On the Dangerous Blueprint of How Good Is God!: Face-to-Face Supernatural Prayer Stories with Rick Osborne
Synthesizing 33 years of ministry leadership and 20 years of transformational coaching, spiritual investigative journalist Kristen Wambach joins bestselling author and educator Rick Osborne to share exclusive insights on the provocative reality of God's goodness, resting in the face-bread of oneness, and the spiritual bravery required to live outside religious performance.
"Looking Through His Eyes: Retiring the Burden of the Plow"
What got me right away was you seeing a large unharvested field that needed to be worked, and what He saw was a beautiful tomato garden ready to harvest. He was saying, 'I don’t focus on what’s not done. I focus on what’s done.' In our old self, we try to perform to get God to be pleased with us. He already is! He sees the harvest He already has in you, and He wants to walk with you to use that."
— Rick Osborne
🎧 Tune in to hear how Kristen’s faith redefined her life—and how it can do the same for you.
I looked at the Lord and saw this massive field waiting to be plowed, crying over the work still left to do. Jesus looked right back at me and said, 'You are face-to-face with Me, but you are still looking from your own perspective. Come inside Me and look through My eyes.' The moment I did, the exhaustion vanished. He doesn't focus on what is undone; He invites us to walk in the harvest He has already matured."
— Kristen Wambach
"Looking Through His Eyes: Retiring the Burden of the Plow"
For decades, we’ve been conditioned to believe that sharing the yoke with Jesus means strapping in for an endless, back-breaking haul across an unplowed field. We wake up, look at our weekly to-do list, feel the weight of our calling, and assume the heavy lifting is on us.
When I sat weeping before the Lord, asking why the harvest of years of devotion hadn't materialized, He stopped me with a simple phrase: "Remember My face-bread."
Just as the bread of the Presence sat untouched in the Tabernacle for seven days before it was consumed, Jesus wasn't calling me to strive—He was calling me into His resting place. When He told me to step inside Him and look out of His eyes, the barren, overwhelming field disappeared. In its place stood an immaculately staked, thriving tomato garden, lush and overflowing with ripe fruit. He isn't focused on what we haven't finished; He is celebrating the fruit He has already matured in our lives and asking, "Will you let Me teach you how to harvest what is already done?"

"Eight Days Till Heaven: The Dignity of Sonship"
One of the greatest deceptions of religious tradition is the lie that our final standing with God is an anxious calculation of our good deeds versus our bad behavior.
During the last days of my father's battle with Alzheimer's, grace broke through in a way I never knew to ask for. The disease dismantled the emotional barriers that had kept him quiet for a lifetime, allowing him to tell me he loved me. But as his body grew weaker, my spiritual eyes opened to a scene that forever shattered my theological categories.
For eight continuous days in his hospice room, two regal angels stood by his bedside—one holding a book, the other holding a crown, a robe, and a scepter. My dad had no documented religious achievements, no ministry résumé, and had walked away from church leadership years before over an offense. Yet the moment he stepped from this mortal realm, those angels robed and crowned him in royal majesty before he ever crossed the threshold. God does not wait to see if we measure up; in Christ, we are clothed in full sonship from the very beginning.

Episode Feature: Behind the Curtain & How Good Is God!
Rick Osborne:
Hey everyone, it's Rick. Welcome to Face-to-Face Supernatural Prayer Stories. Today's guest—and you're gonna love this guest—actually had me in the interview chair first. I was a guest on her Interviewing Jesus podcast. And today we're turning the tables. And you know, turnabout is fair play, right?
So Kristen, Kristen Wambach, is an ordained pastor, author, transformation coach—and this is my favorite part—spiritual investigative journalist. I love that. For more than three decades, she's been helping people move beyond simply knowing about God to experiencing Him personally. So you know these stories are going to be good stories. Hearing His voice and discovering how supernatural life with God becomes everyday life. She's the author of How Good Is God!, host of the Interviewing Jesus Podcast, and founder of Spiritually Brave, a global community of believers hungry to experience everything God has available to them, which all makes her a perfect guest for Supernatural Prayer Stories. Let's bring out Kristen Wambach.
Rick Osborne:
Hello, Kristen. I'm so glad that you made the time to come back here. And I've been waiting to turn the tables on you. I mean, to have you on the podcast since I was on yours. It's an honor to have you here, and I hope I do half as good as you did interviewing me. So here we go. I'm gonna ask you the first question, and that is: tell us a time where you had an intimate experience with God. In other words, God showed Himself to you in a way that was unmistakable, in a way that touched your heart, in a way that said, "I'm here and I love you." Down that vein.
Kristen Wambach:
Absolutely, absolutely. And I kind of wanted to thank you for having on James Goll recently. It was such a wonderful interview, and his book The Seer made so much difference in my life when it came to seeing and experiencing the spiritual realm. And I really appreciate that.
Rick Osborne:
He's an amazing father in the faith. He really is.
Kristen Wambach:
Yes, yes, yes. So my story. I have been asking Jesus for what, three weeks, since we danced around the microphone here. And I just said, "Okay God, there's stories and there's stories." And what I sensed on my heart is we hear so many big miracle stories, signs, and wonders. And sometimes they can feel out of reach when we hear them. Sometimes you praise God and you celebrate, but something inside you goes, "Jesus, that just feels so far away."
Rick Osborne:
"This is not for me"—which is the exact opposite. Every single story should be a "that's for me" story.
Kristen Wambach:
And that's why I wanted to talk about this today. Over the past two weeks, I've had this profound encounter with the Lord. I have been sitting in learning to always sit in His oneness, learning how to enter rest and being yoked with Christ. We all know that from scripture, but actually having an encounter where there's a testimony that I can say, "This is how it feels, this is what happened"—sometimes that's just a little bit different.
