Significant Women with Carol McLeod | Carol Mcleod Ministries Carol McLeod

My guest today places words like an artist applying paint to a canvas. Nothing is wasted. Every word matters. Heads and hearts are equally engaged. She’s often been called a velvet covered sword because she delivers truth in such a winsome way. As a former atheist, Alicia Britt Chole’s worldview was interrupted by Jesus as she began her university studies. Today, her raw faith and love for God’s Word hold the attention of saints and skeptics alike. Lean in and listen, my friend.

Today I want to introduce you to the incomparable Bodie Thoene. She (along with her husband Brock) have authored over 70 historical fiction novels. Over 35 million copies of her books are in print in over 30 languages across the globe. I have been a fan for many, many years, and I know our conversation is going to encourage your heart today. Lean in and listen as you get to know Bodie Thoene, award-winning and best-selling author.

Enjoy this replay of one of our favorite episodes. Norah Birungi is the youngest of six children born to a Ugandan mother and Rwandan father. She was raised in Kampala, Uganda, at the height of civil conflict in the region. Her father served in the Rwandan army until he and his entire family were killed in the 1994 genocide. Listen in for the dramatic story of how God used Compassion International to completely redirect Norah’s life and lift her out of poverty.

When David Smallbone’s successful music company collapsed, he moved his family from Australia to the United States in search of a brighter future. With nothing more than their six children, their suitcases, and their love of music, David and his pregnant wife Helen set out to rebuild their lives from the ground up. My guest today is Helen Smallbone…you might know her better as the mom of Grammy-winning Rebecca St. James and For King and Country’s Luke and Joel Smallbone. Her remarkable story is going to encourage you today how important a mother’s faith is in the face of all odds. Lean in and listen as you get to know this incredible mama, who’s story is the basis for the upcoming film, Unsung Hero.

My guest today went on her first mission trip when she was just 14 and now Meredith Cook has her Masters of Divinity in Missiology, the study of missions. I can’t wait for you to lean in and listen to her incredible story and how being missionally minded impacts her as a wife, a mom, and a scholar. I encourage you to grab a copy of her fantastic new book, “Go Tell Everyone: 9 Missionaries Who Shared the Good News” for the little ones in your life. Grab a copy for an upcoming baby shower or get a copy for your church nursery. This book is going to help instill the great commission into the heart of the next generation.
