  • The Power of Faith to Transform Lives with Jay Lowder
    Nov 20 2024

    Send us a text

    Listen to a fascinating and inspiring story from national speaker and author, Jay Lowder. His Crossroads assembly program for students has been presented to over 2 million students and he has participated in over 450 conferences across the country. He's authentic, humble, and an inspiring follower of Jesus. I thoroughly enjoyed the time with him and you will too.

    Jay Lowder, founder of Harvest Ministries, candidly shares his journey from a double life steeped in personal turmoil to a mission dedicated to spreading hope and faith worldwide. Raised in a church-going family, Jay found himself grappling with depression and suicidal thoughts, only to be saved by an unexpected intervention that led him to a life of purpose.

    Throughout our conversation, Jay recounts pivotal moments that propelled him toward a transformative encounter with Jesus. Jay's experience challenges common misconceptions within faith communities, urging listeners to embrace their imperfections and find strength in their brokenness. This episode underscores the importance of authenticity and transparency, highlighting how personal struggles can become platforms for helping others.

    Jay’s journey is a testament to the idea that past scars and traumas do not limit one's potential for purpose but can instead be sources of hope and strength. Jay’s story offers a compelling reminder of the transformative power of faith and the profound impact of embracing one’s true self.

  • Susan Binkley: Reuniting Families and Restoring Lives
    Nov 13 2024

    Send us a text

    Meet Susan Binkley, the author of "From My Front Row Seat: A Collection of Stories from My Time Working Alongside Women in Recovery."

    For the past two decades, Susan Binkley has been faithfully working to restore the lives of women and their children who have suffered from trauma, addiction, and abuse. In the mid-90s, Susan had a powerful, God-given dream that described in great detail how one might put together a program like Blue Monarch. At the time Susan realized this dream was like no other, but she didn’t understand the significance of it until years later when the dream miraculously came together in real life. Blue Monarch’s long-term, residential treatment program is unique in its dual focus on both the mother’s and the child’s recovery, creating a path toward lasting transformation and freedom from destructive cycles. Through the power of faith, prayer, and community, Susan has witnessed nearly 1,000+ women and children find healing, with over 350 children reunited with their mothers, who had previously lost custody.

    In addition to its holistic recovery program, Blue Monarch empowers women through its on-site business, Out of the Blue Granola, a hand-crafted product distributed in major grocery chains like Whole Foods and Publix. All of the women who work to craft the Out of the Blue products are graduates or residents of Blue Monarch and each package of granola has a card with the testimony/picture of a Blue Monarch graduate enclosed.