So I've been experiencing that, and the yoke part—I kind of stumbled over that. I'm a farm girl. I've driven horses before, and so it's really good that Jesus is sharing the yoke with me and He's the stronger lead. But my perspective: I'd still look out in the spirit and see this field that needed to be plowed. And I went, "Okay." I'd hang out with Him, and He said, "We can do this." And then I'd write my schematic for the week, my to-do list, and all the things that I had to do. And I felt His presence; I felt Him giving me really creative ideas. But by Tuesday, my heart had a huge "but" in it that I was wondering if I had the courage to talk about.
Here's the Lord. We're sitting in oneness. He's there working with me, yet I see this huge field that needs to be plowed. So I got my spiritually brave courage up and I said, "But what about the harvest that should be now?"
Kristen Wambach:
And I mean, I'm bawling. What about the harvest now of the past three years? We've sown some time in His presence. I'm gonna get teary-eyed here because this is now; this is what I'm walking through now.
And all of a sudden He said to me, "Kristen, remember My face-bread."
And I went, "What?"
He goes, "Remember My face-bread."
Because I'm an active journaler and I love my AI and all that stuff, I put in "face-bread," and it gives me all the lovely scriptures. And I just lost it here. It told the stories about when the priests brought the bread into the tabernacle, and that bread sat there for seven days in the presence of the Father, and then they ate it.
It just melted my heart. And then I looked at Jesus: "So what do you want me to do?"
He goes, "Well, you're always face-to-face with Me. But when you're face-to-face with Me, you're still seeing your perspective and your surroundings." And He asked me to come in Him—in Him—and look out of His eyes.
So I went in Him—don't ask me how I went in Him and looked out of His eyes—and no longer was I looking at this field that needed to be worked and plowed and more projects. I saw this gorgeous tomato garden that was staked immaculately, and there was a vineyard, and it was just this beautiful garden. And He says, "That's My perspective."
Kristen Wambach:
So, investigative journalist, I go, "Tomatoes? Tomatoes, huh?" You know, we're so used to hearing wine and tomatoes. And so I did a little Google, and it hit me that tomatoes are a vine fruit that is for the season in which they have come to fruition. And I mean, I lost it. I lost it there. And from that perspective, my little tomato sitting on my desk...
Rick Osborne:
He's a perfect teacher. Gotta do the show and tell.
Kristen Wambach:
And so when I looked from His eyes, His perspective, I saw what was around me. I saw what He thought of everything—all the creative stuff that comes out of us that we all enjoy doing, whether it's in our home, lifestyle, or ministry. All of those wonderful things that we do and we want to perceive what's going on now in this season. And that is how He taught me to go into Him to see from His perspective.
And then when I did that, my curious self said, "This is great, yay, yay, yay." But what I asked my next hard question was: "How do I harvest this?"
Kristen Wambach:
Spiritual encounters are wonderful, but let's get to the nitty-gritty here: how do you harvest it? And what He showed me—He goes, "You know, you thought the yoke where we're supposed to enter into rest was something that you were supposed to walk with Me like plowing a field. But no, that yoke is purpose so I can help you harvest your own life."
Kristen Wambach:
I was so undone. And within the week, things just broke open. I had people who called me that I haven't heard from for years. I had the proverbial check that was handed to me, and sales, and reviews, and all those things that I go, "Yay God!" And it's just because of the simple fact that He's a tomato gardener, you know? And I never asked Him before, ever: "Would You help me learn how to harvest?"
Rick Osborne:
That is so cool. That is such a great story. The first thing that I got when He said "face-bread" and "come and look through My eyes"—what I saw right away was you seeing a large field that needed to be worked, and what He saw was a beautiful tomato garden ready to harvest. In other words, He was saying, "I don't focus on what's not done. I focus on what's done."
In other words, He's saying, "All the fruit that you have in your life, I want to walk with you and have a harvest from that." Is that what He was saying to you?
Kristen Wambach:
Yes, you communicated that back wonderfully.
Rick Osborne:
Because that's what got me right away. And that is mind-blowing, because sometimes in our Adam self, our old self, we're trying to perform and get God to be pleased with us. He already is! We're looking at what we haven't done, looking at all the things we need to do, looking at the potential. And I'm a visionary, and you've got some of that in you as well. There's a good part of that, but there's also a part where it becomes performance. And I love the way the Lord turns that: "No, Rick, I see the harvest that I already have in you, and I want to use that. Let Me walk with you and use that." That's a beautiful story.
Kristen Wambach:
And immediately throughout the week, it just changed. There was immediate fruit. And that's looking through His eyes—that's what we need sometimes, to be a part of that immediate fruit. That's my tomato story.
Rick Osborne:
And the immediate fruit is amazing. I remember ministering once in a relatively small church. When I finished that message and sat back down, my eyes were opened and I saw angels at the front where the stage was with bags and bags and bags of seed. And what I knew in that second is all of those people—seed was planted there, and that seed was going to be multiplied. So turn that back into your story: He says, "I've got all these tomatoes that are ripe fruit from your life, and they all have seeds in them."
Kristen Wambach:
They do. I love simple, I love tangible, I love the response back. It's not just "Lord, You said this or I felt this." No, He took the responsibility that there was a movement there when I asked Him, "Would You help me harvest it?" It was just my undoing.
Rick Osborne:
Wow, that's a beautiful story. Okay, I can hardly wait to hear your second story. So everybody, we're going to be right back with more from Kristen Wambach, so stay with us for a minute.
Many Christians wonder: do you have to somehow qualify to hear God's voice, like be some super spiritual person? Jesus was clear about this in John chapter 10. His sheep hear His voice, recognize His voice, and listen to His voice. That's all a promise, not something you earn. Join me for the ultimate Hear God's Voice workshop at HearGodsVoiceNow.com.
Rick Osborne:
Okay, let's bring Kristen back out here. You got me shedding some tears on that one. This next one is the amazing answer to prayer. In other words, "I prayed this and God did this," a testimony of God's faithfulness. Can you tell us that story?
