  • Don't Call It Failure

    In this heartfelt episode, Kathy reflects on a season when she was asked to step into a leadership role—and the surprising reaction that followed. It stirred up old feelings of failure… but also reminded her of God’s truth: He doesn’t waste anything.

    Whether you’ve started something and stepped away, or stayed in a role longer than God intended, this message is for you. God works in seasons, and His timing—not ours—is perfect. Be encouraged to release the shame, recognize the growth, and rest in the truth that nothing you’ve walked through is beyond His redeeming grace.

    🤍 A gentle reminder that obedience isn’t about perfection—it’s about surrender.

  • When We Slip: A Lesson in Meekness and Grace

    We don’t talk about meekness enough—but it’s such a powerful, Christlike trait. In this episode of The Redeemed Mess, I share a raw and honest moment when I fell short… and how God reminded me of His grace. I don’t want to take that grace for granted—and maybe you feel the same. If you’ve ever wrestled with shame after slipping up, this one’s for you. Let’s walk this road of spiritual growth together—one step, one prayer, one surrender at a time. 🤍

  • You Don’t Have to Do Something Grand to Be Used by God

    In this episode of The Redeemed Mess, Kathy shares a heartfelt reminder for anyone feeling unsure about their calling or purpose: you don’t have to do something big or flashy to be used by God. Sometimes, the most powerful ministry happens in the quiet, ordinary moments of life. From folding laundry to encouraging a friend, every small act done in love matters deeply to the Lord.

    If you’ve been wondering if you’re doing “enough,” this episode is for you. Kathy encourages us to stop striving, embrace peace, and trust that maybe—just maybe—God is already using us right where we are.

    ✨ Faithfulness over flashiness.
    🤍 Simplicity over striving.
    🎙️ Tune in and be encouraged.

  • The Battle With Resentment

    In this heartfelt episode of The Redeemed Mess, Kathy shares a vulnerable moment about choosing not to attend a family event involving her husband's side of the family—and how that decision stirred up old feelings of resentment. With honesty and grace, she reflects on what it means to surrender those hidden heart struggles to Jesus, support a spouse through differences, and walk in emotional and spiritual freedom.

  • The Gift—and Growth—of Friendship

    Friendship is a beautiful blessing—but it’s also messy at times. In this heartfelt episode of The Redeemed Mess, Kathy opens up about the many kinds of friendships she's experienced over the years: the faithful ones, the seasonal ones, and the ones that left her feeling drained or hurt.

    From one-sided relationships to church friends who vanished once she walked away, Kathy shares honest reflections on how to recognize unhealthy dynamics and what red flags to watch for. Drawing wisdom from Lysa TerKeurst’s books on boundaries and trust, this episode offers encouragement, truth, and hope for anyone walking through a season of friendship evaluation.

    Not every relationship is meant to last forever—and that’s okay.
    God uses every connection to teach us something, and He always provides the friends who reflect His heart.

    🤍 Take what you need. Leave the rest. Be blessed.

    Welcome to The Redeemed Mess. I’m Kathy—and on this podcast, I talk about the messiness of life and how Jesus, in His grace and mercy, redeems every part of it. Whether you’re walking through hard seasons, searching for hope, or just need a gentle reminder of God’s faithfulness, you’re in the right place. Let’s dive into today’s episode.

  • When Prayer Takes Time: Trusting God’s Perfect Timing

    Prayer is powerful—but sometimes, the answers don’t come quickly. In this episode, I share two deeply personal prayers I carried for years. One took four years. The other, three. And just in the past few months, I’ve seen God answer them in ways that still leave me in awe.

    But what truly stands out isn’t just that He answered—it’s when. His timing was not my own, and through the waiting, I learned a deeper trust in His wisdom and love.

    If you're in a season of waiting—praying for healing, for salvation, for transformation—this episode is for you. Let’s talk about surrendering those burdens into God’s hands, trusting Him with the outcome, and remembering this: your prayers are never wasted.

  • When Plans Go Sideways: A Lesson in Acceptance

    What do you do when your day doesn’t go as planned? In this episode of The Redeemed Mess, I share a recent story that could’ve left me flustered, frustrated, and fuming. But instead, it turned into a sweet reminder of just how powerful acceptance can be.

    I open up about a simple morning mix-up that reminded me how far I’ve come in learning to let go, stay calm, and trust that God is in control—even when I’m not. I also share one of my favorite quotes from the Big Book of AA that has helped shape my perspective on peace and surrender.

    I’m not perfect at this, friend. I still have days where I spiral or stress. But this story? It reminded me that grace and growth are still happening—even in the messy, mundane moments of life.

    If you’ve ever had a plan go sideways (and who hasn’t?), this episode is for you.

  • There Will Be a Day: Trusting Jesus Through Emotional Pain

    In this episode, I reflect on a powerful worship song that reminded me of the promise that one day—there will be no more tears, no more suffering. As I prayed for my children and gave thanks for all God has done, I felt the weight of emotional pain that we often try to avoid. But it’s through Jesus that we find the strength to face each day. He carries our burdens, knows our hearts, and loves us—and our children—more than we can imagine. Join me for this gentle reminder of hope, trust, and eternal comfort.#FaithThroughThePain, #JesusHealsHearts, #HopeInChrist
