Dignity Roasters is an initiative of Wear Gloves in Ocala and is truly a God story from beginning until end! Ken and Wendy Kebrdle are the founders of the ministry. It began for them in Romania, where they saw abject poverty. They couldn't deny what they saw and couldn't resist the Lord's command for them to sell everything they owned! They traded in their lives of making money and instead, bought a bus, in which they traveled the country to spend time with the homeless, the addicted and disconnected. This led them to start Wear Gloves and today, the ministry is helping the downtrodden to learn about the Lord, while earning a living. The Lord is transforming scores of people, showing us how to treat His image bearers with love.... and dignity!

When the apostle Peter encounters the transfigured Christ whose “clothes became white as light,” the apostle (somewhat understandably) does the one thing he should not do…he speaks (Matt 17:4). Before he can fully explain why he wants to create three tent or hut like structures, the heavenly Father graciously interrupts the apostle’s meandering daydream. Matthew reports: “He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him (Matt 17:5).” In this brief rebuke, the Father reveals that the proper and best human response to divine glory consists not of human ingenuity but of human listening. Pastor and author Peter Witkowski stopped by to remind us that in order to make the most of our experiences of spiritual euphoria, we must not first speak but listen.

Olivia Davis: “I hated my story. I didn’t see in it the marvelous weaving of God’s mysterious ways, the undercurrents of His love in the most impossible circumstances, or a hope that never fails. I looked at my life and saw indifference, and hurt, and a God who seemed silent when I was the most desperate for His voice. Suffering through the pain of being single felt unfair and unreasonable and unnecessary. How could Jesus be the One I wanted when this was my story?” Does this hit close to home for you? Olivia joined the conversation and shared how the love of Jesus holds her fast in her painful journey as a single.
