Rachael Denhollander is a fierce light. That's the first thing I thought after watching her testimony at the hearing against USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar, who was convicted of molesting hundreds of girls over decades. Then, I got an early copy of her new book, "How Much is a Girl Worth?" and dug into the full story behind how Rachael became the face of the scandal that finally put Nassar behind bars. I watched the HBO documentary, "Heart of Gold" and listened to the podcast, "Believed." I saw Rachael speak at the Indiana National Prayer Breakfast and then, I got the opportunity to interview her for today's episode. Without Rachael's courage and determination to see justice served for the hundreds of girls abused by Larry … [Read more...]
Surviving Infant Loss: Brooke Martin’s Beautiful Deliverance
Brooke Martin's story captivated me after I saw it shared on social media months ago. She's a local news anchor in Indianapolis, so many people are used to seeing Brooke's face and hearing her cheerful voice on TV. Most of us were not prepared for the news she shared about her personal life, when she and her husband published a video talking about a fatal diagnosis for their unborn baby girl. Viewers watched the initial video and then followed Brooke's pregnancy journey, as she continued working on TV nearing her due date. As you'll hear in today's episode, she already knew baby Emma wouldn't survive long past birth, if at all. So how did she do it? How did Brooke share her journey so publicly, continue working and become a symbol of … [Read more...]
Run Your Own Race: Trisha Lopez-Davis on Overcoming the Trials of Life
Trisha Lopez-Davis has the warmest voice and it was an honor to invite her into my kitchen for today's interview. She's the co-founder of Hope City Church in Carmel, Indiana -- and also a speaker, author, marriage ministry leader and mom of 5. In today's interview, I speak with Trisha about her recent experience of adopting two children, after already raising three boys, and what it looks like to parent children of a different race who have seen a lot of trauma in their lives. We also talk about when Trisha and her husband, Justin, walked through infidelity in their marriage, causing their marriage and position as pastors to come to a screeching halt. How did they overcome? She tell us -- and how they ultimately began a marriage … [Read more...]
Pro-Life Feminism in Action: Destiny Herndon De La Rosa on the Border
Destiny Herndon-De La Rosa is so compelling to listen to. Get her started about being a pro-life feminist and you'll just want to keep asking questions -- so I did (which is why this interview is so long!) She's not your average pro-lifer. The girl balks at political Parties (she's an Independent), doesn't go to church ("agnostic") and is pro-life from wombxa to tomb -- focusing on everyone from the most vulnerable unborn babies to men on death row to the men, women and children in detainment camps in the border right now. A few weeks ago, Destiny's organization "New Wave Feminists" spearheaded an effort that brought together more than 50 pro-life groups to bring necessary personal hygiene and baby products to families being kept in … [Read more...]
