What if the most painful chapters of your life became the very soil for your greatest impact? 💔➡🌱

In this week's Healing Rain podcast, I sit down with Anne Beiler, founder of Auntie Anne’s® Pretzels—yes, the world’s largest mall-based pretzel franchise 🥨—to unpack her powerful journey from trauma to triumph.

With only an 8th-grade Amish education, no capital, no business plan, and a heart heavy from the death of her daughter and battles with depression, Anne launched a business that became a modern-day miracle. 💡

But more than pretzels, this is a story about healing, surrender, and overcoming the greatest obstacle—ourselves. 💪🏼
Anne shares raw, real leadership wisdom for anyone who’s ever felt broken, overwhelmed, or stuck.

🎙 Overcome and Lead isn’t just her story—it’s your invitation to rise.

🔥 What if the very topics we avoid… are the ones God wants to redeem?

On this week’s Healing Rain Podcast, I sat down with pastor and author Mike Novotny to talk about his bold and biblically grounded new book: "Taboo: Topics Christians Should Be Talking About But Don’t." 📖🔥

From sexuality and addiction to identity and mental health, Mike tackles some of the most controversial, emotional, and vulnerable issues in culture today—with grace, humility, and truth. 🙏

📖 “God’s Word gives us clarity, healing, and hope.”
We can’t afford to stay silent. We can’t afford to look away. We must step into the uncomfortable and speak God’s truth with courage and compassion.

This conversation is for every believer who’s ready to stop hiding and start healing. 💬💔➡💡❤

On this week’s episode of Healing Rain, I had the joy of interviewing author and speaker Becky Thompson** about her powerful new book, Healing Rest. 📖🌙

We talked about:
💤 Why physical rest isn’t enough
🕊 What it means to rest in God's presence
💡 How healing begins when we finally stop striving

✨ Have you ever been wrongly accused? Have you had to deal with the consequences of someone else's actions?

Judy Henderson knows that pain all too well.
A single mother and successful business owner, her life was shattered when she was sentenced to life in prison for a crime she did not commit.

For 36 years, she endured the harsh realities of incarceration — separated from her children, facing violence and injustice.
Yet, through it all, she never lost hope. 💫

With unwavering faith and determination, Judy fought for her freedom — and won.
Even the prosecutor who once sought her conviction later stood in her defense.

With the support of many and the Missouri governor, she was finally granted clemency and fully pardoned. 🙌

Her journey is one of resilience, faith, and the power of hope in the face of unimaginable injustice.
✨ Tune in to Healing Rain as we hear Judy’s powerful testimony and be inspired by her story of perseverance, love, and ultimate redemption. 🌧✨

🎤 How do we respond to tragedy? How do we stand for truth in a world filled with conflict?

On Healing Rain, I had the privilege of interviewing Todd Morehead, Producer of the powerful new documentary, October 7: Bearing Witness to Massacre. This film uncovers the history of Gaza and the traumatic events of October 7, 2023, a day that shook the world.

As the Founder and Director of Grafted Ministries, Todd has dedicated his life to standing with Israel. His deep love for the Jewish people and the land of Israel has fueled his mission to share truth and bring clarity in these turbulent times.

This conversation was raw, heartbreaking, and deeply important. Now more than ever, we must seek understanding, pray for healing, and be voices of truth in the midst of devastation.

🛑 Do you long to hear God’s voice but struggle to know if it’s really Him speaking?

✨ God is always communicating—with love, guidance, and wisdom—but often, the noise of life 🎧 drowns out His voice. The good news is that He desires for you to hear Him! The Bible says, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” (John 10:27) 🐑📖

Here are 10 ways to cultivate a deeper awareness of His voice:

1️⃣ Cultivate a Relationship with God – Spend time in His presence. The closer you are to Him, the clearer His voice becomes.
2️⃣ Engage with Scripture – The Bible is God’s living Word! Ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you as you read.
3️⃣ Learn to Recognize His Voice – He often speaks in a still, small whisper. Are you listening?
4️⃣ Listen with Expectation – Approach Him with faith, believing He desires to speak to you.
5️⃣ Develop a Lifestyle of Prayer and Stillness – Be still and know that He is God. Create space for Him to speak.
6️⃣ Pay Attention to Dreams and Visions – God has spoken through dreams throughout Scripture—He still does today!
7️⃣ Test What You Hear – Align it with Scripture and seek wise counsel.
8️⃣ Be Willing to Obey – God often speaks to those who are ready to respond in faith.
9️⃣ Seek God in Community – Surround yourself with Spirit-led believers who can help confirm His guidance.
🔟 Trust the Holy Spirit’s Guidance – He will lead you into all truth when you surrender to Him.

Hearing is just the beginning—true transformation 🔥 comes when we respond in faith and obedience. Are you willing to quiet your heart 💙, lean into His presence, and trust what He’s saying?

Take time today to be still before Him 🌅. Ask, "Lord, what do You want to say to me?" Write down what you sense in your spirit and begin to walk in the confidence that He is speaking.
