“What If Your Yes Could Change a Life?” With Dr. Nujerling Vargas, Kaley Olson, and Meredith Brock

What if one small act of obedience could change the entire trajectory of someone’s life? In this powerful and deeply moving episode, Meredith Brock and Kaley Olson sit down with Dr. Nujerling Vargas — a neurosurgeon from the Dominican Republic whose story is nothing short of remarkable. From walking barefoot to school and sharing a single notebook between siblings … to performing brain surgery and leading in her field, Nujerling’s journey is a testimony of what happens when someone is given the chance to dream. Through the support of Compassion International, her physical needs were met, her faith was formed, and her future was forever changed. If you’ve ever wondered whether your impact really matters, this conversation will remind you that it does — more than you know. You’ll learn: What it looks like to grow up in extreme poverty — and how it shapes your understanding of God. The life-changing impact of being sponsored through Compassion International. Why encouragement and simple words like “I love you” can transform a child’s future. How God uses ordinary obedience to accomplish extraordinary things. The powerful truth that you don’t have to be in ministry for God to use your life. Resources From This Episode: If you feel the nudge, don’t wait.
