Visit NPR's website and listen to a story about Magdalene House, a recovery program for women in prostitution in Nashville. Magdalene is led by the Rev. Becca Stevens, who was my wife's mentor in ministry and has become the same for me. Becca officiated at our wedding and remains someone whom we want to be like when we grow up. She laughed when our then-newborn son pooped all over her when she anointed him with oil.
Magdalene has a retail program for products made by the women called Thistle Farms. Check it out today and get your mama something for Mother's Day!
I found the series very evocative/thought provoking - had no idea of the connection with you and your family. Thanks for making the connection for me.
