Number 1: What Does God Sound Like? - TBH 433
"While sitting on the school bus, I looked out the window and saw a tall lanky boy and suddenly heard a voice in my right ear, 'That's the one!' I turned toward the voice, and no one was there." ---------- Elijah was trying to hear God in the wind, fire, and earthquake. Which to us, sounds like today's episode… Did another car just pass through a person? Where did that perfectly placed $20 bill come from when Kimberly had no money for gas? And what about the 13-year-old girl who heard three words about a boy… words she wouldn't understand until years later? Then there's Janelle, the surfer God seemingly moved heaven and earth to send across an ocean, only to give her no waves. Maybe the question isn't whether God is speaking. Maybe it's whether we recognize what He sounds like. ---------- Join Us October 2026 for a Pilgrimage to Medjugorje We invite you to embark with us this October 10th to 18th on a pilgrimage to Medjugorje--one of the most grace-filled and spiritually uplifting places we've ever encountered.

Number 2: God is Good... But Not Very Nice - TBH 432
"I was at the bookstore and out of the corner of my eye I saw a book inching its way to the edge of the shelf, teetering, then falling to my feet, face up. And there she was." ---------- Dr. Cyndi Peterson had everything she thought should make her happy, yet something was missing. Then, a mysterious dream, a book about Medjugorje falling at her feet, and extraordinary encounters with God, transformed her faith. But then came unimaginable losses. And a feeling that God had turned against her. Angry and feeling betrayed, Cyndi finally confronted God: "I really can't trust You."

Number 3: She is Beautiful Even When Broken - TBH 430
"Who would do this? Next to the dumpster was a statue of the Virgin Mary. She was broken in half, hands missing, laying on her back and covered by dirt and garbage. And I heard the voice of Jesus saying to me, 'Will you deny me? Will you deny my mother?'" ---------- Former Chicago radio legend Kevin Matthews discovered an old, broken statue of the Blessed Mother that most people would have thrown away. Instead, "Broken Mary" became a powerful reminder that God doesn't discard broken people--He transforms them. In this episode, Kevin shares how a damaged statue helped reshape his faith, while Trapper Jack reflects on a broken white cane during a Medjugorje pilgrimage, recent vandalism of sacred statues there, and the surprising ways grace flows through life's fractures. If you've ever felt damaged, wounded, or beyond repair, this story offers a beautiful reminder: in God's hands, brokenness often becomes the beginning of something holy. Kevin Matthews will be speaking at St. Colette Parish, Brunswick, OH Tuesday, August 18, 2026 at 6:30 pm (Rosary at 6:15) ---------- Join Us October 2026 for a Pilgrimage to Medjugorje We invite you to embark with us this October 10th to 17th on a pilgrimage to Medjugorje--one of the most grace-filled and spiritually uplifting places we've ever encountered.

Number 4: Lourdes, the Miracle Beyond the Water - TBH 431
"I had missed a message somewhere. I had not been paying attention to God's call. So, when my daughter received her eyesight, it really smacked me in the face." ---------- For the third week in a row, Lourdes unexpectedly returns. First through Greg's remarkable near-death experience, then through Kevin Matthews' story of a broken statue of Our Lady of Lourdes, and now through an unexpected nudge that led me back to one of our own podcast episodes from nearly three years ago. But this isn't simply a story about miraculous water. It's about learning to notice God. Sometimes the greatest miracle isn't physical healing but the moment our eyes are finally opened to His presence. Zoe's healing becomes her mother's conversion. ---------- Join Us October 2026 for a Pilgrimage to Medjugorje We invite you to embark with us this October 10th to 18th on a pilgrimage to Medjugorje--one of the most grace-filled and spiritually uplifting places we've ever encountered.

Number 5: The Day Heaven Sent Him Back - TBH 429
"All of this information was just flowing into me. I was hearing all the answers. This continual flow of answers. And I heard Him say, 'There are no questions here, only answers.'" ---------- Greg, known as the hydrogen man, spent much of his childhood wanting to die, convinced that God had ignored his cries for help. Years later, while sitting beside a river with a dangerously damaged heart, everything changed. A radiant, motherly woman of light appeared, embraced his brokenness and led him beyond the earth. He encountered a mysterious council that told him, "We've been waiting for you," before opening a doorway into the presence of the Father – vast, living and flowing like an infinite river. Water, Lourdes and hydrogen will become important parts of Greg's journey, but first comes the astonishing story of the woman, the council and the God he never expected to find.
