A Pocketful of Grace
A podcast created by Luke from A Pocketful of Grace for the lost, hurt, and broken to find truth, love, and faith in Jesus Christ. This podcast was designed as a safe home for those who feel abandoned and confused.
It is my hope to talk about life and bring God's light into the seemingly dark and controversial topics of our world. I hope that this will be an outstretched arm to catch those who are falling and be a helping hand to those who need it.
A fun episode about marriage and how it is more than just sex.

Hey everyone!
Thought I'd give a little update on Bernadette. Shortly after we recorded this episode, she reached out and told me that she met up with her former mentor. Although there was a lot of hurt, they were able to have a difficult conversation that eventually led to reconciliation. Even though we're all in our own individual journeys, I think we can celebrate the victories that we get to witness. So, I hope you can have a moment wherever you are to celebrate with me for Bernadette! :)
Anyway, that's all for the update. I'll see you guys in the next one!
