1. Preparation: God Equips You for His Call
Heaven delves into the first P—Preparation—highlighting how God meticulously prepares individuals for their divine callings through various life experiences. She recounts her early leadership roles, starting with the Team HD Dance Camp she initiated at age 13. This dance camp served as her first venture into mentorship, guiding young girls in dance while fostering spiritual growth.
"When God calls you, He prepares you." [04:30]
Drawing parallels from the Bible, Heaven reflects on the story of Deborah and Jael in the Book of Judges. She illustrates how Jael’s seemingly ordinary role as a tent maker was a preparation ground for her to become a decisive warrior in Israel’s history.
"She was just a tent maker. Literally all day long, she would take these huge nails and peg them into the ground... God was preparing her all along for this vision of Brunch and Bible." [07:15]
Heaven connects these experiences to her personal growth, detailing her involvement in student leadership, active participation in youth church, and her role in ASA (A Service Association). Each of these roles honed her leadership skills and deepened her understanding of ministry.
2. Provision: God Supplies What You Need for the Vision
Transitioning to the second P—Provision—Heaven shares how God’s provision was evident throughout her journey. A pivotal moment occurred in April 2021 when she experienced a divine prompting to name her platform "Brunch and Bible" during her morning routine.
"I was literally having my Bible opened and I'm eating breakfast and I hear Brunch and Bible. I literally hear those three words." [15:10]
This revelation marked the beginning of a new chapter, leading her to transition from her existing platform, Slay Sisters, to focusing more on a communal and interactive approach through Brunch and Bible. Heaven emphasizes that God not only provided the vision but also the necessary resources and people to support it. She acknowledges mentors like Pastor Dari and Michelle, who played crucial roles in encouraging and assisting her.
"God will provide. If He said, 'I want you to gather women,' He brings provision in every step." [22:45]
Heaven narrates the challenges faced during the pandemic, especially in sustaining engagement through virtual platforms. Despite these hurdles, God’s provision remained steadfast, leading to the resurgence of Brunch and Bible with structured plans and the support of a dedicated media team.
"God gave us a new vision, a new purpose to impact people on a different level. He provided every single step of the way." [35:50]

The third P—Purpose—focuses on the divine mission behind Brunch and Bible. Heaven passionately articulates the platform’s overarching goal to impact women’s lives by providing a safe space for spiritual growth, fellowship, and empowerment.
"God has a purpose behind everything that He's doing from each guest." [42:30]
She shares numerous testimonials from listeners who have experienced transformation through the podcast, highlighting how Brunch and Bible has been instrumental in their spiritual journeys. The live events, such as the first episode with an audience and the upcoming mid-year women's Christian event in the Midwest, underscore the platform’s expanding influence.
Heaven underscores the importance of intentionality in every aspect of the ministry, ensuring that each event and discussion aligns with God’s purpose. She envisions Brunch and Bible reaching thousands of women globally, facilitating soul-winning and delivering profound spiritual insights.

"There will always be a point in time where you may become discouraged with your vision, but can I encourage you today to not give up?" [28:00]
However, through fervent prayer and seeking God’s direction, Heaven experienced a revival of her commitment. She emphasizes the importance of perseverance, trusting in God’s timing, and the assurance that He will provide all that is necessary to fulfill His calling.
