Jocelynn realized something had to change when she saw herself on television in a "Most Wanted" report.  Sixteen felonies, a drug addiction, multiple crimes to sustain it, the lies, homeless and tired of fighting, she called the police department and turned herself in.  It was a process, but she submitted her life to Jesus and was delivered.  In the years to come God would call her to serve in so many ways, including the donation of her kidney to one of the officers who arrested her on 3 different occasions.   In this episode Jocelynn shares: -The heartache of those darker days, and her path to recovery. -How God told her she would have a facility for helping others get set free from addiction. -The day she clearly heard God tell her that she had the officer's kidney, how it was such a perfect match that the hospital assumed she was his daughter, that it was in excellent condition, and it set a record for most urine output after transplant! -The beautiful way God blessed her in how she would share the news of the kidney donation with her children (God is in the details). -The Place for Grace ministry and how God is opening doors and providing in miraculous ways. -Her encouraging message for those listening who are struggling with addiction. -A fundraiser ending 10/20/2021 where you can donate $100 and get a chance to win a car -I pray a blessing over our listeners and we give God the glory for who He is and how He loves us.   "In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.'

78. Police Officer Life is Saved by the Most Unexpected Gift

Sheila has experienced many miracles and is grateful to be alive!  She has overcome hardships from nearly every possible spectrum of struggle.  She has two muscle and nerve diseases that present daily challenges, she has been in 20 car accidents, she was paralyzed from the neck down in her past, was hit by a bus, and was once married to a man who struggled with addiction.  While she has overcome so much hardship, is now a best selling author, and has achieved great success as a business professional, it is Sheila's humility and passionate love and devotion for the Lord that I admire the most.  I was thrilled to have a chance to talk with her about what it means to love God with all your heart, all of your soul and all of your mind.   In this episode we discuss: - The importance of doing the healing work to overcome false beliefs about ourselves we may have incorporated in childhood (therapy can facilitate this for many).   -Choose the truth of God's Word about your identity versus what your past life experiences dictate. -Truly accepting God's love, forgiveness and grace for yourself, then you can be capable of loving him with ALL of you, and then radiating that out to your neighbors. -The story of the prodigal son as an illustration of God's love for us. -True identity and responsibility of a Christian (are we truly acting Christ-like?). -Asking God to help us see others as HE sees them can help us to react from a place of love. -Navigating loving a person suffering from addiction without enabling them. -A powerful moment where she experienced the overwhelming peace of the Holy Spirit in conflict, which equipped her to be Christ-like in the moment. -Practical tips for this time of division include taking every thought captive, when you want to react, stop and pray and remember that we are to be kind like Jesus was kind. -Sheila's 6 books and new upcoming podcast "Made Whole."   Inspired by Sheila's share and I cannot wait to check out her other highly rated books!  Thank you, Sheila!   Matthew 22:36-40 NIV 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”   James 1:19 NIV My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.   How to reach Sheila and find her books and podcast: http://www.fejeranbooks.com/

76. God's Redemption and Hope Restored After Heartache

Jeff Fusco is a husband and father from Canfield, Ohio who experienced not only a baffling physical healing from the virus of 2020/2021 (has been featured on Fox news with video testimony of 2 of his many physicians), but a powerful near death experience where he saw Jesus. Jeff's testimony is so powerful that the enemy tried to steal it! During his time in the hospital Jeff was approached by an evil entity and tempted. His medical records reflect and support his testimony. He is sharing his spiritual journey and a beautiful message to inspire others. The devil was rebuked and Jeff is living out his testimony in such a powerful way and sharing the light of Jesus! On top of all of this goodness, Jeff is one of the kindest people you can meet. I loved recording this testimony!   Back in March of 2020, Jeff was 57 and working as an Executive Vice President of GBS Corp in North Canton, OH (a high tech productivity firm) and was one of the first 100 people in OH to contract the well publicized virus.  Jeff had some underlying risk factors (multiple myeloma and leukemia). Upon being diagnosed, he deteriorated rapidly.  Within days he was placed on a ventilator (for 3 weeks), ran a temp of 104 for 2 weeks, experienced renal failure requiring dialysis, his epithelium in his intestines were ravaged which caused hemorrhage so severe he lost liters of blood with a hemoglobin as low as 4, experienced multisystem organ failure with liver and kidney involvement, a decubitus ulcer with sepsis, and 3-4 surgeries. There were an estimated 100 physicians having some role in his care, 3 hospitals last of which he was airlifted to the Cleveland Clinic.  At the lowest point his family was told to make preparations for his passing, likely within the next 2 hours.   In this episode, Jeff shares his profound, undeniable medical miracle, his encounter with Jesus, being approached and tempted by an evil entity (twice), and the beautiful confirmation from God he received shortly before he was discharged. In Jeff's encounter with Jesus, he was given free will as to whether he could stay in heaven or come back and was told he would do God's work in either place. Jeff is truly doing the work, even as he is still rehabilitating, and has encouraged and witnessed to many people around the globe. His heart for helping others is truly beautiful. His testimony is being published in a book by Guide Post and is due to be in print this fall. Joshua 1:9 ESV "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Fox News clip story: https://fox8.com/news/coronavirus/local-man-experiences-near-death-experience-covid-19-miracle-at-cleveland-clinic/   To contact Jeff Fusco: fgrillngo@gmail.com

