New episodes are released every Tuesday.

Ronda Paulson: Kids Should Never Sleep in Offices (Pt 1)
When Ronda Paulson found out that kids entering foster care slept in government offices while they waited to be placed, she got mad at God and heard ‘These are my children, what are you going to do?’ What Ronda did is build a beautiful home to welcome them into and there's now 22 of these Isaiah 117 Houses around the country. And they've loved on over 5,000 kids on what is often the worst day of their lives.

Customer Reviews
Real and Relatable
Bill brings a sizable dose of reality to a society that wants to believe it takes governmental intervention to resolve issues people face daily. The truth is that normal folks can and do impact the world in extraordinary ways. These stories relate to our own lives and help us see that we are not alone and we CAN impact our world for good.
Stop talking over your guests!
I love the show. I love the idea of the show. However, I’m on episode 3 and the host is constantly talking over his guests and telling his own stories. Stop it!
Please support Bill’s ministry
