From collapse to calling. While Kristen Hale's body shut down, her soul woke up. Experience the voice of Jesus calling Kristen at a Mormon healing ceremony.

“My work is done here,” Jesus told Kristen Hale as she hobbled to the altar at the Mormon temple’s healing service. Jesus would gently lead her out of Mormonism and heal her–body, mind and Spirit.

In part 2, hear how Kristen became paralyzed on half of her body with a mysterious illness; she had a heart condition called POTS, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. During her lowest moments, Kristen found spiritual awakening and was gently guided out of the Mormon church and to a loving Christian community in a new state. See her helpful links on Mormonism, as well as POTS.

What happens when a life built on certainty starts to crack? Hear the One80 of Raviv Dror, who grew up in a hardline communist kibbutz where the collective came first, religion, even true Judaism, was scorned, and affection felt scarce. His story carries us from growing up on a faithless kibbutz to a cross-continent love that opens a door he isn’t ready to walk through—until everything else falls apart.

In part 1, hear how God broke Raviv free from communist ideology and slowly, faith starts to move in.

Leaving the checklist for grace.

“My work is done here,” Jesus told Kristen Hale as she hobbled to the altar at the Mormon temple’s healing service. Jesus would gently lead her out of Mormonism and heal her–-body, mind and Spirit.

In part 1, learn how Kristen grew up in a devout Mormon home, with a strict bishop father and the heavy weight of performance based love. Listen as she explains some tenets of Mormonism. See how Kristen’s zeal for Mormonism even brought her to witness to Christian friends. Glimpses of Mormonism’s incongruity began to reveal themselves after a devastating death in the family with a cold response.

What happens when a lifelong dream collides with an unexpected diagnosis? For David Suarez, the path seemed clear from the age of six: become a cardiovascular surgeon and heal broken hearts. But when David was fast-tracked into Brown University’s prestigious medical school, a sidelining diagnosis and an aha from God showed him that there was more than one way to fix a broken heart. 

A shower of surrender showed David an entirely new way to see God and deal with his narcolepsy diagnosis. And he found a natural antidote in sharing Jesus with others that led David down an entirely new career path.  

David is now a high school Bible teacher as well as published apologist. See how God guides David from one passionate career choice to another, and how he is now fixing broken hearts.

Some of David’s Books:

David’s Book, Worldview Review: A Guide to Worldview Formation, Christian Apologetics, Comparative Religion, and Evaluating Competing Belief Systems

She threw the Bible; it opened itself.

“But those who hope in the Lord. . . “ 

Kim Lengling had no hope. Out of desperation she cried out to the God she didn’t believe existed and out of frustration threw a Bible she had never read. But at just the right moment, God intervened with a slight whisper. 

Kim was retired from the military, carrying PTSD with her. She thought God had abandoned her, but now she started attending church with skepticism, but she came back time and again.

Hear Caleb's One80 and the unlikely mentor who walked him back from the bridge. 

"And then, at the pinnacle of my life. . . why do I feel so empty?" said University of Minnesota student Caleb Jue, on his rock bottom night. 

But God reached out to Caleb and a journey of restoration would come to him. Namely in the form of a Pinnacle Forum leader, Merrill Oster. 

These Pinnacle retirees had been praying that they would mentor a student from an area high school, and in walks Caleb to Merrill's home. Hear how he went to Merrill's house to solicit power washing, but left with purpose. 

God uses this relationship to steer Caleb towards faith in Christ, and freedom from his sinful patterns. This story is a testament to redemption and the power of mentorship.
