In this episode of the Authority On Demand Podcast, hosted by Danielle Hutchinson, Kristen Wambach shares her journey of faith, ministry, writing, and spiritual discovery.
Kristen grew up in Oregon’s Willamette Valley and later became an ordained pastor, author, podcast host, and CEO. After experiencing a deeper transformation in her relationship with Jesus, she began asking difficult questions about her faith and exploring what she had been taught. Through years of prayer, journaling, and personal encounters, she developed a stronger understanding of how God speaks and works in her life.
Kristen describes herself as an “investigative journalist of the spirit” because she has spent more than 30 years documenting her spiritual experiences. She explains how writing down what she hears, feels, and learns helps her recognize patterns, remember important details, and better understand the message she is being given.
The conversation also focuses on her newest book, How Good Is God? Coaching Church Beyond the Gates of Hell to Truly Experience Heaven. Kristen explains how the book is structured around four gates: hell, the pew, the pulpit, and heaven. She also shares the spiritual experiences that influenced the book, including her reflections on Jesus’ time in the tomb and the meaning of the folded and unfolded burial linens.
Kristen discusses how personal experience can strengthen authority and credibility. Rather than simply telling people what to believe, she believes leaders can help others by guiding them toward their own experiences and understanding. She shares a powerful story about helping a woman revisit her trauma through prayer and discover that she was not alone in what she had experienced.
The episode also explores Kristen’s writing process. Her newest book is more than 400 pages and grew from years of journals, personal insights, and spiritual experiences. She explains how staying focused on the message helped her continue writing, even when the process became overwhelming.
Key Takeaways:
Kristen’s story is a reminder that authority is not only about what we know. It is also about what we have experienced, what we have learned, and how willing we are to use that experience to help others.

On this inspiring episode of the Authority On Demand Podcast (formerly Authors On Mission Podcast), host Danielle Hutchinson sits down with S.R. Fabrico (Stacy Rowe)—author, marketing professional, coach, mentor, and longtime member of the All-Star Cheer community—to explore how writing, storytelling, and consistency can build lasting authority.
Stacy shares one of her greatest challenges: publishing her first novel. After years of work, she had to overcome the fear of putting her manuscript in front of readers. The midnight release became a “no turning back” moment that taught her publishing is only the beginning. Authors must continue marketing, promoting, and building their brand to stay visible.
Her writing process varies by genre. Novels allow creative freedom, while Pioneers of All-Star Cheer required rigorous research. Stacy conducted over 100 interviews to document the sport’s history and honor its pioneers. The book, which won a 2026 Independent Press Award, combines a chronological history with personal stories, ensuring future generations understand the sport’s evolution.
Recognition for the book felt especially meaningful because it honored the entire All-Star Cheer community. Stacy also highlights how the sport is often misunderstood—far beyond “pom poms and megaphones,” it demands dedication, athleticism, and advanced skills. With the launch of the Pro Cheerleague, athletes now have a professional path beyond college.
Her author journey also led to SRF Creations, where she helps writers with branding, websites, and marketing strategy. She warns that many first-time authors mistakenly believe the work ends at publication. Instead, she advises having a post-publication plan and focusing on one marketing platform at a time to avoid overwhelm.
Upcoming projects include 10,000 Steps, a fiction story based on a true MS diagnosis, written to educate readers with input from specialists and patients. She’s also developing a new Bald Head Island romance/suspense trilogy and considering a second edition of Pioneers of All-Star Cheer to include more voices.
Her advice to aspiring authors: keep writing. The first draft doesn’t need to be perfect—it just needs to exist. Authority is built not by one book or award but through consistent effort, branding, and the courage to keep sharing your work.
