The Jen ShowTRACI WARDTraci Ward is a firm believer in faith. In this episode she demonstrates that faith really does have the power to move mountains. Her personal heartfelt testimony had a very shocking ending that showed the magnitude of God's power and it really caught me by surprise. From Traci Wards personal walk with faith she wants to encourage you to continue to walk in your own with confidence that it is going to be ok. This was definitely a miracle and like she said "Your dreams will sometimes call your name and you will just have to believe."
