Show Notes

Grab a seat with us as we chat to Rachel John, West End actress, singer, and storyteller whose faith has shaped every step of her journey.

From her early days as a secretary to making her debut in The Lion King and later earning an Olivier Award nomination for Hamilton, Rachel shares how faith, perseverance, and God’s timing have carried her through the highs and lows of her career.

We unpack what it really means to trust God in an industry built on uncertainty, when “no” doesn’t mean “never,” when the spotlight fades, and when the journey looks different from what you imagined. Rachel opens up about learning to see closed doors as divine redirection, staying grounded in prayer through the waiting, and why her goal is simple but powerful: to make God famous through her life and gift.

This conversation is full of heart, from childhood memories of growing up in church and finding community, to rediscovering peace during the pandemic, to falling in love again with the accessibility and beauty of God’s presence in everyday life.

Scriptures mentioned: Psalms 42:5, Jeremiah 29, Romans 8:28, 2 Corinthians 12:9
