In 1974, Susan Bosma was a young mother preparing for surgery. She attended church, taught Sunday school, and knew about Jesus—but she did not yet know Him personally.

Confronted with the possibility of death, Susan offered God a startlingly honest prayer:

“If You’re there, I don’t believe it. And if I die and go to hell, at least I’ll have the satisfaction of telling You I couldn’t find You. You’ll have to find me.”

During surgery, Susan says she died and found herself outside her body, traveling through a spiritual realm she could not understand. Then she encountered Jesus—and heard words that would shape the rest of her life.

In this powerful conversation, Susan recounts what she experienced, how she came to recognize Jesus as Savior, and why she believes she was sent back as a messenger. Now known affectionately as Gospel Granny, Susan has spent more than five decades studying Scripture and sharing the saving grace of Jesus with others.

Kathleen and Susan also discuss:

• The difference between knowing about Jesus and knowing Him personally

• Susan’s extraordinary encounter during surgery

• Why supernatural experiences must be tested against Scripture

• The free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ

• Believing without seeing

• How the Holy Spirit leads and teaches believers

• What it means to exchange self-reliance for God-reliance

• The question that has carried Susan through difficult seasons: “God, what’s higher in this?”

• Why it is never too late to answer God’s call

If you have ever wondered whether God sees you, whether Jesus is truly reaching for you, or whether there is hope beyond this present life, Susan’s testimony offers a clear invitation: turn toward Him. You do not have to understand everything before you say yes.

As Susan reminds us:

“There is so much to know about God and the goodness of God in your life. It’s the best adventure you’ll ever take.”

What if surrender is not the loss of your freedom—but the doorway into it?

Many of us hear the word surrender and imagine resignation, deprivation, or the erasure of everything that matters to us. But biblical surrender is not giving up. It is giving over. It is releasing the exhausting burden of self-rule and yielding to the leadership of the Spirit of God.

In this episode, Kathleen explores why we can belong to Christ and still feel stressed, depleted, restricted, or spiritually blocked. Like a branch disconnected from the vine, a fish outside the water, or a wire separated from its power source, we cannot produce the life of God through self-reliance. We were created to live connected to Him.

Jesus did not come merely to improve our self-directed lives. He came to lead us out of slavery and into abundant life. When the natural mind, will, and emotions occupy the throne, we carry burdens we were never designed to carry. But when we yield to the Spirit, His life begins to flow through us—bringing love, joy, peace, strength, direction, and freedom.

This episode lays the foundation for an upcoming series examining the specific things we carry that can obstruct that flow, including control, fear, unforgiveness, false identities, and the stories we refuse to release.

Surrender is not dying to everything good. It is dying to the wrong life so that the life of Christ can become fully alive in us.

In this episode:

• Why surrender is “giving over,” not giving up

• The relationship between self-reliance and spiritual exhaustion

• What it means to live by the Spirit instead of the natural mind

• How control is often rooted in fear

• Why God’s boundaries lead to freedom rather than confinement

• The branch, the fish, and the live wire: three pictures of spiritual dependence

• How laying down spiritual weight allows living water to flow

• A simple invitation to identify and surrender whatever is blocking abundant life

Key Scriptures: John 10:10; John 8:31–32; John 15:5; Romans 7–8; Galatians 5:16; 2 Corinthians 3:17; Ephesians 1:13–14; 2 Peter 1:3; Jonah 2:8; Matthew 16:25; Philippians 3:8–9; Hebrews 12:1; Galatians 5:1.

Healed to Heal is where you come to receive your healing—and then carry that healing to the world.

What happens when one encounter with Jesus changes the entire trajectory of a life?

Long before Dr. James Torkildson became a clinical psychologist, professor, author, speaker, and podcast host, he was a lonely boy growing up in a home affected by alcoholism. By his teenage years, he had left school and entered a life of rebellion.

Then, while serving in the Army in Germany, he felt drawn into a small chapel where revival meetings were taking place. A man met him at the door and asked one simple question: “Do you know Jesus?”

Dr. T answered, “No—but I want to.”

What followed was not merely self-improvement. It was transformation from the inside out. His desires, vision, and sense of purpose changed. The young man who had left school would eventually earn degrees in psychology and counseling and devote his life to helping others.

In this powerful conversation, Kathleen and Dr. T explore the difference between changing behavior and being genuinely transformed through Christ. They discuss renewing the mind, strengthening the spirit, recognizing deception, and building a biblical foundation that remains steady in a changing culture.

