Welcome to “Gray Hair Talking,” the YouTube Video Ministry of Friendly Avenue Church of Christ’s own Rachel Solomon.
Need help getting through the day? I am a gray-haired, great-grandmother offering a few minutes of encouragment, motivation and inspiration in my “Gray Hair Talking” videos–brief vignettes about a variety of topics from my experiences in handling life’s ups and downs. In my early 70’s, I want to lift up the name of Christ with videos that motivate and inspire folks who are traveling the paths I have traveled. My videos depict how our attitudes and our dependence on God during every stage of life will determine our power to flow through our lives with a sense of calming confidence and loving grace.
