Bell Shoals Women

This episode features a conversation with Samantha Staton. Samantha knew she was born to be a professional singer. She worked tirelessly throughout her school years as well as college years training to be the very best. Yet, audition after audition heard the dreaded "No". It seemed no matter how hard she worked, howe much she gave up, nothing but disappointment came her way. Once Samantha started to allow God to control the plans He had for her life, then, and only then, did she find the satisfaction she was seeking. Samantha's story is both raw and honest. She dealt with selfishness as well as the desire to get her way. Listen and see how God pursued her along the way and became her place of peace among life's disappointments.

This episode features a conversation with Nathania Mayers. Nathania and I discuss the difference between religion and relationship.

Nathania and I also discuss how her family moved here from the Cayman Islands with financial resources and the security of having full time employment, to loosing almost everything once they arrived in the States due to Covid. Listen to be encouraged how she found Jesus to be the source of all she needed and how He lovingly provided all along the way. Her journey has been amazing!
