God's Love Song with Darla Hightower - 5
11/19/24 • 32 min
On this week's episode, we welcome Darla Hightower, as she opens up about her life's work in nursing, ministry, and music. Darla's new book, "God's Love Song," forms the heart of our discussion, revealing how a single divinely inspired song became a source of spiritual healing and victory over life's struggles. We discuss the theme of redemption in her writing, which serves as a heartfelt daily devotional for anyone on the path to spiritual growth.
Join us as we recount Darla's mission trip to El Salvador, where faith guided her to a prison environment fraught with danger from MS-13 gangs. With a fearless heart and scripture from Isaiah 61:1-3 as her guide, Darla shares stories of unexpected compassion and connections made with young men behind bars. Witness how acts of love transcend physical barriers and offer eternal hope, leaving us all with inspired anticipation for what awaits in the hereafter.
Reflect on the serenity found in worship as we talk about the contrasts between personal and corporate experiences with God. Darla shares how a quiet moment led to the creation of a song and her book, offering a sanctuary of rest for those burdened by life's chaos. With wisdom and encouragement, we invite you to pursue the callings in your heart, recognizing that your obedience might just be the blessing someone else needs.