Dr. T also offers a freeing perspective on failure: it should become a classroom rather than a courtroom. Our mistakes do not have to become permanent verdicts over our lives. When we take ownership of them and surrender them to God, He can use them to teach us, mature us, and move us forward.

For anyone carrying regret, shame, perfectionism, or fear about the future, this episode offers a powerful reminder: your past is gone, but your future is not yet written. You do not have to control every outcome. You are responsible for your willingness, obedience, and faithful effort. God is the master of outcomes.

IN THIS EPISODE:

• The chapel encounter that transformed Dr. T’s life

• Self-improvement versus spiritual transformation

• How renewing the mind changes what we see as possible

• Why grace and personal responsibility belong together

• Treating failure as a classroom rather than a courtroom

• Scripture as the Creator’s instruction for the whole person

• Strengthening and nourishing the spirit

• Why deception is often wrapped in something partly true

• The relationship between truth, love, freedom, and discernment

• Escaping shame, accusation, and perfectionism

• Answering your individual, God-given calling

• Why God is the master of outcomes

• The power of the Holy Spirit within every believer

Dr. T’s story is living proof that no past is beyond the transforming power of God. The same Spirit who raised Christ from the dead lives in you—and your voice, your calling, and your faithful “yes” matter.

If you have listened to this podcast for any length of time, you have heard Kathleen talk about the power of words. But this episode goes deeper—because changing your words is not merely a matter of trying harder to sound positive. Jesus said that the mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart. Our words reveal what has been filling us, what we have accepted as truth, and which voices we have allowed to interpret our lives, our futures, and even our bodies.

In this episode, Kathleen explores the difference between acknowledging what is happening in the natural realm and allowing it to become the highest authority. Abraham faced the condition of his body, but he refused to let that condition overrule what God had promised. In the same way, faith does not require us to deny a symptom, diagnosis, or fearful report. It calls us to decide which voice will have the final word.

You will also learn why Scripture describes some words as “unwholesome”—words that carry decay—and calls us instead to speak words that build, strengthen, and give grace to those who hear them. Our words can reinforce fear and hopelessness, or they can become vessels of life, courage, healing, and truth.

This is not a message about fearing every imperfect sentence or attempting to maintain a flawless confession. It is an invitation to let the Holy Spirit go beneath the words to the root—exposing fear, breaking old agreements, renewing the mind, and filling the heart so completely with God’s truth that life begins to flow naturally from its overflow.

In this episode:

Why your words reveal what is filling your heart

The difference between policing your mouth and transforming your heart

How negative words can spread discouragement and decay

Why acknowledging a physical condition is not the same as agreeing with it

What Abraham teaches us about seen circumstances and unseen promises

How to identify and break agreement with fear, rejection, and hopelessness

Why a diagnosis does not have the authority to define your future

How your words can build faith, restore courage, and impart grace

The Holy Spirit’s role in changing what flows from your heart and mouth

How to speak life over your family, your future, and your body

Your symptoms may be real, and a diagnosis may appear in your medical record—but neither is written above the name of Jesus. Let God renew your heart until His truth becomes more settled within you than the voice of fear.

This is where you come to receive your healing—and then carry that healing to the world. Healed to heal.

What happens when trauma runs so deep that healing seems impossible?

In this powerful and hope-filled episode of Healed to Heal, Kathleen Johnson sits down with author, speaker, trauma survivor, and former physician assistant Carolyn Sherrow. Carolyn shares her journey through dissociation and the long, layer-by-layer process of allowing God’s truth and presence to reach places that had remained hidden for years.

Carolyn explains how unexplained physical symptoms first led her toward counseling, how the mind can protect itself when an experience is too overwhelming to process, and how compassionate support and prayer helped her begin replacing deeply rooted lies with truth. Her story is not about being defined by trauma. It is about discovering that what happened to you is not who you are—and that no place within us is beyond the healing reach of Jesus.

Together, Kathleen and Carolyn explore:

• How unresolved trauma can continue affecting our emotions, beliefs, identity, and physical reactions

• What dissociation is and how it can function as a form of protection

• Why healing often unfolds gradually, one layer at a time

• How false beliefs formed through pain can be replaced with God’s truth

• Why healing does not always require reliving every traumatic detail

• How Carolyn recognized real progress through changes in her everyday reactions

• The importance of compassionate counseling, prayer, and safe community

• How to support someone in pain without being afraid of their darkness

• Why Carolyn turned her testimony into the memoir My Personal Holocaust

If you have ever wondered whether a wound could be too deep, a history too complicated, or a mind too fractured for restoration, Carolyn’s testimony offers a resounding message of hope: darkness does not get the final word.

