  • From Pain to Purpose with Rev Jessie

    From Pain to Purpose with Rev Jessie
    Mar 28 2026
    In this episode, we meet Rev Jessie, an Anglican vicar from Upper Hutt, who shares her transformative journey from addiction to the ministry. Her story illustrates that hitting rock bottom often prepares us to serve others in ways we never previously imagined. With Easter approaching, Rev Jessie also guides us through the significance of Holy Week—the spiritual path leading to Easter Sunday. As the most vital feast in the Christian calendar, it celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus and serves as a universal symbol of hope. Rev. Jessie’s life is a testament to the fact that we all have our own "resurrection stories" waiting to be told. This show was broadcast on OAR 105.4FM Dunedin - http://oar.org.nz
