Faith-Fully Podcast

My conversation with my friend Sydney is one that will encourage you to continue standing strong in your faith.  Especially during this time in quarantine.  She takes us through her story of what it was like to be on bed rest for 80 days during her pregnancy with Jonah and how through it all God sustained her.

Today my guest is Julie Malin.  She is my dear friend who is what I would call a "sister-friend".   Julie is the South Texas Director for Heroes for Children which is a nonprofit here in Houston as well Austin, TX, and Dallas, TX.  Today Julie will share her story about how she fell in love with nonprofit at a young age and how that has impacted her love for HFC and the work that they are doing to help families that are battling cancer.  We will also discuss life in quarantine and living with and caring for rabbits and dogs and horses, "Oh My"  Julie will share her story of open-heart surgery as well as adoption.  You are going to be moved, inspired and blessed when you hear her story.  I am so glad you are here and are part of the conversation.

Hey friends, welcome back to the faith-fully podcast.  We are in the "Quarantine Talks" series and today's episode is one that will not disappoint.  My very funny and full of Joy friend Jennifer Dennis is my guest on today's show.

Jennifer is a believer in Jesus! She is the kidstuf director for West U Baptist and Crosspoint Church in Bellaire, Texas.  She is married to Andy Dennis, who is the student minister at Rice University. She is also mom to her daughter Olivia, who is a soon to be 14 years old who Jennifer says has thankfully inherited her dry wit from her father.

I know yall are going to enjoy our conversation today.  Jennifer is a hoot!  We laugh and talk about hugs, Netflix, Candy Crush, the news and 2-minute interviews on being mindful.  We will discuss how as a children's minister what it looks like to connect with children and families during quarantine and how online ministry has been a new way to connect.  She will also share about her faith and how God is more than enough.  There is so much more so yall are in for a treat! 

As always, thanks for tuning in!  

If you are enjoying my podcast and this series, please share, follow and leave a review.  

I hope everyone is doing well and is healthy!  We will get through this!  I am praying that you and your loved ones are having a Happy and Healthy Holy Week! Happy Easter!

On this episode, Hope talks to Kim Falconer who is a friend and WW Coach (formerly known as Weight Watchers).  Kim and her husband David have been married for almost 21 years.  They have 3 daughters who are all in the performing arts and have 2 dogs, ZuZu and Olive.  Kim is also the mom to, as she calls her "A little angel baby in heaven.".   Kim shares her story about accepting Jesus at 15 years old and at the same time being a teen mom to her "angel baby" who was born with a genetic syndrome called Trisomy 18.  At that time she shares how she pulled away from the church because she couldn't bare that her community didn't feel like her faith was genuine.  Not to put blame on the church but this was rather a lie that she told herself.  We will also dive into how she and David met and how her faith in Jesus became real.  We also chat about life in quarantine, WW, family fun with theme nights known as Quaran Queen Super Club and how her faith has kept her going.  And to wrap it up, I also ask the question, "Who are you listening to?"  I know you are going to enjoy my conversation with Kim.  I am so glad you are here and are part of the conversation.

Walking In Faith,

Hope

Hey Guys, I was given a challenge from our Pastor of my church to share my faith and how I came to know Jesus Christ. So I wanted to be faithful to that challenge and share my story.