CONTENT NOTE

This episode includes discussion of childhood trauma, abuse, dissociation, and recovered memories. Please listen with care.

What happens when God breaks through the darkness at the very moment you have nearly given up hope?

At sixteen years old, Tom Snow was facing an enormous cancerous tumor, overwhelming guilt, family trauma, and a growing belief that his life would soon be over. Although he had grown up around church, he did not yet know the nearness of God for himself. Then an extraordinary encounter changed the direction of his life.

In this deeply personal conversation, Tom shares how he encountered the unmistakable love of God, wandered through a painful season of doubt and rebellion, and eventually discovered that the Holy Spirit had never abandoned him. He also recounts the revelation that awakened his faith for healing and the astonishing disappearance of a rock-hard tumor that had grown larger than a football.

But physical healing was not the end of Tom’s journey. Years later, God led him into an even deeper freedom through the decision to forgive his father and then forgive himself.

After more than fifty years of walking with the Lord, Tom’s central message is simple but powerful: we are not meant to live by formulas, fear, or secondhand faith. We are invited to know God, hear His voice, remain grounded in His Word, and allow His Spirit to lead us through every part of life.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Tom’s remarkable encounter with God as a teenager

• The doubt and deception that nearly destroyed him

• How the Holy Spirit broke through years of anger, guilt, and shame

• The revelation that changed Tom’s understanding of healing

• His testimony of a massive tumor disappearing

• Why forgiveness is a choice rather than a feeling

• The freedom Tom experienced when he forgave his father and himself

• Learning to recognize and follow the voice of the Holy Spirit

• Why the Word of God and the peace of God are essential anchors

• What it means to walk in God’s authority rather than rely on formulas

• How believers can remain peaceful in the center of life’s storms

When a frightening diagnosis arrives, it is natural to start searching, analyzing, studying statistics, retelling every detail, and imagining what might happen next. But without realizing it, we can spend hours magnifying the problem and only minutes focusing on the promise.

In this powerful solo episode, Kathleen Johnson shares what to do after a diagnosis or troubling health report, and what we must learn to avoid if we want to protect our faith, peace, and inner world.

This is not about denying symptoms, rejecting medical care, or blaming anyone for being sick. It is about divine focus. A diagnosis may provide important information, but it is not your identity, your master, or the final word over your life.

Kathleen explores the remarkable connection between expectation and the body, including the placebo and nocebo effects, the impact of chronic fear on the nervous system, and why an imagined catastrophe can create a physical response before anything has actually happened. She also turns to the biblical account of the twelve spies, who all saw the same giants but returned with two very different reports. Joshua and Caleb did not deny the giants. They simply refused to make the giants bigger than God.

In this episode, you will learn how to:

• Receive necessary medical information without allowing it to consume your attention

• Stop identifying yourself with a diagnosis

• Recognize when research has become fear-filled rehearsal

• Protect your conversations, words, and imagination

• Replace frightening inner pictures with a vision of healing and life

• Choose people who will come into agreement with God’s promises

• Calm your nervous system and help your body return to peace

• Feed your faith instead of trying to force it

Your symptoms may be loud, but they are not God. The report may describe what is visible right now, but it does not get to write the ending.

You are always magnifying something. The question is, what will fill your field of vision?

What if every time you took communion, you were sitting before a provision for healing without realizing it was there?

Most Christians have been taught clearly and powerfully about the blood of Jesus, and thank God for the blood. We understand that His blood was shed for the forgiveness of sins, that it established the new covenant, and that through it we have been cleansed, redeemed, and reconciled to God.

But what about His body?

Jesus gave His disciples two elements: the bread and the cup. One sacrifice. One Savior. One finished work. But the blood was shed, and the body was given. If we recognize only the blood, are we receiving only part of what Jesus told us to remember?

For most of my life, I read Paul’s warning about failing to “discern the Lord’s body” without understanding what it meant. Why would Paul connect that failure with weakness, sickness, and even premature death? What could communion possibly have to do with physical healing?

It was only when I began seeking healing for myself and studying the ministries of T. L. Osborn, F. F. Bosworth, and others who helped thousands receive healing that this passage finally came alive. They saw a truth hidden in plain sight throughout Scripture: the sacrifice of Jesus contains provision for the whole person.

