Suebiquitous Podcast
Host Sue Duffield is presented with the question often, "Aren’t you just too busy? How do you do all the travel, the conferences, the podcasts (4), recording, the followup with events - let alone spend quality time with those you love, etc. etc.?"

160. Faith To Believe
Suebiquitous Podcast
Faith is an extremely powerful force. And without it, we can't even begin to please God. It's purely impossible according to Hebrews 11:6. And since we're living in these crazy, challenging and even urgent times, most of us are in desperate need of an all access pass to faith. It's not surprising too, that faith without works is dead. Seriously, dead. This episode begins with host Sue Duffield's surprising exposure to a Yamaha grand piano sale in Costco, none the less!