74. From Bake Sale to War Zone

Reports of near death experiences, glimpses of heaven and encounters with Jesus are occurring at a frequency as high as 1 in 10 in Europe.  While these reports are subjective, and cannot become the framework for our theology, there are undeniable commonalities that clearly correlate with scripture.  Could these testimonies be God's way of allowing us to have more insight to the life that is to come?  If yes, how do these revelations change the way we live today?   In this episode: What led John to study near death experiences? What is a near death experience and at what rate are they occuring? What are common features of a near death experience? What do people experience in heaven? What is a life review? WHO do people see in heaven? What are some of the scriptures that correlate with these reports? How many people have a hell experience? How do different religions/cultures interpret their experiences? If God loves us so much, how can he send anyone to hell?  Who goes to heaven? What resources are helpful for those searching for proof of Jesus Christ as the Son of God? What steps does someone take if they want to know Jesus? Where to find more on John and the interviews he has conducted?   John Burke has studied over 1,000 near death experiences over the last 30 years.  He has spoken on this topic in over 20 countries to over 200,000 leaders and Christians.  He has attended seminary and also studied the world's major religions and ancient writings.  A former engineer, his research is thorough and analytical.   His book, Imagine Heaven, Near-Death Experiences, God's Promises, and the Exhilarating Future that Awaits You, is a New York Times best seller with over 1 million copies sold around the world.   John and his wife Kathy founded and pastor Gateway Church in Austin, TX with approximately 4,500-5,000 members over multiple campuses and online ministry.  John Burke is also the author of No Perfect People Allowed, Soul Revolution, and Unshockable Love.  John is the president of Gateway Leadership Initiative, a non-profit organization working to help church planting pastors and ordinary Christians "raise the church out of the culture."     John Burke's Imagine Heaven Book, devotional and sermon series resources: https://imagineheaven.net/   Gateway Church in Austin Texas and links for online resources: https://www.gatewaychurch.com/   John Burke's responses to frequently asked questions: https://www.whatsafteratx.org/faq-2/   Imagine Heaven facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/imagineheavenbook   If you have had a near death experience and need help (some are depressed or unable to process what has happened), please email me at everydaymiraclespodcast@gmail.com and I can connect you to someone who can help you.   John's interview with Mary Neal (30:45): https://vimeo.com/140585737   John's interview with Heidi Barr: https://fb.watch/7jZcUIx9uM/   John's full inteview with Howard Storm (hell NDE): https://vimeo.com/215562283

73. Imagine Heaven - with John Burke

Kenny and Kelly prayed for a miracle for their unborn baby girl (2002).  Doctors had diagnosed the unborn baby with serious birth defects and advised that they terminate the pregnancy.  While the parents prayed for a miracle, they also made preparations for her passing shortly after her delivery and chose a casket and burial place.  Full of mixed emotions, they arrived at the hospital to deliver their baby and were thrilled to see that she was born and was thriving!  A national Christian network was notified and broadcasted the story of the medical miracle, and God was praised.  It wasn't long, unfortunately, before the couple realized that the doctors were right about many of the hardships they would have to face related to Ellie's complex medical issues.    In this episode Kenny shares the deeply personal story of their journey with their daughter, how God moved through other people to bless their family, how God moved through their situation to bring good to a local facility, their family's adoption of Landry Kate, and gives valuable insight as to what the Bible says about trials and trusting in God's heart when you can't see his hand.  Abortion is also discussed and we pray over those in a trial and for those who have had an abortion in the past.   "Dr. Kenny Hibbard, founder and lead pastor of Team Church, is a straightforward Bible teacher who uniquely connects God’s unchanging biblical truth with today’s culture.

