    How Faith Rewrites A Life Sentence - Pastor and Author Thomas Jordan

    Send us Fan Mail A life sentence is supposed to be the end of the road, but Pastor Thomas Jordan’s story points to a different kind of ending and a different kind of beginning. We sit down and catch up on what God has done since his release after 21 years in the Florida prison system, and why he believes your story does not have to end the way it starts. If you’ve been carrying shame, regret, or the feeling that you’ve gone too far, this conversation offers a steady, Scripture-rooted path back to hope. We go deep on purpose and identity, from Psalm 139 to the reality of free will, and how God can use even painful consequences to pull us toward a life-changing decision. We also wrestle with what faith looks like when nothing is changing yet, why praising God in the valley is harder than praising on the mountaintop, and how worship shifts our mindset even when our circumstances stay the same. Along the way, we talk about hearing God again through the noise and distractions that can make an entire culture assume God is silent or “dead.” You’ll also hear from Pastor Tawana Jordan on serving with a pure heart, whether that’s cleaning the church, feeding the community, or doing ministry without applause. We spotlight Thomas’ book From Serving Life to Serving Life, the meaning behind the title, and why setbacks do not cancel calling. If you want a fresh fire for church, prayer, worship, repentance, and spiritual growth, this one will meet you where you are.

    She Died Twice And Heard Jesus Say Go Back - Testimony of Doreen Baecher

    Send us Fan Mail She says she was alone, mid-divorce, and ready to die with pills in her mouth and a knife in her hand when a voice cut through everything: “Drop the knife, spit out those pills. I love you.” That moment became the first turning point in Doreen’s life and it’s where our conversation starts, with honesty about despair, distrust of church, and what it feels like when hope runs out. Then the story gets even more startling. Doreen describes a medical emergency that sent her to the ER, where doctors later told her she died twice and had to be shocked back both times. She remembers her spirit rising into overwhelming brightness and peace, hearing a command to “go back,” and seeing Jesus beside her. Moments later, she says she watched the resuscitation happening below. The doctor’s conclusion is just as dramatic: two stents placed behind her heart and no heart muscle damage, calling her a “walking miracle.” We also talk about what comes after a near-death experience and a miracle recovery: living with “spiritual eyes,” sharing your testimony even when people might mock you, and offering a clear word to anyone in a desperate state. If you’re searching for stories about hearing God’s voice, Christian testimony, heaven is real, repentance, or coming back to faith after backsliding, Doreen’s message is simple and intense: don’t wait to come home.

    From Leftovers To A Lifeline - Interview with Minister Kathleen Fairgood

    Send us Fan Mail A bag of leftovers doesn’t look like a ministry until you put it in your hands and walk it to someone who’s hungry. We sit down with Kathleen “Kat” Fairgood, founder of a local feeding outreach in Bakersfield, California, and trace the real path from quiet park drop-offs to a weekly hot meal ministry and food pantry serving more than 275 meals on campus. Along the way, we talk about the moments that matter: the pastor who hears one sentence and sees a calling, the slow work of building trust with unhoused neighbors, and the kind of consistency that turns a Thursday meal into a place people count on.  We also get practical about what growth actually costs. Kat shares how they upgraded a church kitchen step by step, how a simple “free hot meal every week” sign became a magnet for donations, and why visibility and humility often beat perfect planning. We dig into the Blessing Boutique clothing ministry, how proceeds feed back into the outreach, and how getting connected to county food resources changes what’s possible for a pantry that once paid retail prices for everything.  The conversation goes deeper than logistics, too. We reflect on discipleship as everyday service, the prayers offered before meals, and the surprising mix of guests who show up: seniors looking for fellowship, families squeezed by high grocery prices, kids needing summer meals, and people who are simply tired of the street. If you’ve ever felt a nudge to help your community but didn’t know where to start, this is your reminder: pray, then move.

    Legacy Show with Sister Quonda J. Warner

    Send us Fan Mail Words cut deep. Depression set in. As a child, Sister Quonda Warner felt singled out, blamed, and broken. She wanted to give up entirely. But God, through her grandmother's love and the prayers of faithful people, pulled her through. Today, she runs Expressions of Kindness Cleaning Service, LLC, a business that's really a ministry. When Quandra enters a home, she doesn't just clean—she prays. She intercedes for families, senses their needs, and brings the presence of Christ into every room. This isn't a "dramatic" testimony. There's no prison time, no addiction story. But that's exactly why it matters. Quandra shares what it's like to grow up in church, still feel unseen, and wonder if your story even counts. She discovered that it does. She also speaks honestly about the weight of words—how teasing and criticism shaped her, and how she's determined to speak life over others. Her message: when you feel like giving up, serve somebody else. Refresh others, and you'll find yourself refreshed. If you've ever questioned whether your testimony matters, this episode is for you.

