“Lupus Didn’t Kill Me… It Brought Me Back to God.” These powerful words from today’s guest, Christa Syreeta, encapsulate a story of resilience, divine healing, and spiritual transformation. In this deeply moving episode of Grace Through Storms, host Jessica Webb, a licensed mental health therapist, welcomes her longtime friend and fellow educator to share her remarkable testimony of surviving Lupus, overcoming domestic abuse, and discovering purpose through pain.

From classrooms to fitness studios, hospital beds to healing altars, Christa’s story is one of struggle and supernatural breakthrough. Diagnosed with Lupus during an emotionally and physically taxing season, Christa explains how stress, trauma, and life’s battles activated an autoimmune disorder that would change her—but not destroy her.

“It was the perfect storm,” Christa shares. Years of unrecognized symptoms—fatigue, hair loss, joint pain—led to a breaking point. Emotionally drained and spiritually dry, she literally ran from everything, seeking peace, only to walk straight into a diagnosis that became her deliverance.

But God.

Through faith, Christa reveals that God didn’t just heal her body—He healed her soul. She opens up about the emotional toll of domestic violence, the agonizing pain of Lupus flares, and the long road to forgiveness. Each moment, though painful, pulled her closer to God.

Jessica and Christa dive into faith and medicine, mental health and divine healing. They explore the importance of speaking life over your body, trusting God through suffering, and learning to listen—both to your body and to His voice. Christa’s testimony of rocking herself to sleep, crying through the night, and battling suicidal thoughts is raw and vulnerable. And yet, she heard God whisper: “Mercy said no.”

This episode goes beyond Lupus—it’s about reclamation. Reclaiming identity, faith, health, and hope. Christa shares how God used her pain to turn her into an advocate, a motivator, and a voice for others. Her extreme step aerobics journey became both spiritual warfare and inspiration for others living with chronic illness.

Through tears, Scripture, laughter, and even song, Christa and Jessica remind us that God has not abandoned us in the storm. In fact, the storm may be the rescue.

Highlights from this episode:

• How stress activated Christa’s Lupus—and how she found out

• The emotional and spiritual impact of abuse, illness, and isolation

• Why surrendering to God was key to her restoration

• Her physical and spiritual transformation through therapy, prayer, fitness, and faith

• The power of speaking Scripture over your body and rejecting limitations

• Her upcoming “Stepping for Lupus” event with the Lupus Research Alliance

• A reminder that your pain can be a platform for God’s glory

In this deeply moving episode of Grace Through Storms, host Jessica Webb welcomes not just any guest—but someone closest to her heart: her eldest son, Jayden. With raw honesty and vulnerability, this mother-son duo shares a life-altering story of pain, grace, and the miraculous hand of God.

From a young age, Jayden was drawn to motorcycles, nurturing a passion that began with dirt bikes and, at 19, led him to buy his first crotch rocket. Despite Jessica’s prayers and warnings, Jayden pursued what he believed was freedom and independence. But that dream soon turned into a nightmare.

In a heart-stopping moment, Jayden was struck by a large truck while riding. The crash was so severe, police initially believed he had died. With both arms shattered, a metal rod driven through his knee, and multiple surgeries ahead, his physical injuries were only part of the story. What unfolded next was nothing short of miraculous.

Jessica recalls being prompted by the Holy Spirit to pray specifically for her children just hours before the accident. It’s a moment she reflects on with tears—a chilling but faith-affirming confirmation of divine intervention. Meanwhile, Jayden, who had become distant from his faith, shares how the accident became a pivotal spiritual awakening. As his body lay broken, his spirit began to awaken.

Jayden opens up about the mental and emotional toll of recovery—months of depression, pain, and isolation—and the quiet but powerful ways God began speaking to him. He describes how God’s voice, once silent to him, became clearer and transformational. From being unable to do a single push-up due to plates and screws in his arms to miraculously passing the correctional officer physical exam after prayer and anointing, Jayden’s story is a living testimony of God’s healing and purpose.

Together, Jessica and Jayden talk about divine warnings, obedience, physical rehabilitation, and the gritty moments of healing—including Jessica bathing her adult son when he was completely incapacitated. Through it all, Jayden never lost his humor or his faith. In fact, it was in the midst of suffering that his purpose was revealed.

