  • 36. From Grave Clothes to Glory: A Testimony of God’s Delivering Power | Samia Young
    Nov 19 2025
    In this powerful episode of The Word of Their Testimony Podcast, Samia shares a deeply moving journey. Growing up amid violence, abandonment, and instability on the south side of Chicago, her early years were marked by trauma that left deep emotional scars. Yet even in the darkest moments, God was quietly preparing the path that would one day lead her from brokenness to redemption.

    At just 14 years old, after years of feeling unwanted and unseen, Samia encountered the gospel for the first time while living in an abusive home. That moment changed everything. Though her circumstances didn’t immediately improve, her newfound relationship with Jesus gave her the strength to endure, forgive, and hope. As she grew older, life brought new struggles—legal trouble, unhealthy relationships, and seasons of wandering far from the faith. But at 24, shattered and desperate on a jail cell floor, she cried out to God once more—and He began rebuilding her life from the inside out.

    Today, Samia is an attorney, minister, author, and mentor whose story is captured in her book Samia Come Forth: Trading Grave Clothes for Purpose. In this episode, she vulnerably shares how God not only delivered her from trauma, poverty, and shame, but also led her through a deeper process of surrender—removing the “grave clothes” that once kept her bound. Her testimony is a powerful reminder that no life is too broken for God to redeem, and that true freedom comes when we fully yield our hearts to Him.

  • 35. For the Lord Your God is With You Wherever You Go | Katy Palmer
    Oct 23 2025
    Katy Palmer was born and raised in a Christian home. She spent a good amount of time with her grandparents when she was little, and they became the foundation for how to live like Jesus. But when Katy was 8 years old, everything changed after her dad got into a head-on collision. The enemy used this tragedy to begin to drive a wedge between her and God. Katy slowly began to drift away from Him. In her early 20s, she married a man who didn't love the Lord. Later on in life, Katy got into yoga, which she now realizes was a “false light” community.

    It wasn’t until Covid happened in 2020, when all her plans fell apart, that Katy started coming back to Jesus. She had been in a few circles that talked about Him, but it was a fake, new-age version of Jesus. Even so, the Holy Spirit was still directing Katy and working to bring her back to God. She started praying, and told God – “put me where you want me to be”. Despite having been so far away from Him for so long, God welcomed Katy back with open arms. He led her to move across the country to Austin, Texas and has protected and provided for her in miraculous ways.

    Looking back on her life, Katy realizes that the Holy Spirit has always been there with her every step of the way. She’s learned the power of constant prayer, and the peace that comes from complete surrender and obedience to the Lord. Katy’s testimony is a powerful reminder that nothing can separate us from His love, and that we are never alone. God is always right there with us, just waiting for us to turn to Him!

  • 34. From Porn Addict to Unchained Leader | Lori Lohrmann
    Jul 23 2025
    A homeschooling mom and lifelong believer, Lori Lohrmann says there’s a very real Satan that is gunning for our kingdom calling, but she didn’t see it until age 35. What started off as an innocent hobby of reading books, quickly turned into an addiction Lori couldn’t escape. The content got darker and spicier and eventually led her to watch pornography. She was instantly hooked. Lori explains this happened because there were emotional wounds and scars from the past that she hadn’t ever seen. She didn’t know the root issue and started self-medicating with venturing into this new realm. The worst part was that Lori couldn’t stop. She was in full-blown addiction. Lori tried to resist temptation, but she continued to fail over and over again. The shame took such a mental toll on her that it was hard to be present around her family. Lori was dying inside trying to break free.

    One day while scrolling on Instagram, she found Unchained Leader and joined the next day as the first woman to enroll. She describes it as 10 years of therapy in 90 days and the 10% that works, all through a biblical lens. As a result of this process, Lori was able to break free from the bondage of sexual addiction and find healing, restoration and freedom. Afterwards, she felt called to share her story and help as many women as she could. Lori began working as a coach with Unchained Leader and started their women’s program.

    I’m incredibly thankful for Lori’s courageous vulnerability throughout her story. If you or anyone you know is in the depths of addiction, this episode will give you the hope that you’re desperately seeking.

    Jun 27 2025
    Join us for a truly remarkable story of redemption with guest Phillip "Wildman" Hicks. Once a man living life in the fast lane, Phillip's world was one of reporting sports, eating fire, and partying with the likes of Jimmy Buffett, Hunter S. Thompson, and Robin Williams. But this high-octane lifestyle came to a screeching halt after a botched burglary and a violent confrontation with a mafia hitman left him on the wrong side of a .357 Magnum. This episode dives into the incredible series of events that could only have been orchestrated by God.

    In his powerful testimony, Phillip recounts the shocking details of the shootout that nearly cost him his life, leaving him with a shattered femur and facing a bleak future. While lying in a hospital bed, sentenced to life plus 15 years in prison and overcome with despair, a divine appointment changed everything. A young Christian man shared the simple truth of the gospel, leading Phillip to a profound encounter with Jesus Christ. What follows is a miraculous journey through the legal system, where his life sentence was ultimately vacated in a stunning display of God's sovereignty and grace.

    Today, Phillip and his wife have embarked on a new mission. Having sold their house, they now travel the country in an RV, ministering to those in the prison system through their organization, "Jesus Behind Bars." This episode is a testament to the fact that no one is beyond God's reach. Phillip's journey from a "rebel without a cause" to a man filled with purpose and faith demonstrates how God can take the most broken stories and use them for His glory, bringing hope and new life to countless others.
