Perspectives Into Practice Podcast
October 7, 2025
When God says go, even when your body says no, what do you do?
In this deeply inspiring episode, I sit down with Lauren, a courageous educator whose life was interrupted by a sudden and unexplained health crisis just as she was stepping into her dream of launching a micro school. Overnight, she lost the ability to walk and speak. But instead of surrendering to fear or giving up, she chose obedience. Even from a hospital bed, she kept moving forward, trusting God's voice over the voices of doubt.
Lauren shares how she clung to scriptures like John 8:36, "Who the Son sets free is free indeed", and Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Her story is raw, honest, and filled with grace moments that remind us: God's plan isn't halted by hardship. From the emotional toll on her daughter, to navigating recovery to launching her school with renewed faith, Lauren's journey is a powerful testimony of what it means to say yes to God even when everything in the physical says stop.
If you've ever questioned whether it's worth pressing forward, this episode will stir your faith and encourage your heart. Because sometimes, the miracle isn't in the healing, but in the obedience that comes before it.
