Healing & Becoming

In this powerful and deeply moving episode of **Healing & Becoming**, Tamika Thomas sits down with **Bishop Daniel**, a Missionary Kid (MK), Pastor’s Kid (PK), global leader, and the son of the founder of **GFA World** — one of the most influential missions organizations in modern history.

Together, they dive into the real, raw, and often unseen world of global missions, the call to be *set apart*, and how God is moving in nations many of us will never see…but are still called to reach.

 Tamika’s Personal Journey: Feeling “Set Apart” Even in Her Struggle**

Tamika opens the episode with a transparent reflection on her own story — knowing she was marked by God even when she was running from Him. She relates deeply to the unique pressure of being a PK and introduces Bishop Daniel, who brings a similar lived experience as both PK and MK.

Their shared foundation creates a rich, honest conversation about identity, calling, and the tug of destiny that follows God’s children everywhere.

* Understanding the 10/40 Window & Why It Still Matters**

Bishop Daniel breaks down:

* What the **10/40 Window** actually is
* Why it represents the **most unreached people groups in the world**
* The three categories of mission fields
* Why millions still have *zero access* to a Bible, a pastor, or a church

Tamika expresses shock and compassion as she compares America’s “abundance of access” with the reality of believers in remote, impoverished nations.

* The Realities of Missionary Work (Not the Instagram Version)**

Bishop Daniel shares sobering stories from the mission field:

* Christians enduring imprisonment, beatings, and persecution
* Believers worshiping in extreme poverty
* Closed nations where following Christ costs everything
* The heroic work of national missionaries who risk their lives daily

He also outlines GFA World’s four impact pillars:

1. Equipping national missionaries
2. Caring for children
3. Transforming entire communities
4. Disaster and crisis relief

Tamika reminds listeners that even “the cost of a coffee” can directly touch a life in an unreached nation.

 Why National Missionaries Are the Key to Global Revival**

The conversation dives into the power of sending **nationals to reach nationals** — workers who already understand the language, customs, culture, and barriers.
Bishop Daniel explains his father’s groundbreaking book **“Revolution in World Missions,”** which challenged outdated missionary models and championed national missions long before it was popular.

He also shares the next chapter of GFA World’s global vision, including:

* A hospital project in Rwanda
* Supporting children and churches in Liberia
* Expanding mission work across Africa

## ** The ‘Set Apart’ Retreat: Creating Space for God Again**

Bishop Daniel introduces **Set Apart**, a life-changing retreat designed to help young people unplug, sit with God, and rediscover the whisper that is often drowned out by life’s noise.

They discuss:

* The impact of silence and stillness
* Elijah’s journey of hearing God in the “gentle whisper”
* How overstimulation is damaging the spiritual formation of today’s youth
* Why the church must offer more than hype — it must cultivate depth

## ** Practical Spiritual Tools for Every Believer**

Bishop Daniel shares simple steps for growing spiritually right now:

* Reading **“The Practice of the Presence of God”**
* Training your heart to stay aware of God throughout the day
* Listening to wise mentors
* Creating your own “set apart” moments

Tamika encourages listeners to support missionary efforts AND to step into their own harvest fields — whether that’s work, family, or community.

 Final Word from Bishop Daniel**

“Live your life fully for the glory of God. Don’t waste a day. Bring Christ’s name to the whole world in whatever way He has called you.”

This week’s episode is not light, fluffy, or surface-level it’s a divine appointment.

I sat down with **Kelly Hawley**, the founder of **Warrior Bride Ministries**, a woman whose entire life is devoted to the rescue, healing, and restoration of God’s children who have survived some of the darkest forms of exploitation.

Kelly’s mission isn’t just a ministry… it’s frontline Kingdom work.
It’s deliverance.
It’s justice.
It’s advocacy.
It’s healing.
And it’s a bold call for the Body of Christ to rise up and become educated, equipped, and engaged.

In this powerful conversation, we talk about:

* What *deep deliverance ministry* really looks like behind the scenes
* How Warrior Bride Ministries serves survivors of childhood sexual exploitation using **biblical restoration principles**
* Why so many survivors feel alone, unheard, and spiritually dismissed — and how the Church must respond
* The role of education, advocacy, and prophetic intercession in fighting exploitation
* How Kelly partners with God to create safe spaces where healing is possible and hope is unstoppable
* Her recent conferences, the miracles they witnessed, and why this work is urgently needed in every region
* What it takes spiritually, mentally, and emotionally to stand on the frontlines of darkness and refuse to retreat
* A fresh invitation for believers to step into their God-given authority and join the fight for the vulnerable

Kelly reminds us that **deep deliverance is not sensational — it’s sacred**.
And healing is not a luxury it’s a right.
God is raising up warriors, intercessors, and advocates for such a time as this… and this episode will show you exactly what that call looks like.

If you grew up in the late ’80s or ’90s, you probably remember the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles—the action figures that defined a generation. In this powerful episode of *Healing & Becoming*, Tamika Thomas sits down with **Quiggly**, the lead concept artist behind those legendary toys, who has now stepped into a new calling—creating **Ancientz**, a faith-fueled universe inspired by Hebrews 11.

After years of business success, burnout, and a spiritual awakening, Quiggly rediscovered his creative fire and found a divine mission: to tell redemptive stories through futuristic heroes built on biblical truth. Ancientz reimagines timeless legends as robotic warriors of light, reminding us that faith and imagination can coexist beautifully.

* The redemptive story of how God reignited Quiggly’s creative mission
