  • Stacy Dewitt Part 1

    Stacy’s DeWitt’s astounding ministry to foster children in Ventura and Los Angeles counties began with a simple prayer, “Father, how do you want you use me in this place?” From that point forward God not only placed a burden on her heart fro foster children and foster parents, but also began to open unexpected doors to Stacy and her husband to be able to create the ministry known as James Store House. In this podcast you will hear the amazing story of how James Store House came to be as well as how that ministry continues to minister to foster kids. Stacy DeWitt is down to earth and engaging as she inspires all of us to simply ask, “Father, how would you like to use me in this place?”

  • Maud Kells Part 4

    Maud Kells was born in Northern Ireland and grew up on a farm where church was more of a tradition than a heartfelt commitment. After coming to faith in Christ, she shocked her parents by announcing her call to the mission field.
    When it came time for her placement, Maud asked to go to one of the most dangerous and unstable countries in the world — the Democratic Republic of Congo. Despite facing rebel attacks, robberies, and primitive conditions, Maud flourished among the Congolese people she came to love so deeply.
    Her story is a powerful reminder of what God can do through a life fully surrendered to Him.