Kristen Wambach:
Yes. So I'm going to go just a wee bit off-script to your question, meaning: did I pray this? I did not pray this. I was not aware to ever ask for this. What my heart says is the Lord prayed it for me.
About five years ago, my father was suffering from Alzheimer's for about three years. My father was the kind of man who didn't show affection, and I don't remember praise or discipline. It was neither. He was a faithful man; he worked six days a week, but he didn't know how to be there. And so I never, ever heard the words "I love you." Ever.
So I'm helping my mom take care of my dad. Towards the end of those three years—grace and its wonderful ribbon of love—my dad was mostly bedbound. I'd come over three times a week. My dad was incontinent, a very private man, so now his only daughter is taking care of him in that way.
And sometimes we think that there isn't any grace in a disgusting disease like Alzheimer's. But what Alzheimer's did: it removed whatever wall that stood in the way of my dad telling me that he loved me.
Kristen Wambach:
I was tucking him into bed. My little King Charles jumped up on the bed in the morning, and my dad said, "Hi Christy, how are you doing?" And I said, "Hi Dad."
And he said, "I love you."
I never knew to ask for such a thing. My life was changed there. All those hindrances of life—that heaviness and firmness in him—they disappeared. Yes, because of a disease, but they were removed from his brain. And those last months, I got to experience my father.
Kristen Wambach:
Now I'm gonna add more to the story. My spiritual eyes have been open for about 20 years. My dad passing away was the first time since my spiritual eyes had been opened that I had been in such close quarters with somebody who was passing away.
For eight days, my dad was in one of those hospital beds on hospice. And all of a sudden, I saw the angels start coming in. Two angels showed up: one had a book, one had a crown and a scepter, and they stood in my father's room for eight days.
Now, my father was a man that received the Lord, but I was never aware of any transformation that occurred in his life. He went to church for a very short period of time until he got offended by the leadership, and that was it. But I never doubted that the Lord was sitting in fullness inside of him.
Those last eight days, his relatives started coming into the room. I saw my dad's spirit come out of his body three days before he passed, and he walked around with his relatives in the room. And I just went, "God, we have it so wrong. We have it so wrong." His spirit was free.
When my dad passed, those two regal angels put his robe on him, and the angel opened his book and signed—I don't know what he wrote—and he closed it, and my dad's spirit was gone.
My mind was blown because we always think there's going to be some type of judgment for all the things that we should have done or didn't do. And it wasn't that way at all. The Lord saw that my dad was fully crowned and robed before he came before Him.
Rick Osborne:
His name is written in the book. That's what's necessary. Jesus has done the work! You're in Christ. It's like the Father said to Jesus: "This is My beloved Son" before He had done a single thing.
Kristen Wambach:
I actually got to witness that. For the goodness of God to dress him appropriately for his going-home party, to have the angels there, and they signed his book at the end of his days—it was phenomenal.
Rick Osborne:
My father passed away after a number of years with Alzheimer's as well, and the exact same thing happened to him. For most of his life he was an angry person behind closed doors. When he got Alzheimer's, totally flipped. He was telling everybody how much he loved them; he was teasing, being nice.
Just before the Alzheimer's came on him, I had the pleasure of leading him to the Lord. And I was also there when my dad left the building; I saw him smile at me, kiss me on the head, and then go up. A form of affection he would have never done before that. I'm sitting here just resonating with your story like crazy.
Kristen Wambach:
There are so many things in what we've learned that are just not true about God's goodness.
Rick Osborne:
Absolutely. I love that scripture in Exodus where it says God heard the cries of His people. In the Hebrew, it was Him hearing their hearts moan and groan. He sees our desires. Who doesn't, as a father or mother, look at your children, learn what they want, and give it to them whether they've asked for it or not?
Rick Osborne:
Would you pray for everybody listening? Whatever the Lord puts on your heart, would you pray for the people listening now and in the future?
Kristen Wambach:
Father God, I thank You that my story about my dad absolutely solidified the truth that we are clothed and crowned in You, no matter our behavior.
And from that, Lord, I ask that You give us the push—the ability is already there—the push for us to actually go inside of You so that we can look out of Your eyes. Would You give us that push, God, to go sit in You and look at what You see about us?
Father, I ask that You give us the courage to believe what Jesus shows us. Write it down, meditate on it, believe what Jesus shows you, and then ask Him to teach you how to harvest what you have been shown.
I thank You, Holy Spirit, that You shifted me in my tomato story. We feel the shift here, and we just sit in that pregnant pause of Your goodness where we go, "Wow, this is what Your intercession for our lives means, and this is what it means to rest in You and be taught of You." In Jesus' name, Amen.
Rick Osborne:
Amen. Waterworks, Rick! There's gonna be people listening who want to get ahold of you, know your books and contacts. Give us a download so people know what's available.
Kristen Wambach:
KristenWambach.com. That'll get you everywhere. My dad's story of his passing is in this book: How Good Is God!. It's well-loved. My dad's story is in this book with many other phenomenal things that just changed my perspective of how good He is.
Rick Osborne:
Where can people get that book?
Kristen Wambach:
They can get it on my website, on Amazon, on Barnes & Noble. It's everywhere.
Rick Osborne:
You cannot exaggerate His goodness. Do you have any parting words before we jump off and go into Behind the Curtain?
Kristen Wambach:
What I said in my prayer: believe what Jesus shows you. That's the simplicity of the love of God. That first impression, that first prompting—grab a hold of it and write it down. And if you want to be extra bold, ask Him point-blank: "Jesus, did You just tell me that?" He immediately comes in and confirms it, and it shuts up your logic and your ego like that.
Rick Osborne:
We'll see you behind the curtain! Remember, your Father is supernatural. Keep trusting Him for supernatural answers.
Behind the Curtain (Extended Segment)Rick Osborne:
Hey everybody, welcome to Behind the Curtain. Let's bring Kristen Wambach back.
I loved it when you went into the conversation about Jesus and the yoke. Jesus said His yoke is easy and His burden is light. When we were born again, we were transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of His dear Son. We got Christ's life—His peace, His joy, His righteousness.
