In this episode, I share how I prayed for a testimony for my friend Kimberley Bennett, not knowing what the day had in store. I later learned she was booked on a standby flight, two days delayed and unsure if she’d make it. But I kept believing, praying, and encouraging her to take the next step. What happened next was a powerful reminder of the faith of friends.

In this episode, I sit down with my prayer partner Margaret Smith to reflect on an experience that tested both my nerves and my faith. She encouraged me to travel four hours away to retake my driving test—then sat in the backseat, praying for me the entire time.
