    Kristin Rogers - Broken Girl. Healed Woman!

    Join us as my guest Kristen Rogers shares her story of growing up broken, longing to fill a void in her life. She grew up in a non-Christian home but visited her Christian Aunt in North FL each summer & that's where she met Jesus. But at a young age, she turned to relationships, boys! She was trying to fill a hole in her heart with boys. Before she graduated high school, she had experienced more relationship trauma than most 30-year-old women; she was cheated on, physically abused, verbally abused, was threatened to be killed, had a controlling boyfriend, you name it, she had experienced it. That continued through high school. And then she was off to college & full rebellion set in. She started dabbling in drugs & was smoking a ton of pot. But she was still doing really well with her grades. Then one day, she got a phone call, her Aunt had been life-flighted. And she hit her knees, bargaining with God to save her aunt & if He did, she would follow him. So Kristin left school & flew down to help care for her Aunt. She stayed for a long time but then decided to move back to be with her parents. Through this, she started to seek Jesus more. She got a Bible, she started journaling. Then, her Senior year in college, her mom left her dad. At that point, that's when depression, anxiety, PTSD set in. Moving forward, she graduated& went out with some friends, and met her future husband.  Fast forward, they got married, and had a beautiful baby boy! There she was, 27 years old, standing at her bookshelf when she had an encounter with the Lord. Everything changed. God revealed that she add an approval addiction, she was a perfectionist, she was a self sabotager. Her story is truly inspiring!! If you don't feel beautiful right now, Jesus can make it beautiful! He turns ashes into beauty! Thank you to Kristin for sharing her story with us today. Scripture reference: Isaiah 61:3; Psalm 46:10, Psalm 139 Song reference: The Unmaking by Nicole Nordeman

    Sara Vogel - The Gift

    Join us as my returning guest Sara Vogel shares her story of truly being open to God's plan in her life & the life of a complete stranger. Two years ago, the thought popped in her head, "I wonder what it would take to donate an organ." Not thinking anything of it, she let it go. But the thought kept returning. Then the same year, in the summer of 2018 Sara saw a Facebook post; a young man in Cincinnati was looking for a kidney. Sara looked into how someone would know if they are a match & started taking steps of obedience.  Mounds of paperwork, bold test, and then the waiting. As she was going through the process, God gave her opportunity after opportunity to share the story of how God put this on her heart. So far, she was a match! Sara was then asked to come to Christ Hospital in Cincinnati for a full day of testing. More bloodwork, blood pressure monitoring, urinalysis, and much more. It was getting real & she was getting nervous!! Sara asked God to confirm that this was what HE wanted her to do. That same day, there was an update on the Facebook page. They hadn't posted in 4 months. The young man that needed a kidney was doing worse! He was now on dialysis 10 hours a day. They were pleading for people to get tested to see if they were a match. This was a sign for Sara that this was indeed God's plan. Then in January 2019 she got the call. She was approved & was a match! Surgery was scheduled for April 9, 2019.  They both went through surgery that day & the first question Sara asked "How is he?" He was great! All along, she just knew that God was going to make it all ok. She never doubted his providence! In August of 2019 Sara got to contact her kidney recipient! She wanted to tell him that God sent her for him!  Then in September she got to meet him & his family. What an amazing testimony of God's goodness, his faithfulness & his provision!