And here's the thing: yes, He's the leader, He's the strong one. But you don't put a little animal with a big animal in a yoke; the plow will go around in circles. You have two animals the same size. Jesus put us in Him and gave us His life. We're the same size as Him because He has given us His life, His anointing, everything He walked this life with. But He is our teacher, training us how to walk in that life. Add to the yoke stuff that you know from actually seeing yokes being used.
Kristen Wambach:
I have driven workhorses before, and it is true that the stronger horse will pull the lead and train the younger horse.
I'm right in the middle of learning how to harvest. As soon as the Lord shares something with me, I need to make it tangible. As soon as we write it down, what does it become? It becomes a word on the earth. When it's a record on the earth, it also has governance on the earth.
This morning in my prayer time, I'm hanging there with Jesus in these beautiful tomatoes that are staked, and we're picking and filling a basket. The first basket full of tomatoes, I saw my spirit carry the basket over to the edge of the garden, and I dumped it and gave it to the Father. All of a sudden my spirit goes: "Those are the first fruits."
Rick Osborne:
First fruits is a beautiful thing. Taking that first basket from that tomato vine and giving it to the Lord.
Kristen Wambach:
Back in that day, when the flower was pollinated—meaning the earth kissed it—it created the very first small bead of fruit. As soon as they saw the bead of fruit, they would cover it to mark it as the first fruit. It was the first gift.
Kristen Wambach:
The spiritual investigative journalist comes down to this: I'm a very curious person that writes almost everything down. I have 30 years of journaling. When Jesus explains something, I want Him to show me the view from His humanity. When I see His humanity, I know that because He was fully human, He had to learn all this stuff too. He had to learn a relationship with the Father; He had to learn how to read about Himself in scripture and believe God that it was Himself He was reading about.
Kristen Wambach:
When Jesus teaches us from His humanity, it's the kingdom of heaven on the timeline that we're sitting in. We can look out from His eyes on the timeline and feel what He felt.
Kristen Wambach:
I've got a story that I'm gonna be brave to share. It is written in How Good Is God!. When the Lord set me aside for three years, He took me into the lower realms of the earth.
Kristen Wambach:
I'm curious—I want to know what went on in the tomb; I want to know what happened in those three days. I was shown the lower realms of the earth. I was shown that the gates of hell is just a joke, and there's nobody guarding it. Anything that God leads us into or shows us, to me that means it's restorable. It means He's opened it up for the restoration of all things.
Kristen Wambach:
When God shows you something, He makes a path in the spirit. Once there's a path in the spirit, you can return there and He teaches you. We have the keys! Ask the Lord: "What is this key for, and what are You teaching me to govern and steward?"
One day, I got a phone call from a dear friend, Emma. Emma received a call from Kevin, whose sister had just been diagnosed with fourth-stage breast cancer. When anything horrible happened to her, her behavior was to close herself off from the family—she wouldn't let anyone help her.
As soon as Emma told me, the Lord touched my heart: who is the best person to have a sit-down with their daughter when her behavior is off? Her mama.
I knew that Stephanie's mama was not in the cloud of witnesses; I knew she was in hell. I went down to the lower realms of the earth. What do you say to a person who is in Sheol? The first thing I said was: "Your daughter needs you."
Kristen Wambach:
She recognized me. I explained that her daughter had closed herself off. When you find somebody coming to visit you in hell who is alive and not getting burned up, there's not a whole lot of convincing you have to do where you came from! Her heart melted. That oneness between mother and child melted her heart, and she believed.
At that moment, this gorgeous staircase to heaven appeared, Jesus was standing there, and she walked right out. Walked right out of hell, and Jesus greeted her.
Two weeks later, I got a phone call that Kevin's sister totally changed her behavior. She came out of her room, let the family support her, got medical help, and was completely healed of stage-four cancer.
Rick Osborne:
For people who are on the edge about that story, look at the Word of God, put it on the shelf, and ask the Lord about it. All authority in heaven, on earth, and below the earth is given to Jesus Christ, and He has all the keys.
Kristen Wambach:
When the Lord went to the lower realms during those three days to take captivity captive, who was the first person Jesus went to see? Judas. The one that betrayed Him was the first one. That melted my heart. Our current bandwidth about God's goodness is expanding.
Kristen Wambach:
In John 6:36, François du Toit in the Mirror Bible explains that to get sonship living in us, we needed to be persuaded. Jesus needed to take us into our hell to persuade us of what He did for us. I needed persuading, so I was allowed to experience it.
Kristen Wambach:
May I share a very curious thing that I experienced with Jesus in the tomb? I was shown into His tomb. He was laying on an elevated stone, wrapped. All of a sudden, He sits up, gets off the stone, and folds His head napkin.
He stands up, looks at me, bends over, and grabs this ancient gray dirt that had never seen the light of day. And He goes: [blows breath].
You know what I did? I bent over, grabbed some of that dirt, and went [blows breath] just like my Savior.
He is risen, and the dust of the earth no longer has dominion over us. Decay and disease no longer have dominion. We are no longer made of the dust.
Rick Osborne:
"Dust to dust"—that's who we were in Adam. We are no longer dust to dust! The spirit of God comes into us as a fountain of living water. The prophets say: "Rise, O Zion, shake off the dust!"
Rick Osborne:
This was a breath of fresh air. It's going to cause people to think, search the Word, pray, and do their own spiritual investigative journalism. Thank you so much for coming on, Kristen. I hope a lot of people get your book, How Good Is God!.
Kristen Wambach:
Thank you for allowing me the grace to talk.

And that's why I wanted to talk about this today. Over the past two weeks, I've had this profound encounter with the Lord. I have been sitting in learning to always sit in His oneness, learning how to enter rest and being yoked with Christ. We all know that from scripture, but actually having an encounter where there's a testimony that I can say, "This is how it feels, this is what happened"—sometimes that's just a little bit different.
