Let’s dive into this uplifting discussion with Lisa McGaw — a woman of faith, depth, and unwavering hope.
Welcome Ma and Congratulations on your new book. Can you tell us a little about yourself?
I am a minister of the Gospel with a heart for sharing God’s truth and love. I am also a songwriter and an author, using music and words as tools to inspire faith, healing, and hope. Beyond ministry, I am a devoted wife and a proud mother of two boys, committed to nurturing both my family and my calling with purpose and grace.
Can you tell us a little about yourself and what inspired you to write this book?
I am called to be an evangelist, and that calling has given me a deep passion to encourage, teach, and enlighten God’s people. I carry a special burden for the brokenhearted—those moments when it feels like silence is speaking louder than God’s Word. In this generation, emotions often cloud our understanding of times and seasons, making it easy to lose clarity and hope.
Through Spirit-led worship, I help lead people into deeper connection and intimate conversations with God. My heart’s desire is to see lives break through into true revival. I have lived and learned that revival evokes healing and restores hope, and this truth became a major foundation for writing this book.
This book is inspired by both my personal life testimonies and my evangelism journey as a believer in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. It is written to remind readers that even in silence, God is present, speaking, healing, and drawing us back to Himself.
What problem or need does your book address for readers?
One of the core purposes of this book is to encourage readers to remain assured and focused, even in the midst of the fire—during trials and seasons of testing that may feel ongoing or unending. It reminds them that God is actively birthing purpose within them, even when the process feels painful or unclear.
This book addresses the need for reassurance, hope, and spiritual clarity in difficult seasons. It gently reminds readers that grace is real, God is present, and hope will not fail those who remain obedient and anchored in Him. Even in the waiting and the refining, God is working with intention and love.
What experiences or expertise gave you the authority to speak on this subject?
My authority to speak on this subject comes from both theological training and personal experience. I studied theology at COGIC College, where I earned a Certificate of Distinction in Homiletics. I have also received formal training in Evangelism and in the study of both the Old and New Testaments. In addition, I serve as the President of the SOF Women’s Ministry, where I continue to grow through ongoing ministerial training and leadership development.
Beyond academic training, my greatest qualification is my testimony. I have been tested and tried, yet I have remained under the blood-stained banner of Jesus Christ. I have fallen, but by the grace of God, I rose again—always to the glory of God. These lived experiences have shaped my faith, deepened my understanding, and given me the compassion and conviction to speak with authenticity to those walking through similar seasons.
If your readers could remember just one sentence you’ve ever spoken or written, what would it be?
“God’s grace can never and will never run out—it’s yours; all you need to do is ask for it and claim it.”
