Here I am. Send me!

Emily Rogers

This podcast is named after the Scripture passage Isaiah 6:8 - “Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?" "Here I am ,” I said; “Send me!" The Lord asks all of us to do His will for our lives. Isaiah excitedly tells the Lord that he can share the message with his people that God desires him too. This is something I want to strive for every day and that's the kind of content you'll here on this podcast: extraordinarily ordinary people boldly and courageously telling God: Here I am. Send me! in the big and small moments of their lives.