Isaiah declared that Jesus bore our sicknesses, carried our pains, and was wounded for our transgressions. Matthew explicitly connects Isaiah’s prophecy to the physical healings Jesus performed. Peter tells us that Christ bore our sins “in His own body on the tree” and that “by His stripes you were healed.” Psalm 103 places both benefits side by side: He forgives all our iniquities and heals all our diseases.

Forgiveness and healing. The blood and the body. The whole table.

In this episode, we explore what it truly means to discern the Lord’s body and why our understanding matters. Faith cannot knowingly receive a provision it has never been taught exists. As T. L. Osborn explained, if believers had been taught about healing as positively as they have been taught about salvation, they would believe for healing in the same way they believe for regeneration.

Communion is not an empty ritual or a funeral service for a Jesus who remains in the grave. It is the proclamation of a finished, victorious work. The elements are not magic, but they place before us something real: the blood of the new covenant and the body in which Jesus bore our sins, sicknesses, infirmities, and pains.

The next time you come to the communion table, do not rush past the bread. Stop. Look at it. Remember what Jesus bore in His body for yours. Honor the blood by receiving forgiveness, and honor the body by discerning the healing provision Christ purchased for you.

The blood was shed for you.
The body was given for you.
Do not remember one and forget the other.

What if some of the biggest moments of God's faithfulness happened long before you ever recognized His hand?

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with David Leadbetter, host of the Crazy Amazing God Stories podcast, to hear one of the most remarkable testimonies I've encountered. David shares how a life that had wandered far from God—filled with pride, drugs, and self-destruction—was interrupted by an unmistakable act of divine intervention that ultimately saved him from making a tragic decision.

Years later, after encountering the Holy Spirit in a life-changing way, David realized that what once seemed like a strange coincidence was actually God's loving protection all along.

But this conversation is about much more than one incredible story.

Together we explore how God continues to pursue every one of us, how we learn to recognize the voice of the Holy Spirit, why spending daily time in God's Word changes everything, and why testimonies are one of the greatest faith-builders we have.

In this episode we discuss:

• David's dramatic testimony of God's intervention before he knew Christ
• How the Holy Spirit transformed his life years later
• Learning to recognize God's voice through Scripture and obedience
• Why no one is ever too far gone for God's grace
• The life-changing power of reading the Bible every day
• Why testimonies strengthen faith and awaken expectancy
• The inspiration behind the Crazy Amazing God Stories podcast
• Living a Spirit-led life instead of relying on ourselves

If you've ever wondered whether God is still speaking... whether He still intervenes... or whether you've gone too far for His grace, this conversation is for you.

Thank you for listening! If this episode encouraged you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs hope today.

What if the greatest obstacle to experiencing God's promises isn't God's willingness...but who is leading your life?

Many believers genuinely love Jesus, yet continue living frustrated, fearful, anxious, or stuck. Scripture tells us that God's divine power has already given us everything we need for life and godliness, so why is there often such a gap between His promises and our experience?

In this episode, Kathleen explores one of the most transformative truths she has discovered through years of studying healing, Scripture, and the lives of people who experienced remarkable breakthroughs.

The issue isn't simply having more faith.

The issue is learning to let the Spirit rule.

In this episode you'll discover:

• Why every challenge presents us with two competing reports: the report of our senses and the report of God's Word.

• Why biblical faith isn't blind belief, but confidence built upon the character and faithfulness of God.

• What it really means to be "saved but not surrendered."

• How God's design has always been for your spirit—not your natural mind or your emotions—to lead your life.

• Why renewing the mind is essential for overcoming fear, double-mindedness, and unbelief.

• How learning to "decide to believe" positions us to experience God's promises.

• A personal testimony of standing on Scripture until an impossible situation was completely overturned.

When the Spirit leads, peace replaces striving. Truth overcomes fear. Faith begins to outweigh what your senses report, and God's promises become living realities instead of distant hopes.

This episode lays the foundation for an upcoming series on healing, renewing the mind, and learning to consistently live from the inside out—from the Spirit rather than the flesh.

Key Scriptures: Hebrews 11:1; Romans 8:5–14; Romans 8:11; Romans 12:2; 2 Corinthians 4:18; Mark 9:23; Colossians 1:27; Ephesians 2:4–10; Proverbs 4:18; Psalm 34:19.

Remember...

This is where you come to receive your healing...and then carry that healing to the world.
