About this episode
The note and box of cookies I gave my neighbor yielded more than I could ever have hoped. But that's not why I did it. More than a year later, John 15:11 holds the key. Episode 26 proves it's all about receiving the joy in Him that will remain in us. Captions: Her gift in return was a promise that God remains
faithful always. Listen to find out what this gift was.
