The first time I met Melanie I knew I wanted to know her better. Her love for Jesus is infectious! She is a communicator, an author and shares her faith with everyone who will listen! She hails from Puerto Rico and uses her bilingual capabilities in many ways; including, publishing a second children’s book called, “My Super Dog”. Melanie shares her story of coming to know Jesus and how God continues to open doors for her to share her faith. You’ll be encouraged and inspired to use YOUR gifts and talents after hearing how Melanie shares hers!

The first time I met Brianna Evans, I was actually a guest on HER podcast! Instantly, I felt a heart connection with Brianna, and while she was the one asking all the questions that day, I wanted to turn the mic around and get to know her better!

Brianna is a Jesus girl, wife, mom, and fellow podcaster. She says her podcast, “Jesus Take The Mic”, is ‘for the faith-filled and the figuring-it-out’… and don’t we all fit in there somewhere?!! I love that she’s curious, and she’s passionate about Jesus and about helping people connect to Him and to each other.

You’ll be encouraged and probably filled with a little more joy by the time you wrap up this episode of our time together!

If you, or someone you love, struggles with depression and no matter what you do, there always seems to be a cloud hanging over you, this podcast may encourage you that there IS hope and help! My guest on this episode, Theresa Fiege, has dealt with clinical depression for a very long time. Theresa shares how she learned to cope and live life on the ‘up’ side thanks to God, a good therapist and medication. I asked Theresa to share what’s helped her in our show notes and she wrote this note to help you:

=> First and foremost, dial 988 if you are thinking of hurting/killing yourself. It will connect you to a live person who can help you. You should also talk to your primary care physician about what is going on.

=> Stay close to God. I use the YouVersion Bible App. There are so many plans for mental health. Filling my mind with God\'s Word has helped so when I am feeling discouraged or down, I can turn to the verses I\'ve memorized to help. Psalm 42:5-6 is helpful to remind me that God has never failed me and He will not ever.

=> Christian music is a great help. I love the song \"\"Breakdown\"\" by Andrew Ripp. The line, \"\"If you couldn\'t feel further from redemption, you\'re the closest you\'ve ever been, ROCK BOTTOM IS A FIRM FOUNDATION\"\" God sees me where I am and He understands me. Music helps.
