When you deal with a chronic illness, it's easy to question God and wonder if He even sees you. Everyone around goes on with their lives while you are left struggling with how to live each day.   This is exactly what today's storyteller, Sheryl Trawick, from our Fairhope, Alabama community, experienced after being diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome, an autoimmune disorder where her body was attacking her peripheral nervous system (the control center of her body's communication system).    However, instead of staying stuck in her thoughts of despair, Sheryl decided to pour herself into God - seeking healing verses of Scripture to speak over her body. Through a whisper from the Lord, her faith began to shift, and a miracle of healing began to happen. This a story that is going to remind you of the power found in God's Word!    IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: - Scripture can serve as medicine for the soul as well as the body.  - Peace is only found through the presence of God.  - God is still in the business of performing miracles.   Links:   Sheryl's Bible verses    Listen to a similar story: Ep. 313- Emily Holman: “Filling My Lamp with Oil”   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Sheryl and our past storytellers.   Become a Patreon Insider to access bonus content~ including a bonus story from Emily Moore from our Vestavia community!   Register for our Finding God in the Details: A Guide to Discerning His Voice and Discovering Your Story workshop being offered in-person on June 18th, 6:00-8:30 PM CST   *Future dates- Online on July 8th; 9:30-11:30 AM CST and August 20th; 9:15-11:15 AM CST Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.   Sign up to receive StoryTellers Live's weekly newsletter for updates and details on our live gatherings.

This message was given as an impromptu sermon on May 18, 2025 at Mt Olivet Country Church of Fairhope, PA. I had planned to preach from a different text but changed when I sensed a call to preach on a different subject just minutes before stepping up to the pulpit. Text: Matt 25:31-26

One of the best things you can do for your life and leadership today is listen to or watch this podcast. If you do not or choose to ignore it due to its content, you will be making a huge mistake. Understanding this episode today will lead you to have a very healthy understanding of our times, and also help you flourish personally, as well lead you to lead yourself, your family, your business, your church, or your organization in a much more productive way now and the future. So stay tuned, buckle up, and get ready…this is Ronnie Floyd, and welcome to the 48th episode of our podcast.In just a moment, I will discuss a subject I have never addressed and share some information with you that you may not have heard or read about before. I promise you that today's podcast will be one of the most helpful podcasts I have done with you. Just a quick note from our past week: Jeana and I spent three days in Orlando, Florida, for an annual conference we attend called The Mega-Metro Conference for Pastors and Wives. I have now participated in this conference for thirty-seven consecutive years. We prioritize it because God always blesses and encourages us when we gather for this event. We provided leadership for this conference in three different years during my Cross Church tenure. We are thankful to Pastor Chris Bell and his wife, Nan, who served this year by leading and designing the program for these various gatherings at the conference. Pastor Chris Bell is the Lead Pastor of the multi-campus 3 CIRCLE CHURCH based in Fairhope, Alabama. Now, let's get right into my podcast for this week. While conversations about the various generations occur daily, they are usually about the younger generations, such as Generation Alpha, Born 2013-2025; Generation Z, Born 1997-2012; and, of course, the Millenials, born 1981-1996. While we must always be aware and committed to the next generations, we can never forget the others. For example, where would we be today without Generation X, Born 1965-1980 and now in their forties to late fifties? Then, we have the Baby Boomers Generation, Born 1946-1964, now in their sixties to eighties. Furthermore, what about the Silent Generation, Born in 1928-1945, now in their eighties and nineties? Finally, we cannot forget The Centenarians, people born in 1925 or earlier, and some 100,000+ of these people live in the United States.

“He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.” Psalm‬ ‭40‬:‭2‬   Life is full of “pits” - some self-imposed, some at the hands of others, and some at the expense of living in a fallen world.  But, be encouraged! Today's storyteller is going to remind you of God's deepest desire - to take you out of that “pit” and set your feet on solid, secure, and safe ground.   Sarah Robinson, from our Fairhope, Alabama community, paints a vivid picture of her life story as she shares her (and her family's) struggles with alcoholism and loss. The journey she takes you on will assure you of the pursuing love of your Heavenly Father who specializes in the grace-filled gifts of redemption and restoration.   IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: - God is constantly speaking to you through people, events, and life circumstances. - Hope has two sisters - anger and courage… anger in the way things are and courage that they       don't have to stay that way. - Pursue godly things, and you will leave a legacy!

