The Dick Buttons Interviews - Jenna Summers

On this powerful episode of *The Dick Buttons Interviews*, Dick sits down with author, speaker, humanitarian, international flight attendant, translator, and former missionary Mama Jenna for a conversation that is as inspiring as it is unforgettable. For more than 25 years, Jenna dedicated her life to serving others throughout Africa, working in remote villages, refugee camps, and regions devastated by war, poverty, and hardship. Along the way, she witnessed both the worst and the best of humanity, experiences that would forever shape her perspective on life, faith, and purpose. But Mama Jenna's story is not just about the people she helped. It is also about the incredible challenges she overcame herself. Having survived severe childhood abuse, PTSD, and a brutal attack in which she was stabbed multiple times while pregnant, Jenna's journey is one of extraordinary resilience. Against overwhelming odds, both she and her unborn child survived. Rather than allowing those experiences to define her, she chose a path of forgiveness, healing, and faith. Dick and Mama Jenna dive deep into her remarkable life story, her years of missionary work, the lessons she learned from serving others, and the message behind her memoir, *Mama Jennifer*. Together, they explore what it means to overcome adversity, find strength in the darkest moments, and transform pain into purpose. This is more than an interview. It's a testament to the power of faith, perseverance, forgiveness, and the indomitable human spirit.I f you've ever struggled through difficult times, searched for hope, or wondered how someone can rise above unimaginable challenges and emerge stronger than ever, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
