Send me a text about this episode!

I am talking with Betty Hicks who has been keeping a home with husband Dan for 37 years. Betty is a mom, a grandmother, a retired military analyst, a breast cancer survivor and a published author. She and Dan started their married life making a home in Germany, just before the end of the cold war. The most dramatic change came when both she and Dan had separate encounters with Jesus and began to follow and obey him in every aspect of life. We will hear all about that and more in Betty’s story of home. EPISODE NOTES

• These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Deuteronomy 6:6-7 • Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Colossians 3:23-24
