From Success to Significance (Podcast Interview)
On his international podcast, Bleeding Daylight, Rodney Olsen hosts inspirational guests who are "kicking against the darkness until it bleeds daylight." His podcast website further states that his guests are people "who are making this world a better place."
Recently, I was honored to be a guest on Bleeding Daylight. The excerpt below is Rodney’s introduction of me and the episode on his website. (If you’re interested in checking out the episode, you’ll find the link at the bottom of this post.)
“In this episode of Bleeding Daylight, Lena Bjorna shares her remarkable journey from the Arctic Circle to Los Angeles, where she now leads a thriving evangelism ministry.
“After achieving significant success as an online marketing entrepreneur, Lena experienced a dramatic loss of both her business and marriage. This led her to redirect her talents toward faith-based work. Her story demonstrates how God can use life's detours and difficulties to guide us toward our true calling.
“The conversation takes an especially powerful turn as Lena shares the story of becoming a bonus mom to three sons, including Christopher, who has severe autism. Their family witnessed what they call the ‘chocolate milk miracle’ during Christopher's recovery from a life-threatening swallowing disorder, culminating in a remarkable Easter Sunday healing.
“Through her ministry work at her local church's food bank, her Christian inspirational blog, and her outreach to maximum security prisons in Mexico, Lena's story illustrates how God can transform our greatest challenges into opportunities for meaningful impact.”

Like Jesus' disciples the day after His crucifixion, we easily cave in to fear and doubt when we don't understand God's actions. The disciples had misunderstood their Master's mission. They expected Him to free them from Rome; now the Romans had killed Him. But Jesus didn't let His followers down. On Easter morning, He rose from the dead, His life, death, and resurrection being part of God's plan to save humanity. Jesus wants you and me to trust Him, too, even when things don't make sense. He knows what He's doing.