So I've been experiencing that, and the yoke part—I kind of stumbled over that. I'm a farm girl. I've driven horses before, and so it's really good that Jesus is sharing the yoke with me and He's the stronger lead. But my perspective: I'd still look out in the spirit and see this field that needed to be plowed. And I went, "Okay." I'd hang out with Him, and He said, "We can do this." And then I'd write my schematic for the week, my to-do list, and all the things that I had to do. And I felt His presence; I felt Him giving me really creative ideas. But by Tuesday, my heart had a huge "but" in it that I was wondering if I had the courage to talk about.
Here's the Lord. We're sitting in oneness. He's there working with me, yet I see this huge field that needs to be plowed. So I got my spiritually brave courage up and I said, "But what about the harvest that should be now?"
Kristen Wambach:
And I mean, I'm bawling. What about the harvest now of the past three years? We've sown some time in His presence. I'm gonna get teary-eyed here because this is now; this is what I'm walking through now.
And all of a sudden He said to me, "Kristen, remember My face-bread."
And I went, "What?"
He goes, "Remember My face-bread."
Because I'm an active journaler and I love my AI and all that stuff, I put in "face-bread," and it gives me all the lovely scriptures. And I just lost it here. It told the stories about when the priests brought the bread into the tabernacle, and that bread sat there for seven days in the presence of the Father, and then they ate it.
It just melted my heart. And then I looked at Jesus: "So what do you want me to do?"
He goes, "Well, you're always face-to-face with Me. But when you're face-to-face with Me, you're still seeing your perspective and your surroundings." And He asked me to come in Him—in Him—and look out of His eyes.
So I went in Him—don't ask me how I went in Him and looked out of His eyes—and no longer was I looking at this field that needed to be worked and plowed and more projects. I saw this gorgeous tomato garden that was staked immaculately, and there was a vineyard, and it was just this beautiful garden. And He says, "That's My perspective."
Kristen Wambach:
So, investigative journalist, I go, "Tomatoes? Tomatoes, huh?" You know, we're so used to hearing wine and tomatoes. And so I did a little Google, and it hit me that tomatoes are a vine fruit that is for the season in which they have come to fruition. And I mean, I lost it. I lost it there. And from that perspective, my little tomato sitting on my desk...
Rick Osborne:
He's a perfect teacher. Gotta do the show and tell.
Kristen Wambach:
And so when I looked from His eyes, His perspective, I saw what was around me. I saw what He thought of everything—all the creative stuff that comes out of us that we all enjoy doing, whether it's in our home, lifestyle, or ministry. All of those wonderful things that we do and we want to perceive what's going on now in this season. And that is how He taught me to go into Him to see from His perspective.
And then when I did that, my curious self said, "This is great, yay, yay, yay." But what I asked my next hard question was: "How do I harvest this?"
Kristen Wambach:
Spiritual encounters are wonderful, but let's get to the nitty-gritty here: how do you harvest it? And what He showed me—He goes, "You know, you thought the yoke where we're supposed to enter into rest was something that you were supposed to walk with Me like plowing a field. But no, that yoke is purpose so I can help you harvest your own life."
Kristen Wambach:
I was so undone. And within the week, things just broke open. I had people who called me that I haven't heard from for years. I had the proverbial check that was handed to me, and sales, and reviews, and all those things that I go, "Yay God!" And it's just because of the simple fact that He's a tomato gardener, you know? And I never asked Him before, ever: "Would You help me learn how to harvest?"
Rick Osborne:
That is so cool. That is such a great story. The first thing that I got when He said "face-bread" and "come and look through My eyes"—what I saw right away was you seeing a large field that needed to be worked, and what He saw was a beautiful tomato garden ready to harvest. In other words, He was saying, "I don't focus on what's not done. I focus on what's done."
In other words, He's saying, "All the fruit that you have in your life, I want to walk with you and have a harvest from that." Is that what He was saying to you?
Kristen Wambach:
Yes, you communicated that back wonderfully.
Rick Osborne:
Because that's what got me right away. And that is mind-blowing, because sometimes in our Adam self, our old self, we're trying to perform and get God to be pleased with us. He already is! We're looking at what we haven't done, looking at all the things we need to do, looking at the potential. And I'm a visionary, and you've got some of that in you as well. There's a good part of that, but there's also a part where it becomes performance. And I love the way the Lord turns that: "No, Rick, I see the harvest that I already have in you, and I want to use that. Let Me walk with you and use that." That's a beautiful story.
Kristen Wambach:
And immediately throughout the week, it just changed. There was immediate fruit. And that's looking through His eyes—that's what we need sometimes, to be a part of that immediate fruit. That's my tomato story.
Rick Osborne:
And the immediate fruit is amazing. I remember ministering once in a relatively small church. When I finished that message and sat back down, my eyes were opened and I saw angels at the front where the stage was with bags and bags and bags of seed. And what I knew in that second is all of those people—seed was planted there, and that seed was going to be multiplied. So turn that back into your story: He says, "I've got all these tomatoes that are ripe fruit from your life, and they all have seeds in them."
Kristen Wambach:
They do. I love simple, I love tangible, I love the response back. It's not just "Lord, You said this or I felt this." No, He took the responsibility that there was a movement there when I asked Him, "Would You help me harvest it?" It was just my undoing.
Rick Osborne:
Wow, that's a beautiful story. Okay, I can hardly wait to hear your second story. So everybody, we're going to be right back with more from Kristen Wambach, so stay with us for a minute.
Many Christians wonder: do you have to somehow qualify to hear God's voice, like be some super spiritual person? Jesus was clear about this in John chapter 10. His sheep hear His voice, recognize His voice, and listen to His voice. That's all a promise, not something you earn. Join me for the ultimate Hear God's Voice workshop at HearGodsVoiceNow.com.
Rick Osborne:
Okay, let's bring Kristen back out here. You got me shedding some tears on that one. This next one is the amazing answer to prayer. In other words, "I prayed this and God did this," a testimony of God's faithfulness. Can you tell us that story?
