Oh My God Pod - The Podcast Hollis and Lori

As a former Navy Sailor, Cheryl was a tough, strong person who loved her work, but when her husband died unexpectedly her tough exterior was shattered. She became absorbed in her work as a way to forget her pain and distanced herself from everybody until she realized she needed Jesus to move on. She had always known Jesus but after her loss, she experienced his deeper love. The intimacy that God was giving her allowed her to see the new doors that He was opening for her calling. She now thrives in the love of Jesus and shares it with others through all of her ministries.

Hang with your hosts Hollis and Lori in this special mini-episode. We discuss what is happening in this season in our lives, the closeness we feel with the Lord and how our obedience to God is impacting the podcast. As we explore the theme of obedience toward God, we discover that God can call us to rest and He can also force us to rest.  Hear how we are following God’s call to rest through this 2021 holiday season and our hope that we can lead by example to rest in Him.

When his original desire to be a meteorologist turned to campus ministry, and then those doors started closing, Nick continued to follow God’s prompting with enthusiasm. He found God calling Him into ministry in the wild of America’s National Parks. From Death Valley, to the Grand Canyon during Covid, Nick experienced a personal spiritual darkness as the world was navigating the pandemic. But just as God can reveal the majesty of the Smokey Mountains by blowing the clouds aside, He can reveal things that He is doing inside us too. After Nick felt healed through his time in the Smokies, he followed the Lord’s lead to Glacier National Park in Montana for the summer and now back to Death Valley for the winter. Hear how Nick not only obeyed God when He spoke to him about his career, but about all of his relationships too; and how he plans to continue his adventure with the Lord even if he doesn't know what’s ahead.

Faith can be tested in many ways; and if we are not secure or mature in our faith we can lose it. Fortunately for Barrett Miller, having cancer at age 32 did not shake her faith. However, years later when she lost her son in a tragic accident, she was confronted with the reality that she did not have the relationship with God that she thought. As God orchestrated the circumstances surrounding her son’s death that brought her heart peace, He was also drawing her and her family closer to Him. As Barrett explains, each person in her family grew in their relationship with God as a result of her son’s death. Additionally, as their family decided to host Bible study for their community, they realized that their son’s passing was actually a planting of the seeds of belief for many who would come to be believers. Hear the amazing journey of a grieving family who found meaning and mission through the loss of a very special young man whose impact on the world is still felt after his passing.

On August 24, Hollis interviewed Missionary Pastor Paul Traver for the Oh My God Is Awesome Membership. In a rare moment in history, Paul shares how his church and community are supporting Afghanistan evacuees on America’s largest foreign military base in Kaiserslautern Germany. From stories of Afghan babies being born inside the airplanes as they flee, to the sentiments of foreign missionaries who are facing martyrdom, you’ve got to hear this interview. In a situation filled with chaos & confusion, we still have hope in a God of order and love who works through his people.

The metaphor of planting and harvesting is one many are familiar with - seeds are sown, tended to and eventually a harvest is produced. But when God is the planter with a grand design, it can be hard as the reluctant farmer to know just what is growing and when to actually take action and harvest! Such was the case in Jill's career path with all it's twists and turns which eventually led her to follow the example of the disciples and follow God’s calling upon her life. She also shares about two very significant experiences in her life that took her from a surface-level Christian into a deep and intimate relationship with Christ. Hear how Jill finally made the decision to leave the safety and comfort of her long time job and move into a career companioning senior citizens and working to improve the lives of young adults with autism.
