We are beyond excited to share this powerful episode! Megan Dyer’s testimony is one of incredible strength, courage, and the relentless fight to be the best mom she can be. Her journey from addiction to redemption will move and inspire you in ways you never imagined!!Our deepest prayer is that this reaches a momma out there who’s struggling with addiction. To that mom: know that with God, you can overcome. You are not alone, and there is no need for shame or guilt in your story. No way! You are not “less than” because of your struggle. In fact, your story has the power to encourage, empower, and uplift others who are facing the same battle - to save lives!Sitting next to Megan, listening to her story, I (Samantha) felt so many emotions. There was heartbreak for what she had to endure, but also immense joy in seeing how she turned her life around. She is now a shining light for so many, and we believe she will be a voice that reaches far and wide to help others heal.Addiction is close to my heart. I’ve seen friends and family fight this battle, and I understand the stigma that comes with it. Watching someone you love, who is an amazing person, be judged or dismissed because of their addiction is heartbreaking. Society often fails to see that addiction is not a reflection of someone’s worth. The hypocrisy of how addiction is viewed can be the hardest part to bear.Most of us have had our moments of drinking too much or experimenting with things we shouldn’t have, and most get to chalk it up as a "young and dumb" moment, but for some, it turns into a dark cloud never goes away. It becomes the fight of their lives. But here’s the truth: there is always hope. No matter how long the cloud has been hovering over you, tomorrow is a new day and a fresh start. Sobriety is possible, whether you’ve been struggling for a year or for 20 years.If you’re in the midst of that struggle right now, we pray this episode gives you the strength, hope, and inspiration to believe that recovery is within reach.Your journey is not over. There is a brighter tomorrow ahead.

Sometimes God sends a powerful message in the form of a dream - and that's what Ginger Trout is here to talk about. Samantha and Nikki sit down [virtually!] with Ginger to hear all about the encounter she had with an older version of Nikki's daughter in a dream that took place in February 2019.Nikki's seven-week-old daughter was diagnosed with cancer a few days prior to the dream. Since then, Sadie has had 17 rounds of chemo, along with radiation, and glaucoma treatment, among many other things, in order to save her vision and her life. Five long years later, Sadie is thriving and is an amazing young lady! But... she still has low vision in her left eye and no vision in her right. But God isn't done with her! Ginger, while reserved in nature, recently disclosed that God wanted her to share the dream - and that is TOTALLY out of her comfort zone, yet here she is! So we said, of course!!Nikki can only hope and pray that this could mean Sadie's miracle, that she's longed for, is just around the corner. Please join us in praying for Sadie!We hope you enjoy this podcast and that you leave encouraged to believe in the things that are unseen. We also hope it motivates you to obey God when He asks you to do something uncomfortable."And thus Abraham, having patiently waited, obtained the promise."
