🎙️ Crumb Confessional — Episode 49a
Title: We didn’t even say Jesus once
Description:
It’s 4:16 AM on June 30, and I’m walking alone through my parents’ neighborhood, still processing the family party we hosted yesterday. We shared our Mercy Ships journey with over 40 relatives—but something’s bothering me. We never mentioned Jesus. I wrestle with whether people truly understood the why behind what we’re doing, and how to balance bold testimony with quiet faithfulness. I pray through the tension, the missed moments, and the deeper call to live—and speak—for God.
I talk about:
- What I noticed while presenting to 40+ family members
- How much has really happened in our Mercy Ships journey
- Regret over not explicitly mentioning Jesus or Mercy Ships’ mission
- A missed opportunity at church and lingering disconnection
- How to discern when and how to share what God is doing
- The tension between platform and humility
- A raw prayer surrendering all results to God
đź’ˇ Highlights & Timestamps:
00:00 – Early morning walk after the family party
03:45 – Realizing we didn’t mention Jesus once in the presentation
08:30 – Wrestling with “do-gooder” perception vs. gospel reality
12:10 – Missed opportunity at church for the kids and for testimony
16:50 – Should we share more publicly or let our life speak for itself?
22:00 – Stories of miracles and seeds planted through Mercy Ships
30:30 – A prayer of full surrender over missed moments and future fruit
đź“– Scriptures Referenced:
Luke 10:19 – “I have given you authority…”
Romans 10:14 – “How will they hear without someone preaching to them?”
Romans 8:26 – “The Spirit Himself intercedes… with groanings too deep for words”
🧠Core Takeaway:
Sometimes the greatest gift we can give is simply telling the truth about what God is doing—boldly, humbly, and in His timing.
🙏 Closing Line:
Crumb Confessional #49a — I offer up everything we’re doing, everything we’re not doing—everything, Lord—is yours.
