This week, we heard from Owen Smith, a husband, father, teacher, and follower of Jesus, who shared how God’s steady grace has shaped his life.

Owen’s story isn’t one of dramatic turns, but of faithful consistency. From growing up in rural Kentucky to teaching at Collins High School, he’s seen how God’s hand has guided him through seasons of waiting, purpose, and growth.

He reminds us that sometimes the greatest testimony is a “boring” one, a life that never wandered far because God never let go. Now, Owen and his wife Madeline are raising their four boys to live differently, to find belonging in Christ rather than in the comfort and conformity of the world.

His story challenges us all to ask: Where might God be calling me to stand out rather than fit in?
