  • Episode 15 - Wine With Bailey Part 2
    Jul 3 2024
    The first rule of trauma club is you can't talk about trauma club... Join us for part 2 of this interview with Bailey as we dive a bit deeper into the waters of trauma, knowing God and following him. In this episode we talk about loss and how we can heal from loss and love those who we are called to be with in the middle of loss. If you haven't listened to Part 1 of the interview with Bailey, I suggest you pause and go back and listen to it. Jala and the boys are still up doing a training, so no Burma News in this episode.
    Enjoy - thanks for being with us.

  • Episode 14 - Wine With Bailey (Part 1)
    Jun 19 2024
    Join me for this special conversation with my friend Bailey! Not your typical JDS podcast, but a special two part series where I sit down over a glass or three of wine with my dear friend Bailey. She left behind the "American Dream" when she was twenty years old and moved (as a single woman) to the other side of the world. And not only that, but she moved to a war zone. Bailey has faced bombings, death, and many challenges as she's followed the call God put on her heart. I think her story is inspiring and I hope you will enjoy it too. Bailey has been a good friend of mine for the past eight years, and it's always a lot of laughs to sit down together and talk and have a glass of wine. Join us for part one of this series with Bailey.
