The Real Deal

Season 3

S3E2 - Kathy Stouthamer

The Overcomer

God uses ALL seasons! Yes, even the one we are currently in, 2020. God works everything together for our good. He makes the shift in a seasons, He brings beauty out of ashes, give joy where there was mourning and He turns around the things we have given up on or think are impossible.

This week’s episode of “the real deal” podcast I had the privilege of interviewing Kathy Stouthamer. She is proof God doesn’t waste any season. He is drawing us closer and growing us in them all.

I keep a list of people I hope to interview and I’ve wanted to have Kathy as my guest since season one. It hadn’t worked out until now. God knew the perfect timing and in more ways than one-this is her time!

This is a story of an overcomer!

Kathy is an overcomer and like a phoenix she has risen from the ashes. Whoa! She sure has been through a great deal in one lifetime. She worships her way through. We’ve sung on worship teams and we will be going, Lord willing, together to Israel for “The Encounter Tour” May 4-14, 2021. (Hey, you’re invited to come along.)

I was so delighted to get to be with her for our chat and we talked way longer than the recorded interview! I’m thankful you’ll get to listen in to our conversation. I believe you’ll be blessed. Enjoy!

S3E7 - Jenny Bickle

Our appointment was set! I was scurrying around so delighted to be able to have a live interview when I received her text:

Hi Rachel! Jenny Bickel here! So looking forward to seeing you today! I’ll text when I’m on my way! Can I bring you a coffee or tea? 😊

She arrived promptly with drinks in hand, joy in her heart and conversation bursting from her lips! We had a blast getting to know each other further and she was an EASY guest to have on “the real deal” podcast.

Jenny has a heart for moms...She is someone who handles a great deal and juggles it all with a great attitude.

I’m happy to share this beautiful mama who has persevered through life’s curve balls and testified beautifully to the faithfulness of God.
