What if discernment isn’t about slowing down—but about moving at the right pace with God?

In this deeply personal and powerful episode of Orderly, Becky Crawley is joined by her cousin, close friend, and missionary, Mary Jane Stewart. Together, they reflect on a pivotal season when both found themselves at major life crossroads—facing uncertainty, risk, and the need to trust God in ways that would shape their futures.

Mary Jane shares her journey from a post-high school mission with YWAM to building a life and family on the mission field in South Africa. She gives an inside look at the realities women are facing in rural communities—and how God is moving in profound ways through her work. As she steps into a new season of deeper commitment through her initiative, Woven, the stakes—and the faith required—are higher than ever.

Becky and MJ anchor their conversation in the story of Abigail (1 Samuel 25), a woman whose discernment, courage, and swift action not only saved her household—but also protected David from making a devastating mistake. Together, they explore what it means to:

Recognize when God is calling you to act quickly

Build your “risk muscle” over time

Step into obedience without knowing the outcome

Use discernment to protect others—and yourself—from harm

This episode is both an invitation and a challenge: to live with greater awareness, courage, and alignment with God’s voice.

You’ll also hear practical ways to support MJ’s mission, including sharing this episode, giving financially, and partnering in prayer.

Because sometimes, the most orderly life isn’t the safest one—it’s the one fully surrendered to God.