70. Pulling Each Other Along

A diagnosis of 3A Hodgkin's Lymphoma came as a shock for Randy Sage.  He and his wife Angela were fit and healthy, had a full life, family, and a thriving custom home building business.  The physicians expressed that the aggressive cancer growing rapidly in his neck and chest must be treated right away.  Without the chemotherapy, he was given a prognosis of only months to live.  

69. Faith Over Fear

Teena grew up in a controlled environment, was sexually abused, oppressed, lonely, full of fear, and even suicidal at times.   Risking everything, she escaped from her forced, pre-arranged marriage and hoped to find a new life.  Her Earthly family disowned her, but God had plans.   Teena soon relocated from the UK to Canada where everything would change.  After witnessing a tragic accident she began to think about heaven and the afterlife and her own salvation.  In late 2016 Teena attended church with a friend, where she accepted Jesus and was baptized in 2017.  God gave her a special revelation as she learned the meaning of the new nickname she had chosen after leaving her family, "follower of Christ."   God began revealing a special gift to Teena as she began to get downloads of poems.  These divinely inspired songs/poems were found to contain actual scripture from the Bible that Teena had not yet read!  She began to realize that these downloads were from the Lord and were powerful prophecies and evangelical messages.  She continues to write with power and passion and has produced some of these (see attached videos and links).  God gave Teena a special gift through her new VOICE, something that she felt she never had in her previous life!   Teena shares many other pieces of the story, including her life as Muslim versus the new life as a Christ follower, the conversion of her current husband to Christianity, her new passion with her spoken word, and a beautiful message of love and forgiveness.  Although Teena has not reconnected with her family in the UK, she shares that she loves and forgives them.  She shared with me, "Love is not an option, love is not a choice, love is not a recommendation or suggestion.  Love is a COMMANDMENT."   Teena takes a moment to speak to the Muslim community and she concludes our time by offering an invitation and a prayer of salvation, and I am nearly speechless.  I am in awe that in this world where so many can be so far from God in a moment, yet there is ALWAYS hope in Jesus Christ.     I am beyond honored to share this miracle of redemption and restoration, and healing!  I am excited to see where God takes this passionate woman, and all that are going to be set FREE through her powerful testimony!  Praise Jesus!   Isaiah 41:10 NIV "So do not fear, for I am with you;     do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you;     I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."   Jeremiah 29:13 NIV "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."   John 3:16 NIV "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."   Links for Teena: Teena's Facebook page called- Teena Sandhu 'Downloads From Heaven' Her personal journey, of an update of her Christian walk: https://www.facebook.com/TeenaDownloads/     Below is the link to her latest video which was produced with TCF4 Productions, written and performed by Teena.   Watch "THE VEIL TORN  A Muslims Journey to Christ" on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqJEJcyIxy8&feature=share     Watch "Strength and Courage Spoken Word Long Version with Message" on YouTube: https://youtu.be/7MgyVO-R8Nc      From Teena, "Below is a link to one of the top Christian TV show I did hosted by Robert Melnichuk, director of Western Canada for YesTV/ Crossroads Christian Community.

68. A Muslim's Journey to Christ

Amy shares some of her highlights and heartaches while living in the beautiful United Arab Emirates.  She married a Captain in the Egyptian Army, who risked everything to be with her.  Their life was full of adventure and joy, but also the painful loss of twins (one in utero and one born premature), a miscarriage, and ultimately a divorce.  Sadly, Amy also lost her father, her mother and her sister.  All of this while experiencing progressive loss of her vision as she was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa at age 28, a hereditary vision condition that results in blindness.      In her book Seeking Solace:  Finding Joy After Loss she shares how God healed her heart many times, often in supernatural ways.  She found, especially in the case of her babies, that God did give her so many miracles to glorify him in her healing.  He also faithfully brought people into her life that could love her and encourage her in difficult times.   Today Amy is an author, blogger, speaker, and she continues to educate others through her books and talks in spite of her vision and hearing loss.  She's a Low Vision Motivator with High Expectations.  While she features other cultures in her writing, she focuses on how God has taken her life on adventures of faith through losses right at home.  She loves to speak about a bright future no matter how dark it physically becomes.   Amy’s memoirs include: Mobility Matters: Stepping Out in Faith, Cane Confessions: The Lighter Side to Mobility and a memoir / devotional, Seeking Solace: Finding Joy After Loss.   In 2015, Amy joined a group of blind professionals who volunteer their time to help others cope with blindness at VisionAware.org, an outreach website now under the auspices of the American Printing House. In 2016, Ohio Valley University, Amy’s undergraduate institution, awarded her the Distinguished Medal of Literature for Mobility Matters. Amy is an active member of several community groups, which include Pennwriters, West PA Authors, Toastmasters, the West County Lions Club, and the National Federation of the Blind.   Jeremiah 31:13 NIV "Then young women will dance and be glad, young men and old as well. I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow."   Isaiah 42:16 NIV "I will lead the blind by ways they have not known,     along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them     and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do;     I will not forsake them."

