This week's guest on the Praying Christian Women podcast knows what it means to literally walk through the valley of the shadow of death.

Author, speaker and fellow LifeAudio podcast host Rachel Wojo blends raw grief with gospel truth as she unpacks her journey through the unthinkable: watching her daughter Taylor decline as a rare genetic disorder described as "childhood dementia" slowly robbed her of her memory, her voice, and finally her life.

This episode will equip hurting souls with Scripture-rooted hope, gentle mindset pivots to spot God's work in the fog, and practical ways to pray boldly through pain while leaving room for God's sovereignty.

You won't want to miss Rachel's powerful testimony, hard-won words of wisdom, and her unshakable faith that will be sure to reignite your prayer life no matter what you're going through today.
