    Up From the Ashes Episode 12 Guest: Aya Nickels

    God is within her, she will not fail. Psalm 46:5 This verse came to mind as I was laying in bed last night thinking about Aya Nickels, the young woman you are going to meet in this episode. God aligned our paths at a thrift store through a beautiful tattoo. The story behind Aya's body art is what led to this episode. As you'll hear, Aya, is still processing through her rocky upbringing but she wants to share her story to show others that they are never truly alone and there is someone who can redeem their pain.

    Welcome back to "Not by Sight, a place where you will always hear inspiring stories of faith and hope that are birthed out of difficult seasons - the valleys of life.

Amber Turnbow is a wife, a mother of 3, and a middle school special education teacher in the Atlanta area. I met Amber during french class in our senior year of high school and we became best friends. We had no idea how our paths would reconverge later in life through a shared health crisis. Thirteen years ago, when Amber's two oldest children were only 3 and 4 years old, she received a phone call that would upend the life that she knew. What she did with the worst news of her life is truly inspiring.

    Faith in the Valley of Racism Episode 7 Part 2/Guests: Shirlene Payne, Desiree Dubose, & Allie Thomas

    In light of the tension we are all living in right now, from the Coronavirus threat to protests over racism to political divisions, many of us are overwhelmed by the chaos. Complicating matters even further are the many voices on all of these issues. Some of us are uniting together and some of us are being driven further apart. In Part 2 of "Faith in the Valley of Racism", my goal is to unify us, not divide us. There is no political agenda here - only the act of standing up for what is right and true. On this episode, we're tackling how to confront racism in our interpersonal relationships and the church's role in racial reconciliation. My friends also discuss the changes they believe need to be made within the workplace, the education system and the criminal justice system to weed out racism.
