In this moving episode of Paths to Glory, we follow the remarkable journey of a woman whose life was shaped by instability, searching, and a profound need for belonging. Growing up in Arizona with frequent moves and little stability, she was drawn to structure wherever she could find it. After a determined path into the military and a series of life-altering decisions, she found herself stationed in Germany, where God began to call her heart in ways she could never have anticipated.

Through a series of divinely orchestrated encounters, she was led to a church where she discovered the message of baptism in Jesus' name—a revelation that would change her life. Facing intense opposition from family, a dissolved marriage, and the challenges of starting over, her resilience and newfound faith sustained her. When she finally returned to Arizona, she found her home in Faith Temple (now Valley Pentecostal Church), where she has remained a faithful attendee for over 42 years.

Join us as we explore her powerful testimony of survival, security, and God’s perfect timing. Her journey reminds us that no matter the struggles we face, God’s divine plan always leads us to the place we truly belong. This is her Path to Glory.

In this riveting episode of Paths to Glory, we uncover the powerful story of a woman whose life was marked by turmoil, abandonment, and overwhelming odds. From a childhood marred by family struggles, court battles, and mental health misdiagnoses, her journey seemed destined for heartbreak. But through the darkest chapters of her life, a divine thread was woven, leading her to an unexpected encounter with God.

Abandoned by those meant to protect her, shuffled between group homes, and overmedicated to numb her pain, she had every reason to give up. Yet, God had another plan. A series of unlikely encounters and a single invitation to church would transform her life in ways she never dreamed possible. In a miraculous turn, she found the love, peace, and connection she had longed for her entire life.

But her trials were far from over. Shortly after receiving the Holy Ghost, she faced a tragedy that would shake her to the core. Through it all, she clung to her newfound faith, finding strength in a God who had been there all along.

Join us as we delve into her story—a path of resilience, faith, and the unbreakable power of redemption. This is an episode that reminds us that no matter how broken the journey, God is always able to bring beauty from ashes.

In this powerful episode of Paths to Glory, we explore the incredible journey of a man whose life spiraled from the rebellious world of Punk Rock and the violence of the “Straight Edge” movement into the depths of addiction, and ultimately, to divine redemption. He grew up around the church but chose a path of rebellion, leading him into the grip of heroin addiction and a life teetering on destruction. Yet, it was in his darkest moments that he found himself pulled back to church, where one moment of complete surrender changed everything.

His story of freedom from addiction through the infilling of the Holy Ghost is nothing short of miraculous. But that’s only part of this episode. Across thousands of miles, she was living a very different life—born into a family of Apostolic royalty, serving God from a young age in the mission fields of Honduras. In a twist that only God could orchestrate, their paths would cross, leading to a love story rooted in faith and destiny.

Tune in to hear how these two lives, shaped by vastly different experiences, converged in an incredible testimony of grace, healing, and God’s divine purpose. This is their Path to Glory.

Season One Finale: Reflections on the Journey

In the finale of Season One of Paths to Glory, we take a moment to reflect on the diverse and inspiring journeys we've shared. Each path, unique in its challenges and triumphs, reminds us of the profound truth found in Proverbs 3:6: “In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.” This verse speaks to the heart of our podcast’s mission—to explore how acknowledging God in every decision and action can provide clarity, guidance, and a sense of purpose through life’s many crossroads.

Throughout this season, we’ve heard stories of faith, redemption, and transformation. We’ve learned that a path is not just a physical direction but a spiritual and moral journey, shaped by the choices we make, the values we uphold, and our willingness to seek God’s guidance. Each guest has shared how their decisions have led them to a deeper understanding of God’s grace and mercy, highlighting the importance of walking a path aligned with His will.

As we close this season, we encourage you to think about your own path. How often do we judge others without understanding the full story? Proverbs 13:15 reminds us of the value of wisdom and understanding, urging us to act as “faithful ambassadors” of truth and compassion rather than rushing to judgment.

Our hope is that the stories shared this season not only inspire those unfamiliar with the truth but also encourage those who have strayed to return to the path of glory. Each narrative is a testament to God’s redeeming power, proving that there is no challenge too great, no relationship too broken, and no path too lost for His guidance and love.

Join us as we look back on the incredible journeys of Season One and prepare for even more inspiring stories in Season Two, starting November 2nd, 2024. Thank you for being a part of this journey. Remember, every path is unique, every journey has its purpose, and with faith, we can navigate wherever the path leads us next.
