Episode Synopsis
Send The Parable Podcast a TextDo you ever think is God punishing me for something? As a teacher, artist, and writer, Kelly has been privileged to befriend children in the darkness of disease, poverty, enslavement, and incredible grief. Yet in those very spaces, she has experienced even a destitute, red dirt path behold the craziest kind of party when tens of tiny, shoeless feet sprinted after her. Not one trip did Kelly give as much as she received, from children. Now as the founder of Project Lightwell Kelly Carlson discusses how God has used the battle of her chronic illness to bring light to a child’s lifeI personally resonated with pieces of Kelly's story. I loved how God used all those things from her skip-it, to her time with kids in orphanages, to fighting her illness to now be an influence in so many children's lives. I hope you enjoy this amazing story.Jesus is coming for the sick, not the healed. - Kelly CarlsonConversation TopicsExperiences of serving on the mission fieldPerformance Oriented MindsetAm I Being Punished?Chronic IllnessFinding FreedomWhat is Project LightwellGod providing influence to othersReflection Questions1.
