November 15, 2024 191. Bringing this Generation Back to BIBLICAL TRUTH - with Hannah Williamson
Share this podcast after it blesses you, thank you.
Today we share some exciting news with you all about what's been shaken in the ministry and then we bring on Hannah Williamson to unpack her online ministry and heart for reaching this generation with biblical truth.
We will ask her the truth about her escape from legalism into the fullness of God and how the fear of the Lord draws her closer to Him. She gets raw and real by opening up about the spiritual abuse and condemnation she received from her last church. She also opened up about losing a best friend and we truly had a beautiful conversation about life and serving the Lord.
If you agree with me, book Hannah here: https://hannahwministries.com/

September 09, 2024 185. How to Keep the God Mind - with Andre Blaze
Keeping the “God Mind” was the heartbeat of the message I heard Andre Blaze preach at the summer Prison Mission I went on.
He lit up the room and all the prisoners were on fire for Jesus once he got done proclaiming the word of God. After talking to Andre after the mission, I know our audience will love this brother’s story and heart for the Lord!
Come and get this bread!
