For The Girl

How Radical Faith Led to 200 High Schoolers in Her Living Room | Courtney Slovenski


Listen Later

In this episode, we sit down with one of Kenz's oldest and dearest friends, Courtney Slavinski — the girl who literally led her to Jesus! From swing dancing to homeschooling four kids, Courtney shares how saying a simple yes to the Holy Spirit turned into hosting 200+ high school students in her living room every week. Yep, you read that right. She and her husband Steve started Waygo Youth — a grassroots movement that’s discipling teens in radical, Spirit-filled ways right from their home. We talk motherhood, ministry, marriage, and what it really looks like to live a life fully surrendered to Jesus. Prepare to be convicted, encouraged, and fired up to live on mission — wherever God has you!
