Episode 40: Rev. Debi’s Journey - How God Wove Every Piece Together

In this episode, I sit down with Rev. Debi, an ordained Deacon in the United Methodist Church, whose journey into ministry is anything but linear. From aquatics teacher to Christian educator to counselor—and now serving in a local congregation—Debi shares how God faithfully wove together every season of her story in ways she never could have predicted.We talk about what it’s like to find yourself serving in a place you least expected, and how every skill, passion, and life experience becomes holy ground when placed in God’s hands. Debi reflects on how she co-creates with God in ministry, drawing from her diverse background to serve God’s people with wisdom, compassion, and authenticity.We also have an honest conversation about navigating grief and transition in ministry, the vulnerability that comes with change, and the deep importance of support systems—especially for women in clergy leadership.If you’ve ever wondered how God might use the seemingly disconnected pieces of your story… or if you’re walking through transition and need encouragement… this conversation is for you.
