The Jesus Magnet

In this episode of The Jesus Magnet, Joel Hillary sits down with Tracy Schmidt to hear her powerful testimony of faith forged through loss, infertility, and deep personal healing.
Tracy shares openly about her journey through health struggles, the emotional weight of infertility, and the grief of losing both of her parents. Rather than turning away from God, these moments became the very places where her faith was refined and strengthened.
This conversation explores the connection between mind, body, and spirit, the importance of support in seasons of waiting, and how faith shapes the legacy we pass on to our children. Tracy speaks candidly about doubt, belief, and what it means to live out your faith authentically — even when healing doesn’t come the way you expect.
A deeply honest and hope-filled episode for anyone walking through loss, waiting, or learning to trust God in the unseen.

In this episode, we sit down with Phil, a man who has spent over 25 years serving in Thailand, giving his life to the gospel and to children who had no one else.
Phil shares his calling, the unseen sacrifices of long-term missions, and the reality many missionaries face as they grow older — having built the Kingdom instead of careers, often without financial security or retirement plans. This conversation is honest, sobering, and deeply faith-filled.
It’s also a call to the wider Church: to not only send missionaries out well, but to walk with them through every season, including their later years.

May this conversation challenge us to honour those who have faithfully carried the gospel for decades — and to finish the race together.
