A Tribute to Ruth Ann Polston: Fruit Of The Lips

Hey friends, today’s episode is incredibly special. It’s a tribute to a life well-lived, a life of impact, faith, and purpose. My dear friend, Ruth Ann Polston, went to heaven last week, and while my heart misses her deeply, I am beyond grateful for the time I had to sit at her feet and learn from her wisdom.

A few years ago, I had the honor of bringing Ruth Ann into the studio for a podcast conversation, and today, I want to share that with you. She was 92 (or 93!) at the time, and she radiated wisdom, joy, and the kind of faith that leaves a lasting impact.

In this episode, we talk about the power of words, how they shape our lives, and why what we speak matters. Ruth Ann lived her life with intention, always making a difference in the lives of those around her. Whether she was in a restaurant, a hospital, or a nursing home, she made sure people knew they were valued. Her words always lifted, encouraged, and spoke life into others. I hope this conversation blesses you as much as she blessed me.