Kristen Wambach:
Yes. So I'm going to go just a wee bit off-script to your question, meaning: did I pray this? I did not pray this. I was not aware to ever ask for this. What my heart says is the Lord prayed it for me.
About five years ago, my father was suffering from Alzheimer's for about three years. My father was the kind of man who didn't show affection, and I don't remember praise or discipline. It was neither. He was a faithful man; he worked six days a week, but he didn't know how to be there. And so I never, ever heard the words "I love you." Ever.
So I'm helping my mom take care of my dad. Towards the end of those three years—grace and its wonderful ribbon of love—my dad was mostly bedbound. I'd come over three times a week. My dad was incontinent, a very private man, so now his only daughter is taking care of him in that way.
And sometimes we think that there isn't any grace in a disgusting disease like Alzheimer's. But what Alzheimer's did: it removed whatever wall that stood in the way of my dad telling me that he loved me.
Kristen Wambach:
I was tucking him into bed. My little King Charles jumped up on the bed in the morning, and my dad said, "Hi Christy, how are you doing?" And I said, "Hi Dad."
And he said, "I love you."
I never knew to ask for such a thing. My life was changed there. All those hindrances of life—that heaviness and firmness in him—they disappeared. Yes, because of a disease, but they were removed from his brain. And those last months, I got to experience my father.
Kristen Wambach:
Now I'm gonna add more to the story. My spiritual eyes have been open for about 20 years. My dad passing away was the first time since my spiritual eyes had been opened that I had been in such close quarters with somebody who was passing away.
For eight days, my dad was in one of those hospital beds on hospice. And all of a sudden, I saw the angels start coming in. Two angels showed up: one had a book, one had a crown and a scepter, and they stood in my father's room for eight days.
Now, my father was a man that received the Lord, but I was never aware of any transformation that occurred in his life. He went to church for a very short period of time until he got offended by the leadership, and that was it. But I never doubted that the Lord was sitting in fullness inside of him.
Those last eight days, his relatives started coming into the room. I saw my dad's spirit come out of his body three days before he passed, and he walked around with his relatives in the room. And I just went, "God, we have it so wrong. We have it so wrong." His spirit was free.
When my dad passed, those two regal angels put his robe on him, and the angel opened his book and signed—I don't know what he wrote—and he closed it, and my dad's spirit was gone.
My mind was blown because we always think there's going to be some type of judgment for all the things that we should have done or didn't do. And it wasn't that way at all. The Lord saw that my dad was fully crowned and robed before he came before Him.
Rick Osborne:
His name is written in the book. That's what's necessary. Jesus has done the work! You're in Christ. It's like the Father said to Jesus: "This is My beloved Son" before He had done a single thing.
Kristen Wambach:
I actually got to witness that. For the goodness of God to dress him appropriately for his going-home party, to have the angels there, and they signed his book at the end of his days—it was phenomenal.
Rick Osborne:
My father passed away after a number of years with Alzheimer's as well, and the exact same thing happened to him. For most of his life he was an angry person behind closed doors. When he got Alzheimer's, totally flipped. He was telling everybody how much he loved them; he was teasing, being nice.
Just before the Alzheimer's came on him, I had the pleasure of leading him to the Lord. And I was also there when my dad left the building; I saw him smile at me, kiss me on the head, and then go up. A form of affection he would have never done before that. I'm sitting here just resonating with your story like crazy.
Kristen Wambach:
There are so many things in what we've learned that are just not true about God's goodness.
Rick Osborne:
Absolutely. I love that scripture in Exodus where it says God heard the cries of His people. In the Hebrew, it was Him hearing their hearts moan and groan. He sees our desires. Who doesn't, as a father or mother, look at your children, learn what they want, and give it to them whether they've asked for it or not?
Rick Osborne:
Would you pray for everybody listening? Whatever the Lord puts on your heart, would you pray for the people listening now and in the future?
Kristen Wambach:
Father God, I thank You that my story about my dad absolutely solidified the truth that we are clothed and crowned in You, no matter our behavior.
And from that, Lord, I ask that You give us the push—the ability is already there—the push for us to actually go inside of You so that we can look out of Your eyes. Would You give us that push, God, to go sit in You and look at what You see about us?
Father, I ask that You give us the courage to believe what Jesus shows us. Write it down, meditate on it, believe what Jesus shows you, and then ask Him to teach you how to harvest what you have been shown.
I thank You, Holy Spirit, that You shifted me in my tomato story. We feel the shift here, and we just sit in that pregnant pause of Your goodness where we go, "Wow, this is what Your intercession for our lives means, and this is what it means to rest in You and be taught of You." In Jesus' name, Amen.
Rick Osborne:
Amen. Waterworks, Rick! There's gonna be people listening who want to get ahold of you, know your books and contacts. Give us a download so people know what's available.
Kristen Wambach:
KristenWambach.com. That'll get you everywhere. My dad's story of his passing is in this book: How Good Is God!. It's well-loved. My dad's story is in this book with many other phenomenal things that just changed my perspective of how good He is.
Rick Osborne:
Where can people get that book?
Kristen Wambach:
They can get it on my website, on Amazon, on Barnes & Noble. It's everywhere.
Rick Osborne:
You cannot exaggerate His goodness. Do you have any parting words before we jump off and go into Behind the Curtain?
Kristen Wambach:
What I said in my prayer: believe what Jesus shows you. That's the simplicity of the love of God. That first impression, that first prompting—grab a hold of it and write it down. And if you want to be extra bold, ask Him point-blank: "Jesus, did You just tell me that?" He immediately comes in and confirms it, and it shuts up your logic and your ego like that.
Rick Osborne:
We'll see you behind the curtain! Remember, your Father is supernatural. Keep trusting Him for supernatural answers.
Behind the Curtain (Extended Segment)Rick Osborne:
Hey everybody, welcome to Behind the Curtain. Let's bring Kristen Wambach back.
