Real Jesus with Natalie Burdick

How do you give ten percent when you’re already struggling to make ends meet? In this episode, I share why I still tithe when money is tight, what the Bible says about giving, and personal stories of how God provided when I couldn’t see a way. Let’s talk honestly about faith, finances, and trusting God in this economy.

Have you been hurt by the church? In this episode, I share my story and how God brought beauty from the ashes. Their actions weren’t Jesus’ actions and the way they treated you doesn’t reflect His love for you.

What do you do when you’ve been praying and moving forward, but healing still doesn’t feel like progress?

In Episode 3 of Real Jesus, I share how journaling helped me through my divorce. The prayers and feelings I wrote down eventually showed me how far God had brought me, even when I didn’t feel like I was getting better.

We’ll talk about bringing your honest heart to God, recognizing progress, and taking practical steps forward. At the end, I also explain how you can know Jesus and be saved.

What happens after you surrender your life to Jesus, but your circumstances don’t immediately change?

In Episode 2 of my redemption story, I share what happened after my divorce, when I was learning how to raise my girls, rebuild my life, and follow Jesus in the middle of the mess. I talk about setting hard boundaries, choosing the Spirit over my flesh, and discovering that surrender isn’t only one big prayer. It’s trusting God through one faithful decision at a time.

This episode may include part of my journey as a single mother, but it’s for anyone walking through a painful or unexpected season. Whether your ministry is your children, your coworkers, your friends, or the people God has placed in front of you, Jesus will meet you right where you are and show you how to take the next step.

Welcome back to Real Jesus with Natalie Burdick. Real stories, real struggles, and the real Jesus who meets us in the middle.

In the first episode of Real Jesus, I'm sharing my story of a marriage affected by addiction, an affair, and heartbreak and how Jesus met me in the middle of it all. If you're walking through betrayal, shame, or a painful season, I hope my story reminds you that Jesus meets us in real life and that your story isn't over.

Have you ever felt like you couldn’t go to Jesus because your life was too messy or pulled away from Him because you were embarrassed by what you were going through?

Real Jesus with Natalie Burdick is a podcast about real stories, real struggles, and the real Jesus who meets us right in the middle. We’ll have honest conversations about marriage, family, heartbreak, healing, unanswered prayers, new beginnings, and what it actually looks like to follow Jesus through everyday life.

You don’t need a perfect life or all the right answers. Jesus will meet you right where you are.
