    Turning Pain into Peace, Purpose, and Freedom - Growing Up with an Incarcerated Parent :: Miranda Andrews' Story [Episode 369]

    From our Tupelo, Mississippi community, Miranda Andrews shares a tender and powerful story of growing up without her earthly father after he went to prison when she was in second grade. In the ache of that absence, Miranda wrestled with feelings of rejection, confusion, and longing. Yet even in the pain, she can now see the steady pursuit of the Lord, gently allowing circumstances that would ultimately draw her to Himself and shape her future.   After surrendering her life to Jesus, Miranda experienced what only He can do—turning deep wounds into peace, purpose, and freedom. Her story is a moving reminder that no childhood, no loss, and no season is beyond the reach of God's pursuing love.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.

    Hope in the Hard - A Story of Surrender and the Presence of God :: Sarah Waller's Story [Episode 368]

    As we journey toward Heaven, God, in His kindness, continually reveals who He is and invites us to experience His presence more intimately. Today's storyteller, Sarah Waller from our Homewood, Alabama community, reminds us that in life's hardest moments, surrendering to God opens our eyes to His faithful nearness.   Sarah shares how the Lord gently revealed His Kingship to her in her twenties and the sustaining power of the Holy Spirit in her thirties—showing up in both the big moments and the quiet, everyday ones. These revelations, however, were forged through deep suffering: first, the loss of her mother to cancer, and later, the trial of undergoing an intense brain surgery.   Through every loss and uncertainty, God tenderly called Sarah to rest in this truth—that she is a daughter of the King, fully seen, deeply known, and unconditionally loved.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: What is God teaching you in this season of your life? Reflect on how He is showing you His faithfulness. _______________________________________________________________   Listen to a similar story: Ep. 254- Toma Knight: "Living in Light of Eternity"   Download a phone background of the weekly verse HERE!    Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Sarah and any of our past storytellers!   Join us "In the Room" on Patreon to access new stories straight from our live gatherings around the country!   Register here for our Finding God in the Details workshop being offered online on April 21st.   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series~ Stories of Hope, Stories of Freedom, Stories of Faith Are you interested in one-on-one coaching with our very own Robyn Kown!?  Click HERE!   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.

    Praying When God Feels Silent - A Mother's Story of Trust: Leslie Hedge :: [Episode 367]

    Watching your child struggle—whether with friendships, health, or their faith—is a journey no parent is ever prepared for. In today's episode, our storyteller reminds us what it looks like to keep praying, even when God feels silent.   Leslie Hedge, who shared her story with our community group in Fairhope, Alabama, watched her son struggle socially through his adolescent years. Her heart broke when he eventually walked away from his faith and declared himself an atheist. That heartbreak turned into fear and panic when an unexpected health crisis suddenly put his life at risk. Yet, as Leslie witnessed God working in miraculous, behind-the-scenes ways to save her son's life, her hope was renewed. She became confident that the same God who preserved his life would one day restore his heart. Listen in as Leslie shares the powerful ways God brought healing, redemption, and hope back into her son's story.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: "Now to him who can do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us." Ephesians 3:20   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Is there an area of your life where you feel God is silent in your prayers? Be encouraged and find rest in knowing God sees you, hears you, knows you, and cares for you!   _____________________________________________________________   Listen to a similar story: Ep. 198- Zoe Tenner: "Letting Go of Control:: A Mother/Daughter Story."   Download a phone background of the weekly verse HERE!   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Leslie and any of our past storytellers!   Join us "In the Room" on Patreon to access new stories straight from our live gatherings around the country!   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series~ Stories of Hope, Stories of Freedom, Stories of Faith Are you interested in one-on-one coaching with our very own Robyn Kown!?  Click HERE!   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.   Sign up to receive StoryTellers Live's weekly newsletter for updates and details on our live gatherings.

