This morning, something beautiful happened.
What started as a local challenge to “light up the map with hope” became a global movement of faith in action — with listeners tuning in from six U.S. states, London, England, and even Falkenstein, Germany. 🌎
In today’s episode, Steven shares how hope multiplies when we live it out loud — through kindness, prayer, and connection. Drawing from Desmond Tutu’s timeless quote,
“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.”
You’ll hear how one simple act of encouragement can travel farther than we ever imagine.
Plus, a powerful on-air prayer moment unites listeners across continents, a touching story of answered prayer reminds us that God still moves, and we celebrate what it truly means to be the Lifeline family. 💛
If you’ve been needing a reminder that your faith matters, this episode will light a fire in your heart.

What if faith was never meant to be walked alone?
What if the greatest breakthroughs God wants to bring into your life happen through the people He’s placed around you?
Today’s episode of The Lifeline Morning Show is all about the power of community, gratitude, and faith lived out loud.
Powered by Helen Keller’s timeless truth—
“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”
—and your show quote:
“Faith grows fastest when we cheer each other on — not from the stands, but side-by-side on the field.”
Steven dives into what real, authentic Christian community looks like…
not just on Sundays, not just online…
but in the ordinary, everyday moments where encouragement becomes fuel.
Steven shares the powerful, true story of Bible scholar Matthew Henry, who was robbed on the road in the 1700s… and still chose gratitude.
Instead of fear, he wrote four things he was thankful for -
a journaling moment that continues to inspire believers centuries later.
Why?
Because gratitude shared out loud becomes gratitude multiplied.
And today, his faith is strengthening ours.
This episode is packed with stories that pull your heart forward, including:
✨ A prayer moment that brought listeners to tears
✨ The GIF challenge that united listeners across the map
✨ A deeply relatable parenting reflection that will hit home for every mom & dad

✨ A listener testimony that showed how your prayers are changing lives
✨ A powerful challenge to say YES to God even when it’s uncomfortable

In this episode of The Lifeline Morning Show, Steven reminds us that faith isn’t about control; it’s about trust.
