This episode feels really special to me.

Today I’m talking to a mother and son I’ve known for over thirty years which means I haven’t just heard their story, I’ve watched it unfold.

It’s a story of healing. Of stepping out prophetically. Of the quiet, steady impact of decades of faith.

Judy is extraordinary, widowed with two small boys, building and running a hugely successful recruitment business, navigating grief and resilience with courage and humour.

Bill is her son, now the father of grown-up boys himself. He’s been a teacher, an ordained church leader, a therapist, and has written two books - Catching His Breath . But at the heart of it, he’s someone who loves people deeply and isn’t afraid to take risks for them.

Talking to them reminded me how lucky I’ve been, to grow up surrounded by people like this. And it reminded me of the beauty of the church when it truly loves others well.

Here’s Judy and Bill.
