Bloom Talks COTR Bloom

From Nigeria to New York and Virginia...then all the way to Lubbock...follow along with us on the new Bloom Talks podcast as we hear Ngozi's story of God's goodness and mercy following after her all the days of her life. Dr. Nagozi Eboh is both a pediatrician and professor her in Lubbock who attends our North Campus. We are glued to our seats as she shared her story of how God brought deliverance after the storm in her family's life after their move to Lubbock.

Get the Kleenex ready, because Ruth Menefee shares parts of her story that reminds us God's love never fails! This was one of those holy moments as she shares about heart ache, God answering questions, and how to walk in forgiveness when pain hits deep.

Listen in and Yvette Lucio shares about finding God when she was looking for a boy, finding healing from shame, and how she's learned to say yes to God's big plans when they don't look like what she expected!

What a fun conversation we have with Jodi Cowles about cross-cultural living and God using creativity to help us process questions and pain. Jodi is an American author who spent eight years living (and mostly loving) life with her husband and daughter in Istanbul, Turkey. Spending more than half her adult life living and working in seven different countries, her time abroad expanded her vision of the world and allowed her to collect stories along the way. Armed with an endless supply of culture-clashing mishaps, inappropriate marriage proposals, and language barrier misfires, Jodi's writing gets to the heart of the matter: the human connection present in every country and culture.
