A Daughter’s Journey in Faith is a quiet exploration of faith, scripture, and life through the sermons of a small-town minister.
After her father, Kim Wilson, passed away in 2024, Jennie began reading the sermons he wrote and delivered to a small church in Iowa. What began as a way to help the congregation continue hearing his messages soon became something more personal — an invitation to explore her own faith.
In each episode, Jennie reads the scripture and sermon her father wrote, followed by a short reflection on what stands out to her as she continues her own journey in faith.
This podcast isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about asking questions, noticing themes, and discovering what faith might look like in everyday life.
If you’re searching, curious, or simply looking for a few quiet minutes of reflection, you’re welcome to walk this journey too. Join me on Facebook at A Daughter's Journey in Faith page - facebook.com/ADaughtersJourneyInFaith
S3E6 When Faith Cannot Stay Quiet: A Hard Secret to Keep
In A Hard Secret to Keep, my father wrestles with one of the more difficult encounters in the Gospel of Mark—the story of a Gentile woman who refuses to stop asking Jesus to help her daughter.
What emerges from that difficult passage is a message about the extraordinary reach of Christ’s compassion. As Dad says, “No one is left out of God’s kingdom. We are all welcome.”
His words lead me back into my own journey of faith and to something life and my work have taught me over time: we rarely know the whole story behind another person’s behavior. Understanding someone’s circumstances doesn’t mean excusing their choices. But sometimes it allows us to replace contempt with compassion.
In this episode, I reflect on the people we find difficult to understand, the difference a few words of kindness can make, and my father’s reminder that Jesus came not simply to heal bodies, but to heal our souls.
Who in your life might need a little more compassion this week?

S3E5 When God's Way Challenges Ours: Our Law, His Law
What happens when the traditions and outward signs of our faith become more important than faith itself?
In Our Law, His Law, my dad reflects on Jesus' confrontation with the Pharisees over something seemingly simple: washing hands before a meal. But beneath their disagreement was a much deeper question about what it truly means to be faithful.
My dad reminds us that faith is not found in rituals, appearances, buildings, traditions, or even the good works other people can see. Genuine faith begins in the heart—and when our hearts are centered on Christ, acts of love and service naturally follow.
In my reflections, I think about family traditions that needed to change, what hypocrisy can look like in everyday life, and the difference between doing good so others will notice and serving others because faith and love are already within us.
This week's episode asks us to look beyond the outward signs and consider a more personal question:
Where is my heart?

S3E4: Standing Firm in Faith: The Whole Armor of God
The Armor of God isn't just about protection—it's about how we choose to live.
In this episode of A Daughter's Journey in Faith, we explore Paul's powerful words in Ephesians 6 and my father's sermon, The Whole Armor of God. But instead of focusing only on the familiar pieces of armor, he reminds us what our real battle actually is.
Our greatest struggle isn't against people who disagree with us. It's against the forces that tempt us toward hatred, pride, fear, and division.
As I reflect on his words, I think about what I witness every day in the courtroom and how desperately our world still needs truth, righteousness, peace, faith, and prayer.
Perhaps putting on the full armor of God begins with choosing to see one another as children of God.
