    Facing trauma and undergoing an unexpected brain surgery, Jessie found herself at a crossroads. Despite a comfortable and fulfilling life, she felt a compelling urge to step into discomfort and pursue a ministry that serves the needs of children, all while embracing her love for the performing arts.

    In this episode, we explore the power of uncomfortable obedience and the profound growth that emerges when we surrender our plans to God's divine timing. Jessie's journey serves as a powerful reminder to trust in the unfolding narrative orchestrated by a loving and purposeful God.

    About Jessie Beebe:

    With over twenty-five years of experience in ministry and the performing arts, Jessie has established herself as a dynamic speaker, pastor, playwright, and leader. Holding an ordination as a pastor and a degree in Theatre Education, Jessie has served in various capacities, including seven years as a children's pastor.

    One of the unique highlights of Jessie's career was being chosen as the host and spokesperson for VeggieTales Live, where she embarked on a nationwide 30-city tour, showcasing her talents and performing songs from her album "Pump Up the Praise." Her international endeavors took her to Nepal, Africa, Haiti, and Honduras, where she used her performances to spread the message of evangelism alongside esteemed evangelists like Luis Palau.

    Jessie has had the honor of ministering and preaching at renowned churches such as T.D. Jakes' The Potter's House, Tony Evans' Oak Cliff Bible Church, and Robert Morris' Gateway Church. She has also made impactful appearances at festivals like KLTY's Celebrate Freedom, T.D. Jakes' MegaFest, and CreationFest West.

    Through her non-profit organization, Stand Ministries, Jessie has dedicated herself to training young leaders on how to utilize their performing arts gifts for Jesus. Her passion for creative expression led her to write, direct, and produce plays such as "No Place Like Home" and "Forward to the Past." Recently, she collaborated with co-author Janet Bloss to transform "No Place Like Home" into an illustrated young adult novel reminiscent of the classic "Wizard of Oz" tale.

    Beyond her impressive artistic achievements, Jessie has emerged as a powerful voice in addressing mental health issues within the context of faith. After personally battling anxiety and depression for a significant portion of her ministry career, she embarked on a determined journey to find emotional healing and freedom. Through deep study, personal reflection, and an unyielding commitment to her own well-being, Jessie discovered a path to healing that she now shares with others.

    Her forthcoming book, "Absolute Resolve," chronicles her transformative journey and provides readers with practical tools to overcome anxiety and embrace abundant freedom. Drawing from her own experiences, Jessie teaches readers how to identify and replace deeply rooted lies with the liberating truth found in God's Word.

    Passionate about supporting individuals dealing with mental health challenges, Jessie's book serves as an introductory resource for those seeking inner healing in small groups, churches, and individual settings. By applying her "Stop - Look - Listen" approach, readers can uncover and address the lies they believe, paving the way for personal growth and a hopeful future.

    Jessie's remarkable journey has been shared on various platforms, including her recurring guest appearances on the Vinelife Ministry show of the Fishbowl Radio Network. She is eager to continue sharing her story and the tools that have empowered her to find greater freedom and abundance. Jessie is grateful to have embarked on this transformative journey alongside her supportive husband and two incredible daughters.

    Stay tuned for the upcoming release of Jessie's book, "No Place Like Home," which invites readers to embark on a unique and empowering journey that combines introspection, healing from the past, and embracing a purposeful present to pursue a promising future.

Through sheer resilience, Debra overcame her hardships by facing them head-on and leaning on her faith. As she grew in strength, courage, and wisdom, she realized her purpose in life was to help other women navigate their own journey through divorce. Her ultimate goal is to ensure that women don't get stuck in the pain of their past and find their purpose sooner, enabling them to begin their healing journey. With Debra's guidance, you can walk through the aftermath of divorce with grace and come out on the other side stronger and more resilient.

Having experienced her own pain and heartbreak, she is passionate about helping others who are currently going through similar struggles. Debra believes that the people she can help today are the same people she was not too long ago. Her message is grounded in the knowledge that God brings trials and tribulations into our lives to help us become better, not bitter. She is living proof that pain can be used for a better purpose, and she works towards that goal every day with God's help. Debra has discovered that it's possible to find joy even in the midst of sorrow, and she is committed to helping others do the same.
