Clearly with Jimmy & Kelly Needham

Stepping Off the Throne: Kelly's Story


Listen Later

What does it look like to let God rule in singleness? What if His rule looks different from what we would prefer? What if Kelly thought of Jimmy not as a boyfriend but more as a good friend? All these questions are answered as we listen to Kelly's journey to vacate areas of her life that rightly belong to the King of the universe.


Key learning moments in Kelly’s life:

(2:35) - College-age Kelly submitted her desire to find a husband to God.

(7:34) - Kelly had to pray before saying ‘yes’ to dating Jimmy Needham. 🤭

(9:35) - Kelly realized marriage wasn’t to serve her own desires - but God’s.

(14:27) - Through an inductive study of the Old Testament prophets, Kelly’s view of God was challenged. Does God have feelings? A personality?

(19:21) As a mom with two young kids and a husband on tour, Kelly studied the Pharisees. And it changed everything.
