Heroes For Her

My guest for today’s episode is Tricia Goyer. I first interviewed Tricia back in April (Episode 13), and I love that I get to circle back around with her to hear what’s been going on in her world over the last few months.  

Tricia is a busy homeschooling mom of ten, a grandmother to now four grandchildren, and wife to her husband John. Not sure how she manages to find the time, but this best-selling author writes both fictional and non-fiction titles offering encouragement and hope to readers around the world. Tricia is the author of more than sixty books, although I’m pretty sure it’s more than that now. She calls Little Rock, Arkansas home and is the founder of Hope Pregnancy Center in Kalispell, MT.  

Tricia and I got the chance to see each other a few months ago at MOMcon, MOPS International’s annual conference, and it was awesome to be able to catch up with her. In today’s episode, you’ll hear all about what she’s got going on in the homeschooling, adoption, and writing arenas. She shares some amazing stories here. Seriously, I cried during recording. It was that good.  

Don’t miss our latest episode, “Walk It Out.”

“Be still.”

My guest for today’s episode is Demetria Stallings. I first met Demetria back in March when Brent and I went to Virginia to be interviewed for the 700 Club. We walked into the green room and there was this gorgeous light of a woman who immediately blew both of us away, a woman who radiated pure joy and genuine positivity. That’s Demetria.

Demetria is a speaker and worship leader whose love of people has taken her all over the world. Her fiery disposition is matched only by her generous spirit. As she sees it, everyone has a gift, and everyone belongs - that is what she practices, and that is what she preaches. Demetria has made her life about showing people God's redeeming love. She has helped to establish prophetic schools, assisted with healing ministry overseas and consistently works to pour into the lives of young women. In 2008, she joined the Christian Broadcasting Network as a regular worship leader and co-host for their show, The Spiritual Gifts Webcast, now called 700 Club Interactive. Now she’s a producer for 700 Club and 700 Club Interactive.

"It's okay to want to quit, as long as you don't quit." 

 

My guest for today's episode is Pastor Caroline Barnett. Born in Sweden, Caroline Olsson came to the United States at the age of two and grew up in the inner city of Los Angeles. In 1996, she came to The Dream Center after hearing her family discuss the work going on there. After her visit, Caroline felt God calling her to volunteer at the Center. When she was just 18 years old, she and her best friend started the Food Truck Ministry which was a revolutionary concept at the time--taking food out to the people on a daily basis. It has since grown into a huge outreach that currently feeds over 50,000 people each month. 

 

Caroline has an amazing heart for the lost. Programs such as the Family Floor, and Project Prevention, which is designed to keep children with their parents rather than allowing the state to separate them, and many more have all been birthed out of her desire to see no one ever be lost or any families torn apart. Caroline also leads the Center’s Women’s Ministry. She does so because she feels it is a God-given mandate to inspire the women of the church to find their God-given passion to change this world. 

 

In 1999, Caroline married Dream Center Senior Pastor Matthew Barnett and in 2001, they became the senior pastors of the historic Angelus Temple, giving the Dream Center ministry a much-needed sanctuary. Together, the Angelus Temple and the Dream Center are reaching large numbers of people in Los Angeles and are truly effecting change in an impoverished area of a hurting city where many believe a large church could never exist at all.
