In this powerful episode, Dave sits down with Pastor Noriko Reid, one of the senior pastors at Hope Church on the Gold Coast, to share her raw and redemptive journey through anxiety, depression, and into freedom through Jesus.
Through God’s faithfulness, the power of His Word, and the support of faith-filled community, Noriko experienced healing. Today, she leads with compassion, offering hope to those still in the fight. Her story is not just about survival—it’s about God’s power to redeem, restore, and repurpose our pain.
This episode is more than an interview—it’s a lifeline. Whether you’re in the valley yourself or walking with someone who is, Noriko’s testimony is a beacon of hope.
