Title: Jesus Stories- Steve Chatman About the Episode: In this week's episode of Rising Above with Becky Davidson, the Jesus Stories series continues with a conversation featuring Steve Chatman. Steve shares his personal Jesus story and reflects on the ways Jesus has been present through both the joyful and challenging seasons of his life. His experiences offer a thoughtful reminder of Jesus' faithfulness, even in moments that feel overwhelming or uncertain.   About Steve Steve and his wife, Lori, are parents to five children and grandparents to three. As parents to two daughters with Down syndrome, they have long been connected to the special needs community. Steve has been ministering to families since 1993, serves as Rising Above's Vice President, and hosts the Rising Above Dads podcast.   Related Links Rising Above Dads podcast   Moment of Reflection Steve talked about how there are moments when it feels like Jesus isn't there—but just like when Jesus was in the boat with His disciples during the storm, He is with us. Even though Jesus was asleep and the disciples were frustrated and felt like He didn't care… He was still right there in the boat. So now, for our moment of reflection: Where in your life have you felt like Jesus is “asleep in the boat”? Where has He felt distant? Take some time to invite Jesus into those places. Ask Him to show you how He's been present—even if you couldn't see it at the time.

Title: Jesus Stories- Mikayla McKenzie About the Episode: This episode of the Jesus Stories series features a meaningful and insightful conversation with Mikayla McKenzie. Mikayla and her husband, Brandon, have been married for 11 years and have three children—Bear (8), Daisy (5), and Georgia (3). Their family recently made a bold move to Maryville, Tennessee, to plant a church, and Mikayla shares how God has guided and provided for them throughout that transition. The episode also walks through the McKenzies' journey with their son Bear, who has profound special needs and complex medical challenges, including cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism, and deafness. In the past year, he has had more than 20 hospital stays and undergone over five surgeries. Mikayla offers a clear, honest perspective on navigating ongoing hardship while remaining rooted in faith. If you're looking for a story that is both real and encouraging, this episode offers a thoughtful look at resilience, trust, and God's steady presence in every season. Related Links: Restore Retreat Experience    Moment of Reflection:  And now for this week's Moment of Reflection. Mikayla talked about seeing God's goodness in ways that may look different from what the world would consider “good.” As special-needs parents, it can be challenging to see the good in the hard we face each day, but God's goodness isn't limited to easy moments or tidy outcomes. Sometimes it shows up in the quiet ways He sustains us, the peace that slips in when we're exhausted, the people He places around us, or the strength we didn't know we had. So take a moment to pause today. Where have you seen God's goodness — even if it looked different than you expected? What small glimmers of grace showed up in your week?

Jesus Stories- Sandy Ramsey Trayvick About the Episode In the second installment of the Jesus Stories series, Becky Davidson welcomes back longtime friend Sandy Ramsey-Trayvick for a deeply personal conversation about faith, resilience, and the unexpected ways God meets us in our hardest seasons. Sandy shares the profound journey of raising her son Miles, whose complex health and developmental challenges became the catalyst for a deeper, more intimate walk with God. Through honest reflections and tender storytelling, Sandy and Becky explore the beauty that can emerge from adversity—how pain can lead to spiritual growth, how God shows up in moments of fear and uncertainty, and how joy can be found in the most unlikely places. Together, they remind us that no family's story is beyond God's redemption and that even the most disrupted dreams can reveal His faithfulness. This episode offers encouragement, hope, and a powerful reminder that you are never alone on your journey. About Sandy: Sandy and her husband of 33 years live in New Jersey and are parents to three young adult children. Her journey as a special-needs mom, caregiver, and advocate began 24 years ago after her son's childhood illness left him multiply disabled. Today, Sandy serves as a Certified Professional Coach with a passion for helping special needs parents discover the powerful story God is writing through their own unique journeys. She is also a writer and the author of When Dreams Are Disrupted – A Story of God's Faithfulness. Learn more about Sandy, her work, and her blog at www.UNDisabledLIVES.org and on Instagram @undisabled_lives. Related Links: Even If   Moment of Reflection: Sandy talked about the difference between knowing about Jesus and actually having a relationship with Him. It's easy to be familiar with Scripture or understand who Jesus is in theory, but that's not the same as engaging with Him in the real, practical parts of life. Relationship shows up in how we trust Him, how we respond to challenges, and how we invite Him into our everyday decisions and emotions. Ask yourself… Where am I relying more on information about Jesus than on true connection with Him? What area of my life—good or hard—needs His involvement right now? And what small step toward deeper relationship can I take this week?

Pastor Luke Simmons dives into the parable found in Luke 18, exploring the challenging yet essential role of persistent prayer in the life of a believer.In this sermon, part of the "Jesus Stories" series focusing on parables from the Gospel of Luke, Pastor Luke discusses the misconception that faith should be formulaic and predictable, contrasting it with Jesus's call to constant prayer and trust in God's timing and justice. Through reflections on helplessness, the fight of faith, and the assurance of God's deep concern for us, Pastor Luke encourages believers to embrace prayer as a vital connection to God's kingdom and presence.Join us as we learn how to always pray, strengthening our faith as we wait for His return.**HOW TO FIND US*** SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YouTube CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@IronwoodChurchAZFACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/ironwoodchurchaz/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/ironwood.church/WEBSITE https://www.ironwoodchurch.org/

Episode Title: Jesus Stories: Carrie M. Holt About the Episode: In this conversation, Becky Davidson and Carrie M. Holt explore the profound impact of faith on their lives, sharing personal stories of childhood, struggles with identity, and the challenges of parenting a child with special needs. They discuss the importance of recognizing Jesus' humanity, the hope of heaven, and the encouragement needed for parents facing difficult times. Through their experiences, they emphasize the significance of community, trust in God, and the journey of wrestling with faith amidst adversity. Related Links: Messages from Jeff Moment of Reflection: Carrie shared something so powerful—how easy it is to make our faith transactional. You know, that mindset of ‘If I do this, then God will do that.' It sounds simple, but it can sneak into our hearts without us even realizing it. We start to believe that our obedience, our prayers, or our good behavior somehow guarantee a certain outcome. And when things don't go the way we expect or hope, we can feel disappointed—or even betrayed. But faith was never meant to be a transaction; it's meant to be a relationship. Jesus invites us into something so much deeper—a trust that looks more like a child resting in the arms of a loving Father. A child doesn't have to earn their parent's care or prove their worth—they just believe that love is there, no matter what. So this week, spend a few quiet moments asking yourself: How do I view my relationship with Jesus? Is it transactional—based on what I do or what I expect Him to do? Or is it childlike—rooted in simple trust, knowing that He is good even when life doesn't make sense? Take a breath, open your heart, and let Jesus remind you that His love for you isn't earned or bargained for—it's already yours."

What does Jesus say true greatness really looks like? In a world that defines success by status, achievement, and influence, Mark 10 flips the script completely. In this message, we explore how Jesus redefines greatness through humility, servanthood, and sacrifice. Not just in what He said, but in what He did.

What do you do when God doesn't seem to show up? When the waiting feels too long, the pain feels too real, and faith starts to fade? In this message, we look at the story of Lazarus, not just as a miracle from the past, but as a picture of what Jesus wants to do in our lives right now. He's not only the resurrection for someday… He's the life for today.
