Brittiny & Kacie: Adoption Wasn’t Option B...It Was Always God’s Plan A (Testimony) | EP #65 (Pt 3)

Ronnie Johnson: When Death Became the Door Back to Faith (Testimony) EP#69 (Pt 2)

In Part 2 of Ronnie Johnson’s testimony, Ronnie shares the painful season when his dad’s cancer, unanswered prayers, church disappointment, and broken relationships all seemed to collide at once. As his father’s health declined, Ronnie found himself angry, disoriented, and unsure what to do with a God who seemed silent while everyone was praying for healing. But in the middle of grief, Jesus met Ronnie in a way he never expected. Through forgiveness at a deathbed, reconciliation after years of distance, quiet acts of love, and a peace Ronnie could not manufacture, God began bringing him back to life. This is a story about the wall, the mystery of suffering, and the faithful presence of Jesus when the miracle looks different than the one we asked for. Ronnie Johnson, along with co-creator Jeff Parker, is behind Voice & Vine, a thoughtful space for honest writing on faith, formation, healing, and the slow work of becoming whole. Rooted in Scripture and grounded in story, Voice & Vine invites readers to slow down, reflect, and notice what God is doing in the ordinary places of life. Ronnie is also the founder of GoodFolks, a Texas-born design and development studio that builds purposeful websites, brands, and digital experiences with clarity and meaning.

Ronnie Johnson: The Professional Christian (Testimony) | EP #68 (Pt 1)

Ronnie Johnson grew up in a Christian home where church was a constant part of life. From an early age, he knew the language, the expectations, and the rhythms of faith—but somewhere along the way, following God became wrapped up in performance, pressure, and desperately trying not to lose his salvation. In Part 1 of Ronnie’s testimony, he shares honestly about growing up in church, learning how to play the part, wrestling with hidden sin, and eventually running into the kind of failure he could no longer manage or explain away. But in one of his lowest moments, God met him with a message he desperately needed to hear: “I can’t, but He can.” This is a story of grace breaking through shame, and Jesus revealing that freedom is not found in pretending harder—but in finally surrendering to what He has already done.

Jeff Parker: The Confession That Set Me Free (Testimony) | EP #67 (Pt 2)

In Part 2 of Jeff Parker’s testimony, Jeff shares the moment his hidden gambling addiction crossed a line he never thought he would cross—and how that one compromise became the beginning of a seven-year spiral of secrecy, theft, shame, and spiritual decay. What started as a rush slowly became a prison, affecting his marriage, his work, his friendships, and his ability to fully live the life God had placed in front of him. But God was not finished with Jeff. Through conviction, confession, community, repentance, restitution, and the grace of Jesus Christ, Jeff began to experience freedom on the other side of honesty. His story moves from hidden sin to restored relationships, from shame to shepherding, and from performing faith to learning what it means to be deeply loved by God. This episode is a powerful reminder that God’s grace reaches further than the tentacles of sin—and that the very story we want to hide may become the story God uses for His glory. **If Jeff’s perspective on faith resonated with you, you can find more of his writing at voiceandvine.co, where he shares thoughtful reflections on following Jesus with honesty, depth, and grace.

Jeff Parker: Playing the Part While Falling Apart (Testimony) | EP #66 (Part 1)

In Part 1 of Jeff Parker’s testimony, Jeff shares how a childhood marked by family instability, the pressure to be the “good kid,” and an early encounter with Jesus slowly became a life of trying to perform faith instead of walking in freedom. From his parents’ separation to youth leaders who showed him the love of Christ, Jeff’s story begins with real pain, real grace, and a growing desire to follow Jesus. But as life moved into college, marriage, ministry, career success, and fatherhood, hidden shame began to grow beneath the surface. Jeff opens up about the gap between who he wanted to be and what he was secretly carrying—and how gambling, partial confession, and the fear of being fully known began leading him toward a breaking point. This episode is an honest look at performance, shame, sin, and the kindness of God that keeps pursuing us even in seasons of disobedience.

Brittiny & Kacie: Adoption Wasn’t Option B...It Was Always God’s Plan A (Testimony) | EP #65 (Pt 3)

In the final part of Brittiny and Kacie’s story, the conversation moves into the tender intersection of infertility, pregnancy, friendship, and adoption. Kacie shares the painful process of grieving the dream of having biological children, while also asking God to bring her and Ben to a place where adoption was not seen as “option B,” but as the family story He had been writing all along. This episode is a beautiful picture of Christian friendship, surrender, open adoption, answered prayer, and the goodness of God in a plan that looked different than expected. If you have ever had to release a dream, wait on the Lord, or trust Him with a story you never would have chosen, this testimony is a reminder that God’s plan is never second best.
