MEDIA
Susan appeared on the Victorious Souls Podcast with Danielle Bernock.
In her episode titled, “From Legalism, To Atheism, To Grace,” Susan shared her story of spiritual trauma from growing up in a legalistic Independent Fundamentalist Baptist (IFB) church.
This trauma led her into atheism, but the grace and love of God operating through her husband, brought her back to faith.
