    Granny's Rocking Chair, Abuse, & Testing God: Wendy's Story

    As a little girl, Wendy Eaton grew up bouncing between two alcoholic, abusive homes after her parents divorced. Her older brothers tried to protect her—until they started falling into the same cycle. The one steady light was her Granny, who opened a book and read to her something that would change her forever. Wendy decided right then she wanted to be like that tree planted by streams of water. The move from California to Oklahoma Wendy and her husband, Allan made in 2012 is a whole story in itself—she said no without even praying, then God started showing up everywhere until she finally started listening. Today she’s a chain-breaker and legacy-maker who prays about everything, has a prayer room where she mostly just listens, and is intentional about making sure the next generation actually knows The Lord. Listen in as Wendy shares how God kept proving His faithfulness even while she was testing Him the whole way. Are you ready to meet this Man our guest can’t stop talking about?

    Stolen Innocence, Teen Pregnancy, Longing for Home: Gena's Story

    There are very few memories of my childhood and the ones I do have are tainted with moments of molestation and alcohol abuse. The adults in my life struggled to make positive choices for our family. Therefore, it was no surprise I ended up like the statics said I would…pregnant at 16, again at 18, and divorced by 21. But that's not where my story ends. As the host of this show, I ask my guests every week to be vulnerable and transparent. This week I learned just how hard that is to do. I can't thank my two dearest friends, Amelia (episode 15) and Stephanie (episode 9) enough for walking along side me while I sat in the hot seat today.  It's my prayer that you are as blessed from our time together as I was.

    Failed Family Business?: Jacklin's Story

    "Go into business with your family!", they say. "It'll be fun!", they say. And most of the time, it is, but sometimes it's not always pretty…or successful.  Jacklin's love story started with her middle school sweetheart – a classic tale of rekindled love after graduation. They were all in, ready to tackle life together, and the twist? They jumped headfirst into her father-in-law's brand-new business venture. Talk about excitement! Thanks to the Great Recession of 2008 they found themselves in a financial funk. And that was just the opening act. During their second decade of business is when things really got ugly and hard decisions had to be made. In our chat, Jacklin didn't sugarcoat it, saying, "Most marriages wouldn't have survived this." Frankly, I couldn't agree more. It takes a special kind of grit to weather such storms, and most people would've thrown in the towel years earlier. And if that wasn't enough, crippling anxiety and the heart-wrenching loss of several family members continued to darken their doorstep. You'd think that's a recipe for disaster, right? But life can be surprising. Join us as Jacklin spills the beans on her incredible journey – a story of resilience, love, and the astonishing ability to lean into her faith to face the worst and still come out swinging.

    God is Mean: Matt's Story

    Hearing phrases like "it was God's idea" or " it was time for him to go" after the death of his uncle scared young 9-year-old Matt. It caused him to have an unhealthy fear of God and His authority. According to Matt's perception, people died, and God did it. As Matt grew older, his fear of God continued to affect him emotionally and mentally. He felt trapped in a cycle of anxiety, constantly worrying about whether he was doing enough to please God and avoid His supposed wrath. This fear had a profound impact on his life, leading to feelings of guilt, inadequacy, and a constant need for validation. How could he keep hearing "God is good" all the time when all Matt could see was how mean He was. Matt spent years doing all the good things he could to please God and stay in His good graces. Until he figured out he could never do enough 'good' to please God. Listen in as Matt finds undiluted love, and freedom from fear & anxiety.   Personalized Bible Feel free to reach out to Matt via email at ckc8379@yahoo.com Are you ready to meet this man our guest can’t stop talking about?

    Meth, Abuse, & A Lost Daughter: Barb's Story

    As Barb's mom continued to speak God's promises over her, Barb's rebellious spirit grew stronger. Despite her knowledge that she could always trust in God, her defiance led her down a path of choices that some believed she could never recover from. Pregnant at 16 and a mom by 17, she was a high school drop out in an abusive relationship, smoking weed, and eventually in jail by the age of 19. Even when she attempted to "do the right thing” Barb seemed to be constantly stumbling. Her journey took her through prerequisite classes for nursing school, only to face rejection, and later expulsion from Respiratory Therapist school.    Frustrated and discouraged, Barb's rebellious personality drove her deeper into the clutches of addiction, particularly to her “drug of choice” meth. Quickly, Barb ended up in a downward spiral of increased IV drug use, more drug-related charges, and more time spent behind bars. After a 13-year addiction, Barb found herself under a highway bridge in an encounter with a man that would alter the course of her destiny forever. Listen in to this episode and witness the awe-inspiring journey of one woman's redemption and transformation through one man’s relentless pursuit of her.
