• Jesus Wept | Heather Patterson
    Jul 2 2024

    Join Heather as she takes a deeper look into John 11:35, “Jesus wept.” Inspired by her oldest son’s favorite Bible verse, Heather shares why the shortest verse in the Bible delivers immeasurable comfort during life’s trials and tribulations. A beautiful verse where tears become a powerful bond of humanity between Jesus and those he died to save.

    As you listen, ask yourself: How often do I take the time to remember Jesus as a human being? How often do I take into consideration that the One who died to save me has the deepest compassion and empathy for every difficult and heart-breaking situation I face on this earth because He faced these earthly trials too? How often do I make it a point to remember that, "Jesus gets me."?

  • God, The Master Artist, Who Paints A Way | Heather Patterson & Kristin Wyatt
    Jun 4 2024

    Join Heather and her beautifully talented friend, Kristin Wyatt, as Kristin shares how art has become her testimony and witness of God's faithfulness. A life molded with grace and patterned by faith, Kristin shares how she overcame a difficult and unforeseen divorce, survived becoming a single mother of three (3), and, ultimately, took the healing gifts of art and the LORD to places she would have never dreamed. You absolutely don't want to miss this inspirational episode!

    As you listen, ask yourself: Is there something that God has been telling you to do, but you've been too scared to move forward with? Is there something that you feel God is telling you, but you aren't sure what it means and if it means anything at all? Is there something that you know you should be doing, but you haven't moved forward in faith with the confidence that God will make a way? If you answered, "Yes" to any of the aforementioned, spend time in prayer asking God to make His all-knowing voice clear. Ask God to feed your faith with His strength and fill you with the peace of certainty that He will provide.

  • Landing in the Faithful Net of Our God | Heather Patterson & Rebekah Fowlkes
    May 21 2024

    Join Heather and her friend (that you'll want to call your very own), Rebekah Fowlkes, in a heart-to-heart about the LORD's faithfulness to catch us when tribulations push us off the tightrope of life. Rebekah talks candidly about the major events of her life where God continued to let His steadfastness shine. From divorce to being a single mother of three to finding love again, she shares a beautiful message: When everything sacred to you seems to be breaking down, God will, most definitely, break through to catch you.

    As you listen, ask yourself: When facing a difficult trial, are you 100% confident in God's grace and faithfulness? Do you feel absolutely sure that the LORD has a plan outside of the pain? If not, ask yourself why you feel that way and be transparent with God...He can handle your doubt. Then, in prayer, ask God to remove the doubt and replace it with a confidence that can only come from Him.

    Join Heather and her long-time friend, Kathryn Flores, in a conversation about the LORD's cleansing of us through the trials and tribulations of life. Kathryn shares her journey through divorce while simultaneously facing the likelihood that she would never walk again. A long and painful journey that ultimately led her to discover where her true strength comes from.
