“You are doing better than you think. Keep going.”

On today’s episode of The Lifeline Morning Show, Steven opens with a heartfelt reminder for every mom, dad, caregiver, and faithful soul quietly holding everything together—you’re making a difference, even when no one sees.

💡 Steven shares a powerful personal story about Virgil, the early-rising church usher who shows up without applause. You’ll also hear the inspiring real-life story of Mr. Bonner, a teacher who kept reading to his students even when he thought no one was listening—until one voice returned years later to say, “You saved me.”