67. Finding Joy After Loss

Her husband and high school sweetheart was found dead after he was crushed under a 300 lb piece of metal (January 3, 2012).  Although he was miraculously resuscitated, she was given no real hope for a recovery.  Against all odds, not only has Doug survived death and the brain injury, he is also far exceeding medical expectations. He’s proving the medical community wrong and that God is still in the miracle business.  Holding on to hope and standing in faith, Tammy contended for his life after hearing what she understood to be an audible voice telling her, “This will be the hardest journey of your life, but if you trust me, Doug will be okay.” Tammy shares openly: -How God prepared them for this trial -How God spoke to her so clearly throughout the experience and delivered on these promises -The miracle of Doug's recovery and the rigors of rehabilitation -The road to Doug's half marathon and the joy of encouraging others  -Interaction with possible angel with a much needed message at a low point -Importance of self care and getting counseling or help for yourself as a caregiver and spouse -Insights about the importance of allowing yourself to grieve after a traumatic experience  -A beautiful prophetic gift from Doug with a powerful message (for all of us!) -Calling to share her message in a book, how the writing became therapeutic for her -Importance of taking time to be with Jesus, surrendering and the renewing of your mind -Beautiful take away message and insight for those going through a difficult time (this is SO beautiful!) 1 Peter 1:6-7 "In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.  These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed." Tammy and Doug reside in beautiful Missoula, Montana.  Tammy is an author and speaker and is passionate about encouraging others as a Life Coach.  Loved this update from her website: "When I am not rewiring the brain, coaching, or speaking, I can be found in the kitchen trying out the latest recipe I have discovered or hiking/cross country skiing in the woods with my dogs, Lark, a Border Collie and Sidney, an Australian Shepherd. Doug and I love to float the river or ride our recumbent bikes together when the opportunity presents itself. We are optimistic Doug will be able to resume skiing in some fashion. We continue to seek out new adventures, and we love to share our miracle story of hope and healing with others." More about Tammy Dove (contact or book order): https://www.tammydove.com/

His life changed in a moment when God spoke to him through a story of a father's relentless love.  Wes Harding shares his spiritual journey from couch potato to ironman at age 40, losing 80 pounds, becoming a six-time Boston Marathon qualifier and three-time Ironman finisher, and how God is using his transformational experience to bless others today.  You will be inspired as you listen to the testimony of the Hoyt family that changed everything for Wes, the message God spoke, Wes's experience in the heart of the Boston Marathon bombings, and the beautiful reminder that your dreams ARE possible!   Wes Harding is from Sarnia, Ontario.  He is a father, husband, educator, author, athlete, and motivational speaker.  He has a degree in Religious Studies, a degree in Education and he received the Mayor's Award for making a difference in the community in 2012.  As a result of his experiences in the heart of the Boston Marathon bombings, and seeing the Hoyt family's example, Wes left his career as an educator and started up Canada's first ride-along organization created for those with disabilities, now called Team Hoyt Canada.  Their mission is to enhance the lives of individuals with disabilities through running together.   Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.   Jeremiah 29:11 NIV "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."   THE VIDEO you MUST WATCH that changed EVERYTHING for Wes: https://youtu.be/MnhDyc7AZ5U   Everything Wes Harding: http://www.wesharding.net/   Wes is President of Team Hoyt Canada: http://www.teamhoytcanada.com/   More videos from Wes and his journey: https://youtu.be/_KN7pmNGSag https://youtu.be/WK4LZPZDX6k
