His Faithfulness

Join Jeanelle as she reflects on her life-changing mission trip to Costa Rica, where faith met service, and gratitude reshaped perspective. Rooted in Philippians 3:8—“Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord”—this heartfelt podcast chronicles her experiences living with a widowed host, overcoming language barriers, leading youth ministries, and serving in unexpected ways.

Each episode invites you into the raw and beautiful moments where God showed up—in the love of a stranger, the unity of a team, the joy of service, and the power of unspoken connection. As Jeanelle prepares to return home, she shares the lessons God taught her about humility, contentment, and pursuing Him with the same passion in everyday life.

Whether you’ve been on a mission trip or are simply seeking a deeper walk with Christ, this podcast will inspire you to love well, serve boldly, and be faithful—even in the little things.

In this powerful journal-style episode, we hear from Jeanelle, a young missionary in Costa Rica, as she reflects on service, surrender, and the supernatural love of God.

As she prepares to embark on a week-long mission trip, Jeanelle opens her heart about her weekly routines on the mission grounds—like “Service Day,” where every student contributes to maintaining the land they live on. But what stands out most is her deeply personal journey: choosing not to return for another semester despite finding a second home among the students and staff, visiting a men’s rehab center where language didn’t stop connection, and learning one of the hardest lessons—it’s not her job to fix others, only to love them like Jesus.

Raw and full of spiritual insight, Jeanelle unpacks what it means to rely on God’s love instead of her own strength, and how being separated from her family—especially her sister—has stirred unexpected emotions and dependence on God’s peace.

This is a beautiful, honest reminder that men cannot produce righteousness any more than a lamp can shine without oil. We must stay filled, fueled, and fully dependent on the Lord of abundance.

Listen in and be encouraged—and don’t forget to share this with someone who needs to be reminded of God’s never-ending grace.

In this episode I’ll discuss intimacy with Christ.
