S2 Ep 1: Finding Faith- Grief, Growth, and New Seasons

Season 2 of Almost Together begins with an honest conversation about faith, what it means, how it evolves, and how it sustains us through life’s hardest seasons. In this episode, Kandice opens the season by reflecting on her own faith journey and how it has grown over time. She shares a personal life update, including navigating grief after the passing of her grandmother, moving into a new space, and stepping into a new season of community and growth. Through scripture and reflection, this episode explores what genuine biblical faith looks like in everyday life — not just something we say we believe, but something that shapes how we live, love, and trust God. Season 2 will feature powerful conversations with incredible women sharing their stories of finding faith through loss, waiting, healing, and life’s unexpected turns. If you’ve ever wrestled with your faith, questioned God’s timing, or found yourself searching for hope again, this season is for you.

Let Gratitude Be Your Posture

✨Let Gratitude Be Your Posture✨ This Thanksgiving hits different for me. Not because everything in my life is perfect… but because I can look back over the last few years and clearly see God’s fingerprints on every single season — even the ones that didn’t make sense in the moment. I’ve walked through valleys, delays, closed doors, unanswered prayers, and “protective no’s” that frustrated me at the time…but ended up saving me. Shaping me. Growing me. Positioning me. This year, I’m learning what it really means to have a posture of Thanksgiving — not just a holiday, not just a moment, but a heart position that says: “God, I trust You in every season. The seen and the unseen. The answered prayers and the silent ones. The mountains and the valleys.” Great is His faithfulness. Always. 💛 🎧 Watch & listen Episode 12 now on….
