StoryTellers Live

We're in week three of our six-week series, The Story Continues, featuring contributors from our new devotional, Where Hope Meets You. Today, we sit down with Juleigh Green, who first shared her story nearly five years ago about her journey through cancer—not once, but twice. You can listen to her original story here.
 
In today's conversation, you'll quickly discover that Juleigh's bold faith and unwavering trust in God's healing power are truly contagious. With honesty and vulnerability, she shares the fears she still faces and the ways God faithfully redirects her heart to the hope found in His sovereignty, goodness, and love.
 
You'll also hear how the Lord has used Juleigh's powerful story to bring hope, encouragement, and comfort to others navigating their own cancer diagnoses. Her story is a beautiful reminder that God continues to work through our experiences long after the chapter we first shared has ended.

Where Hope Meets You Series: The Story Continues with Kristy Bridgers :: [Episode 381]
 
 
Today, we are in week two of our special podcast series featuring Storytellers from our new devotional, Where Hope Meets You. In this episode, podcast host Katie Dunn reconnects with Kristy Bridgers, who first shared her powerful journey to sobriety with our Oxford community. You can listen to her story HERE.
 
Just as she originally shared her story, Kristy is refreshingly honest, vulnerable, and authentic as she reflects on all the Lord has taught her over the years. From laying down the masks she once wore, to letting go of striving and performance, to discovering the beauty of slowing down and becoming self-aware, Kristy offers a beautiful picture of the freedom found in Jesus Christ. Her story is a reminder that true healing begins when we allow God to meet us exactly where we are.

For the next six weeks on the StoryTellers Live podcast, we'll be sitting down with several of the storytellers featured in our new devotional, Where Hope Meets You. Our prayer is that through these conversations, you'll be reminded that no story is beyond the reach of God's grace and that His mercies are truly new every morning. 
 
After this series, we will take a 7-week sabbatical and then return to the podcast with NEW stories from our live gatherings this Fall on September 9th! 
 
In today's episode, podcast host Katie Dunn talks with Alesha Hollinger. You can listen to Alesha's original story by clicking HERE.
 
A little over three years ago, Alesha's life changed forever when she was shot in the face during a mass shooting. Two years later, she courageously shared her story at one of our live gatherings just outside of Atlanta. In today's conversation, Alesha reflects on the ways God revealed His presence, power, peace, and faithfulness not only on the day of the shooting but in the days, months, and years that followed.
 
This heartfelt episode is a powerful reminder that even when life takes an unexpected turn, God is still near, still faithful, and still writing our stories.

Surrendering our plans to the Lord is rarely easy. Every step can be met with questions, doubts, and fears that press in on our decisions. And yet, as today's storyteller reminds us, it is in surrender that we discover true freedom.
 
On today's podcast, Ashley Stockard, who shared at our Vestavia, Alabama live gathering, reflects on her faith journey and the ways the Lord faithfully pursued her heart—drawing her in, capturing her attention, and ultimately leading her to live with open hands.
 
Through her story, Ashley gently reminds us that surrendering to the Lord, following His lead, and loving Him above all else is where our true identity is revealed and our purpose is found.
 
VERSE OF THE WEEK:
See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. Isaiah 43:19
 
CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK:
Surrender your plans to the Lord, follow His lead and watch Him move.

Today, we're excited to bring you a unique and powerful story from our Tupelo, Mississippi community. Sara and Chris Ekiss share their individual faith journeys, how the Lord brought them together, and the ways He deepened their faith early in their marriage.
 
When Chris sensed God calling him away from being the lead singer of a secular band and into ministry, their lives took an unexpected turn, one that required trust, surrender, and a deep reliance on God's provision.
 
This is a story about making your faith your own, moving beyond the foundation of family and discovering a personal, vibrant relationship with the Lord. It's also a story of learning to trust God's guidance, His timing, and His faithfulness as He leads us exactly where we're meant to be.
 
VERSE OF THE WEEK:
"May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us - yes, establish the work of our hands." Psalm 90:17
 
CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK:
In what ways have your faith and prayer life become your own over the years? Praise God for the ways in which He has pursued your heart and established the work of your hands.