I loved it when you went into the conversation about Jesus and the yoke. Jesus said His yoke is easy and His burden is light. When we were born again, we were transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of His dear Son. We got Christ's life—His peace, His joy, His righteousness.
And here's the thing: yes, He's the leader, He's the strong one. But you don't put a little animal with a big animal in a yoke; the plow will go around in circles. You have two animals the same size. Jesus put us in Him and gave us His life. We're the same size as Him because He has given us His life, His anointing, everything He walked this life with. But He is our teacher, training us how to walk in that life. Add to the yoke stuff that you know from actually seeing yokes being used.
Kristen Wambach:
I have driven workhorses before, and it is true that the stronger horse will pull the lead and train the younger horse.
I'm right in the middle of learning how to harvest. As soon as the Lord shares something with me, I need to make it tangible. As soon as we write it down, what does it become? It becomes a word on the earth. When it's a record on the earth, it also has governance on the earth.
This morning in my prayer time, I'm hanging there with Jesus in these beautiful tomatoes that are staked, and we're picking and filling a basket. The first basket full of tomatoes, I saw my spirit carry the basket over to the edge of the garden, and I dumped it and gave it to the Father. All of a sudden my spirit goes: "Those are the first fruits."
Rick Osborne:
First fruits is a beautiful thing. Taking that first basket from that tomato vine and giving it to the Lord.
Kristen Wambach:
Back in that day, when the flower was pollinated—meaning the earth kissed it—it created the very first small bead of fruit. As soon as they saw the bead of fruit, they would cover it to mark it as the first fruit. It was the first gift.
Kristen Wambach:
The spiritual investigative journalist comes down to this: I'm a very curious person that writes almost everything down. I have 30 years of journaling. When Jesus explains something, I want Him to show me the view from His humanity. When I see His humanity, I know that because He was fully human, He had to learn all this stuff too. He had to learn a relationship with the Father; He had to learn how to read about Himself in scripture and believe God that it was Himself He was reading about.
Kristen Wambach:
When Jesus teaches us from His humanity, it's the kingdom of heaven on the timeline that we're sitting in. We can look out from His eyes on the timeline and feel what He felt.
Kristen Wambach:
I've got a story that I'm gonna be brave to share. It is written in How Good Is God!. When the Lord set me aside for three years, He took me into the lower realms of the earth.
Kristen Wambach:
I'm curious—I want to know what went on in the tomb; I want to know what happened in those three days. I was shown the lower realms of the earth. I was shown that the gates of hell is just a joke, and there's nobody guarding it. Anything that God leads us into or shows us, to me that means it's restorable. It means He's opened it up for the restoration of all things.
Kristen Wambach:
When God shows you something, He makes a path in the spirit. Once there's a path in the spirit, you can return there and He teaches you. We have the keys! Ask the Lord: "What is this key for, and what are You teaching me to govern and steward?"
One day, I got a phone call from a dear friend, Emma. Emma received a call from Kevin, whose sister had just been diagnosed with fourth-stage breast cancer. When anything horrible happened to her, her behavior was to close herself off from the family—she wouldn't let anyone help her.
As soon as Emma told me, the Lord touched my heart: who is the best person to have a sit-down with their daughter when her behavior is off? Her mama.
I knew that Stephanie's mama was not in the cloud of witnesses; I knew she was in hell. I went down to the lower realms of the earth. What do you say to a person who is in Sheol? The first thing I said was: "Your daughter needs you."
Kristen Wambach:
She recognized me. I explained that her daughter had closed herself off. When you find somebody coming to visit you in hell who is alive and not getting burned up, there's not a whole lot of convincing you have to do where you came from! Her heart melted. That oneness between mother and child melted her heart, and she believed.
At that moment, this gorgeous staircase to heaven appeared, Jesus was standing there, and she walked right out. Walked right out of hell, and Jesus greeted her.
Two weeks later, I got a phone call that Kevin's sister totally changed her behavior. She came out of her room, let the family support her, got medical help, and was completely healed of stage-four cancer.
Rick Osborne:
For people who are on the edge about that story, look at the Word of God, put it on the shelf, and ask the Lord about it. All authority in heaven, on earth, and below the earth is given to Jesus Christ, and He has all the keys.
Kristen Wambach:
When the Lord went to the lower realms during those three days to take captivity captive, who was the first person Jesus went to see? Judas. The one that betrayed Him was the first one. That melted my heart. Our current bandwidth about God's goodness is expanding.
Kristen Wambach:
In John 6:36, François du Toit in the Mirror Bible explains that to get sonship living in us, we needed to be persuaded. Jesus needed to take us into our hell to persuade us of what He did for us. I needed persuading, so I was allowed to experience it.
Kristen Wambach:
May I share a very curious thing that I experienced with Jesus in the tomb? I was shown into His tomb. He was laying on an elevated stone, wrapped. All of a sudden, He sits up, gets off the stone, and folds His head napkin.
He stands up, looks at me, bends over, and grabs this ancient gray dirt that had never seen the light of day. And He goes: [blows breath].
You know what I did? I bent over, grabbed some of that dirt, and went [blows breath] just like my Savior.
He is risen, and the dust of the earth no longer has dominion over us. Decay and disease no longer have dominion. We are no longer made of the dust.
Rick Osborne:
"Dust to dust"—that's who we were in Adam. We are no longer dust to dust! The spirit of God comes into us as a fountain of living water. The prophets say: "Rise, O Zion, shake off the dust!"
Rick Osborne:
This was a breath of fresh air. It's going to cause people to think, search the Word, pray, and do their own spiritual investigative journalism. Thank you so much for coming on, Kristen. I hope a lot of people get your book, How Good Is God!.
Kristen Wambach:
Thank you for allowing me the grace to talk.
"Shaking the Gray Dust: Breaking the Grip of Human Decay"
Curiosity in the Spirit has taken me into places most religious systems warn you to avoid. Being taken on the timeline into the garden tomb taught me more about our physical and spiritual redemption than years of secondhand lectures.
