Loading player...
Join host Carlett on "Joyful Journey Home" as she sits down with Kelly Hearn, worship leader at Delta Community Church, for an intimate conversation about faith, resilience, and finding God's purpose through life's valleys and mountaintops.
In this heartfelt episode, Kelly opens up about her remarkable journey from childhood in a pastor's family to becoming a mother, accountant, and worship leader. Born into ministry when her father transformed from a 37-year-old bachelor to a devoted pastor, Kelly's faith story spans decades of growth, challenge, and divine restoration.
Kelly shares candidly about her early years singing in school amphitheaters with friends, her 20-year career at Trent Bridge, and the devastating period of divorce in 2015 that left her searching for validation in all the wrong places. She reveals how God used the COVID pandemic and John Bevere's book "Killing Kryptonite" to bring profound conviction and restoration to her life.
As a worship leader serving alongside her longtime friend Shanae, Kelly discusses the delicate balance of leading congregational worship while maintaining authentic spiritual connection. She offers practical wisdom about hearing from the Holy Spirit, the importance of corporate worship, and advice for aspiring worship team members.
From raising twins Jared and Zoe to navigating single motherhood with grace, Kelly's testimony demonstrates how God's faithfulness shines through every season. Her insights on stillness, spiritual preparation, and the acceleration she feels in her current walk with God provide encouragement for anyone seeking deeper intimacy with the Lord.
Whether you're a worship leader, parent, or simply someone walking through difficult circumstances, Kelly's story reminds us that He who began a good work is faithful to complete it. Tune in for coffee, friendship, and powerful testimony that proves God's goodness in every chapter.
