Susan Marks, Flourish Coordinator, Daniele Flickinger, Director of Flourish Mentoring + Camilla Williams, co-founder of Relay Exchange Inc., all have one special thing in common. Each one of these women have a unique love and commitment to serve the women in their city.  Each week they travel to share God's word with women who have been subjected to the sex industry and are looking for ways to transition back into normal life rhythms. When they gather their prayer is to share God's word in order to see women's lives changed, set free and walking in freedom.

In today's episode Susan, leads a conversation with Daniele + Camilla around what it means to offer Jesus to new people in new places. These women help us to understand the freedom that exists when we remove the restraints on our lives by remaining within the walls of the church or within our own communities. They recount their own testimonies from every Tuesday, when they gather to serve and advance the Kingdom through love, kindness and discipleship in God's word. This episode is an encouraging word for all of us to be mindful of both, the narrow boundaries we set for ourselves and how to be Spirit led in breaking those walls down.

Cara Dyba, is the Director of the Grove ministry here at Passion City Church. She is married to Jason Dyba and mother of two incredible boys, Roman + Asa Dyba. Cara has both faithfully worked and served here at Passion City Church for the past 8 years as a Grove staff team member + DoorHolder on our worship team. A great deal of all that goes into the Grove is a product of both Cara's vision and oversight. Together, her and Shelley have been faithful stewards over the legacy and history that is the Grove.

In today's episode, God completely shifted the direction of where our team thought we were going. In a turn of a few quick events, we found ourselves pivoting toward God's plans to have Cara Dyba sit down with Shelley Giglio and have a discussion around living a life open to pivoting. Cara's entire testimony up until this point has been a life of needing to understand when God was divinely stepping in to interrupt and shift the direction she was headed. And as He always promises in His word - These shifts were for His Glory and her good. Our team prays that while you listen to Cara's testimony, God would prompt you to review your own story for the ways He's been faithful to carry you through your own pivots. To connect with Cara on her story or around all she is doing to steward the Grove email her here at [email protected].
