Finding Jesus In The Mess

The fastest way to lose your peace is to believe you can only find God when your house is quiet and your to do list is done. We sit down with our friend Justine Bellard, our constant “faith friend,” to talk about the opposite approach: finding Jesus in everyday life, especially in the mess. Laundry baskets, dishes, cluttered counters, carpools, and the tired stretch of late afternoon can feel like spiritual dead zones, but we share simple ways to turn them into moments of prayer, gratitude, and steadiness. 

Justine introduces a practice that changed the way we see our days: “joy hunting.” It’s intentional, it’s practical, and it works even when you’re stressed. We talk about noticing the tiny things that bring real joy, like a sunset, flowers on a walk, a drink you love, a thrift-store treasure, or that rare moment when the sink is empty. We also explore how kids naturally spot beauty adults overlook, and how their wonder can pull us back into presence when we’re stuck in survival mode. 

Then we get super tactical with prayer for busy moms. Justine shares how she uses AirPods, rosaries, chaplets, and short messages to pray while folding clothes or washing dishes, and even dedicates specific laundry items to specific prayer intentions. We also talk about praying over your family’s protection, your kids’ future friends and teachers, and the kind of faith that shows up in everyday choices. If you want practical Christian encouragement, a realistic daily prayer rhythm, and a fresh way to find peace in chaos, this conversation is for you.
