In this episode of 12-Minute Convos with Jesus Believers, Engel Jones connects with Darcy Hicks from the Pensacola area of northwest Florida. A career nurse and mother of four, Darcy reflects on her beautiful 35-year marriage, vulnerably noting that in their early years together, neither she nor her husband were actively serving Christ. She openly shares how losing her father in high school led her down a prodigal path of self-destruction before God graciously wove her back into a relationship with Him. 

Listen in as Darcy discusses her contributions to several devotional books, including Strength in the Storm, and the profound spiritual power of actively recognizing the different names of God like our Provider and our Shepherd in our everyday lives. If you are feeling burnt out, Darcy’s vital reminder to stop getting your value solely from your productivity and to simply learn to rest in Jesus will deeply renew your spirit!
