Chasing the Kingdom

Ep. 76 - The Healer Nurse - Kyle Woods

Does God still heal people today? When Jesus walked the earth in human form, He performed miracles on the regular and even told us to do them. But if you’re a modern day Christian in the Western world, you may believe that stuff isn’t for today.  Why is that? In this episode, I talk to Kyle Woods - a healer nurse who prays for all his patients and has seen so many miracles throughout his career.  Kyle recently launched Ascend Health, a telehealth and concierge medical practice and uses his platform to care for people both physically and spiritually. I thought he was the perfect person to talk about God’s healing power and His intentions for His children today.   About Kyle Woods: Kyle Woods is a Georgia native who moved to Orlando in 2023 after completing the Christ for All Nations Evangelism Bootcamp, where God spoke clearly and called him not only as an evangelist, but as a pastor. Since answering that call, Kyle has witnessed the power of the gospel in undeniable ways—healings, deliverance, and the piercing truth of the gospel saving and transforming men, women, and children. Kyle now practices as a nurse practitioner in Florida. At the beginning of the year, God instructed him to launch a telehealth and concierge medical practice, Ascend Health—a business birthed in obedience and built for Kingdom impact. From day one, God’s favor has rested on it. The practice has accelerated, opened unexpected doors, and continues moving forward exactly as God wills. Today, Kyle steps forward with boldness, grace, and a burning mandate—to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ with power, to see lives transformed, and to see the glory of God invade every place his feet touch. He lives to be a living outpouring, that the Name of Jesus be lifted high and the earth be filled with His glory.

Ep. 75 - Hoping When It’s Dark - Bruce Roselle

Being saved doesn’t mean you’re a good leader. Neither does having a title or a ministry. Good leadership takes intense intentionality, sacrifice, and work. In the book of Isaiah (chapter 60:2) it says that a thick darkness will cover the earth. Recently, in prayer, Holy Spirt told me that God was raising up leaders that would help people to Hope in the darkness. In this episode, I talk to my new friend, Bruce Roselle. He’s the founder of Roselle Leadership and author of the book, “Wholehearted Leadership: A Toolbelt for Christian Leaders [https://a.co/d/0gLycd8q].” Bruce has helped many leaders in the past 3 decades but in this chapter of his life, he feels a calling to help pastors, ministry directors, and Christian leaders become more authentic and wholehearted … so that they can help others to hope in the current darkness. Bruce has a lot to say.  If you’re a leader (or if you need a good one), listen in and glean from his incredible experience! About Bruce: Founder of Roselle Leadership (1995), brings a breadth of experience and a deep sense of purpose to the task of helping pastors, ministry directors, and Christian leaders become more authentic and wholehearted.   His current book, Wholehearted Leadership: A Toolbelt for Christian Leaders, was published by WestBow Press in August 2025. An Emeritus Psychologist (Minnesota), he holds a PhD in Counseling from the University of Minnesota and a BA in Psychology from Northwestern University.  Bruce has written a bi-monthly article for the American City Business Journals and articles that appeared in various professional journals in the field of leadership/talent management. He has published four other books, including: Vital Truths (2002) and Fearless Leadership (2006), which won two awards from independent publishing organizations--Best Business Book (bronze) and Best Self-Help Book (silver) in 2007, The Fraud Factor (2016), and The Great Leader Handbook (2019).

Ep. 73 - Breaking Into Freedom Through Remote Work - Lesley Pyle

In this episode I talk to Lesley Pyle - one of God’s pioneers. In 1995, Lesley was moving up the corporate ladder towards a very successful career when something happened to her that changed her life - she became a mom. Lesley couldn’t picture a world where she couldn’t raise her new baby the way she wanted to. Instead of settling for how she was told the world had to be, she used her faith to do something new - working remotely in a time where most people didn’t even think it was an option. After doing it successfully herself, she built a business that helps other talented and hard working moms do the same. Listen in on our conversation and get inspired!
