Replacing fear, trauma and insecurity with love, grace and the mercy of God—that is Angela Ball’s life work. At age 19, Angela aborted an unplanned pregnancy, and the trauma of that decision stayed with her even after she and her husband Ray became parents. Today, she serves as Executive Director of Hearts for Moms, a ministry that helps single moms and celebrates the bravery that it takes to raise a child in the hardest of circumstances.

On this episode of The Live Out Loud Show, Angela explains how the Lord turned her pain into purpose, inspiring her to support single moms on a foundation of faith, hope and love. Angela describes the impact of the recent Love Out Loud donation to Hearts for Moms, discussing what programs the organization offers and how she hopes to expand nationwide. Listen in for Angela’s insight into the challenges single moms face on a daily basis and learn how to live YOUR faith by supporting Hearts for Moms!