Devon Harris is a female tech leader for OberaConnect based in Fairhope, Alabama. It's a company she started with her father and now includes her sister. Their growth has been intense, fueled by the rise in demand for tech services by small businesses and regional and local governement clients and Devon and her team's remarkable commitment to client relationships. All companies claim relationships are key to business - I've heard it a thousand times - but OberaConnect takes it to a new level. While sitting across from me in the studio, I got the sense that what Devon and her team do regarding relationships is indeed different. Meet Devon, hear her story, hear me argue that the solutions technology claims to offer are now null and void - there is no longer any convenience in tech - and her reply.  OberaConnect - 251.308.4592

“Jesus did many other things as well.

But unlearning them? Not easy at all.   In the midst of relationship hurts, financial rock-bottoms, and even the murder of her mother, Tara finally found that surrendering in suffering is the true way to peace. Listen and learn that freedom comes when you trust God with your deepest despair and live with dependence on Him.   In this episode, you will learn:   – When you have the right view of your circumstances, peace and hope are possible.   – Self-reliant roads lead to dead ends.

  Are you curious about your faith? Lisa Fischer of our Fairhope community will encourage you to ask all the questions. Listen as she shares a hard but happy retelling of finding the Lord—in none other than a college biology class.   This story of curiosity and conversion starts with Lisa's Jewish beginnings, and includes a childhood touched by tremendous trauma: alcoholism, addiction, divorce and loss.   In her dysfunctional family and dysfunctional life, Lisa longed to be known. Yet when she met Jesus, she discovered her name was written in the Lamb's Book of Life and being known by Him was all she needed.   In this episode you will learn: - God is always pursuing you and longs for you to have a relationship with Him. - You are intimately known by God. (Psalm 139) - As a child of God your sin is on the cross and behind you, and there is nothing you can do to separate yourself from the love of Christ!   Links:   Listen to a similar story~ Carol Bevil- Ep. 107: “A Jewish Heritage”   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Lisa    Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible study series   Become a Patreon Insider to access bonus content~ including a Story Within the Story with Lisa Fischer!

In “Reel It In: Building Local Markets for Fresh Fish" Gravy producer Irina Zhorov looks for fresh fish in shops along the Gulf of Mexico, where it should be plentiful but can be surprisingly difficult to find. Between 80 to 90% of seafood in the U.S. is imported, despite the country's generous coasts and well-managed fisheries. Even in seaside communities where the promise of a fresh catch draws tourists to eat out, many restaurants serve thawed imports.  In Fairhope, Alabama, Fairhope Fish House wanted something different. Owners Dustin Bedgood and Jake Pose go out for short fishing trips—usually just 24 hours—and fish primarily using rod and reel. They're only open when they have a fresh catch to sell, and they let people know about their hours through an email listserv. They handle the fish with care, practicing ikejime, a Japanese method of instantly killing and draining blood from the animal. That extends the shelf life of the fish and gives it a cleaner taste.  Despite their various measures to deliver a fresher, more sustainable, and tastier product to customers, the flesh is nothing without the story they tell about it.  In addition to Fairhope Fish House, Zhorov talks to Chef David Ramey, of Red or White in Fairhope, about why he pays a premium for the House's fish and why his customers appreciate it. Journalist Paul Greenberg explains that eating from one's local waters used to be the norm, but now requires focused effort and knowledge. Local fish is not as available in stores and it can be difficult to figure out where seafood is coming from in the globalized market. Local Catch Network founder Joshua Stoll and researcher Sahir Advani provide context about other shops that are choosing to focus on local markets. Some 12% of fishers market directly to consumers in one way or another—more than producers in agriculture—and it's a model they say creates sustainable, community-focused economies.

For many years, Kim Hughes of our Fairhope community lived a try-harder lifestyle in which the effort she put forth was equal to the emptiness she felt. Half-commitments to the Lord left her striving for comfort in worldly things.   But when He shook up her plans and pursued her heart, Kim finally found herself pursuing Him in return—and also the rich relationship she'd missed out on.   In this episode, you will learn:   – When you receive His grace instead of trying to earn it, you walk closer to Jesus.   – If the Lord has removed you from your comfort zone, pay attention to what His purpose is in your life.   – Until Jesus is enough, nothing ever will be.   Attend a StoryTellers Live gathering!   Give to StoryTellers Live Access more content and become a Patreon Insider
