(Ep 15) Today, we have the privilege of speaking with Pastor Sheila Seidl, a remarkable woman whose journey to Christ was not an easy one. Like many, she faced challenges and made difficult choices that led her down a path she never intended to take. However, through these trials, she discovered her calling to help others find healing and restoration.

Pastor Seidl has dedicated nearly three decades to leading prophetic worship, using her gift as a singer, songwriter, and musician to inspire others. Alongside her husband, Vlady, she has faithfully pastored Outreach Ministries International in Nashville, Tennessee, for over 16 years. Their ministry focuses on restoration, discipleship, and recovery, providing a safe and supportive environment for individuals seeking healing and growth.

In her latest album, “Arise in Glory,” Pastor Seidl shares her journey of faith and hope through a collection of uplifting music that encourages listeners to embrace their true selves and find strength in their faith.

She’s also the founder of the "Life's Terms" recovery program and author of the "Steps to Freedom" manual, which is utilized during her Women’s Healing Conferences.

Sheila will be the main speaker at our upcoming Winter Women’s Healing Conference, which will be held from February 26 to 28, 2027, in Orlando, Florida. This conference will be an intensive hands-on workshop where we walk step by step through nine modules of steps to freedom curriculum to let God repurpose every broken piece of our lives. It promises to be an incredible time of prayer and healing.

(Ep 16) My guests, Scott and Marlee Purcey, are a military couple who endured and overcame some of life’s most challenging obstacles, including PTSD, addiction, domestic violence, depression, and even suicide attempts.

He dedicated over 16 years to the US Military, including two tours to Iraq. Upon his return, he resorted to alcohol as a means of numbing the memories of the harrowing scenes he witnessed in war.

Now, the Lord is using them as a beacon of hope, helping to restore the lives of military service members and their spouses who are grappling with the aftermath of military trauma.

If you or someone you know is a military veteran struggling with one of the numerous traumatic stress issues, I highly recommend sharing this podcast with them.

Scott and Marlee present two programs that offer valuable support and guidance for military families seeking to recover from trauma. Please take the time to watch the podcast and explore the links provided below for more information.

(Ep 13) My guests, Steve Boyls, a software engineer, and his wife, Dr. Kathy Boyls, are co-authors of the book titled, “I’ve Been to Heaven.” Steve was admitted to the ICU due to COVID-19. He endured a grueling forty-five days on a ventilator and spent three and a half months in the hospital. As his body fought valiantly to survive, his wife, Dr. Kathy Boyls, faced numerous challenges, including navigating bureaucratic hurdles, adhering to medical protocols, and spiritual warfare over the life of her husband.

But as the battle raged on earth, Steve was ushered into Heaven, where he witnessed unspeakable beauty, unimaginable joy, and overwhelming hope. He describes being reunited with old friends, family, and pets, as well as an incredible encounter with Jesus. Steve realized that Heaven is more personal and relational than he ever imagined.

Steve Boyls miraculous recovery serves as a powerful reminder that miracles do happen, and God still answers the prayer of faith.

(Ep 11) My guests today, Dr. Terry & Renee Wortz, are my long time friends from our early teen years!

Just as Terry and Renee were enjoying their retirement, Terry began exhibiting symptoms of Lewy Body Dementia. As a medical professional, he was acutely aware of the grim prognosis and excruciating progression of this debilitating disease.

Terry’s health steadily declined until the doctors informed them both that there was no more hope for his recovery. Renee had already begun planning his funeral. Terry was on "end of life" medications, and his body was starting to shut down. However, in his dying moments, he expressed his desire to live to Renee. At that moment, she immediately anointed him and prayed long and hard for God to heal him. Two days later, he was sitting up in bed, off oxygen, and eagerly asking for black coffee! God granted a miracle healing in Terry’s body! Thank you, Lord!

Terry and Renee now share their testimony of God’s love and healing wherever the Lord opens the door. They emphasis that suffering is not a punishment from God but rather an opportunity to be used by the Lord to share the love of Jesus to others.

To contact Dr. Terry Wortz to speak at your event/church or for more information please email: TerryWortz54@icloud.com

Praise to our wonderful God who is still working miracles!
