Nearly 40 years of marriage.Global ministry.One unwavering center: their shared faith.

On this episode of the Open Air Podcast, Colonels Allan & Fiona Hofer share what it looks like to lead together across cultures, seasons, and nearly four decades of marriage.

This is a conversation about covenant over career, forgiveness over resentment, and choosing love, again and again.

If you’re navigating marriage, ministry, or shared calling, this one will stay with you.

In this powerful and deeply reflective episode of Open Air, host Ashley Escobar sits down with Colonel Dr. Janet Munn—holiness teacher, justice advocate, global leader, and lifelong Salvationist—for a conversation that feels both prophetic and pastoral. From her early formation shaped by strong women of faith, to her journey into The Salvation Army through grief, resistance, and ultimately calling, Janet shares how God weaves redemption through even the most painful seasons.

Together, they explore the intersection of holiness and justice, the biblical foundation for women’s leadership, and what it truly means to belong in the Kingdom of God. Janet reflects on her leadership at the International Social Justice Commission, her time representing The Salvation Army at the United Nations, and the sacred responsibility of using power rooted in love. This episode also names the hard truths—where institutions fall short, where women are still held back—and offers a compelling vision of what the Church could become if women’s full calling was embraced without hesitation.

Tender, challenging, and hope-filled, this conversation speaks directly to the next generation of women in ministry: stay close to Jesus, say it anyway, and don’t forget those whose voices still need to be heard.
