Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God – Details, episodes & analysis

"We had a massive fire. We lost everything, with the exception of one thing. In the living room, within the ashes, one thing survived, our Bible."

----------

At the base of Cross Mountain in Medjugorje, our guide had us bend down and pick up a small stone. She said to place all our worries, fears, and crosses on this tiny rock. Then, she told us to carry it in our pocket to the top and to leave it at the foot of the cross, surrendering it all to Christ.

In this episode, I bring you along for the ascent, with audio from my fellow pilgrims Ben and Paul and the 20-plus souls who climbed with us.

I also share a providential two-minute encounter with Claire, a listener whose own life reveals the gentle fingerprints of God—from her father's passing to a house fire that showed His hand. Together, our stories point to the daily cross, and the strength Christ gives to carry it.

"Everyone was flipping out. I was there. I witnessed this. Everyone was screaming and yelling at my mother's impossible prayer being answered."

----------

What happens when we stop telling God How to Fix It and simply hand Him the problem?

This week's Touched by Heaven takes us from a broken white cane on a Medjugorje pilgrimage, to a Cuban girl's miracle education, and even to a can of tomato paste that shouldn't exist.

In each story, heaven responds to the same simple, powerful prayer that Mary modeled at Cana: "They have no wine." When we stop micromanaging miracles and let God be God, He fills our jars — and our lives — to the brim.

"The baby was delivered via C-section. but my wife was hemorrhaging, 2 Liters of blood, and the doctors didn't know from where. Her blood pressure was down to 52/38, and she was losing consciousness."

I asked Johnny, " How did you pray differently?"

This week on Touched by Heaven, we meet musician, Johnny Hall, whose life took a dramatic turn in the delivery room.

Known for leading praise and worship at healing services and events like Encounter School of Ministry, Johnny had learned about bold, Spirit-filled prayer. Those lessons became more than theory when his wife Danielle's life was suddenly in jeopardy during the birth of their daughter, Sadie.

With doctors confused and scrambling, Johnny did the only thing he knew to do—call on the Holy Spirit and a prayer of command.

What unfolded next left everyone stunned and confirmed for Johnny the power of God moving in real time. This is a story of faith, a type of prayer that you need to know, and a God who listens.

Enjoy the podcast!
