For Chris + Julie Bennett, they left their home and family in Oklahoma to follow God’s leading to build a life in California. And that transition was immediately met with difficulties – from house contracts falling through to discovering that Julie had stage 3 breast cancer. They quickly learned that home is really about who you do life with. 

Their journey has led them to write their book “Fighting For Family”, because family is for everyone. And family isn’t just those you are related to. It’s the community you choose or find. 

• What does your family look like? 


• Who have you found or chosen to be part of your family? 

Listen in as Candace sits down with Chris + Julie to talk about seasons in life where the family was defined by people (related or not), what walking through hardships in unfamiliar places has taught them, and key tips that can help you overcome family barriers.
