinator, Heidi Fromke, to
look at another attribute of God and dig into Psalm 23 for all
the rich truth it holds. Heidi helps us see life with all its
difficulties in proper perspective—through the eyes of God. He is
the Good Shepherd and you lack nothing.

ABOUT OUR GUEST


Learning to hold her kids loosely and trust God with them is a
daily challenge which Heidi found to be especially true when her
boys were just beginning school. It was during this time of
trying to “let go” a bit that she found Moms in Prayer after
hearing Moms in Prayer Founder, Fern Nichols, on the radio.


The Lord encouraged her to start a Moms in Prayer group at her
sons’ school in 2003. She prayed with this group of moms for 17
years. They joined her in covering her boys, their kids and their
school community. They lifted their requests to God and saw Him
do immeasurably more than they could ask or imagine as He walked
with them through a son’s illness, Young Life established at the
school, and students’ hearts turned to Christ. Heidi has come to
know the Lord in an amazingly intimate way as He has shown her
His love for her boys and that He truly can be trusted above all
else.


She has been married to Mark, who has filled her days with
laughter since 1990. They have three boys in their twenties and
two amazing daughters-in-law! After growing up in Minnesota and
spending a few years in St. Louis, they have fallen in love with
North Carolina. Heidi is looking forward to watching God work as
He draws other moms to experience His power, grace and loving
acceptance through prayer!