    Interview with Felicia Hurd

    Send us Fan Mail We talk with Felicia Hurd about learning to “count it all joy” when life falls apart, and how God turns broken pieces into deeper trust. We share honest stories about trials, community, obedience, and the slow work of spiritual growth rooted in James 1.  • writing “Count It All Joy” by gathering years of journals and filtering every page through glorifying God and adding value  • why “count it all joy” is not instant, and how faith grows over years through real hardship  • job loss, divorce, remarriage, and surviving breast cancer as turning points that shape testimony and ministry  • choosing trusted people who hold your heart without judgement, especially when you want to isolate  • finding community as a new believer by praying, staying open, and looking for character and fruit  • consulting God before major decisions, even when everyone else is ready for you to move fast  • mentoring younger women and building relationships across generations in the church  • following the Holy Spirit’s nudge to pray, even when it feels awkward or inconvenient  Go on Amazon, buy her book.  Just say yes to Jesus today.  https://www.feliciahurd.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Count-All-Including-Broken-Pieces/dp/B09LWP1BJC/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=AUTHOR&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.cgfQl7GWTsAnThhbMd6UKA.B4E9m5dEYazWEjePPdbjPgG_c-IA381huZ4Dr9mLFWg Support the show

    Interview with Joy Werner

    Send us Fan Mail A great voice can turn heads, but it can’t carry your soul. We sit down with worship pastor and Christian music artist Joy Werner to talk about the difference between sounding good and leading people into the presence of Jesus, and why authentic worship has to be formed in private long before it’s expressed in public. Joy shares how her calling started as a shy teenager, how God used ministry family roots and hard transitions to shape her, and what it means to be the same person off stage that you are on stage. We also get real about the identity traps that come with gifting. Joy opens up about seasons where recognition for her voice tried to become her identity, and why it actually grieves her when people celebrate talent but miss an encounter with God. From leading worship in front of thousands to helping her parents build a church that began with ten people in a garage, she explains how hidden seasons build humility, character, and a shepherd’s heart. If you’re a worship leader, pastor, creative, or church volunteer, these insights hit right where real ministry is made. The conversation moves into healing and obedience through the power of testimony. Joy explains how years of journaling God’s voice became the foundation for her devotional book, Joy In The Journey, built around scripture, reflection, and daily growth with Jesus. We close with a clear, simple invitation to choose Jesus, practical encouragement to start reading the Bible in Romans and the Gospels, and why church community matters even when people have hurt you.

    Interview with Fire Captain Matt Gonsalves

    Send us Fan Mail One word. Total silence. A raging commercial fire. Matt, a career firefighter and current fire captain, tells us about the split-second moment he heard “Stop” and froze, only to watch a massive hood system collapse exactly where he was about to move. For anyone curious about hearing God’s voice, spiritual discernment, and the reality of the Holy Spirit, this is a raw, grounded testimony from the front lines of public service. We also talk about the path that led there: leaving a surface-level faith behind, asking uncomfortable questions about prayer, and learning what a Spirit-filled relationship with Jesus can look like in everyday life. Matt shares how faith changes the way he approaches dangerous calls, leadership, and the mental load that comes with seeing tragedy up close. Then the story widens to a mission trip to Chennai, India, where Christians gather with deep hunger for the gospel under real restrictions. Matt describes praying for long lines of people, relying on the Holy Spirit across language barriers, and witnessing a moment that shook his expectations: a man who had not spoken in 20 years begins to speak, saying “Yeshua,” and whispering “Nandri” in thanks. We close with simple, practical encouragement for anyone who wants to seek God with fresh hunger: read the Word, pray daily, and make room for God to lead.

    What If Your Hardest Story Is Your Calling? - Legacy episode with Pastor Yolanda Outen

    Send us Fan Mail Some ministries happen on a stage. Others happen in a park with a line of hungry people and a prayer whispered one-on-one. We’re joined by Pastor Prophetess Yolanda P Outen, a faith leader in Columbia, South Carolina, whose work centres on prayer ministry, women’s encouragement, and homeless outreach where she regularly feeds and prays with large crowds at a local park. If you’ve ever wondered what Christian outreach looks like outside a church building, this conversation gets specific and real. Yolanda shares the long road into her prophetic calling, including early dreams that came to pass, the fear that followed, and the way mentorship and time helped her understand what God was doing in her life. We also talk about pastoring as counselling and covering people beyond four walls, plus the conviction that every workplace can become a ministry if we choose to serve the people in front of us. We dig into what it feels like when “something is missing” in church, and why Yolanda connects that hunger to receiving the Holy Ghost. We say plainly that the gifts of the Spirit are not reserved for the educated, the ordained, or the polished, and we point listeners toward pursuing spiritual healing first, trusting God to restore the broken places of the soul. You’ll also hear how to reach Yolanda for prayer, when her radio ministry “Women After God’s Heart” airs, and why she’s asking for help typing and publishing her life testimony.