    God's Kindness in Unexpected Motherhood:: Lauren Kelly's Story :: [Episode366]

    When life doesn't unfold the way we expected, it can cause us to question God's love and His kindness. In seasons of sadness and disappointment, today's podcast reminds us that the Lord is still at work—bringing good on our behalf and glory to His name.   In this episode, Lauren Kelly, who shared at our Vestavia, Alabama live gathering, vulnerably tells the story of an unexpected journey. From being a single young adult to becoming the wife of a widower and the mother of three children, Lauren faced the challenges of stepping into grief, loss, and the feeling of living life in a fishbowl. Along the way, she also experienced the heartbreak of two miscarriages.   Through it all, Lauren has seen how God brings beauty from hard places. Her story reminds us that while we aren't promised an easy life, we are promised a God who is our comfort, strength, and ever-present help.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: "Not one of all the LORD's good promises to Israel failed; every one was fulfilled." Joshua 21:45   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Where are you letting your eyes focus on your feelings and expectations rather than on the goodness and kindness of God? Get your eyes focused on God's Word and Who He says He is. _________________________________________________________ Listen to a similar story: Episode 201- Jimma Smith: "Working All Things for Good"   Join us for our Stories of Hope luncheon on March 11th in Birmingham (registration ends March 9th)!   Download a phone background of the weekly verse HERE!   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Lauren and any of our past storytellers!   Join us "In the Room" on Patreon to access new stories straight from our live gatherings around the country!   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series~ Stories of Hope, Stories of Freedom, Stories of Faith Are you interested in one-on-one coaching with our very own Robyn Kown!?  Click HERE!   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.   Sign up to receive StoryTellers Live's weekly newsletter for updates and details on our live gatherings.

    Equipped by God - A Caregiver's Story of Alzheimer's: Jennifer Roberts [Episode 365]

    If you've ever cared for someone with Alzheimer's—or loved someone who has—you know the quiet heartbreak of watching a person you cherish slowly fade, even while they are still physically present. It's a journey marked by grief, exhaustion, and a longing for strength that often feels just out of reach.   In today's episode, storyteller Jennifer Roberts from our West Cobb community outside of Atlanta, Georgia, shares her experience of walking alongside her father-in-law as her mother-in-law battled Alzheimer's. With honesty and tenderness, Jennifer reflects on the weight of caregiving, the sorrow woven into the disease, and the unexpected ways God met her family in the middle of it all. Her story is a powerful reminder that when God calls us into a difficult season, He also equips us with perseverance, sustains us with His presence, and leads us forward with hope, joy, and strength.   If you are a caregiver—or know someone who is—this is a story you won't want to miss, and one you'll want to share.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." James 1:2-4   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: If you know someone who is caretaking for a loved one, reach out to them this week by sending an encouraging message, making a call to check in on them, or offering to be of some assistance. ________________________________________________ Listen to Jennifer Roberts' sisters' story from season 8-  Ep. 300- Laurel Henson:  "The Providence of God: A Story of Love After Loss."

    The God Who Heals Completely: Erin Hindman's Story :: [Ep. 362]

    This week is National Eating Disorders Awareness Week. In honor of the nearly 30 million people in the United States affected by eating disorders, we're sharing a powerful story of hope, healing, and redemption in Jesus.   In today's podcast, Erin Hindman from our Tulsa, Oklahoma community vulnerably opens up about her long battle with anorexia—a struggle she once believed would always leave its mark. She describes living in the "smoke" long after the fire had burned, unsure if true freedom was even possible. But as you'll hear, God met Erin in the depths of her pain, revealing His limitless power to heal, restore, and make all things new. Erin's story is a beautiful reminder that no brokenness is beyond the reach of Jesus, and that lasting freedom is found in Him alone.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: "… they saw that the fire had not harmed their bodies, nor was a hair of their heads singed; their robes were not scorched, and there was no smell of fire on them." Daniel 3:27   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Are you carrying around the "smoke" of past fires you've walked through? Today, find freedom, life, and new beginnings knowing you are washed clean by Jesus.  ________________________________________________ Listen to a similar story:  Ep. 323- Erica Antonneau: "A Posture of Surrender- Saved from an Eating Disorder"; Ep. 342 - Lindsay Wells:  "All Pain Matters To God."   Download a phone background of the weekly verse HERE!   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Erin and any of our past storytellers!   Join us "In the Room" on Patreon to access more stories straight from our live gatherings around the country!   Click here for further details on our Stories of Hope luncheon on March 11th in Birmingham!
