She Married Against Her Family’s Wishes and Culture… And It Led Her to Christ with Sazan Hendrix
Happy & Healthy with Jeanine Amapola WardShow Notes
I’m sitting down with the incredible Sazan Hendrix for a conversation that gave me chills. Sazan shares her powerful testimony about how she found Jesus at 21 years old after hitting rock bottom. After a painful breakup and feeling completely lost, she prayed one simple prayer asking God to reveal Himself… and that night she had a dream that changed everything.
Before she ever opened a Bible or stepped into church, Sazan says she began encountering Jesus through dreams and experiencing a peace she had never known before.
We also talk about the challenges she faced when she fell in love with her now-husband Stevie — including the reality that her parents initially didn’t approve of their relationship because of cultural differences.
If you’ve ever wondered how God speaks, struggled with family expectations, or questioned whether God is real, this conversation is going to encourage you so much.

Girl, this episode is for you if you've been secretly struggling but feel like you have to pretend everything is okay because you're a Christian. 🤍
Kaleb and I are back with PART TWO of our marriage confessions series, and y'all… the husbands did NOT hold back! 😂
Okay y’all… this episode is JUICY. 😂 Kaleb and I asked women to anonymously share the things they would never tell their husbands, and some of these confessions genuinely had us speechless.
Today we’re talking about everything I think we need to leave behind this fall: productivity guilt, doom scrolling instead of having hobbies, being reachable 24/7, performing our lives instead of actually living them… and yes, decorating for Christmas WAY too early. Plus, I’m answering your questions at the end! Grab a coffee, go on a walk, and let’s catch up. 🤎
Okay you guys, this episode is a GOOD one. Kaleb and I are sitting down with Pastor Luke Lezon and putting him in the hot seat with some of the questions Christians are actually asking—but sometimes feel afraid to say out loud.
