Many people know about God without actually knowing Him personally. That was Jack Cowart’s story as he grew up in the Catholic church.

Jack also struggled with intense depression in high school. It got so bad during his sophomore year that he decided to commit suicide. While Jack was holding a knife and preparing to slit his wrists, his dad walked in the room and snatched the knife away right in time.

Years later, in college, Jack hit rock bottom and decided to ask God for help with his depression. He had no idea that this quick prayer would be the beginning of his new life. Jack met and married his wife, Kenna, who God sent as a helper on his faith journey. Jack was also completely healed of his depression and able to stop taking medication. He has also discovered that his trial has empowered him to make an impact in the lives of people around him.

Jack Cowart is our guest on this episode of Limitless Spirit. I hope you’ll enjoy his humor, honesty, and love for Jesus.

2:35 – Jack’s knew about God through the Catholic church, but didn’t have a relationship with Him. He also struggled with getting bullied and not having many friends growing up.

5:28 – The battle with depression is too intense, and Jack decides that he wants to take his own life

8:24 – In college, Jack decided it was time to try out the whole “God thing”

12:15 – Jack meets Kenna, his future wife, and sees how beautiful her relationship with Jesus is

17:38 – Jack finally surrenders his life to Jesus and what it felt like as God healed his depression

22:21 – An awakening to missions happened as Jack got to know Jesus and grew more in his faith

24:25 – Jack’s mission trip to Macedonia and the incredible opportunity he had to share his testimony and minister to a suicidal woman

“That saved my life. I mean, me being laid off saved my life.”

From losing her job to finding her greater purpose, Ellen Yao knows that God has been at work in her life. After immigrating from South Korea and growing up in church, surrounded by Christian friends and family, Ellen tried to find her own way and identity as a young adult. But everything she tried, from partying to climbing the corporate ladder, left her feeling empty inside. That prompted a desperate prayer from Ellen, asking God to show up and prove He was real. And He did, in a way that Ellen never could have expected. After being laid off, she gave her life to Jesus, went back to school, met her husband, and found herself on an adventure of a lifetime, her very first trip, to Iraq in the middle of war with ISIS. This is an incredible experience you’ll have to hear to believe.

2:45 – Ellen’s family immigrates to the US from South Korea and converts to Christianity

6:43 – In college Ellen drifted away from church in pursuit of her own identity and worldview

10:45 – Ellen gets into “ricing” cars and partying, and then climbs the “corporate ladder” and pursues “stable life”

12:51 – Ellen’s prayer for God to show up leads to several huge changes in her life

19:18 – During the war with ISIS in Iraq Ellen feels called by God to go there

22:43 – Memories of going to Iraq and the launch of her new “life of purpose”

29:31 –Ellen’s greater purpose in this season

On this episode of the Limitless Spirit podcast, you’ll hear DeAnna Moore’s story.

In her young adulthood she struggled with mental illness, alcoholism, and the tragic consequences of the lifestyle that went along with substance abuse. Only later in life she found out that her father was not the man who raised her and that she was subject to sever abuse as an infant due to generational sins and secrets in her family.

But it wasn’t God’s plan for DeAnna to be stuck in her misery forever. He directed her through series of encounters to get involved with AA and set her on the path to become a nurse. More importantly, Jesus Christ began to heal DeAnna once she began a relationship with Him. Then, she found her greater purpose in life – to serve God as a medical missionary.

3:21 – DeAnna’s childhood struggles with her family and mental health

7:20 – Trying and “failing miserably, over and over again” to get through life on her own strength leads DeAnna to terrible addiction and patterns of abuse

8:39 – Because of all she went through, DeAnna finds Christ but continues to battle her sinful nature

11:02 – Getting diagnosed as an alcoholic, going to AA, beginning to turn her life around

14:28 – DeAnna’s path to becoming a nurse, finding her biological father, facing the generational sins of her family, and marrying her “true love”

21:29 – The origins of DeAnna’s missionary focus and stories from her journeys

25:55 – How her life has changed and how she’s found her greater purpose

“Do things God’s way and you’ll be taken care of, you’ll be provided for.”
“We thought we needed money or gold and actually what we needed was wisdom and blessing of the Lord.”

Limitless Spirit - Episode 95: Allowing God to redeem your past

When you’re in a difficult season in life, it can be hard to recognize that God is still working in your life. Letting go of the pain and trauma can become a lifelong battle. It does not have to be, however.
This week, our host Helen Todd speaks with Tammarra Kirkland, an experienced social worker, an adjunct professor at Liberty University, and a missionary.

As a child, Tammarra’s mother and stepfather were drug addicts, and her father was a drug-dealer. But amid all the crime and drugs, the real danger to Tammarra was growing up without feeling loved and cared for by her parents. As an adult, Tammarra fell into drug use, lived with unresolved trauma, and nearly joined Islam as a solution to her problems. But after a Christian co-worker encouraged her to attend church, Tammarra slowly began to pursue God and allow Him to heal her brokenness.

After finding healing and calling in Christ, Tammarra spent 18 years helping the hurting people as a social worker for the State of New Jersey, and in our recent mission trip to Moldova, she was able to share her testimony of redemption from drugs with a group of men at a drug rehab facility. In this episode, you’ll hear more about Tammarra’s story and how God is using her to change the lives of others.

4:50 - Growing up in difficult circumstances

7:35 - Living in danger

9:35 - How trauma changed Tammarra’s life, and how she deals with it now

15:55 - Nearly converting to Islam

23:35 - How God uses Tammarra to change lives

32:00 - The advice that Tammarra has to allow God to redeem your past

Sometimes God has a calling on our lives that we don’t recognize and perhaps don’t want. In His infinite love God rearranges our lives to bring this calling to surface, make it very clear. Then we have a choice to accept or reject it.

In this episode our host Helen Todd interviews LeAnn Remmers who at a very early age discovered her talent for signing and dreamt of a career as a singer. She had a promising start with the opportunities to pursue record labels and to go on tours. But at 19 years old, she found out that she had vocal damage that would require surgery and at least a year without singing, which could end her musical career. It seemed like her dream was gone and the pain of losing it caused her to drift away from God.

LeAnn tells her story and shares how God reached out to her to show her that He had different plans for her life and showed her that His calling gave her everything she desired. You’ll hear her entire story in this episode of the Limitless Spirit Podcast.
3:55 - Growing up as a singer

In John 16, verse 33, Jesus reminds us that we will have trouble in this world, but He encourages us to take heart because He has overcome the world. Sometimes troubles become even deeper after we accept Christ.

In this episode, our host Helen Todd speaks with Tony Stephens, whose story shows us that we can have peace in Christ even when we go through trials. Tony was raised in church but dealt with anger and bitterness after losing both of his parents at a young age. But after deciding to return to church as an adult in a rocky marriage, he was encountered by God and baptized in the Holy Spirit. His trials wouldn’t end there but would only get worse. Just before being sent to Iraq in the special forces after 9/11, Tony lost his job, his wife filed for divorce, and he was homeless for a period. Learning how to deal with adversity and heal from bitterness and anger Tony discovered a practice that transformed his life. You’ll hear his entire story in this episode of the Limitless Spirit Podcast.
