In this video, Courtney Doctor and Melissa Kruger speak with bestselling author, entrepreneur, and speaker, Ruth Chou Simons, about a Bible passage she frequently visits for encouragement: “Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?” (Rom. 8:34–35).
