Today&rsquo;s episode is one of those that reminds us why we do this!&nbsp; We&rsquo;re joined by our beloved community member Margie, who shares her breathtaking story of redemption &mdash; a story marked by God&rsquo;s fingerprints in every moment, from early struggles with alcohol to the steady unfolding of peace, purpose, and true freedom in Christ. What began decades ago as a quiet search for belonging became a story of divine pursuit &mdash; one where God never stopped showing up, even when shame, anxiety, and vodka tried to take the lead. Margie opens up about the hard years, the miracle moments, and the countless little ways God met her &mdash; sometimes in spilled drinks, sometimes in worship songs, and always in love. Whether you&rsquo;re still in the messy middle or walking in freedom, this conversation will help you start spotting God&rsquo;s fingerprints in your own story,&nbsp; because He&rsquo;s closer than you think. 📘 What You&rsquo;ll Learn in This Episode: <ul> <li aria-level="1">How Margie&rsquo;s lifelong relationship with alcohol began and how God patiently rewrote her story.</li> <li aria-level="1">The difference between striving for control and surrendering to grace.</li> <li aria-level="1">How worship, Scripture, and the BJDW community helped her break the cycle of shame and isolation.</li> <li aria-level="1">Why vulnerability is the bridge between stuck and free.</li> <li aria-level="1">What it really means to trust God&rsquo;s timing.</li> <li aria-level="1">How to look for God&rsquo;s way out, even when you miss it, and return to gratitude the next day.</li> <li aria-level="1">The freedom that comes when shame no longer silences your story.</li> </ul> 💡 Tiny Tina Tip:If you&rsquo;re praying for God to help you in temptation &mdash; look for His fingerprints.They might show up in small interruptions, a worship lyric, or a gentle nudge from someone who loves you.
