Welcome to Renaissance Voices. My name is Kristene ODell, owner of 8 Owls Publishing. Have you ever wanted to get to know the authors behind the books you read? I have! I’m fascinated by the way Jesus moves in the lives of real people with real stories who have met a real Savior in their time of need. It’s these types of authors I love to work with and it’s my privilege to introduce them to you.

S.2 Ep.6 Cleansing the Land Post Roe vs Wade

Talor and I interview Hannah Scholz as we talk through a prayer assignment we were tasked with last year.

Because America is now a post Roe v Wade nation, but we have yet to see revival take place. What if God is calling His intercessors into a nation-wide prayer assignment to cleanse the land of all the effects of abortion being so ingrained in our nation?
