Today, Engel Jones has an incredibly inspiring and visionary conversation with Ron Smith, connecting from the West Coast of the USA! Ron opens up about his unexpected journey to Christ. Raised in a non-believing household with zero exposure to the church, Ron spent his junior high and high school years wrestling with the feeling that there had to be more to his existence.

He shares how the late Dr. Myles Munroe mentored his perspective, teaching him that vision is absolutely necessary to shatter our limited, human way of thinking. Ron also breaks down his profound, life-shaping vision from October 13, 1993, where he saw nations coming to eat of God's fruit and drink from His rivers of living water.

Welcome to Episode 180 of 12-Minute Convos with Jesus Believers!

Today, Engel Jones has a fascinating, spiritually rich conversation with Pastor Phales Moomba, connecting all the way from Zambia, Africa. Pastor Phales opens up about her unique path of faith. Raised by a pastor mother, Phales made the defining decision to follow Jesus at just 12 years old, completely ignoring her fear of what others would think. She vulnerably shares the challenges of her school years, where she was labeled the "too serious church girl" for choosing the Word of God over the patterns of the world.

Discover her incredible journey of understanding her dreams. Having had prophetic dreams since she was eight years old, Phales describes how waking up puzzled and lacking mentorship drove her to draw closer to the Lord. Learn how the Holy Spirit mentored her, showing her that dreams are a biblical tool used by God to reveal our callings (Job 33:17).

Today, Phales’s life-changing ministry focuses on the supernatural healing of hearts and souls. In this episode, she shares a powerful message of encouragement to believe in yourself, trust who God says you are, and serve Him with every ounce of your heart!

Welcome to Episode 179 of 12-Minute Convos with Jesus Believers!

Today, Engel Jones has a beautifully rich, theological, and legacy-focused conversation with Reverend Kevin T. Taylor, connecting from Connecticut. Kevin opens up about his childhood growing up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in the largest and oldest Black church in the city. He shares the sweet memory of how his childhood pastor would always greet him as "hey preacher," and how one of the mothers of the church held him as a newborn and prophesied that he was destined to preach. But as Kevin grew up, he took a detour through corporate work, Los Angeles, and New York's Broadway, thinking his calling was limited to administrative and back-office leadership as an executive pastor.

Discover the jaw-dropping moment during a Broadway performance of The Lion King where Mufasa’s legendary words to Simba "You are more than what you have become"—instantly pierced his heart and set a fire in his bones to return to the pulpit.

Learn about Kevin's current assignment leading a historic, 202-year-old church in upstate New York that served as a literal stop on the Underground Railroad. Grounded in scripture, Kevin shares profound wisdom on legacy, why we must be the best sowers and waterers we can be, and why we must trust God for the increase even if we don't live to sit in the shade of the trees we plant today.

Today, Engel Jones has a deeply comforting, honest, and vital conversation with author, speaker, and podcaster Andrea Fortenberry, connecting from Phoenix, Arizona. Andrea opens up about her journey as a mother of two. While she cherished motherhood, she vulnerably shares her struggles with high expectations, anger, and being a "recovering perfectionist".

Discover how a decision to seek Christian counseling transformed her heart and her parenting style, taking her from a place of frustration into a life anchored in grace. Now that her children are teenagers (ages 18 and 15), Andrea shares why it is absolutely essential for mothers to model self-care rather than falling into the "mommy martyr" trap. She explains how her monthly counseling sessions, book club, exercise, and creative projects help her bring the very best version of herself to her husband and family.

Learn about her entrepreneurial roots, her time in Toastmasters, and the inspiration behind her incredible podcast, The Perfectionist's Guide to Mothering. If you have been carrying the heavy weight of perfectionism or running on empty, Andrea’s testimony is a compassionate reminder that God's grace is more than enough for your motherhood journey!

Discover the defining moment, eight months later, when God met him right in front of his bathroom mirror and challenged him to step out of his misery and trust in His redemption.

Learn how Chuck's absolute surrender unlocked forty years of miraculous restoration. God did not just heal his heart; He doubled his blessings, growing his family from three children to nine and opening doors for Chuck to teach and minister on four different continents, including the United Kingdom, Italy, and France.

Welcome to Episode 175 of 12-Minute Convos with Jesus Believers!

Today, Engel Jones has a beautiful, heartfelt, and deeply encouraging conversation with Maukeisha Alexis, connecting right from their home island of Trinidad! Maukeisha shares her raw and honest testimony, reflecting on her childhood and her first real encounter with the Holy Spirit at a 13-year-old crusade. She opens up about the seasons when she felt distant from God, and how she found the strength to reconnect with Jesus by remembering the "Footprints on the Sand" plaque she grew up with as a child.

Discover how she processed her walk with God as a continuous, daily decision to step back on track, and the joy of coming home to her faith like the prodigal daughter.

Learn her powerful, life-changing advice for her future self. Quoting Martin Luther King Jr., Maukeisha breaks down why consistency is not about being a perfect "100 percent" every single day. If you can't run, walk; if you can't walk, crawl—but whatever you do, keep moving forward. Her beautiful Trinidadian testimony will inspire you to rest in the arms of the Savior who carries you today!
