October 28, 2025 Bonus Episode | my church involvement as mom to 4, ministry burnout, marrying a pastor and more
I should note! My love for local church life was also impacted by the example of the family I nannied for. They were super dedicated to their church ministries, church family and outreach strategies at the cost of time and finances and more for the sake of God’s kingdom work! It was a simple, humble thing I witnessed; it was an incredibly impactful thing to witness.
Also, the discipleship resources I mention in this episode:
