“It always comes back to the family.” ~Gayle Ruzicka
As a young girl, Gayle’s parents forced her to go to church, even though they didn’t attend themselves. This caused her to look inward–to forge her own relationship with God and determine the belief system that would guide her through life. She clung to Christianity, and its moral principles became the foundation upon which she built her life and her home.
A mother of 12, devoted homeschooler and political activist, Gayle took her children EVERYWHERE with her! They sat countless times in the state capital, learning about what government is, why it matters and how it works. These experiences proved to deepen her family’s faith in, and understanding of, eternal principles that govern all areas of life–including government.
Listen this week to her experiences in the 7 Laws of Life Mission–learning to love God, herself, truth and humanity. And hear about the amazing difference her mission driven life has made in her home, her community, her state and her country!
