Kelli Little, Dir. of VWV Women's Ministry aurthor of Love Evolving: A 21-Day Journey into the Father's Heart - “Love Evolving” was birthed for this season of pandemic. For there is a “pandemic” in the heart of the woman that God so desperately desires to cure. This 21-day journey is intentionally written to help you get started in the process. However, you must be intentional and purposeful in doing the work. It is my heart's desire for you to allow God to soothe what’s hurting, mend what’s broken, clarify what’s confused, replace what’s void, and restore what’s damaged to evolve daily. Grant Him permission by allowing His love to so carefully and tenderly captivate and heal your heart as you evolve in His. Click here for more information and to purchase.
