One of the most far-reaching projects is the Dignity Project. One day, a lady approached me in Bumala B. ‘Sister Becky, please will you pray for my daughter? She’s been missing for three months.’ Within days, another lady approached me: ‘Please pray for my missing child. My daughter has been gone for five months now.’ As I asked more questions, it became clear what had happened. Here, right on the doorstep of King’s School, right in the village of Bumala B and the surrounding villages, sex traffickers were at work. What could we do? The Dignity Project was born.”
Becky Murray, Embrace the Journey
Saying Yes to God
One of the primary benefits of Today’s Heartlift with Janell, the podcast, is meeting truly remarkable people.
Today, in this episode, you are meeting a young woman whose bravery and courage inspire me and I know it will inspire you.
She’s humble and fierce.
As you will hear, a simple, yet profound providential encounter with a little girl named Felicity, became Becky Murray’s non-negotiable invitation to follow God’s call.
In this episode, you will:
- Be inspired to listen and look for God in unique, special, often surprising ways.
- Be challenged to say YES, even when it scares you beyond all belief.
- Be invited to move outside your comfort zone.
- Be led to give of your resources to help those in need.

Have you ever wondered how joy can transform your daily life and relationships? Join me as I recount a heartwarming car ride with my daughter Brooke and granddaughter June, where the simple act of being together amplified our sense of joy. Inspired by Psalm 16:11, we explore how joy becomes a profound relational experience that binds us more deeply with each other and with God. Drawing on insights from Jim Wilder's enlightening article ”Joy Changes Everything,” we discuss the pivotal role joy plays in shaping our character and identity, ultimately leading us to a more fulfilled life.
Start your day with a mindset of gratitude and recognition of God's presence, setting the stage for a joyful journey. From lifting your hands in a morning ritual to sharing precious moments with loved ones or even pets, every gesture can enhance your joy. Discover how these intentional practices not only nurture personal happiness but also strengthen our connections with those who are truly glad to be with us. Together, let's embrace the promise of finding fullness of joy in God's presence and unlock a deeper sense of contentment in our everyday lives.
