    When Faith that God Will Provide Results in a Miracle
    Sep 4 2024

What I’ve learned from working on these books is that these true stories of answered prayers, angels, breathtaking coincidences, miraculous healing, and messages from heaven show us that miracles are all around us if we open our eyes to them.

    Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul. Today I’m going to share with you one of my most popular pieces on Medium.

I started getting published on Medium in April, mostly in two publications which feature interesting stories and great writing. This story appeared in a publication called The Narrative Arc, and it’s called “Forgiveness is Incredibly Liberating,” with the subtitle: How you can change your life in one second, just by deciding Learn more about your ad choices.

    Therapy Cats for Dogs

    Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and for the next couple of weeks we’re going to be talking about dogs.

After all, they keep us company, provide so much unconditional love, share in the ups and downs of our lives, and definitely make every day an adventure. And they can be remarkably human, even needing a little therapy, just like their human family members. And sometimes that therapy comes in the form of a cat. Learn more about your ad choices.
