Summary
This week, J.John is joined by Debra Green, who shares of encountering God in a deeply personal way on her wedding day. After going on to pastor Ivy Church in Manchester, Debra became increasingly aware of the challenges facing her city, once labelled “Gunchester,” and began gathering hundreds of churches to pray. In this conversation, she also shares from her own family life, including the arrest of her son during her time in leadership, and the remarkable story of prayer, worship, and his encounter with God while in a police cell. Debra shares about her work through Redeeming Our Communities and the story behind her book 'Way Maker;, co-written with her son Josh.
