Stacey Callender, a woman whose life has been defined by unwavering faith and strategic prayer, shares her journey of divine preparation during a battle with glioblastoma. What begins as a tender reunion with longtime friend Cheryl Broderson unfolds into a powerful testimony of how a lifetime of devotion—rooted in childhood faith, a miraculous love story with her husband Scott, and decades of leading Moms in Prayer—has equipped her to face terminal illness with peace and purpose. Stacey reveals that her prayer ministry wasn’t just about interceding for children, but about creating a spiritual war strategy against spiritual darkness in schools and homes. Her story is not one of survival, but of surrender: she’s not fighting to live, but to glorify God in suffering. The episode’s most striking revelation? That prayer isn’t just a spiritual practice—it’s a frontline weapon in a generational battle for the hearts of the next generation.
Prayer is a spiritual war strategy, not just a devotional habit—Stacey led a prayer group that actively interceded for schools, teachers, and students against spiritual darkness.
Stacey’s love story with Scott began when she told him, 'Unless you love Jesus like I love Jesus, this relationship won’t go anywhere'—a bold, faith-driven boundary that led him to commit his life to Christ.
Moms in Prayer is a non-denominational, intergenerational movement that uses God’s attributes as a framework for prayer, making it accessible and powerful for women of all backgrounds.
Stacey’s children were raised in a legacy of faith and prayer, and now both her 31-year-old daughter and 23-year-old son walk deeply with Jesus—proof that intergenerational discipleship works.
Even in the midst of a glioblastoma diagnosis, Stacey sees her suffering as divine preparation: 'I was ready for this trial, prepared to serve him in this suffering.'