Standing inside that cool, subterranean stone room, I watched Jesus sit up, carefully fold His head napkin, and stand to His feet. He reached down, scooped up a handful of that ancient, gray dirt that had never seen daylight, and blew it across the floor. I bent down, grabbed a handful of the same gray dirt, and blew it away right beside Him.
In that single, deliberate prophetic act, Christ wasn't just performing a gesture—He was announcing the end of "dust to dust." The dominion of death, decay, sickness, and generational oppression was broken forever. When we are born of incorruptible seed, the living water inside of us overrides the curse of the earth.

"The Scribe’s Mandate: Turning Revelation into Earthly Governance"
Encounters with God are not meant to remain airy spiritual daydreams. As a spiritual investigative journalist, my rule is simple: if Jesus speaks it or shows it, I write it down, anchor it, and ask how to execute it on Monday morning.
When revelation is scribed onto the page, it becomes a permanent record on the earth that carries real spiritual authority. Whether it is dedicating the first basket of your harvest to the Father or stepping into the deep places of intercession to rescue a broken family line, God is looking for believers who are spiritually brave enough to believe what they are shown. It is time to leave the spectators' benches, lay down the performance checklist, and take your hard-wired position on the field.

Final Summary
In this high-stakes Part II conversation on the globally ranked Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino, Kristen Wambach—noted spiritual investigative journalist and ordained pastor—reveals the "dangerous blueprint" behind her new 400-page work, How Good is God. This interview serves as a profound exploration of what it means to exhaust oneself on the field of battle to achieve a "finest hour" of spiritual victory.
Monday-morning Outcomes
- The Face-Bread Standard of Rest: True spiritual rest begins when you stop looking at Jesus with your own anxious perspective and start looking out through His eyes. When you see from His vantage point, the overwhelming, unplowed field of religious striving vanishes into a ripe, thriving harvest.
- Harvesting What is Already Done: The yoke of Christ is not a heavy harness for endless labor; it is a shared seat of purpose where Jesus teaches you how to gather the mature fruit and seeds already present in your life.
- Sonship Precedes Performance: Royal dignity, robes, and crowns are gifts of incorruptible grace, not merit badges earned through flawless behavior. Like the Father declaring His love over Jesus before a single miracle was performed, your identity as His child is settled from the start.
- The End of "Dust to Dust": When Jesus rose in the tomb and blew away the ancient gray earth, He broke the dominion of human decay, sickness, and generational defeat. In Christ, you are no longer bound to the dust of Adam, but filled with the living fountain of eternal life.
- Scribing as Earthly Governance: Revelation is not meant to remain an abstract daydream. Capturing what the Lord reveals makes it a tangible record on the earth, releasing spiritual authority, practical clarity, and real-world momentum.
- The Bandwidth of God’s Goodness: The love and restorative reach of God consistently cross the boundaries of human tradition, fear, and religious theology. He hears the quiet groans of the heart and moves with deep compassion to reconcile and restore.
The Authority Perspective: Kristen positions the humanity of Christ as the ultimate roadmap for our own transformation. By arguing that Jesus laid down His deity to learn, grow, and overcome as a man, she provides a practical path for every seeker to step into Spiritual Bravery. This episode is not just an interview; it is a call to action for those ready to confront their limitations and live with bold spiritual clarity.
Kristen Wambach is the multi-hyphenate world changer leading that change, bridging the gap between Heaven and Earth one conversation at a time.

PRESS RELEASEAuthor and Spiritual Investigative Journalist Kristen Wambach Joins Bestselling Author Rick Osborne to Redefine the Boundaries of Faith, Rest, and the Supernatural Realm
Featured on "Face-to-Face Supernatural Prayer Stories," Wambach unveils the core prophetic encounters behind her book "How Good Is God!" and launches an interactive AI-powered discipleship model. Corvallis OR — August 25, 2026 — Ordained pastor, transformation coach, and spiritual investigative journalist Kristen Wambach joined internationally bestselling author and educator Rick Osborne on the broadcast Face-to-Face Supernatural Prayer Stories to discuss the theological and experiential breakthroughs detailed in her landmark book, How Good Is God! Coaching Church: Beyond the Gates of Hell to Truly Experience Heaven. |
We need to step outside the religious boundaries we've been marshaled to believe and get into the nitty-gritty of the truth," says Wambach. "God is so much "Gooder" than our current bandwidth, and it’s time we start asking the questions that demand a miraculous response." —Kristen Wambach
The interview explores how everyday believers can dismantle religious performance, step out of burnout, and enter a direct, conversational relationship with Jesus.
Drawing from more than three decades of ministry leadership and 20 years of transformational coaching, Wambach shares a series of encounters with Osborne—including a transformative vision in a "tomato garden" that reframed Christian labor, an eight-day angelic visitation during her father’s hospice care, and scribing the resurrection authority of Christ inside the garden tomb.
"For generations, believers have been conditioned to view their faith through the lens of an unharvested, exhausting field—believing that sharing the yoke with Jesus means endless, back-breaking striving," says Kristen Wambach. "When Jesus invited me to step inside Him and look through His eyes, the barren field vanished into a mature, thriving garden. God is not focused on what we haven't finished; He is walking with us in the finished fruit of our lives."
Host Rick Osborne, whose books and curriculum have reached millions worldwide, affirmed the message during the broadcast:
"In our old self, we are constantly trying to perform to get God to be pleased with us, but He already is," noted Osborne. "What resonated with me immediately is that God doesn't focus on what is undone—He sees the ripe harvest already formed in our lives and walks with us to steward it."
The episode serves as the official media launchpad for Wambach’s new discipleship ecosystem, which pairs her 440-page investigative volume and companion Redemptive Activation Journal with the Activation Concierge—a proprietary, 24/7 AI-guided interactive companion housed inside the Coaching Church Member Hub.
