Summary

Have you ever watched a rocket launch into space? There's such excitement and thrill when you hear the words "lift-off!"

But... how would you feel if your husband was on board? Stacey Morgan, from Houston, Texas, gives an exclusive behind-the-scenes look into the life of an astronaut's wife as she shares the emotional roller coaster of choosing hope over fear. She will remind you of the importance of trusting God and actively choosing hope when fear is screaming for your attention.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:

"You were born for "such a time as this." Esther 4:14
At some time in your life, you will stand at the crossroads of fear and hope, and you are given the ability to choose which road to take.
God takes people who choose hope into epic adventures.

0:00.0	While we are in the midst of our own unique, difficult situations and circumstances,
0:09.1	whether that's combat deployments, illness, financial troubles, loneliness, addiction,
0:14.4	relationship struggles, or even rocket launches, God gives each of us the ability to choose
0:19.6	the decision path of either hope or fear.
0:24.1	Welcome to the Storytellers Live podcast, where everyday women share stories of hope.
0:29.7	I'm Robin, and I'm here with Lindy and Katie and we are your podcast host.
0:34.4	Today, we have a really unique story.
0:37.3	How many of us can say that we know someone that's an
0:40.0	astronaut or related or married? Much less that your husband. Right. Related to someone. So you may
0:46.5	remember if you have been a longtime listener that Stacey Morgan did an episode, it's episode 149
0:53.0	on friendship. And it was a great story on just having adult friendships.
0:58.7	Well, the more we are talking, I found out her husband was in fact an astronaut and was
1:03.2	in space during the pandemic.
1:05.6	He left in regular time, came home in the pandemic.
1:08.2	And I said, I just want to hear that story. It's not often that we have a
1:12.8	storyteller on the podcast twice, but if you're going to have one, it's going to be an astronaut's
1:17.0	life. It's just so cool. And so you're going to hear in her story. It's set up a little different
1:23.5	than our normal storytellers live podcast episodes.
1:28.0	Because Stacey is a true storyteller, and you jump right in almost in space.
1:34.3	Like they, she starts the story at Lift Off.
1:36.9	I did.
1:37.6	I felt like I was standing alongside of her waiting for the rocket to be launched into space.
