While many have heard of D. L. Moody—the world-famous evangelist who shook two continents for Christ—few know the story of the woman who shaped him behind the scenes: his mother, Betsy Moody.
In this episode, Tracie and Abigail explore the remarkable life of a mother who quietly built a legacy of faith. Left a widow with nine young children, Betsy faced hardship and poverty, yet never lost her joyful spirit or her unwavering love for her family. Her strength, humility, and devotion laid the foundation for her son’s powerful ministry. And in a surprising twist, it was her own son’s preaching that led her to place her trust in Christ later in life. Betsy's story is one of enduring love, spiritual courage, and the kind of quiet faithfulness that truly changes the world—one child at a time.
