The Plans He Has for Me

Rose Ann Forte pt 1

Alcohol is something that will make you do things you thought you would never do; take you places you thought you would never go and then keep you there longer than you thought you would stay…

I know. I was a functioning alcoholic for about 25 years. But for God and His deliverance. It’s now been over 30 years of living a great life alcohol free. Praise God.

Our guest today has also struggled with alcohol and found herself in a place where she did not want to be.  But for God and His deliverance. Amen!

Rose Ann Forte was a “C Suite Executive” and a ministry leader in her church. She was also a working mom and had the casual social drink along the way. But over the years, the problems of a difficult marriage and stresses of life caused her health and emotional wellbeing to be challenged. After the collapse of her marriage, her drinking further escalated and she felt like a fraud at church. But, during the COVID lockdowns, she realized what was happening, and what alcohol had stolen from her life and decided to make a change, with God’s help. Amen!

Rose accepted a call to document what she learned and is the author of “The Plans He Has for Me: A Twelve Week Daily Devotional for Freedom from Alcohol,” which is available on Amazon. She also has a coaching program to help you titled, “Say Goodbye to Alcohol Coaching Program.”  She is also a podcaster! Praise God!  Her podcast is called, “Say Goodbye and Imagine!”

Help me welcome to the program, Rose Ann Forte!

First question I always ask is this. Other than that brief information I shared, can you tell us in your words, “Who is Rose Ann Forte?”

I know you’ve shared with me that you started out social drinking. Me too. How did that begin to grow into something more?

You share that the COVID lockdowns is when you realized there was a problem. What triggered that realization?

Did you quit cold turkey or was it a process?

I urge you, drop down into the show notes and reach out to Rose Ann Forte, right now. Right NOW, while you are thinking about it. Just take that very first step and she will be able to provide you with information on the second step. And the third step.

If you don’t want to go all in on the coaching, order her book. Put the information in your hands right now! Amen!  You need to get this book! If not for yourself, I know… I KNOW – you know someone who needs this information. Amen!

Order two or three copies. Provide one to your church or your pastor. He can use it as a resource when he is providing counseling to someone in this area. Amen!

Be that type of Blessing to others! Even other you may never meet!

But if we have hit a nerve today and you feel like the Holy Spirit has been talking to YOU… I urge you to take that next step and get in touch with Rose Ann Forte today. Amen!

About the Podcast

Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast
Interviews with influential Christian ministry and business leaders / owners, authors & musicians & prophecy experts, too!
Pastor Robert Thibodeau interviews Christian guests that range from pastors and ministers to Christian authors; Christian musicians and singers to Christian businessmen and businesswomen who are running impactful businesses while maintaining the Christian morals and values. Each podcast is approximately 28-35 minutes in length (give or take a few minutes). This is an interview based podcast that will often dig deep into the beliefs of the guest being interviewed. We recently published our 1600th Episode (with over 1100 individual interviews) and have been ranked by "Listen Notes" (the "Nielsen Ratings" of Podcasts) in the TOP 1/2% of ALL podcasts worldwide (2.7million +)! So your interviews will be heard!

We always appreciate our partners in helping us to "Get The Word Out!" into all the earth! I pray for our partners every single day. I humbly ask that you would consider sending along any offering of support for this work of God. If every person would commit to just $1 per month - you would be amazed at how fast that will multiply and allow us to have even more impact! And...there are NO SALARIES taken from any offerings sent in. It all goes to Kingdom work! Amen! Click the link for "support" that you see - and God Bless You for your support!

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
