    The Pastor's Daughter Who Refused to Become a Victim from Sexual Abuse | Keela Craft Ambrose (EP 04)

    What if the deepest wound the enemy meant to destroy you became the very weapon God uses to set others free? In this episode of The Head and the Heel, Paula sits down with Keela Craft Ambrose: pastor's daughter, wife, mom, podcaster, and self-described warrior. Keela grew up traveling the world with her evangelist father (of The Power Team and Strike Force), but behind the scenes, the enemy was trying to bruise her young. Keela shares two heartbreaking incidents of childhood sexual abuse, one she fought off at 11 and one that paralyzed her in the same year. She walks us through how God carried her from suicidal thoughts to total freedom, how she eventually prayed blessing over her abuser's daughter, why gratitude is the only neural pathway stronger than fear, and how her family's foundation of love kept her from ever stepping into a victim identity. This is a conversation for anyone who has ever wondered: Can God really redeem THIS? Can I come out of the furnace without smelling like smoke? The answer, in Keela's life, is undeniably yes.

    The Demons Had One Rule: Never Read the Bible | Erika MacDougall of Shire Skincare (EP 03)

    Erika MacDougall grew up in a normal suburban home. No chaos on the outside. But from the time she was a small child, demons were visiting her at night - and by the time she was a teenager, she had made a deal with them to protect her family. What followed was 20 years of practicing Satanism, black magic, and demonic iconography. She made her living painting portraits of demons for occult clients, crafting amulets, and writing books on ritual magic. The demons were not a metaphor. They had names. They had handlers. And they had rules - including one she didn't understand until much later: she was never, under any circumstances, allowed to read the Bible. But that's not where the story ends. In this episode of The Head and the Heel, Erika - founder of Shire Skincare - shares the full testimony: how a ritual involving the Psalms cracked open the door, how the Holy Spirit met her in the middle of a painting of Christ in agony, how she and her husband smashed 20 years of occult art and books into a dumpster in one night, and how God took everything the enemy used her for and turned it into a business, a ministry, and a baby she didn't think she could have. This is one of the most remarkable testimonies of spiritual warfare, redemption, and the unstoppable reach of Christ you will ever hear. In this episode we talk about: - Being visited by demons as a child and making an agreement with them to protect her family - How giving in to demons is the inversion of surrendering to Christ - Working as a demonic iconographer - making paintings and amulets for Satanic cults - How demons forbade her from reading the Bible but encouraged her to read every other religious text - Reading the Psalms during a black magic ritual and not being able to stop - Feeling compassion for Christ while painting him in agony - and what that broke open - She and her husband smashing an entire occult art collection and rare book library into a dumpster - The no man's land of no longer being a Satanist but not yet being a Christian - and why that was spiritually dangerous - How God gave her a skincare business built on biblical ingredients to get her out of making demonic art - Getting pregnant at 37 after years of not wanting children - and how God moved her husband first - Why becoming a Christian was easier for her as a former Satanist than for someone with no spiritual background - What to do if you feel too far gone - and why that thought is not yours Key Scriptures: Genesis 3:15 | Revelation 12:11 | James 4:7 | John 8:44 Connect with Erika: Instagram: instagram.com/shireskincare Website: shireskincare.com Connect with The Head and the Heel: Instagram: @theheadandtheheel Subscribe on Apple Podcasts & Spotify Watch full episodes on YouTube The Head and the Heel is a Christian testimony podcast rooted in Genesis 3:15 - the first gospel promise that though the serpent would bruise the heel, Christ would crush the serpent's head.

    The Girl Who Wasn't Supposed to Exist Who God Made on Purpose | Chynna Cochran (EP 02)

    Chynna Cochran grew up not knowing who her father was, being blamed for her mother's three divorces, and told by a sibling at age eight that she could have - and should have - been aborted. She spent her childhood passed between homes, starving for identity, and building a version of herself that could survive without belonging anywhere. But that's not where the story ends. In this episode of The Head and the Heel, Chynna - founder of faith-based jewelry brand Natan - shares the full testimony: the identity built on lies, the hunger that drove her to read the Bible cover to cover before she even believed it, and the night in a cottage on a Baptist college campus when the Holy Spirit filled her from her head to her toe and she threw her TV in a dumpster and never looked back. This is a conversation about being fearfully and wonderfully made even when no one around you believed it - and what happens when a girl who wasn't supposed to exist finds out she was made on purpose, with purpose, by the God of the universe who calls himself her Father. In this episode we talk about: - Growing up not knowing who her father was and being blamed for things she didn't understand - Being told at age 8 that she could have been aborted - and how that lit a fire for the pro-life movement - Reading the Bible cover to cover multiple times as a child before coming to faith - The prayer meeting in a college cottage that changed everything - How she threw out her TV, her CDs, her clothes - immediately, the same night - Being compared to Paul: from the most worldly girl on campus to praying over cancer and broken bones - An unexpected parking lot encounter with her mom years later - and the healing God created in that moment - What she would say to any woman who has had an abortion and is still carrying shame - How founding Natan became an extension of her testimony and her ministry Key Scriptures: Genesis 3:15 | Revelation 12:11 | Psalm 139:14 | Matthew 5:6 | Hebrews 4:12 Connect with Chynna: http://instagram.com/natan.gives Website: natangives.com Connect with The Head and the Heel: Instagram: @theheadandtheheel Subscribe on Apple Podcasts & Spotify Watch full episodes on YouTube The Head and the Heel is a Christian testimony podcast rooted in Genesis 3:15 - the first gospel promise that though the serpent would bruise the heel, Christ would crush the serpent's head.

As a hairstylist and salon owner in Oregon, Lindsey defied government lockdown orders and reopened her business.

But that's not where the story ends. In this episode of The Head and the Heel, Lindsey - now known as the Patriot Barbie - shares the full testimony: the drug addiction, the abusive relationship, the abortion, the shame she carried for years, and how God used the most painful and public season of her life to give her a platform, a purpose, and a ministry she never could have planned for herself. This is a conversation about identity, spiritual warfare, redemption, and what it looks like to trust God when everything has already been taken. In this episode we talk about: - Who Lindsey is according to Jesus - Her years of addiction, dancing, and an abusive relationship - The abortion she carried in silence - and the healing that followed - Why she reopened her salon against the government in 2020 - How Antifa targeted her and cancel culture tried to destroy her - Why the enemy's tactics during COVID looked exactly like her abusive relationship - How God redeemed the name "Patriot Barbie" - and gave her a half-million-follower ministry - What she believes God is preparing her for next Key Scriptures: Romans 8:28 | Revelation 12:11 | Genesis 3:15 Connect with Lindsey: Website: thepatriotbarbie.com Instagram: @the.patriot.barbie Connect with The Head and the Heel: Instagram: @theheadandtheheel Subscribe on Apple Podcasts & Spotify Watch full episodes on YouTube The Head and the Heel is a Christian testimony podcast rooted in Genesis 3:15 - the first gospel promise that though the serpent would bruise the heel, Christ would crush the serpent's head.
