The Mary Forsythe Podcast
Welcome to The Mary Forsythe Podcast, presented by Kingdom Living Ministries. Mary Forsythe is on a remarkable journey—one that has taken her from small-town beginnings to big city glamour to time in prison, from selling lemonade in her front yard to an impressive stock portfolio by the time she was in her mid-twenties. She knows what it’s like to gain material wealth and social status—and then to lose it all. After suffering deep disappointment and loss, Mary finally found everything she’d been looking for all her life. The Mary Forsythe Podcast invites listeners to discover what it means to truly live in the Kingdom of God. With warmth, honesty, and spiritual depth, Mary shares stories from her own remarkable journey—from brokenness and incarceration to transformation through friendship with the Holy Spirit. Each episode offers authentic conversations, biblical insights, and practical wisdom for living loved and sharing that with others in everyday life. Join Mary as she explores the beauty of kingdom living.

In this episode of The Mary Forsythe Podcast, presented by Kingdom Living Ministries, Mary welcomes guest Katie Scurja for a deep, hope-filled conversation about identity, healing, and the gospel through the lens of the Imago Dei—the truth that every person is created in the image of God.
Katie shares her journey from a staunch Catholic upbringing to a life-changing encounter with God’s goodness, and how discovering Imago Dei reframed everything: shame, salvation, transformation, and the way we relate to others.
Catherine (Katie) Skurja is a writer, teacher, spiritual director, and speaker whose work has been shaped by a lifelong desire to help people experience real hope and freedom in their everyday lives. She is the founder and director of Imago Dei Ministries in North Plains, Oregon. The questions and struggles that marked her early faith journey continue to inform both her teaching and her writing.
