The mission of the podcast is threefold: Empower, Equip and Encourage.
Empower - by providing a platform for God’s servants to share their testimonies on how God has been moving in their marketplace.
Equip - to equip others who are serving God in the marketplace mission field and strengthen their faith.
Encourage - to encourage fellow believers and pre-believers through hearing the testimonies of others.
Episode 7 - Chonlak Mahasuvirachai - "But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him."
What happens when God asks you to surrender the very things you have spent your life building?
In this powerful episode, Chonlak Mahasuvirachai shares her journey from corporate success, entrepreneurship and constant striving to discovering a very different kind of freedom—one rooted in trust, surrender and identity in Christ.
Her journey has taken her through career change, a call to serve God, and an aggressive cancer diagnosis. Yet through it all, she has come to hold more deeply to this truth:
“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him.” – Jeremiah 17:7
🌱 The deeper our roots grow in Christ, the more we grow—and the fruit we bear is ultimately for others.
This is an honest and hope-filled conversation about letting go of control, finding purpose beyond performance, and trusting God with the outcome.
