Your Story Is Your Platform: How God Uses Ordinary Obedience for Extraordinary Impact
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the very thing you walked through is the very thing God wants to use?
In this episode of The RISE Leadership Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Dixon and Phil McMichael sit down with Cross Church dream teamer Kelly Stamps to explore how God turns seasons of waiting, pain, and ordinary obedience into powerful ministry. Kelly never set out to build a platform but through simple faithfulness, God used her story to impact thousands and to connect couples around the world.
This conversation will challenge you to see your life differently. Your leadership doesn’t start on a stage—it starts in your story. If you’ve ever wondered whether God could use your past, your pain, or your everyday faithfulness to make a difference, this episode will remind you: He already is.
