Living Courageously, Transforming Lives

More life & transformation through Jesus Christ.

HEALING - HOPE - FREEDOM

More life and transformation through Jesus Christ.

Embracing Life is a Christian healing ministry that offers a range of programs and books which are designed to help believers struggling with life-controlling issues.

Our material and teaching lead people into freedom and abundant life in Christ, helping them overcome root issues of anxiety, depression, shame, self-hatred, physical issues and more.

The ministry was started by Jonathan Hunter in 1985 and has helped thousands of believers worldwide.

Jonathan visits with friends Eric and Marta Darby.

Eric is a former, longtime Board member of Embracing Life Ministries and has participated in ELM’s Zoom seminars on depression and anxiety. 

Marta, along with her husband Eric, has taught Desert Stream Ministries’ Living Waters program for several years. Marta also has a considerable, online following within the Cuban-American community with her blog, “My Big Fat Cuban Family”. The pair have been associated with the Vineyard Christian Church in Orange County, CA for over 30 years.

 The friends look back on how they met and came to be involved in healing ministry together…both with Desert Stream and Embracing Life Ministries. 

A good portion of the podcast focusses on the profound impact Marta’s near-death Covid hospitalization had on their family, and the daily battle they were forced to wage against the spirit of death and all its various manifestations.
