Sisters, Gloria and Julie who make up A Just Glad Media, were blessed with two very extraordinary parents. Their parents were people who always prided themselves on having a close knit family. A family united not only by love, but also by intense and devoted religious beliefs for God. The whole family attended church services regularly where their father was a Church of God minister. Gloria recalls her father praying, preaching, singing, and reading the bible at an early age, carrying on a family tradition of being heavily involved in ministry. Their mother raised them in a home where the word of God was always foremost in the everyday duties of family life. She also taught piano lessons, raised 8 children who made up most of the church choir, and prayed for the sick.

A seed was planted in the sister’s heart from their earliest recollections. In Psalms 112 it states that “His seed shall be mighty upon the earth, the generation of the upright shall be blessed.” Their story is one of strong family ties and blessings.
