    A Pack of Diapers with a Side of Jesus: Adventures in Faith and Family

    In this heartfelt episode, I sit down with Holly, the founder of Psalm 139 Ministries — a powerful local ministry serving families in real need, starting with something often overlooked but deeply essential: diapers. We talk about how government assistance doesn’t cover diapers or wipes, and how Holly — a mom of four girls with a heart for serving — turned a dream she held for over a decade into a living, breathing mission in her community.  This episode is full of honest reflections on faith, family, and obedience, even when the timeline doesn’t match your expectations. Holly opens up about how slow progress doesn’t mean no progress, and how trusting God's timing has been key to her journey. She also shares her BIG dream for the future — a home for young moms who need support, safety, and a solid start. It's bold. It's beautiful. And it’s just the beginning. Later in the episode, we shift gears and talk about how adventure looks in this season of life — with four young daughters in tow — and why local road trips, snacks, and trips like Dinosaur World matter more than flashy vacations right now. You’ll leave inspired to find the bold route in your own backyard. What You’ll Learn : What it looks like to hold onto a dream Discernment for hearing when God’s calling you to wait vs. when He's telling you to moveThe role of supportive marriage and teamwork in pursuing bold callingsHolly’s long-term dream of building a home for young mothers in crisisWhat living boldly in your current season really looks like with young kidsTips for road-tripping with little ones (turning pit stops into part of the adventure!)Why volunteering can remind you what really mattersA powerful reminder to be still, be present, and listen for God’s voice💕 Ways to Give to Psalm 139 Ministry Items Accepted: Diapers WipesAdult briefs and incontinence pads (All sizes and brands accepted!)
