The Podcast: Blueprints to Strengthen Your Faith & Family

Find the podcast at the following:

Every woman can make a difference for good and for God in their homes and their communities, but in a culture whose moral compass is upside-down it can be confusing to know what lines up with biblical truth. Through this podcast, my desire is to help women in their faith walk learn how to build on that faith and lead their family well by equipping them with information and inspiration. Join me as I interview guests who have faced their own struggles with faith and family as well as those who share practical tips to strengthen godly homes. My prayer is for these episodes to inspire and equip listeners with a blueprint that will cause women to rise up, bless their families and those in their sphere of influence, so that they can change stories of families for a thousand generations.

This week I'm interviewing a delightful guest from merry old England, Adeline St. John. Adeline and I met in 2016 when she reached out to me via Messenger and told me she was my husband's cousin. She shares how her dad found out at the age of 12 his father wasn't who his mom had always told him he was and the 60 year journey of dead-end leads that finally paid off and led to the confirmation that he'd finally found his real father. Their story highlights the importance of knowing our family history and legacy in order for us to have a real sense of belonging.

One of the reasons I felt called to start this podcast was because of stories like Donovan and Lavonna Garrett's. If you don't believe God can make a difference in your marriage and family then you need to listen to the testimony of how Donovan's alcohol abuse almost destroyed him, his marriage and his entire family. As I look at the photos of their beautiful family today, I'm in tears, knowing that if Donovan hadn't surrendered his life to Christ, their story would have had a much different outcome. No, they aren't perfect, as none of us are, but they have so much joy radiating from them because of what God has done. If you or someone you love is struggling with alcohol, I promise this episode will encourage and give you hope.

Today I’m excited to introduce you to my newest friend, Jennifer Deese. Because Jennifer loves Christmas and all of the holiday traditions that go with it, I invited her to share some of her favorite traditions that we hope you’ll want to add to your own this year. She’s been through some tough times in her life, which is why these long-standing traditions are even more dear to her and her family. They provided stability for her kids during those difficult years. I know you’ll be blessed by our conversation.

My guests for this first podcast episode are my two very best friends, Julie Bagwell and Frieda Younts. We’ve been friends for 26 years! Over time we’ve experienced lots of ups and downs but have remained close through it all. How did we do it? By being honest and real with each other, for one thing, but mostly by building our friendship on the foundation of Jesus Christ. In this episode we talk about how hurts and jealousy, especially in a group with three friends, can be easy to fall into. But instead of letting them fester we bring it out in the open and talk about these things in the spirit of love. A friendship is work, but it’s so worth the reward.