The episode also emphasizes the importance of cultivating a relationship with God before the storm hits. Jayden admits that if he had been in tune with God sooner, he may have heard the many warning signs—friends in accidents, tragic losses, near-misses. But God, in His mercy, used what was meant for harm to align, correct, and restore him.

Jessica’s unwavering faith and transparency shine as she recounts how she prayed, cried, doubted, and surrendered. Her journey as a praying mother is one of fierce love and humble trust in God’s perfect timing—even through trauma.

If you’ve ever questioned why God allows storms… wondered whether prayer really works… or if you’re a parent watching your child make dangerous choices… this episode is for you. It’s a raw, faith-filled conversation about redemption, resilience, and the radical grace of God.

Through tears, laughter, and testimony, Jessica and Jayden remind us that God is near—even in the valley. He still speaks. He still heals. And sometimes, the very storm we fear is the one that brings us home to Him.

"Your storm might not destroy you—it might just save you."

In this deeply moving and revelatory episode of Grace Through Storms, host Jessica Webb welcomes Angelica Eason White—a licensed professional counselor, relationship coach, and dynamic woman of faith—who shares how God planted the seed for her powerful ministry: Navigating Your Divine Waiting Season.

Born from a Holy Spirit encounter during worship, Angelica’s ministry is rooted in her personal journey as a woman once unsure of her worth, marriage potential, and divine identity. She didn’t grow up with the best examples of love—and God used that gap to build a vision. This episode dives into identity, discernment, and spiritual preparation for women seeking marriage—and why your relationship with God must come first.

Jessica and Angelica explore how many women chase relationships for validation, often placing romance on a pedestal, only to end up disconnected from themselves and from God.

"When you are desiring to be in a relationship, sometimes that person becomes your idol.” – Jessica Webb

They unpack how to break that cycle through intimacy with the Father, solitude, and surrendering to God’s process—even when it’s uncomfortable.

From group sessions to real-life testimonies, Angelica explains the mission of her ministry: to help women know their “why” before stepping into covenant. She emphasizes that God does not call women to wait in vain, but to wait with purpose—ensuring they’re not attaching prematurely to someone who isn’t spiritually aligned.

"God didn’t just create marriage—He created you first, with purpose.”

They tackle timely topics like:

• Love bombing, narcissism and emotional manipulation in dating

• How discernment flows from communion with God

• The deception of people who “look the part” but aren’t sent by God

• Fasting, prayer and intercession as tools of spiritual warfare

• Why healing and self-knowledge matter more than “finding the one”

Angelica shares how obedience led her to offer this ministry pro bono—starting as a way to serve and spiritually blueprint the work—while preparing to expand into deeper levels of coaching. Jessica recalls her first session, when she didn’t even desire marriage, and how the spiritual environment changed her mindset.

They also discuss Angelica’s marriage to a Muslim man and how love, respect, and unapologetic Christian identity allow them to thrive without compromise.

"It’s not about forcing someone into your faith—it’s about them seeing the God in you.”

Through transparency and humility, Angelica explains how her faith guides her role as a wife—anchored in prayer, fasting, and accountability to God first.

Throughout the episode, both women offer gems of wisdom—from redefining self-care beyond the salon to viewing solitude as sacred time with God. Jessica shares a metaphor about a damaged tree with deep roots, reminding us that what appears broken can still thrive if rooted in Him.

Key Takeaways:

• Wait with purpose, not pressure

• Your love cannot fix someone—only God’s love transforms

• You don’t need a title to intercede—just surrender

• Discernment is a fruit of intimacy with God

• The love of God must come before any romantic love

Whether you’re a woman in waiting, a wife seeking spiritual renewal, or healing from relational wounds, this episode will bless and challenge you. Angelica’s ministry isn’t about promoting marriage as the goal—it’s about becoming whole and aligned with God’s will.

Ready to step into your divine waiting season—or redefine it with God at the center? This episode will stir your spirit and shift your mindset. Jessica and Angelica deliver truth with compassion and lived experience.
