Wow. Think of it. After all, you have questions! You’ve been known to have a problem or two. It would be great if you could find the answers you’re looking for. You crack open that Bible a couple of times but just as quickly shut it. You want to love digging into Scripture. Instead, you find it intimidating, judgmental, and maybe even unbelievable. Let’s change that. Hi! I’m Anna Moore Bradfield, an award-winning and bestselling author, Christian speaker, and facilitator of workshops and events. I’ve been where you are. Plenty of times. I’ve questioned if God cared at all about what I was going through. Did he even have a plan for my life? When I got up the guts to tell him to his face, I found that he had very broad shoulders and that he could take anything I dished out. Then he began revealing himself to me. In this podcast, we’ll share: • Stories from the Bible that reveal God’s interactions with His people, confirming His desire for intimate, consistent, and loving relationships. • Stories from everyday life that testify to…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-21T14:21:47.747384+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/god-s-power-stories-finding-god-s-lead-how-god-shows-up-bible-and-everyday-life-stories-approaching-god-with-boldness-7102580"},"episode":{"title":"071 | From Fear to Faith: The Night Jim Chapin Met Jesus Face to Face","slug":"071-from-fear-to-faith-the-night-jim-chapin-met-jesus-face-to-face","published_at":"2026-01-13T06:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/god-s-power-stories-finding-god-s-lead-how-god-shows-up-bible-and-everyday-life-stories-approaching-god-with-boldness-7102580/071-from-fear-to-faith-the-night-jim-chapin-met-jesus-face-to-face","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/god-s-power-stories-finding-god-s-lead-how-god-shows-up-bible-and-everyday-life-stories-approaching-god-with-boldness-7102580","url":"https://godspowerstories.podbean.com/e/from-brokenness-to-vision-jim-chapin-s-life-changing-encounter-with-jesus/","audio_url":"https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/8eqgcmkck3qbpvpc/071_Jim_Chapin_Interview7owho-k4ujnk-Optimized.mp3","summary":"What happens when darkness tries to claim your life but grace refuses to let go? For this GPS episode, I sat down with Jim Chapin—a nurse, chaplain, and faculty member at The Well Conference for Creatives—to hear his extraordinary story of redemption. From growing up in church without mentorship to descending into addiction and fear, Jim’s journey reminds us how relentlessly God pursues His children. At the age of nineteen, a night of compromise led to a confrontation with darkness that nearly killed him. Dragged under a car, left unconscious, and haunted by a demonic encounter, Jim shouldn't have survived. But God had already written a different story. Two months later, on his twentieth birthday, he found himself at a Christian roller‑skating party (yes, really!) and then a church service where he saw Jesus standing before him, with his arms open wide. That encounter changed everything. Through each twist of rebellion, redemption, and revelation, Jim learned what it means to be seen, known, and loved by God—and how obedience brings peace beyond fear. 🔑 Key Takeaways The Enemy Sets Traps, But God Sets the Rescue. Spiritual authority begins with recognizing who’s pursuing your life. No Past Is Too Dark for God’s Light. Jim’s testimony proves grace can heal the deepest wounds. Encounters with God Aren’t Always in Church Pews. Sometimes they happen on roller skates or in near‑death silence. When Jesus Sees you, It Changes Everything. When you realize He sees and and still loves you, the hiding ends and the healing begins. Our Stories Are God’s Evidence of Mercy. When we share what God has brought us through, someone finds hope to live again. 🌿 Key Themes Redemption • Faith Through Fear • Spiritual Deliverance • God’s Pursuit • Testimony of Grace • Healing After Addiction…","meta_description":"What happens when darkness tries to claim your life but grace refuses to let go?
