Dave DiDonato

Welcome to “Let's Chat: A Bible Chapel Podcast” where we share real conversations that are relevant to believers today. The holidays can be a time full of joy, laughter, and beautiful memories, but for some, it brings feelings of grief, sorrow, and pain. If you’re experiencing those things this Christmas Season, this episode is for you. Listen in as lead pastor Dave DiDonato and long-time Chapel member Jill Kowalski sit down for an open and honest conversation with chapel member Heidi Sadecky and the grief and loss she has experienced through the years. We pray that hearing Heidi’s story and how God has worked through her loss will be a reminder to you that you’re not alone this Christmas Season and that you can have peace and comfort in Christ. Through songs, personal testimonies, and discussion, this is truly a special Christmas episode.
