Episode 15 When God writes a different story.

TodayI’m joined by a father and daughter duo — Kenneth and Meghan — and I’m so excited for you to hear their story. For years, Meghan and her husband Jason prayed for a child. Like many couples, their journey included tests, treatments, disappointment, heartbreak, and even miscarriage. And after years of waiting and praying, they finally felt God gently leading them toward adoption.

Episode 13 Caregiving changes everything—your time, your energy, your plans… and often, your heart.

In this powerful episode of Manna-Festations, we sit down with Camille—a successful businesswoman, wife, and mother—who spent over a decade helping care for her mother, Sara, after she was diagnosed with aphasia. What began as support became a full-life calling, as Camille and her husband Tom built a home designed to care for both of her parents. From doctor’s appointments and daily needs to the emotional weight of watching her mom slowly lose the ability to communicate, Camille shares what it really looks like to walk through long-term caregiving. Through it all, her faith in Jesus, the strength of her family, and the support of her church carried her—day by day. Now, on the other side of that season, Camille finds herself stepping into a new role—supporting her own daughter, a young widow raising two small children. Once again, she leans on God for strength, purpose, and peace. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, stretched thin, or unsure how to keep going—this conversation will remind you that you are not alone… and God is present in every step.
