Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid
Be Afraid, Be Very AfraidAmanda OwensJanuary 5, 2020 Scripture: Nehemiah 6.10-16 I was rather absent-mindedly scrolling through my Facebook feed the other day, and I happened upon a targeted ad for a conference.

She was the only woman nominated in the category, and she was the only woman directing a musical on Broadway last season.
