This is HIS Story
Welcome to This Is HIS Story, a podcast featuring honest conversations with people whose faith, calling, hardship, and life experiences have become a mission to serve others.
Host Todd Turner talks with nonprofit founders, ministry leaders, Bible teachers, counselors, missionaries, advocates, and everyday people who are pouring out God’s grace to hurting people around the world.
Each episode explores the moments that shaped their story: the calling they could not ignore, the need they stepped into, the people they serve, and the ways they have seen God work through ordinary obedience.
From those feeding the hungry and serving the vulnerable to those teaching Scripture, counseling the wounded, building ministries, and pulling people out of dark places, This Is HIS Story points listeners back to the true Author of every redemptive story.
Todd Turner has spent much of his life helping faith-based organizations communicate clearly, grow generosity, and build ethical digital fundraising strategies that support Kingdom work.
Listen in to discover meaningful ministries, inspiring people, and real stories of God at work.

Chris Sicks pastors One Voice Fellowship, a new multi-lingual church in Northern Virginia. They gather to experience a foretaste of Revelation 7:9, and to make Jesus known among their new neighbors.
Their logo and leadership reflect the diversity of the church. The leadership team speaks English, French, Persian, Amharic, Arabic, Korean, Japanese, Spanish, Punjabi, Uyghur, Chinese, and Urdu.
Chris Sicks has been a pastor for over 20 years. As Pastor of Mercy, he labored to show compassion in Word and deed to the congregation and community. He is founder and board president of For the Nations DC, offering English classes to refugees and immigrants four days a week, to help our new neighbors acclimate and discover the truth and love of Jesus.
Chris is a graduate of Reformed Theological Seminary DC
Previously, he worked at Gospel Rescue Mission (homeless shelter and drug treatment program in Washington, DC) and ran a scholarship/mentoring program for inner-city youth. He’s been a newspaper editor, restaurant manager, and Army officer.
Chris lost his first wife, Sara, to breast cancer. Now married to Naomi, they have four teenagers. Chris wrote Tangible: Making God Known through Deeds of Mercy and Words of Truth
He now pastors One Voice Fellowship... A gospel-centered church that glorifies God as “a light for the nations—so that all the world may be saved.” (Isaiah 49:6). We intentionally cultivate cultural and linguistic diversity, working to reduce barriers that often separate people. United in Christ, our voices and lives harmonize in a chorus of praise to God and service to one another. Compelled and enabled to love sacrificially for Jesus’ sake, our unity in diversity is a testimony to the world of what Christ alone can do as we “declare his glory among the nations!”
Listen as we discuss how God has prepared him for his unique ministry at a multi cultural church.
