Episode 95 - Singing Praise in the Difficult with Angela Ray and Grace Anna Rodgers

When Angela Ray Rodgers’s daughter, Grace Anna, was in the womb,
doctors advised her to end her pregnancy.  The disabilities
and challenges her daughter would face seemed
insurmountable.  Today, Lee sits down with Angela and Grace
Anna for a conversation about life, resiliency, joy and
hope.  Grace Anna has a rare form of dwarfism and lives with
many challenges that require constant care, but both Angela and
Grace Anna see God’s love written all over their story.
