Rise Up!
If the Holy Spirit lives within you, then leadership is already part of your calling.
God is calling you to Rise Up and Lead — right where you are.
The world needs your light.
Your family needs your strength.
Your friends need your faith.
Believer. Child of God. It’s time.
If not now, then when?
You have one life.
You have a God-given purpose.
Don’t waste it.
Rise Up is a Christ-centered mental health platform designed to encourage you to walk boldly in God’s plan for your life. It offers hope for what you’re walking through and challenges you to face your story so you can
Reclaim, Restore, and Redeem all that the enemy has tried to steal.
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
— Romans 8:28
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Terese Kessler-Bailey joins us to talk honestly about despair, hope, and meeting Jesus in the middle of our hardest moments. She shares her own story—from a teen faith awakening to profound loss—and how spiritual integration, lament, and simple presence help us move from shame to hope. If you’ve wondered where God is in suffering, this conversation points to the One who sits with us and brings purpose from pain.
What if your first step out of hopelessness is simply telling the truth about where you are? Licensed counselor Therese Kessler Bailey joins us again to unpack how our deepest wounds can become places of encounter with God. We talk about the origins of negative thoughts, how the enemy twists truth, and what it means to invite Jesus into the hard places. If you’ve been battling lies or shame, this conversation reminds you that healing starts when you turn toward God — not away.
