"Therefore, since we have been made right on God's sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us. Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of undeserved privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God's glory. We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love." (Romans 5:1-5 NLT)
One of the unique things about the ministry of Just Between Us is that we are reader-written ministry. Women from all over the world, who have a heart to walk alongside women to encourage, inspire, comfort, help, and bring hope through the power of God's Word, share their writing gifts with this ministry. They are women just like you, coming from all ages and stages of life─single women, married women, joyful women, hurting women, and everything in between. Our authors are women who don't want you to feel alone, so they put their hearts out there, so you will have those "me too" moments and feel like you have made a new friend. Somehow now your faith journey doesn't seem so hard, so overwhelming. You will find an incredible sisterhood waiting for you as our authors share their hearts...and leave every article saying, "Someone understands me and my heart. Someone gets what I'm going through." And they do!
