Not everyone grows up with a dad who hugs them, but hugs are something we all need. Today on Wow God Stories, we share stories of hugs that reflect the love of our Heavenly Father. Derwin is a pastor and former NFL player, who saw the Holy Spirit transform the life of “Matthew the Atheist”. The story results in a hug at church. God led Greg to take an unconventional approach to sharing the love of God the Father (through hugs). A hug from a friend, turns into healing and a hug from a father.

Two birds died, and taught Derek something important. Jason went to science with questions, but it was God and the supernatural that answered. For Jason, a dove changed everything.
