Moms in Prayer Podcast

“Our most vital role as a parent is to introduce our children to the One who can meet all their needs.” Today Stacy talks with best-selling author and single mom of seven, PeggySue Wells. Listen in as she shares the heart-mending, life-changing lessons the Lord taught her as she has journeyed through motherhood as a single mom.  Don’t miss a moment because these lessons are going to minister to every single mom, no matter what stage, no matter what age, no matter what relationship status.

“We serve a mighty God who blesses 1000 generations of those who love Him.” Today Stacy sits down with radio talk show host, concert pianist, and Arizona Moms in Prayer Regional Coordinator Doctor Deborah Joy.  She is a fifth-generation Korean believer here to share the legacy of faith that has been passed down in her family.  What you are about to hear is one amazing God story after another.  Truly the Lord’s faithfulness endures to all generations.

Dr. Deborah Joy is a fifth-generation believer who serves as a speaker, prayer minister, pianist, and life coach in schools, seminars, conferences, and churches. She grew up in a Christian home with three generations of pastors who modeled passionate lifestyles of prayer and worship. As an award-winning concert pianist and composer, she has traveled to various nations around the world, sharing the testimony of Jesus through evangelism, worship, and concerts.

In recent years, Deborah hosted three original weekly radio programs, Praying for Your Children, It’s Time to Pray the Bible, and Praying for the Next Generation, which aired to Korean and American listeners in the U.S. and abroad through Heart and Seoul Gospel Ministries.

Deborah Joy serves as Regional Coordinator with Moms in Prayer International in Arizona. She was honored to serve as a guest speaker at the Moms in Prayer Conference in Hermosillo, Mexico, and was featured at the Arizona Moms in Prayer event, Melody of Hope. https://vimeo.com/534969285  

Dr. Joy's passion is to fervently pray for the next generation and inspire them to discover their true identity and God-given destiny in a culture of Kingdom revival.

“Jesus, the Champion of grace, has won the battle for you, and He has huge supplies of grace waiting for you.”  Hallelujah! Listen in as Stacy talks with author, international speaker, and pastor’s wife Cheryl Brodersen about how we can access this abundant grace.   Don’t miss the encouragement that it’s good to come to Jesus empty because what He fills us with is far superior to anything we could have on our own.

Cheryl married Brian Brodersen in 1980, and for many years they ministered together at Calvary Chapel Vista, California. In 1996, the Brodersen family moved to London and planted Calvary Chapel Westminster. In 2000, at the request of her father, Pastor Chuck Smith, Brian and Cheryl returned from the UK to California to have Brian transition into the pastorate of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa. Brian became the senior pastor of the church in October of 2013.

Cheryl currently oversees the Joyful Life women's Bible study at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa. She also hosts a weekly podcast called “Women Worth Knowing,” highlighting women from all walks of life, past and present and the lives they led for the Lord and serving others.

Cheryl is also a frequent speaker at women’s retreats and conferences around the world. She has written several books with Harvest House Publishers. It is her joy and privilege to minister biblical truths to women of all ages.

Cheryl & Brian have four grown children, six grandchildren, including five grandsons and one granddaughter and a Golden-doodle named Barnabas.

“It is about shame-shattering, guilt-busting transformation so we can walk in the freedom Jesus purchased for us.”  Who doesn’t want that?  Listen in Stacy talks with our wonderful USA Country Coordinator, Susan Shepherd.  She is here to give us a sneak peek at the new Moms in Prayer summer Bible study that starts in July.  Don’t miss this behind the scenes look at the study available in both Spanish and English.  You can sign up today!

Susan Shepherd joyfully serves as the USA Country Coordinator for Moms in Prayer International. When she began praying 22 years ago as a group member, she could never have predicted that she would follow the Lord into leadership as a Group Leader, Area Coordinator, Alabama State Coordinator, Division Coordinator of the Mid-Atlantic and New England, and finally into this role as Country Coordinator. Susan is the wife of her husband, Joe, mom to her two married daughters, and the grandmother of one adorable grandson and another grandbaby on the way. Susan loves to pray, but she also loves coffee with friends, traveling, a good book, and a nap.

“Parenting is the hardest job we are not trained to do.”  So we need all the help we can get.  Right! Today Stacy welcomes Doctors David and Donna Lane to share their more than 80 years of combined experience working in the field of Christian counseling.  This episode is a gift because it is filled with godly wisdom and practical helps that will greatly assist us as we care for mental health of our children.

Drs. David and Donna Lane are a husband-wife counseling duo who specialize in trauma, grief, and loss as well as family relationships. While qualified by education, their life experience shapes much of their current-day work, as they have experienced first-hand the horrific death of their own son, who had a neurological disorder throughout his 17 years on earth. The Lanes are professors, counselors, consultants and award-winning authors; their research and writing on trauma and grief has been used extensively throughout the world in the aftermath of tragedies including the Sandy Hook shootings, Haiti earthquakes, Rwandan genocide and others. The Lanes live in the Atlanta area and have been married to each other for more than 40 years.

“My entire family was transformed and behind it all, was a praying grandma.” On today’s episode Stacy sits down with author, speaker, and founder of Dare 2 Share Ministries, Greg Stier.  What you are about to hear is nothing short of miraculous, and it will spur you on to pray like you have never prayed before!  Listen in as Greg opens our eyes to view the potential of teenagers in a radically wonderful way.

“One of life’s greatest blessings is to have a godly mother."  And thus, one of the greatest gifts you can give your children is being a godly mother.”  How do we do this?   On today’s episode Stacy speaks with Jessie Seneca, author, speaker, and founder of More of Him Ministries.  You won’t want to miss a moment as Jessie freely and graciously shares godly wisdom she has gleaned in raising her children.

Jessie Seneca is the founder of More of Him Ministries and the iMOM at home conference. Jessie lives in Bethlehem, PA with her husband, John of 35 years. They have two daughters, Lauren and Sarah and two wonderful son-in-laws. And now add on two grandsons, Luke and Connor (life is full!). Her message inspires women to move into a whole-hearted lifestyle, one devoted fully to God. Jessie’s passion and wisdom is to use the gifts God has given her to speak into the lives of her listeners and readers through her Bible studies and books. While writing her book, Raising Girls, Diaper to Diamond, she had one question at the forefront of her mind, “What do I wish I could tell the younger me?” She doesn’t claim to have all the answers and like most of us, has made mistakes along the way, but her continued desire has been to develop girls into responsible young adults while nurturing a deep friendship with her own daughters. Most days you can find Jessie walking her two golden-doodles, Bella and Murphy or playing with her grandsons.
