Welcome to the Storytellers Live podcast where everyday women share stories of hope found in Jesus.

I'm Robin and I am here with Katie and Lindy and we are your podcast host.

You know, today we are

bringing you the most unique story from someone so young but so wise. This is Lauren Bell from our

Homewood community. When I found out that she was 24 years old, I was blown away because she is so

wise in especially how she delivers her story. Her story is about a journey with a disability,

but it's also just a reminder to all of us about our struggles with our self-image and just

living, knowing that God created us purposefully and for his glory. I can't wait for you to hear it

to get more joy and wisdom from Lauren because she will be our story within the story today with

Amy Grody. So if you're not a member, it's simple to join. Just scroll on down the show notes right

now and click the link and you can join us in our Patreon community. Or always, you can visit our

website. Here's Lauren.
