Episode 17 - A Mother’s Faith, A Daughter’s Obedience | The Story of Natalie Nicholson, Missionary in Mexico

-TEXT ME! What part of the episode resonated with you? OR What topic should we cover next?- [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2005098/fan_mail/new] In today’s episode of Heiresses of the King, Beatriz sits down with missionary and ministry leader Natalie Nicholson, joining us from Tecate, Mexico. For nearly 20 years, Natalie has been living as a missionary and leading El Estudio del Creador—a Christ-centered community art studio where creativity becomes a doorway to the gospel. Through painting, music, and relationships, hearts are softened, and lives are transformed. But Natalie’s story didn’t begin in Mexico. It began in the quiet faithfulness of a mother who stayed home, prayed over her daughter, and taught her how to talk to God. Those unseen, ordinary moments became the spiritual foundation for a lifetime of obedience. In this conversation, Natalie shares: * How learning to hear God’s voice shaped her calling * The loss that deepened her dependence on the Lord * The moment God spoke clearly about her future in Mexico * Walking through insecurity and fear while stepping into obedience * What it looks like to build a ministry rooted in creativity and relationship * Powerful stories of transformation through the love of Jesus Natalie and her husband Francisco have also recently stepped into a beautiful new season—they’ve adopted a precious baby boy, reminding us that ministry begins at home. This episode is for the woman who feels unseen. For the one who senses a calling but feels unqualified. For the mother who wonders if her prayers matter. Because God does not waste a season. And He does not waste a faithful “yes.” Connect & Support El Estudio del Creador If you feel led to connect, pray, give, or support the work God is doing through art and the gospel in Tecate, Mexico, you can learn more here: Website: https://www.studiodelcreador.org/ [https://www.studiodelcreador.org/] Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/iheartstudiodelcreador [https://www.facebook.com/iheartstudiodelcreador] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iheart_studiodelcreador [https://www.instagram.com/iheart_studiodelcreador] 💛 Loved This Episode?

Ep. 16 – Teen Pregnancy, Single Mom, New Legacy: How She Broke the Cycle (with Brigit Dixon)

-TEXT ME! What part of the episode resonated with you? OR What topic should we cover next?- [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2005098/fan_mail/new] What happens when a girl grows up in silent chaos—with a controlling father, a quiet, hurting mother, and a home full of secrets—and then finds herself a single mom of two by twenty-one, repeating the very patterns she never wanted? In this episode of Heiresses of the King, Beatriz sits down with Brigit Dixon, Missions & Outreach Director at Northwest Church, wife of Pastor Ben Dixon, and a former teen single mom, to share a powerful Christian testimony of teen pregnancy, single motherhood, and breaking generational cycles through Jesus. Bridget opens up about growing up under a harsh, perfectionist father, becoming a teen mom twice, walking through multiple unhealthy relationships, and the deep shame and anger that followed her into motherhood. She shares how a praying mom, a Spirit-filled church family, and the gentle conviction of the Holy Spirit led her from survival mode into healing, restoration, and a godly marriage. If you’re a Christian single mom, a woman with father wounds, or a mother terrified you’re passing your pain down to your sons and daughters, this conversation will help you see that God’s best is still available, that you don’t have to settle, and that with Jesus, you really can start a new legacy for your family.
