    S3 | Ep.14 Reflection Episode: Tracing Kathleen Johnson's Memorial Stones
    Jun 3 2026
    Send us Fan MailIn this reflection episode, Brenda unpacks one powerful memorial stone from her conversation with speaker, author, and Bible teacher Kathleen Johnson—widely known as Scripture Girl. Kathleen’s story of emerging from fear, an unwanted divorce, and people-pleasing into a deep, scripture-rooted identity in Christ becomes a vivid picture of Memorial Stone 10: Benjamin—Son (Daughter) of the Right Hand. Brenda traces how Kathleen learned to think it, see it, and say it—internalizing God’s Word until it transformed her from the inside out—and invites you to consider where God may be calling you to shift your gaze from the horizontal to the vertical.Listen to the episode Brenda is reflecting on here.============================================================================About Kathleen JohnsonKathleen Johnson, widely known as Scripture Girl, is a dynamic Christian speaker, author, and teacher with a passion for helping believers experience the transformative power of God’s Word.

    In this reflection episode, Brenda traces three memorial stones from her conversation with award-winning author and speaker Hadassah Treu — the hidden seed planted through a grandmother's New Testament in communist Bulgaria, the God-orchestrated love story that became a season of deep joy and healing, and the three courageous decisions Hadassah made after the devastating loss of her husband that shifted her grief journey forever. Along the way, Brenda unpacks what it truly means to trust God without needing understanding, why gains are eternal while losses are temporal, and how God's definition of "good" is always bigger than ours.
