When God Goes Silent: Still Handpicked Through Grief & Loss w/ Pastor Audra Bain
What happens when you lose everything that anchored you… and God doesn’t say a word? In this powerful HerStory episode, Katissa Lupoe sits down with Pastor Audra Bain — fourth-generation intercessor, worship leader, and pastor of Judah’s House Ministries in Nassau, Bahamas, where she pastors alongside her husband, Pastor Brian Bain — for one of the most raw and honest conversations this series has ever held. In a single season, Pastor Audra lost her father, her grandmother, and a pregnancy. Back to back. No warning. No explanation. Just silence. This is a conversation about what it looks like to keep going when grief has you in a stranglehold… when your faith feels shaken… and when everything in you wants to walk away from the calling God placed on your life. But Pastor Audra’s story is proof that God’s silence does not mean His absence. Sometimes silence is preparation. Sometimes brokenness is the birthplace of deeper purpose. And sometimes the fire reveals that you were handpicked all along. This episode is for every woman who has questioned: Does God still see me? Am I still called? Does my life still have purpose after this pain? The answer is yes. You were handpicked before you ever walked through the fire. ✨ About Pastor Audra Bain Pastor Audra Bain is a fourth-generation intercessor, worship leader, author, and pastor of Judah’s House Ministries in Nassau, Bahamas, where she serves alongside her husband, Pastor Brian Bain. Her life is deeply rooted in prayer, worship, and the presence of God, carrying a passion for helping people encounter healing, restoration, and intimacy with the Lord. Known for her authenticity and devotion to intercession, Pastor Audra is the founder of Judah Experiences, a ministry that has spent more than 15 years creating transformative spaces marked by worship, prayer, and creativity. She is also a songwriter and author of Quiet Times with God, a 90-day devotional and journal designed to strengthen believers in their daily walk with God.

Episode 7 | 147 Days of Faith! A Mother’s Battle & the Miracle God Performed. HerStory w/Dr. Rasheda Jackson
Dr. Rasheda Jackson’s testimony is a masterclass in faith, endurance, and the supernatural strength God gives a mother when her world is falling apart. In this emotional HerStory episode, she shares the journey that unfolded when her 28-year-old daughter — a pregnant Navy sailor — suddenly fell gravely ill during the height of COVID.

She prayed, fasted, made life-altering medical decisions, ran her company remotely, set systems in place for her younger children, and held her family together through a storm that should have broken her. Yet God preserved her daughter. God preserved her grandbaby. And God preserved her. This conversation walks through the emotional, spiritual, and practical realities of leading while broken — and how God sustained her through one of the most traumatic seasons of her life. In this episode, she also reveals: ✨ How her praying grandmother shaped her earliest foundation in God ✨ How becoming a pastor’s wife at 24 matured her overnight ✨ The healing journey from never knowing her biological father ✨ How God sent her a spiritual father who restored her identity ✨ Why empathy without boundaries nearly destroyed her ✨ The business partnership God told her to walk away from ✨ How she built The Uncommon Network to strengthen churches and leaders ✨ Why this season is about structure, alignment, and kingdom influence She closes the episode with a prophetic reminder: “We are living in Ephesians 3:20.
