I appreciate Pastor Ryan’s steadfast leadership. In an age of confusion I thank him for being a consistent example of unwavered faith. This year, he has faced issues that no one could have prepared for. I want to thank him for remaining steadfast and faithful even in uncertain times because in him doing so I am reminded I can too.

Last year was probably one of the toughest years I’ve been through in quite a while. In a four month time span, our beloved family dog passed away from cancer, my long-time job was eliminated and I was sent to a different division at the company, then my mother passed away suddenly, and I resigned at work. Life felt like it was spinning out of control and I could do nothing to stop it. However, through the grace of God, a lot of tears and questioning, plus a TON of prayer, I made it through the darkest moments. I am beyond grateful for WBGL and the consistent connection to prayer, worship music, and encouragement to find peace during the pain and confusion of life.
