Joshua 1 Nine Podcast

Adopted by Love: Ivy’s Powerful Testimony

This episode is extra special because we’re kicking things off with Ivy Ball, the host’s daughter—a powerful testimony of redemption, purpose, and God’s faithfulness.

Ivy’s journey began in foster care, walking through uncertainty, loss, and transition. But God had a plan the whole time. Through adoption, healing, and surrender to Jesus, Ivy’s life became a living example of Joshua 1:9—“Be strong and courageous… for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

Today, Ivy lives fully for the Lord. She dances for God, runs cameras, serves behind the scenes, and helps make ministry happen—showing that purpose doesn’t start on a stage, it starts with obedience.

This podcast is about:
➡️ Courage when life is hard
➡️ Faith when the future is uncertain
➡️ Purpose after pain
➡️ Trusting God when your story doesn’t start easy

If you’ve ever felt overlooked, rejected, or unsure where you belong—this episode is for you.
