Bobbie is an author, entrepreneur, twice widowed and ambassador of encouragement who has been involved in kingdom-building efforts around the world. Currently living in the Dallas area, Bobbie also works as a freelance consultant, connecting ministries to people with valuable skills. In our authentic conversation, Bobbie shares her “NEW HABITS CREATE CHANGE” God Story about how how God
guided her to start the Branch to Hope app to encourage people to come together and renew their lifestyles through prayer. She shares how God also told her that the focus of Branch to Hope was to be daily prayer and to add the Color of the Day Challenge, which includes bracelets and the daily devotional, prayer and color of bracelet for that particular day to intentionally creating new habits by weaving the Fruit of Jesus Spirit into our lifestyle each day. She shares how Jesus is with her through her struggles and how she creates a seat at her table for Him. In closing, she encourages others to listen to the Lord if they are feeling hopeless and without purpose to move forward in their lives.

This episode also includes a mental health tip from our ministry partner and licensed mental health professional, Sherrie Pucket.

We have no time not to think about how we can live a little bit better and make a difference in people’s lives.
When you live in the character of Jesus in a volatile world that’s chaotic, crazy, challenging, and confusing, and you are kind, joyful, peaceful, and faithful to your words, people pause and take notice because that is so unlike what we are seeing in the world.
Bobbie shares her “New Habits Create Change” God story.
With God’s help, she wrote her devotional, Pause and Pray. She was living out on a limb for Jesus.
The power of prayer when two or more join together is so dynamic. It is amazing when we focus on the power of prayer.
You are never too old if you listen to the voice of the Lord.
Get yourself in an environment to listen to the Lord. He is right there. That is so vital.
Prayer is nothing more than chit chatting with Jesus. That is what a relationship with the Lord is.
Just listen to the Lord. He has equipped you for something. Just move forward.
If you are on a road and you don’t know which way to go, just move forward. He will course correct you.
