Ever since the idea of podcasting came into my little brain,I wanted to share Rebekah’s story. Our friendship began in the late 90’s. Since most of you have never heard of Rebekah I’ve waited patiently; saving her story until I had gained your “podcast trust”.
Her story is that. (very). good.
I realize her circumstances may be different from yours. But the conclusion she came to is the same one I pray we all draw.
To surrender.
To get to the end of ourselves and not relying on others for fulfillment. To find complete satisfaction and hope in God alone. Because…
The goal is not to pursue a relationship. The goal is to pursue the Lord. -Rebekah Greer
Halfway through podcast hear about the hard choice Rebekah had to make…to walk or to stay in her marriage.
I knew that I knew that I knew that God had freed me from Egypt… -Rebekah Greer
Most importantly, listen and discover one of the best (and simplest) ways you can support those who are hurting around you.
Sometimes I just needed a word for a day…really, that’s how I existed for months.-Rebekah Greer
Rebekah wonderfully communicates how our hope is found connecting with God over any other relationship.
May her story communicate the big story God wants you to hear, the beautiful story of Redeeming Love.
*I apologize for the random buzzing sounds during the podcast…we could not figure out how to prevent them. Fortunately, I think her story and insights are so compelling you won’t even notice (crossing fingers).

Thanks heather once again for an awesome podcast! Loved to hear what was said about single moms ministry- so close to my heart!
thanks erin for letting me know you enjoyed it! Always hard to know who listens to the podcast. Wasn’t what Rebekah shared so interesting. Such simple ways we can support single moms…
Thank you for this. I’m currently going through a divorce that is not what I want, but necessary at this time. This brought a little peace to my heart.
Lisa, thank you for being bold and coming here to share a piece of your story. Prayed…”Lord, wrap your capable arms around Lisa. Continue to fill her with peace that passes understanding. May she know you in a deep and intimate through this journey she now finds herself. May she find hope in You alone. Surround her with loved ones who direct her eyes to You. Steady her feet when it feels like she is slipping. Bless her Lord through this trial. Amen.”
