#111 Kicked, Beaten and Abused - Kayla Hodges turned pain into PURPOSE and AMBITION! by Shawn and Jennifer Davis

#110 Samantha Foster has lived in fear and torment for most of her life at the hands of abusive men. It first began when she was 3 years old living with a what she calls a "narcissistic sociopath" step-father. He sexually abused, raped and tortured her mother. He tortured, abused and molested her and her siblings. He would hang her and her family members up by their hands and arms on the back porch and then proceed to whip and beat them. He threatened to cut off her ears or nose while holding a knife to her face. As she describes the scene...it sounds like a living hell that she called daily life. At the age of 18, Samantha was finally able to run away from this demented step-father but the cycle of abuse only continued with other men. You see, when you know nothing else by abuse it is the only "familiar" life you know...especially when you were not taught any social or adult life skills. In her late 40's, Samantha was in an abusive relationship with a man that said that he was going to kill her. He had tied her up and then went to go grab his knife in the other room. She was ready to die. She imagined the knife piercing her skin, going through her body and into her heart. In her mind, it would finally be over. The torment, the torture, the abuse would all be over and she was ready. In a moment...everything changed. Her life has never been the same since that day and she recounts the story with Shawn and Jen in this powerful and unforgettable episode of the Hope Radio Podcast. You will hear how Samantha survived that fateful day and how she turned her pain and torture into a mission to help others. This is a must listen to episode of the Hope Radio Podcast!

In his neighborhood there was a place called Shorefront that had a gymnasium where the local kids all congregated to play basketball.

Outside looking in, this person was helping the less fortunate kids in the neighborhood.

#106 The Hope Radio Podcast was started to give hope to the hopeless. Our original thought was that if we could bring people on to share their life stories of overcoming significant challenges or adversity, those stories would be a lamp post of HOPE for others. Our HOPE was that people would listen and then think...if Jane Smith was able to make it through what she went through...maybe I can make it through what I am dealing with now! MISTIE LAYNE's story could not be a better example of our mission. Her story is INCREDIBLE. Maybe it is her southern charm. Maybe it is the fact that she has overcome some of the most significant challenges that we have heard from a guest yet. Maybe it was God showing up and showing out in her life. If you need HOPE NOW, this is a must listen to episode of the Hope Radio Podcast! It will be difficult to stay hopeless if you listen to the unbelievable story that Mistie shares. Please join Shawn and Jen as they sit down with Mistie to discuss her life and how God redeemed her after she accidentally took the life of an innocent person in drug deal gone wrong.

Rhett Seevers was born on February 7, 1997. His proud parents, Beth and Randy Seevers brought home their bundle of joy to join their family of four. At four months, they were devastated by the news that their little boy had severe cerebral palsy and would face a life full of challenges. They dove in headfirst and learned all they could about his disabilities. On March 13, 2004, after 7 years of full-time care, love, and devotion, Rhett passed away at home unexpectedly with his family by his side. In the spring of 2005, as the anniversary of Rhett’s death approached, a friend of Beth’s introduced her to running. She learned of the 1st annual Shamrock’n ½ marathon. It was ironically being held on the first anniversary of Rhett’s passing. Completing the run was such an inspiration to Beth. The following year, she asked that her friends and family join her. Join her they did; 35 additional friends and family donned the first baby blue running shirts that year. In the spring of 2007, with the addition of an organized training group, over 125 people participated in the race. On December 7, 2007, the “Runnin’ for Rhett Non-Profit” was founded. The organization has now inspired 1000’s of youth and adults in the Sacramento area. In Rhett’s short life, he inspired many people with his infectious smile and will to live, but with his challenges, he could not walk, run or jump – no matter how hard he tried. After Rhett’s death, Beth and Randy dedicated their memory of Rhett to utilizing FITNESS and MOVING to help others do what Rhett wanted to do so badly but couldn’t. Please join Shawn and Jen as they sit down and talk with Beth and Randy Seevers about Rhett, their charity "Runnin for Rhett" and how it has given them HOPE out of the ashes of their tragic loss.
