When she was only twenty-three years old, Rachelle Starr started going to strip clubs to share Christ’s love with the dancers. Now, having founded a Christian ministry to people in the adult entertainment industry, she demonstrates the key to shining Christ’s light into the darkness–love people one at a time and continue to love them no matter what.
Loving others like Jesus did has to be more than social media shares and likes–we need to meet people in their pain growing in our empathy and love for those God has placed in our lives. But maybe you’re afraid or unsure where to start.
On today’s episode, we are chatting about how a little vision goes a long way. As Rachelle shares about her book Outrageous Obedience: Answering God’s Call to Shine in the Darkest Places, she will light a fire in your soul to step out in greater ways and become fearlessly and outrageously obedient to the Lord.
Join us to be inspired by Rachelle’s true stories and biblical encouragement and discover the courage to say yes to God. Then, witness the fruit and the blessings of your obedience to the vision God has given you.
