Everyday Miracles | Jesus, Christian Testimonies, Divine Encounters, Holy Spirit, Supernatural, Hope

Lou Lynn shares a medical crisis in which she became unconscious, heard Jesus tell her to go to the hospital, and experienced an "in-between" place she calls "the great white," filled with His love and peace. As she felt herself being pulled away, Jesus told her He would let her live to raise her children. She awoke with a pulse in the 20s, received a life-saving pacemaker on Good Friday, and later faced years of chronic decline, fainting, and multiple diagnoses while continuing adoptions and family life. Over time she describes spiritual gifts, visions, learning Scripture, renewed marriage commitment, and a worldview focused on spiritual warfare. She emphasizes contentment without complacency, stopping the chase for an "ever-elusive miracle," and trusting Jesus to use suffering while believing for healing.

Misty Phillip has many bullets on her resume. She has even had her photo displayed in Times Square, which is pretty amazing, but the thing I love most about her is her passion for championing others. Her testimony speaks powerfully to what God can do through our obedience and it's such a beautiful reminder that His timing is impeccable! Misty shares about God's timing in launching the Spark Christian Podcast Conference on Feb. 21–22, 2020—just weeks before the pandemic—equipping believers to keep sharing the gospel when churches shut down. She shares her background from working at Enron to homeschooling, then writing, speaking, podcasting, and creating Spark Media; she also wrote six books and an award-winning 2019 Bible study, The Struggle is Real, but So is God. She explains how God led her to transition in 2023 into her husband's tech consulting work in cybersecurity and AI, describing how AI is already embedded in daily tools (maps, photo editing, search, Netflix, Canva). Misty urges Christians to steward AI with discernment, noting bias from non-Christian worldviews, risks for kids (isolation, harmful answers), the need to verify outputs, and the importance of Scripture and the Holy Spirit amid deepfakes and cultural change. She distinguishes her books Upskill or Die and The Trojan Horse of the Digital Age, offers free resources on mistyphilip.com, and closes with prayer against fear and for wise, obedient kingdom impact.

Jamie Cashion recounts how, at 15, he became a volunteer firefighter in Joshua, Texas and on Feb. 24, 1984 was trapped in a 2,500-acre grass fire with 18-foot flames and 42-mph winds, burning for 38 seconds after trying to help rescue a stalled water-truck driver; he describes crying out to God, being guided to the last firefighter on scene, and being airlifted to Parkland with 36% third-degree burns. Doctors discussed amputating his fingers, but his paraplegic mother prayed and insisted otherwise. He was transferred to the Shriners Burn Institute, avoided amputation, endured brutal treatment, and later faced social stigma from masks and splints. Cashion became a deputy fire marshal and a lifelong martial artist approaching a 10th-degree black belt. He uses his scars and platform to teach, witness, and encourage burn victims and children worldwide, emphasizing hope, prayer, and God's timing. He closes with a prayer and shares jamiecashion.com and jamie.cashion@yahoo.

Patty Riddle Kirshner, a Nebraska pastor and evangelist, shares how her life changed when COVID swept through her church in August 2020. Patty spent 83 days in four hospitals, over four weeks in a coma, suffered paralysis from the neck down, and died briefly from cardiac arrest. During that moment, she describes being in heaven's "glory," overwhelmed by God's presence, seeing an unusual sky color and things that stunned her. God told her she could stay or return; she chose to come back because there was more work to do. After extensive rehabilitation, she recovered movement and a national news team welcomed her home. Tragically, she soon faced her husband Ronnie's glioblastoma diagnosis; he died in May 2021. Patty reflects on the anger, the grief, learning to live "in the moment," staying connected to community and church, starting the widows' group Embrace, and testifying that God remained faithful through suffering, loss, and renewed purpose. 00:00 A Glimpse of Glory 00:41 Meet Patty and Her Story 01:33 Life Before COVID 02:37 Symptoms and Denial 04:43 Hospitalization and Fear 07:20 Coma and Ventilator Fight 10:29 Heart Stops Heaven Visit 13:36 Choose to Stay or Go 14:48 Rehab Isolation and Fear 18:45 Recovery and Witnessing 20:41 Vision of Anointing 22:24 Husband's Fall and Diagnosis 24:17 Grief After Loss 25:58 Finding Hope Again 26:56 New Love And Calling 28:51 Hard Questions Anger 31:14 Staying In The Moment 33:22 Advice For Widows 36:20 Embrace Support Group 40:59 Knowing God Is Real 44:07 Haiti Prophetic Warning 45:20 Ministry Links And Prayer of blessing over listeners Patty's facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/p/Evangelist-Patty-Riddle-100081176667734/ Patty's Website: https://www.womenunitedministry.com/

After seven years of Everyday Miracles, I wanted to pause and reflect. In this episode, I'm sharing a very honest prayer I brought before the Lord...and the questions I'm asking Him about what comes next. Is it time to shut the door?

Thank you to every guest, every listener, and most of all, to GOD--who has carried this far beyond anything I could have imagined. I am not the same person that started this show. What has been shared here has changed me, drawn me closer to a God I thought I knew, but now see in a whole different light.

God is so much bigger, more loving, more powerful, more present, and more real than I could have ever imagined. His Word is more alive to me now than ever. I have learned that FULL surrender to Him (while terrifying) paired with obedience is the way to open the door to a whole new revelation and experience with Him! Don't hold back from Him. He is worth more than what we can lay at His feet!

This world may feel like a dumpster fire (no, these notes are not AI generated;), but GOD IS STILL MOVING! He is still on the throne! He is coming back soon and I can hardly wait to meet Him! Turn to Him today! Much love, Julie

Why miracles matter:

Acts 2:22 "Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know-"

John 21:25

"Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written."

Revelation 12:11

"And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death."

In this compelling episode, Mike McKinsey returns to share his 3 HOUR visit with Jesus after a profound near-death experience (NDE).
