Have you ever walked through difficult circumstances and found that it really grew your faith? Not only did it grow your faith, but it grew your trust and dependence on God?

I am excited to introduce my second special mom story. Jennifer Perez shares her foster to adopt story and walking through the years of infertility. She also vulnerably tells her miraculous pregnancy story which sadly did not end as she hoped. But God used it to birth her ministry, to help and encourage other moms. Through all these hard circumstances, her faith deepened in ways she never knew possible. I cannot wait for you to hear the wisdom she shares on the podcast.

Jennifer also wrote a devotional called She Laughs: A 40-Day Journey to a Heart Filled with Joy and Peace.  Based on the verse in Proverbs 31:25, this woman “is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.” Jennifer explains that because this woman has a confidence in her God, she is not consumed by stress and worry. It is a great devotional.
