🎧 Listen to this episode: Sermon Notes Podcast – Global Workers: Britney and Micah
📣 Share it with someone exploring a call to missions—or someone who wants to see how God uses everyday skills to make an eternal impact.

Welcome to the Sermon Notes podcast! In today’s episode, host Jay Strother sits down with Britney and Micah, a dynamic husband-wife team who have been serving in Kenya since 2020. Britney, a pediatric, general, and thoracic surgeon, shares how she’s meeting both the physical and spiritual needs of children and their families, all while training and discipling the next generation of African pediatric surgeons from across the continent. Micah opens up about his own unique role—both supporting Britney’s ministry and serving the missionary community through practical help and leading Bible studies for nurse anesthesia students.

Together, they reveal how God has woven their diverse gifts—medicine, discipleship, community service—into a holistic ministry that brings hope and healing in Jesus’ name. You’ll hear honest stories about answering a call to the mission field right in the middle of a global pandemic, what it really means to live out “multiplication matters,” and how cross-cultural experiences in Kenya have shaped their faith, their marriage, and their perspective on what “success” looks like for a missionary.

Whether managing housing logistics, coaching others to lead, or sharing how their daily lives blend faith and vocation, Britney and Micah’s journey is a profound reminder that God can use every skill, every career, and every season of life for His glory. Join us as we dig deep into their story of obedience, resilience, and the joy of making disciples in unexpected and powerful ways.
