At a true woman conference, Karen Leritz took the stage.

She shared about the night her family began to walk through a deep dark valley.

I have never been so broken in such despair.

So worried about our little family

as I had been that night.

Fern Nichols from moms in prayer was in the auditorium that night. What was so sweet about Karen as she spoke to the women is that

she really bared her heart, that it's not always easy to be a true woman, a true woman who trusts and obeys God's word and her family

are going through a very difficult time. She was able to share how she chose to make decisions in light of

being a true woman that helped her. So she was very real and I'm sure she touched many

hearts with being so vulnerable.

We're about to hear that message that affected Fern Nichols and thousands of others.

This is the Revive Our Hearts Podcast with Nancy Damas Walgamuth, author of Adorned, living out the beauty of the gospel together.

Let me ask you, what's the deepest concern on your heart today? We're about to hear a message from my friend Karen Lartz. She's really honest about the struggles

and pain that we experience in this life. And not only she very real and

vulnerable about the pain, she'll also take us to the feet of Jesus, where you can

find the only genuine help right in the middle of your pain.

So true.

Well, Karen is the wife of Dr. Crawford L'Ritz, who served for many years as pastor of Fellowship

Bible Church in Roswell, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta.
