In this heartfelt episode of Saving Grace, host Carmen Pate sits down with author and worship leader Renee Toon to explore her new devotional, My Journey, His Story. Through personal stories of surrender, identity, and transformation, Renee shares how God met her in seasons of doubt, control, and healing. Her insights, shaped by ministry, music, and Celebrate Recovery, remind us that God is not finished with us—His grace transforms every struggle into a testimony.



Renee Toon is a passionate follower of Jesus, a gifted communicator, and a woman of many hats—educator, entrepreneur, musician, and ministry leader. With a degree in Music Education from North Texas State University, Renee once toured internationally with The Continental Singers, sharing the gospel through music around the world.



Her journey has also included roles as a public educator, business owner, and real estate investor. Today, she and her husband, Doug, serve faithfully in their church in Longview, Texas, leading Celebrate Recovery and ministering to those seeking healing and freedom. Renee continues to bless her church community as a member of the praise team, using her voice and testimony to glorify God.



With a heart rooted in grace and authenticity, Renee inspires others through her writing, music, and lived faith.
