Today's podcast honors God as being the Restorer and the Redeemer within relationships that seem irreparably broken. Kate Galat, from our West Cobb community (located just outside Atlanta, Georgia), shares her story of pursuing the Lord amidst the hardships within her marriage.

From separation to transformation through God and His Word to ultimately reconciliation with her husband, Kate beautifully illustrates what the Lord can do with a surrendered heart and how the unexplainable can happen when we position ourselves under His care.

VERSE OF THE WEEK:

"You will be a crown of splendor in the LORD's hand, a royal diadem in the hand of your God Isaiah 62:3

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK:

How is the Lord calling you to surrender to Him in your relationships? Practice the art of forgiveness and "out-serving" those around you.

What if God is most powerfully found in the midst of the messiness of your sinful life? Today's storyteller reminds us of this truth.

Helen Hanson Smith, from our Fairhope, Alabama community group, shares her journey of struggling with alcohol addiction and trying to fight the battle on her own. In and out of rehab programs for years, it wasn't until Helen Hanson surrendered it all to God and found her desires were met only in Him that the Lord could heal her and take what was once her mess and make it His message.

VERSE OF THE WEEK:

"Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK:

What battles are you fighting today? Are you fighting alone or with God? Allow God to fight for you!

1/7/2026

Happy New Year! At the StoryTellers Live ministry, we are expectant and excited to see what the Lord has in store for 2026, and we're kicking the year off with a beautiful reminder of the Lord's faithful provision.

Kristin Gee, from our community group in Charleston, South Carolina, shares her story of walking through an unexpected and uncertain financial season brought on by the pandemic of 2020. Throughout her journey, you will hear how the Lord worked on Kristin's heart and faith and ultimately led her into a vocation that gave her purpose in who and how He created her to be. This story will remind you of the importance of resting in God's promises and trusting in His plans, as sometimes He likes to work in surprising ways!

VERSE OF THE WEEK:

"Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails." Proverbs 19:21

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK:

Where are you finding your comfort? Are you finding it in your comfortable life or in God's promises?
