Deciding to Follow Jesus with Shea and Michelle Watson

Content Warning: Discussions of violence, trauma, and mental health

Today, Shea and Michelle Watson join Dagmar and Janell on the podcast. Shea and Michelle share about their faith journeys, what helped them chose to follow Jesus, and the ministry they have created. Dagmar explains why she feels like she is holding back from surrendering to Jesus. They also have a discussion about being good with God and what you can expect to lose and gain when you follow Jesus. We hope you enjoy this episode!

SHEA WATSON
Shea says he’s, “just a man who loves Jesus.” Michelle, his wife and The Pantry Podcast co-host. adds the rest. Shea is a veteran of the U.S. Army and a soldier in the Army of the Lord. After running to everything but Jesus for 41 years, he submitted to the Lord on New Year’s Day. It was then that Christ miraculously delivered Shea from addiction, PTSD, delusions, and flashbacks and awakened his hunger for the Lord. Now, Shea leads their church’s mens ministry and a life group, works a 9-to-5, and runs In Full Color ministries to spread the Gospel and stock their food pantry in Kisumu, Kenya.

MICHELLE WATSON
Michelle is an east coast millennial wife and mama all about the Word of God determining opinions and not the other way around. But it wasn’t always that way. She was raised in an anti-Christian city just outside of D.C, drank the higher-ed kool-aid of critical theory, and lived a life of loneliness, anxiety, and depression despite being surrounded by friends and urban night life. Relative truth and the new age reigned until an add series of events lead her to Truth, Himself. Now she and her husband Shea serve up spiritual nutrition on The Pantry Podcast and helps Busy Christian Creatives reach the lost and found by maximizing their digital reach in minimal time.
